Cassie, give me a minute and I will make it for you -- MP3 or MP4? Bless you! Don't know the difference, but I guess the one that would be faster to download? Just the audio portion. Video is too large. Just sent you the audio file link.

I have not caught up on the threads as yet and don't know if this was discussed but I have an observation (and I'm not trying to mean).
The young man (Victor, I believe?) who shared the stage during WWRY? Enjoyed his energy a lot. However, he made me realize just how hard Freddie's songs are to sing. So glad the young man had a blast up there, though. Nice touch.

llll @technopall @milestougeaux I think the entire world is glad @adamlambert wasn't good at math. He was born to rock the world. Trespassing Retweeted by Miles Tougeaux Shhh...let's not tell astrophysicist, Dr. Brian May, that he shouldn't be able to rock the world. ;D Speaking of whom, I've watched that guitar solo more than a few times. It's like hearing an artist play three dimensional chess with the cosmos, using the musical equivalent of quantum physics. I think there's one good reason that most scientists don't make the best artists - left-brain dominants aren't often artistically creative. And vice versa. Brian has fabulous access to both hemispheres. It's a fascinating and rare opportunity to watch him as he creates art. I was also contemplating how three of my favorite songs from yesterday's set were written by Brian: "Who Wants to Live Forever," "The Show Must Go On," and "I Want it All." Brian May is a passable vocalist in his own right, but obviously he doesn't have the range to sing at least the first two of those songs himself. Brian wrote those songs for Freddie Mercury's voice. And Brian doesn't have the muscular swagger vocally to sing "I Want it All" as he understood Freddie could do. This by way of saying, since a few others are expressing their fantasy outcomes of this Queen + Adam Lambert collaboration, here's one of mine. In my opinion, Brian May has a singularly unique history of being able to write songs that fit and understand a voice such as Adam Lambert's like a custom-tailored SkinGraft suit. Yeah, I ship it. I've fallen down the rabbit hole so many times yesterday and today with such a constant huge smile that my face hurts. I feel so lucky to have lived in a time where two such vocalists as Freddie Mercury and Adam Lambert gave us their incredible performances. That some of those performances are of the same music astonishes me. The universe is stranger than we will ever understand, and I love it. Actually, I love everything and everybody today, including all of you ATOPers. This is better than Ecstasy!

Can anyone match the over ripe unctuous beauty of Mr. Lambert? He never hesitates to play all his cards, with a singular abandon, as an homage to his self-conception. No one since Elizabeth Taylor, in the Hollywood adaptation of John O'Hara's Butterfield 8, has there been anything like him, of either sex. Bowie was too angular and emaciated but still very appealing as elegant, epicene self-creation. But Adam is voluptious and utterly over the top and his self-knowledge is part of the exhilarating game. Jim Morrison was too addicted to his masculinity and playing to all those nubile girls, those child/women destined for seduction." Truly yours, Myra Breckenridge P.S. Look it all up on Wikipedia Holy cats, that's a thing of exquisite beauty! Whoever wrote it is another kind of artist. He or she should follow Adam around and write concert reviews for him.
