Aleksandrakv
I was thinking how much I love Adam's songs. There are fans who love him and his voice, but they keep criticizing his music. I.LOVE.HIS.SONGS! So this show was also great for that - to show me that I would trade a two-hour long Queen concert for Adam's show in a blink of an eye, any time of day.
After the fabulous Queenbert #1 Kiev concert yesterday, I had songs from "Trespassing" going through my head. ILHSM!

Thanks! Adam is not playing with them I assume? I can't believe there isn't a chance... After all, he's been adopted by two much loved Brits... : I think the Olympic committee books Queen. Queen is English. The Olympic committee can't tell them what lead singer to use! JMHO!! However, I can see them doing one song, "We Are the Champions" and just having all the English artists that are already there do it as a group sing along with the athletes. In that case, they don't need an Adam Lambert!

Sorry Aleksandrakv, I was trying to quote you earlier (because what you said was so perfect) but I'm not a good "poster" (just a great "lurker").

ultimateclassicrock.com/queen-rock-kiev-with-adam-lambert/QUEEN ROCK KIEV WITH ADAM LAMBERT Queen are back in the saddle. The band, which first dealt with the loss of Freddie Mercury first by teaming with Paul Rodgers, returned to the stage Saturday (June 30) in Kiev as part of the ANTIAIDS benefit with Adam Lambert in the fold. Ever since Lambert’s ‘American Idol’ breakout, there’s been the question of whether or not he’d entertain playing with Queen and, at least for now, he’s enjoying the opportunity. Saturday’s set opened with the intro to ‘Flash Gordon,’ followed by the deeper cut ‘Seven Seas of Rhye,’ before transitioning into such classics as ‘Keep Yourself Alive,’ ‘We Will Rock You,’ and ‘Fat Bottomed Girls.’ more

Neon Limelight @neonlimelight Video: Adam Lambert Royally Rocks Kiev With Queen neonlimelight.com/2012/07/01/video-adam-lambert-royally-rocks-kiev-with-queen/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+NeonLimelight+%28%2F%2FNeon+Limelight%2F%2F%29Video: Adam Lambert Royally Rocks Kiev With Queen Adam Lambert kicked off his summer tour as the frontman for the legendary rock band Queen last night (June 30) with a performance in front of hundreds of thousands in Kiev, Ukraine. Considering the enormity of the task he faced — filling in for the one and only Freddie Mercury for a complete concert set for the first time — Adam really did an impressive job. He commanded the stage like a seasoned pro and rocked some of Queen’s most enduring classics, like “Under Pressure,” “Another One Bites The Dust,” “Radio GaGa,” “Somebody To Love,” “The Show Must Go On,” “Bohemian Rhapsody” (a sort of duet with old footage of Freddie), “We Will Rock You,” and “We Are The Champions.” It’s easy to see why Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen are so fond of Adam. He really did Freddie proud, all while showing off those royal pipes that are so signature Glambert.more

Have to say this ...
Freddie's death is a big tragedy for the band Queen. Legendary singer and performer dying in the middle of everything, the band's very productive stage. True tragedy.
And that's why they had the concert last night, wonderfully orchestrated concert for fighting AIDS, so people wouldn't die for this desease as Freddie's tragedy is an example. It was so to the point last night as it could have been.
And then there is Adam, gay and very much alive and in the beginning of his career. That's what happens, when people die of AIDS, they no longer exist, being a legend or not won't help staying alive. The message of the whole concert was delivered well.
Wonderful how Elton John's Foundation and his efforts are in action today.
Really was teary many many times last night, and not only because of Adam's singing.
