I think adamrocks is referring to the mp3 files that terra has uploaded on her page. Any file whose name ends with "zip" must be unzipped whether it is mp3 or video files. In Windows 7 just double click on the file and the contents of the zip file will be displayed in Windows Explorer. Then click on the "Extract all files" at the top left corner of the Windows Explorer.

Thanks for the information.

Adam Lambert...the modern edgy artist with an old rock soul.

what hotel is adam staying at in poland? I read it was 5K a night??? is that true or rumor?

This is the hotel in Poland, but the $5000 a night rumor was about the Moscow Hotel

oh okay... thanks!! seems unlikely that Moscow would have 5k a night hotels considering their economy is even worse than ours LOL

Ahhh, but it is for tourists! Moscow residents don't stay there!!

ETA: I just did a currency converter and their most expensive suit is 3,000 a night. But there is also a special floor, with suites, and they don't give the prices for those on their site.
There is also a suite that is one step down from the 3,000 one and the photo kind of looks like the one Adam did that interview in. That suite is $800 a night.
I'm sure his travel expenses are being covered by Queen though, so it depends on what they like their guest vocalists to have!

Does anyone know what I need to do to convert Talon's FLAC flies to something that will open on my Mac? I downloaded a converter but it only gives me options to convert for an iPhone, iPad, Apple TV etc. but no option to open on iTunes or Quick Player

I am somewhat technically challenged but I think I can follow clear instructions if someone is familiar with these formats.

Oh, is there another carrot eating pic or GIF today that I missed seeing?

It's from this interview at the Sumerthing gig. "And that is how Adam Lambert eats carrots."

Just finished my 4th celebration and just started the thread but I wonder if anyone has noticed that Adam, of course, loves to interact with his band while he's singing and he did the first show a lot with Brian. I kinda LOL got the feeling that Brian was a bit shy when Adam would kinda mess with him while he was playing. Now, Moscow, look at Brian...his clothes, his demeanor. He is now playing right back. He's running on stage and bouncing and having the time of his life. Adam has that kind of effect on people. I am loving every vid I see of these first shows. Adam, of course, like so many have said previously, Adam is meant to do this. He is a natural. I so envy those of you that are there seeing this epicness.

Yeah, that's the Truth....

Is queen considered HARD ROCK? Even Freddie's voice wouldn't be well suited for "hard rock" which is like Black Sabbath or even Metalica so I'm not sure I understand the comment.

In reading all your voice comments Cassie I've gotten the impression that if you had your way Adam would sing Opera or something close to it and I personally hope he never goes down that path.

Hell if I know if Queen is considered HARD ROCK. It's a genre I have heard, but do not listen to. I was responding to opinions expressed about whether Adam's voice was right for Queen, or whether it was right for rock. And to opinions that have gone around since Idol, that Adam should do a rock album (Randy and Kara).

As for what Adam should sing, if I had my way, I'd love to hear Adam sing opera, musical theater songs, American song book standards, and jazz. That VOICE combined with those genres would be breathtakingly good. But I acknowledge that A) Adam doesn't WANT to sing that style, B) many other folks don't want him singing those styles, and C) if Adam had stuck with those styles he would still be in the chorus in the back (lord knows why he was not given lead roles with that voice, but he wasn't) and singing in late night jazz clubs that had a maximum capacity of 24.

Listening to/watching Adam sing pop and rock (or whatever you call what he is doing) is better than not experiencing him at all. He is amazing whatever he is doing, and I am thoroughly enjoying myself watching vid after vid.

I too would love to hear Adam's voice on musical theatre songs.... there are so many wonderful (and reasonably recent) songs that he would just be breathtaking on!
One of my closest friends who is a very good singer, listened to Trespassing and although she loved it, and loves Adam's voice, her "criticism" was that all she could think about was how amazing he'd be singing musical theatre songs! (She is a HUGE Michael Buble fan, so that goes to show her taste! ;D)
Maybe one day it will happen - but I can't see it for several years and many other albums (hopefully) later!

Having said that, I am totally LOVING what is happening with both Trespassing and QueenBert!
This is just the most fantastic time to be an Adam fan... and I am fortunate to be on school holidays for these two weeks so I have time to soak it all up!! (and watch vids several thousand times! ;D)

Queen & Adam Lambert in PRO-новости, эфир от 04.07.12

ETA: A tweet from Katerina ‏@jadelle1
says: btw, the interview is taking place in Adam's "gold" room.

00: - one of the main musical events of the summer is over – the legendary group Queen with Adam Lambert performed on a Moscow stage, but prior to that they gave an interview to [name].. Brian May spoke about Moscow sky and Adam talked about his boyfriend and his love of shopping…
:25 –Bri: “we love being in Russia”..unfortunately Freddie is not with the legendary group for 20 years now…his piercing vocals are loved by millions

;55 but as Freddie willed - the show must go on! So meet the new front man of the group, the winner of the most popular talent show in the US – American Idol – Adam Lambert.!
1:05: greetings… Adam is staying in an expensive hotel in the center of Moscow. The suite where the interview us taking place costs 130,000 rubles/day [approx. $4500/day)
1:20 although the singer is used to luxury he is down to earth and values his fans. He is happily talking about his life. “When I have free time I do the regular thing – movies, parties with friends, spend time with my bf”…

1:36 Lambert announce his sexual orientation in the very beginning of his career. There are many pictures of him with young men…

1:44 “I can’t talk for all gay people…you know, the world is complicated and there might be difficulties in families and in society…it is very difficult to admit your own self at times and it can be scary…

2:01 “what crazy thing are you ready to do in the name of love?”
Adam: “in the name of love? Hm.. a good question…”
.
would you like to date me? That would be a really crazy thing…
2:20 if the new talent from the West is only starting to build his personal life, the mature rockers Brian and Roger spend a lot of time with their families. Brian is also teaching astrophysics at a university.

2:35: Brian, I know you are an astrophysicist… what do you think about our sky?
Brian: ‘I think it is beautiful. A great question, thank you! I have many friends astrophysicists here, they made a lot of discoveries… I hope to see them at the concert as they’ve never seen a Queen show.
2:55 The concert in Moscow attracts fans from all over the world. They come from different countries. The fan zone is full. Look for yourself…
3:07 the concert started only 20 mins late – not too bad for superstars! [LOLOLOL!!!!]
The fans are happy, but nevertheless many have the feeling of the irreplaceable loss as Freddie cannot be replaced.
3:19 a fan: “the unique voice of Freddie Mercury cannot be out sung…but may be he [Adam] can do it…
3:33 the Russian ambassador is Zemphira she sand with the legends in 2004 and nor she chose the song “Life is Real” in memory of her late brother
3:58 the group proves that their life is real not only by the show with these two singers real ..it is possible that soon Lambert and Zemphira will be replaced by other performers. For instance the winner of the Queen Extrav. Contest – Marc Martel [wow – what a stupid journalistic liberty here!]
