Been gone all day and just catching up! Love that snippet of Adam and Cynthia. Would love to see them perform together live sometime. Ove that new jacket of Adam's. One thing is for sure. Adam is not worried about "blending in." LOL
Lots of nice goodies today. And a few more things to looks forward to. Love that mask!

So excited! I got my CD from Amazon today. Ordered this one a few days ago after I had to reorder from the Queen store due to credit card issue! I have Spotify so I've been playing it there!

LATW Review - VillageSoup (Camden, Maine) knox.villagesoup.com/p/live-waters-stones-and-queen/1873294Queen + Adam Lambert: Live Around the World (Hollywood Records, Blu-ray or DVD, NR, + CD, 100 min., also CD alone). When Queen’s current tour was interrupted by the novel coronavirus pandemic, the band members – guitarist-vocalist Brian May and drummer-vocalist Roger Taylor from the original band and vocalist Adam Lambert – decided to go through their recorded concert footage and pull out their favorite performances, assembling them into what would be a typical Queen show. There are 22 numbers spread across 2014 to 2020, as the last seven come from an early-year show in Sydney, Australia. The earliest performances, from 2014, are “Now I’m Here,” “Another One Bites the Dust” and “I Was Born to Love You,” all from Tokyo; the deep album cut “Love Kills” from Los Angeles; and the “Drum Battle” from Sydney. “Drum Battle” is just that, a battle between Roger Taylor and his son, Rufus Tiger Taylor. Both “Drum Battle” and May’s lengthy, but very good “Guitar Solo – Lost Horizon” only appear on the Blu-ray and not the CD. It is very nice to hear “Now I’m Here,” with some strong guitar by May, and Lambert, the former “American Idol” contestant (who should have won), proves he was the perfect choice to replace the late Freddie Mercury as he performs “Another One Bites the Dust.” Lambert also excels on “Don’t Stop Me Now” and “I Want to Break Free,” both from Lisbon, Portugal in 2016, with the crowd singing throughout the latter, and Lambert’s personality comes through on “Somebody to Love,” performed along with “Who Wants to Live Forever” in 2018 at the Isle of Wight Festival. The latter song is dedicated to those who had just lost their lives in the Orlando, Florida gay nightclub shooting. There is spectacle here too, as the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders join the band on stage to dance through “Fat Bottomed Girls,” although that song’s title nary fits any of the cheerleaders. For “Under Pressure,” sung in 2019 in New York City, drummer Taylor sings the David Bowie part. A 2018 London performance of “Love of My Life” is by May alone on acoustic guitar, although the crowd sings portions and a video performance by Mercury briefly appears. Mercury is again seen on video to perform “Ai-Ohs” during the recent Sydney show, a show that also includes the hits “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Radio Ga Ga” and the anthems “We Will Rock You” and “We Are the Champions.” The set comes with a very nice, 24-page booklet full of color photos. Grade: A
