lurleene, You and I agree on so many things, and I think we still do. I didn't mean to imply that Adam is crying crocodile tears into his pricey wine glass because he isn't making his usual megabucks this year. He'll weather this storm just fine. I guess I just meant that his career setback, due to circumstances beyond his control, may be just another part of his current mindset. Frustration, anger, impatience, and all that. I know some people will say, "Those rich people shouldn't complain about anything. They've got tons of money." Of course, I disagree, and no one should take Adam's opinions less seriously simply because he's wealthy. Like you, I think Adam is sincere to the core, and he tries his best to be accurate with his comments amidst all the chaos. Some may not like the way he says it, but his heart is always in the right place. Yep. I know you, like most of us, get Adam and appreciate his heart. We know his stand against racism and inequality is sincere. All we can do is support him and the cause and hope he is not too hurt by the reactions of some of his fans. I think with all the discrimination he has faced himself, he is really stunned by the attitudes of some of his fans (if they are really his fans tweeting crap to him) who think he should just shut up and say nothing.

I admire, respect him so much. I feel the same way about Pink. They are not afraid to speak out.

Keep well, LindaG23. May we all replenish and revive. Linda G23, I will certainly miss your insightful posts! I hope that you will soon feel comfortable posting again. You are one of the treasures in this community of Adam fans. These are unprecedented times, and emotions run very high. I look forward to your posts again! Stay safe and well. Know that I for one am thinking about you, and as satisfied so eloquently said, may we all replenish and revive. Adam is one of our lifelines right now, and I respect his opinions, even though I may not agree 100% of what he is tweeting. I applaud him for speaking out on issues that are so important to him, (and many of us). And I also have to say that bamafan's opinions, even though different from my own, speak of tolerance and maybe respecting the opinions of others at this point? As well as theosgma, who is "buddying up" with bamafan to perhaps broaden their horizons, and possibly find a "common ground" in the midst of all this chaos. Of one thing I'm certain, we appreciate Adam's forthright and unwavering approach to these issues. As I read earlier on this board, he has a beautiful soul, which is one of the things I admire most about him. And why I will remain his loyal fan!! It's obvious that this passion and his keen insight into so many issues reflect in the music he has created, and why he is such a powerful performer and songwriter. His emotion and passion shine through in everything he has created, including his own music, and performing the immense catalogue of Queen's incredible music. His angelic voice can send me to the stars!

Yes, Sarah Cooper, Randy Rainbow, and Rogue Melanie all can make me laugh.
