Boston peeps must be really reserved.
Not many tweets, audience wasn't that loud.
Still the few tweets we got were stellar!

Why would they eliminate TSMGO? It seems to be the culmination of everything the show is about. Honoring Freddie, remembering him, and then, moving forward as Freddie himself sang should happen. ........... Removing TSMGO from the set list would seem to go along with strategic planning to preserve the voice for the rest of the tour. Vocally it makes sense. It may also make sense from an emotional place as well. The last part of the set after Brian's long solo is upbeat, light and tons of fun. The audience is fully participatory with the call and responses. TSMGO may be a bit heavy, thematically and emotionally for the audience mood they have been building. All this is just my ramblings about why we lost that song in the set, and why it may not be back. We miss it, but if you didn't know it had been there before, you would not notice a gap. The momentum builds to BR and the encore. Folks leave completely sated. It's all good. (And Adam takes care of his Stradivarius instrument.) agree! Obviously not going to comment on voice/singing issues strategies, but you have a catch 22 here-
great way to wrap up the show with TSMGO, culmination and all, "the show MUST go on" Then Adam comes out on Bo Rap, blows everyone away, trades lines with Freddie, and they really do sound similar on that last bit. BAM then Adam comes out wearing the crown, it is a done deal, he is the new king - The king is dead, long live the king. A stunning and brilliant message is conveyed, and the whole crowd buys it lock, stock, and barrel, then we all go out feeling like the Champions of the World. Brilliant! Too bad, hope it is not a permanent cut from the song line up.
On the other hand, it does slow things down a bit right at the end. Still I F**Kin LOVE that song!!!!!!

Spike was born Dec 11, 1951, so I think that makes him 63. 62, he will be 63 on Dec 11th this year |

maybe he is doing more work on it? I was watching it earlier today, watched all but the last 40 min, it is really good, and focuses on Adam!

Seems like a pretty slow day here at Atop, too much incredible concert footage from the last week!
Thought some of you might be interested in seeing my take on the Houston concert, damn, already 11 days ago, seems like ancient history by now. But, being a mostly native Houstonian, I want to put this forth for your review and comments:
The thing I noticed the most was the shit eating grin on Adam’s face from the get-go. AMW mentioned it as well, and it was very noticeable. Adam was literally glowing and grinning and flashing that gorgeous smile the whole night. I have a theory about that, and it made me very proud to be in Houston to see Adam blow the roof off of the Toyota Center at this show. One of Adam’s first major theatre performances outside of California was in 2004 in Houston at the Theatre under the Stars in Brigadoon, where he had a significant role. Remember this?
learn more here at: adamtopia.com/thread/21/adam-lambert-timeline?page=6
When he played Houston again for Glamnation 2010 at the Hobby Center for the Performing Arts, the same theatre where he had appeared in Brigadoon, it was the first music concert ever held there, and he had fond memories of his time in Houston. Now, this night, he comes back to Houston to play in it’s largest arena fronting Queen, it had to have been an amazing feeling for him, and that’s why he couldn’t wipe the grin off his face all night long. After 10 years, he is now the mega star that he probably didn't even know he wanted to be in 2004. Back then, he was hoping to make it to Broadway, and here he is fronting the biggest, best Rock N Roll band EVER, and getting rave reviews, knocking it out of the park every night. Or maybe he was still on a high from his hometown performance at the LA Forum, and the Vegas shows? But that’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
