www.showbizspy.com/article/248187/adam-lambert-under-pressure.htmlADAM LAMBERT : UNDER PRESSURE! ADAM Lambert is feeling the pressure! The American Idol star admits he’s nervous about taking his place with the remaining Queen members in London next week and starts to sing the songs that Freddie Mercury made so famous. “I’m not superstitious about it. I do recognize the pressure and the expectation and I want to do a great job, I don’t want to let anybody down. I want to put on a good show. But I also feel confident that I’ll be able to do that,” Lambert told the Huffington Post. “The music does resonate with me, because of my background in theater, and singing rock music, so it’s a natural fit. Freddie was so theatrical. Some of the songs are hard rock, some of the more obscure stuff could have been… Andrew Lloyd Webber. “The best thing is that Brian, John and Roger are lovely. “It’s very prestigious gig, but taking it would have been a harder decision to make had they not been, and my confidence levels would have suffered. And to do this music, you have to be secure. “I met the band, and there was a connection. They were so down to earth, positive and sociable, and I came away thinking ‘what dudes’ and we had kind of mentioned doing… something.” Adam recently revealed he’d love to appear in a movie. MORE

speaking of a few Atopers missing-in-action, what about hsm our lolly bucket carrier? i haven't seen much of her (doesn't she normally pass out lollies on concert days?). is she also on her way to London? [snorts] HSM has been out of power (or dealing with the stinky aftermath of having no power) for a week. I'm LEAVING FOR LONDON TOMORROW AND HAVE **NOTHING** READY. Told shufly, rjacks, and silverblue that I'm stuffing my tickets, passport, phone, and credit cards in my jacket, bringing a packpack of dirty laundry, and I'll just wash/ buy everything else when I get there. I've got to get work deadlines to meet before the end of the week despite the no power issues and my daughter's camp just got power back for the first time yesterday so she's been home and hyper...which has affected productivity just a liiiiitle bit. Thanks goodness everyone else is organized, because all I'm doing is stumbling to the airport and then following everyone else around. Gonna assume that anyone I see wearing an AL shirt is going to Hammersmith and I'll tag along like an imprinted duckling. ;D |

I have to share this. I am on a vacation in Bulgaria, and I just saw my best friend. I showed him Somebody to love from Moscow and he liked it very much. He said Adam will have a big future!!!! Please note he is a huge rock snob, he listens to Deep Purple, Led Zep, Whitesnake and the likes (well, I listen to them too and I was a snob before February 2009  ). He said he was definitely going to pay to see Queen + Adam if they came to Bulgaria. Odds for Queen in Bulgaria are less than 0.001%, but his words made me sooooooo happy :D. He said that Adam should sing his own music and I plugged FEY and Tresspassing, and he wanted to hear them. Now I have to buy them for him. I warned him that they are pop-rock and funk-dance-electro-pop-rock-dubstep-whatever, but he said he would listen with an open mind. I am very, very happy right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ETA: And my friend also said that Adam is a very handsome boy. And no, he is not gay! |

The third one will probably be the most EPIC!!! I recently bought a ticket for July 14, so now I am going to all 3 shows! I agree, the last concert will probably be the most amazing of all. |

I will have lots to drool over on the way to the London 14th concert! I missed this somehow. Could you tell me where the link is? This was dancygeorgia's original post: Here's the best Kiev video to download!
It was made from the 6.6 GB video and converted to a 1 GB mp4 video that has chapter selection when played in iTunes or on an iPhone or iPad! And the 150 ms out-of-sync between audio and video were corrected. And there is no watermark on this video. A very big thanks to mmyy9 for doing this and to Terra for her help with the sync!!
mmyy9@mmyy9
(Kiev) I converted the 6GB MPEG from QueenZone bit.ly/N5qpX4 to an iTunes-compatible mp4 w chapters for DL (1GB) bit.ly/LvQRa2
If the above link doesn't work try: minus.com/lvhKDgWkLuq6H
I had problems downloading this using IE - it kept pausing and then finally told me that it could not download it. But it downloaded perfectly the 1st time with FireFox.
Here are some instructions for displaying the chapters in iTunes taken for the Apple site (http://www.apple.com/itunes/features/):
"While a movie or video is playing, move the pointer to bring up onscreen controls. You can play, pause, scan backward or forward, and adjust volume. iTunes lets you navigate through chapters if this option is included in the video or movie."PS: I had no problems using internet explorer and moved it right into itunes - great quality, chapters and all!!! Enjoy! |
