Hi all. Quick background, I am a Queen fan. I did enjoy watching AL on Idol. I did get FYE and Trespassing and saw him in concert while on tour. I'm almost scared to admit on this board that I'm not a fanatic. I enjoyed FYE. I liked him in concert. I was NOT a big fan of Trespassing... I AM a Queen fanatic though. I thought they might be a good mix. And after seeing both shows I do think while not a home run, it is a fun show and I would definitely go see it if it came to the US. I realize some hardcore Queen purists feel it is vomit inducing. I also think some "glamberts" are a bit OTT the other way  My honest opinion falls somewhere in the middle but definitely leaning more positive. The reason I signed up though was to share a link you might be interested in: www.queenzone.com/forums/1316454/announce-queen-and-adam-lambert-moscow-russia-july-3rd-2012-flac.aspx It's a link to a queenzone thread which has a link to a torrent to the audio of the whole show in FLAC format. Cheers! Thanks for sharing.  |

Talon, I'm curious. What did most Queen fans think about the Paul Rogers collaborations? That's a tough nut. It's all basically when you asked...LOL. In general when it was announced it was about 50/50. There are some Queen fans who think it is basically blashphemy for anyone but Freddie to have a long term realtionship with the band) Part of them (honestly myself included) would rather Brian and Roger just get a few other musicians like what they have now and just front the show themselves...I think that's the purist thing they could do and Roger and Brian can obviously both sing. BUT the tour did win a lot of fans overall until they released the new album. That lost a lot of support as it brought up the idea of a Queen album without Freddie. For the most part the main argument seems to be using the Queen name. If Brian and Roger worked with Paul under a new name or under May/Taylor/Rodgers or whatever it would have been far more acceptable to them. Furthermore I think the same applies here. If Brian and Roger worked with Adam and didn't call it Queen, it might go down easier. To me it's nitpicky and I don't really care what they call it but I can understand why they feel the way they do. I do find it amusing that now some people who were against PR are now clamoring for them to get back together with him. I think I can undestand that. Perhaps I'd react the same way if somebody someday would try to replace Adam by singing his songs. Maybe. I don't know ??? |

Don't you just love Brian in this top picture. Looks like a contented cat lapping up the energy. |
