Thank you betty for the lovely cakes! I love strawberries! Look what for surprise was waiting for me at work this morning! Guess I am now officially known in the world as an Adam fan! Every time I think of this I keep smiling from ear to ear. So lovely! Glad you have such kind coworkers!

The Apollo London numbers are really impressive. Not surprising given the amount of promo and press Adam has gotten in the UK + Queen. But still so nice to see. Open seating capacity for the Eventim Apollo is 5,039. At 5,087 it is almost 50 tickets over maximum capacity. This is one of the venues that opens up blocks of tickets for open seating concerts -- and the capacity is sort of liquid. In any case. that is sold out. Yes - I said in my Apollo TOH recap that the floor was definitely fuller for TOH than it was for QAL in 2012 though both were sell-outs.. I sat in the same balcony position both times and looked over (looking for my boys in 2012 - great Queen fans). The space at the back of the floor was noticeably greater in 2012 and I think the crowd was wider all the way back for TOH. And I don't think it's because Queen fans squashed up more - quite the opposite.....the TOH standers were super-squashed.... (My unscientific point being that I wondered if floor numbers were flexible depending on demand) Edit: and who wants to bet that Adam has a new hair colour tomorrow night? So, can we assume that, after expenses, overhead, etc., Adam netted a goodly sum from the TOH tour? I know not every venue was sold out, but it sure looks like overall he did really well.

Does Brian allude to the possibility that Adam may change his hair colour for the gigs..?? I think he is alluding to the fact that Adam changes hair colors constantly! I adore this interview so much!!! Brian and Roger are SO generous and open with their praise for Adam. They know how lucky they are to have him. They truly believe that if they didn't have Adam, they would not have revitalized and toured the world in front of massive audiences. They know it. It's a fact. And it's due to Adam, the whole Queen package, the Gift From God.

Not sure why QAL not being part of the streaming is suddenly a surprise to anyone. I asked a number of times here, more than a week ago, if there was confirmation they were included. The original video with Adam speaking at the beginning clearly showed the artists that were part of the stream... and the May 20th date only listed Mika and Fergie..... no QAL. So this is not something new and they likely requested no streaming early on.

It's working - are we BSC or what? Plus Adam said "it's new" which sounds, to me, that he's not yet tired of it
