I wonder if the "arrival" is staged for the camera. Don't they arrive at the venue early and get ready in their dressing rooms? It makes it look like they go straight from the car to the stage, but no one has ear monitors yet. And yes, Adam looks amazing walking from the car with Brian and Roger! Love the use of the flashlights. All the Behind the Scenes stuff is fantastic, and it leaves me wanting more. I believe this stadium is so large & with multiple acts, they had to be driven to the stage area. Remember, we have photos of them watching from the VIP boxes. Thanks, mys*&@^#r. I thought about that AFTER I got offline for dinner.

Adam, too "queenie" for George Takei? I really loath Howard Stern and I am honestly so glad Adam has never appeared on his shithole of a show. I hope he keeps it that way.
I think it's George opinion that Adam's too "queenie". He didn't even said anything about PH, which in my opinion's the queen of queenie. But we just need to put Adam's picture next to George and we will see who's the queenie.. LOL.

For the techies, a really interesting insight into how the sound is produced on the tour: www.fohonline.com/current-issue/21-production-profile/11004-queen-tour-rocks-arenas-old-style.htmlWhile few who have seen the show would say that Lambert is doing anything less than a stellar job vocally, for the guys twisting the knobs for the audience, it’s a tale of two generations. When Lambert goes out playing his own music, he likes his stage quiet. There are no guitar cabinets, certainly no wedges, and even his drummer’s kit has more padding. But with Queen? Let’s get that stage loud. Thus the extra monitor engineer, mixing only for Lambert. “It was a good decision to bring Adam’s own guy out,” Coyle says, of Gary Stokes, who handles the task for the frontman. “The two monitor engineers are both fantastic, and they work together really well.” Stokes has a history with Lambert, having been his FOH for the singer/songwriter’s own shows. “He is an amazing singer and has an amazing range and pitch. I work for k.d. lang a lot, and she, too, has an amazing range and pitch. Really good singers have really good hearing!” he laughs. “They hear subtle details more than average singers, and consequently, they have more specific needs. There’s not a static mix that will make them comfortable or happy through a whole show or even a whole song. When they go in the higher register, you need to ride a fader or EQ a bit, for example.”
Oh wow.. thanks for posting this article. I'm so glad that Adam brings in his own sound engineer that understand his needs on stage and know that every registers needs different treatment. So now we know why he keeps on giving those Morse code and add to that we know he's such a perfectionist.

It's something people are doing to raise money and awareness of Lou Gehrig's Disease (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). They pour a bucket of ice water over their head and then challenge someone else to do it (and of course to donate to the charity fighting the disease). Sounds silly, but the effort has gone viral and raised millions more dollars than ever before.

I've been gone all day. I got to share in watching my little granddaughter get her ears pierced! Aww...she was so sweet and brave! And she looks adorable with her tiny stud earrings! Starting the GLAM early! I remember seeing these two ladies on stage at that concert! Cute tweet! Debbie AlamoBert @saspurs21fan 3h @adamlambert @drbrianmay You left your backup singer/swayers/fist pumping ROCKIN cheerleaders back in Texas! Ha! ;-)

An amazing amount of money has been raised and it was a brilliant idea by whoever thought of it. I hope Adam's sees Chris Colfer's challenge to him and does it. Adam could get so many fans to participate and help raise a lot of money for ALS.

I swapped 2 for 1. From a technicle standpoint why some don't like it, or prefer other songs, maybe because of the missed high note in the end. But this was the performance that got Adam mass appeal, and made him an intetnational star well Wll too. Can someone put Satiafaction back on too haha.

I'm saving my Top 10 revision vote for the next time Ring Of Fire gets bumped out of #1, LOL. IMO that was a game changer orders of magnitude more significant than any other song ever done on American Idol. By anyone. .... and 3ku1 did it right as I posted that Puttin' it back. 10: If I Can't Have You - Yvonne Elliman 9: Beth - KISS 8: Born to Be Wild - Steppenwolf 7: Tracks of My Tears - Smokey Robinson 6: Whataya Want from Me - Adam Lambert 5: Feelin’ Good - Nina Simone 4: Whole Lotta Love - Led Zeppelin 3: A Change is Gonna Come - Sam Cooke 2: Mad World - Tears For Fears 1.
