Huggie ❄ @ian_hank 1h Absolutely mental... Queue for Queen at Nottingham Arena 1.30pm.. Freddies been Dead 25 year ffs I think maybe he's missing the 'Adam' factor! Edit: ....and some tour arranger's head will roll booking that hotel! Yeah, apparently this guy has no clue about Queen as it is now. A world-wide, arena-filling phenomenon. Maybe he should get a ticket and see the show. And yes, that hotel might just make a few changes in his "décor" and gift shop items.

twitter.com/TheScotsman/status/938037794731122688The Scotsman @thescotsman Music review: Queen & Adam Lambert at Glasgow Hydro trib.al/TaJ2Cbh @queenwillrock @adamlambert @thessehydro Music review: Queen & Adam Lambert, Glasgow Hydro Queen and Adam Lambert perform at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, 3 December 2017 No one can replace the singular Freddie Mercury but Brian May and Roger Taylor have hit paydirt with American vocalist Adam Lambert, who is now an established part of the Queen heritage circus, bringing spectacular shapeshifting vocals which glide effortlessly between hard rock, pop opera and musical theatre, plus natural charisma, camp playfulness and enough of an ego to want to put his own stamp on proceedings rather than settle for being a Mercury proxy. Queen & Adam Lambert, Glasgow Hydro **** The joyous, lusty Queen catalogue is a gift for any entertainer. There was great fun to be had with the jubilantly un-PC Fat Bottomed Girls. For its partner track, Bicycle Race, Lambert mounted a pink tricycle with built-in mike stand and sat atop a large model of “Frank”, the robot from the cover of News of the World, for an uber-camp Killer Queen. Queen custodians Taylor and May remain the main event for many. Both happily covered Lambert’s costume changes with gritty lead vocals (Taylor) and toilet break solos (May) but Lambert could have wooed the most resistant quarry with his soulful rock vocal on I Want It All, gospel trills on Under Pressure and tour de force renditions of Somebody to Love and Who Wants To Live Forever. Confident they can never push it too far, May emerged resplendent in bacofoil cape for a virtuosic Bohemian Rhapsody, which dovetailed into the iconic video, before Lambert strutted in Queenly finery through the air-punching anthems We Will Rock You and We Are The Champions. twitter.com/scotsman_arts/status/938037793540001792

I still have a QAL Sheffield seated ticket for sale. The ticket is in BK 105, Row F. Asking $80 GBP (I paid 102) but I would give it away if someone could not afford it.

This is the hotel. Several photos that could have given the booking person a clue! www.staplefordpark.com/I am not a fanatic about anti-hunting, as I have family that are hunters, but they hunt for the meat as well as the sport. Eat what they catch. I am not a vegetarian as Dr. May is. But...... I would still be very uncomfortable with dead heads and mounted antlers all over a place I was staying. Might even cause nightmares.

www.ontopmag.com/article/34122/Brian_May_Says_Fate_Intervened_To_Unite_Adam_Lambert_Queen#.Wia8goOFeH4.twitterBrian May Says Fate Intervened To Unite Adam Lambert, QueenBy ON TOP MAGAZINE STAFF | December 05, 2017 Queen guitarist Brian May says in his latest book that fate intervened to unite Adam Lambert and Queen. Lambert along with May and drummer Roger Taylor began touring in 2014. In Queen in 3-D, May reveals that he and Taylor weren't even looking for a singer to take the place of Freddie Mercury, who died in 1991 from complications from AIDS. “After we’d finished touring with Paul Rodgers, once again Roger and I felt we were done, and probably that would be the end of Queen touring. We didn’t go out looking for a singer who sounded like Freddie and we didn’t embark on one of these TV searches for stars. We just quietly got on with our business,” May wrote. “But fate was to intervene. A gift from God?!” While competing on American Idol, Lambert performed Bohemian Rhapsody. “And into my inbox came a deluge of people saying, 'You must get together with this guy; he is the natural successor to Freddie; he is the guy you should be touring with.'” May and Taylor later performed with Lambert on Idol. “ t was really blindingly obvious that there was a chemistry already between us and Adam,” May wrote.
“He's never attempted to be Freddie, and I think that's what endears him to the fans, apart from the fact that he is an extraordinary singer with an extraordinary presence,” he added.
Queen + Adam Lambert is currently touring Europe. "...the fact that he is an extraordinary singer with an extraordinary presence" just says it all.
