TY So it looks like Adam only planned a one hour concert. I could see where people might be upset, since Pitts Pride advertised his gig as 90 minutes. And Adam has played plenty of 90 minute sets. It was very confusing. I was even shocked when it was over and I was watching livestream. Very surprised he didn't even give a shout-out to Pride. It's a special event. Color me baffled. What he did sing was hot for sure. I only hope that Adam and the Pride organizers were on the same page about the setlist length. That's all. Hello, Miss Vivlite, how are you doing? ) You see what they're doing to me with the sexy gifs? Downright cruel, I'll say:) Gorgeous specimen of a male abdomen, I absolutely have to say:))) I'm not surprised nor baffled. As for the length of the concert, acc. to the set list, it was as long as planned. Re the lack of extensive banter or a Pride shout out: ~maybe he didn't feel like it ~maybe he had to rush ~maybe he thought the audience was too drunk or too horny would not appreciate it ~maybe he gives his speeches only in City Halls from now on:) Great speeches, at that!!! ~maybe he felt that, what with the dick shots and naked bodies in the audience, fun and sexy times would be enough:) ~maybe he left it for the end of the gig, but then he managed to establish a non-verbal deal with the two boys he had been eyeing on the left and had to cut it short due to the pressing matters... ~maybe he wanted to stay consistent to his recently established 'silent, mysterious' ways, maybe he is sick of talking, maybe he wasn't inspired, maybe he wants to keep us guessing, maybe he forgot, maybe, maybe.... It doesn't really matter. He is the guy who will always go for the less obvious, for the unexpected. Hence the amazing and sexy Dragon Attack, not the boring WATC... Because HE LIKES it that way:))) Anyways, about that abdomen... uywoeggggggsriollopioy!#^&*(*&^%!!!!!!!!! Cheers!

Queen Fan Club @oiqfcArticle also mentions @adamlambert TV project RT @pressparty: @oiqfc QUEEN's BRIAN MAY confirms PSY collaboration mrkt.ms/1bKK5Zq Brian May confirms Psy collaborationQueen guitar legend Brian May has confirmed plans to work with Korean superstar Psy. May talked to MTV News UK on the black carpet of the Kerrang! Awards and revealed that he and the ‘Gangnam Style’ rapper had brunch in London this week to talk about collaborating. May said: "I met the guy and we had a very interesting chat. "He's a very thoughtful man and a significant artist. He's also encyclopaedic about Queen and says the reason he wanted to sing is because he saw Queen at Wembley '86 on video. "We have a couple of ideas, so yeah I'm up for it. "May also confirmed further plans with previous collaborator Adam Lambert, who fronted Queen for a series of sold-out shows last year. "We are talking about doing something with Adam, probably for TV,” said May. “He's an amazing artist and a very nice guy. We keep in touch and have a good friendship. "We're not talking about touring yet, but we are talking about doing an event." Insert the image of Psy here (Ugh) That's me speaking. (lol)
Watch Queen fronted by Adam Lambert playing London last year:
well...well...well.... I feel bad for all the Queen purists.... you know how the Psy colab feels "yuk" to us? it must feel a thousand times worse to them.... and as a cheery on top - another project with Adam - the person who's name is not "allowed" to be mentioned on the QOL board any more....

Just a quick thought based on what I learned following U2. These concerts that Adam is doing in the US are basically one offs. They are not tour dates. There is a world of difference between "tour" performances and "one offs". Most hardcore U2 fans have very low expectations of U2 one off performances. There is a lot of similarity in how Adam and U2 approach "tour" performances. Tours are fairly structured with a three act template if you will and little in the way of set changes and are designed to take you on an emotional journey in the process. During tours they really get in to the set and really live within the songs. But "one offs" especially during times when the band is working on new material often suffer because U2 has trouble switching gears between the creative mindset and the touring mindset. Some artist can switch back and forth with ease but others can't. Adam seems to be the type that doesn't switch back and forth easily. He has talked about how he needed time at the end of GNT to get back to "normal" so that he could start writing, and from the end of WAG we can see that he has been doing a lot of that, just hanging out with friends and living what is as close as he can get to a "normal" life but he still has to throw these performances in now and again. I think that is why they don't seem as cohesive as a regular tour performance. He is sort of half in half out of performance mode so things get a little disjointed. This can be difficult for us hardcore fans who watch everything but I think we need to just focus on the fact that the twitter comments from the less hardcore fans are still very positive and people are still blown away by what we may see as not Adam's best level of performance. For me personally, I would never try to compare a "one off" concert to a regular tour concert because they are really different things. From what I saw on twitter the only ones slightly disappointed were those comparing to tour level performances whose expectations were at that level. Another point, I see a people all the time comparing one artist to another in terms of how many songs they sing or how long they sing. I don't think this is really fair to any artist because they all present themselves differently. U2 has rarely ever done longer than a two and 1/2 hour set even though they've got plenty of material to draw from. People will complain that Springsteen plays for three hours plus so why can't they. But Springsteen's approach to a concert is more like a jukebox than a journey. It rarely seems to have anything to do with how the songs relate to one another. It's a musical jam that shuffles through his catalog. I've never seen anything in interviews that indicated any kind of structure to how he chooses what songs to play. U2 however does specifically design their tour setlist with definite three act style and designed to take you on an emotional journey. They talk about this in interviews all the time. Bono specifically states that his intention for a concert is that is a healing process. His goal it that is a cathartic journey and you leave feeling better than when you came in. Adam's shows are also designed in a similar way. U2 even specifically picks the songs that are played over the PA in the last 30 minutes before they hit the stage with the last song before stage always being the same. That setlist is also designed to prepare the audience. GNT's pre show dance party was similar in that Adam had someone specifically DJing the break to turn it in to a dance party leading in to his show and they kept tailoring it to enhance that feel during tour as they saw the audiences really getting in to it. I got the feeling that they were proud of that because most of Adam's crew and sometimes even Adam would watch the audience from the wings. I think sometimes we have such high expectations that we can end up feeling disappointed by Adam just because the bar is set SO high. Expectations can be a real bitch like that so I decided a long time ago that I have a lot more fun when I set my expectations low and let myself be blown away rather than setting high expectations and maybe being disappointed. My expectations are exactly that, mine and how can I expect someone who doesn't even know me to live up to my expectations. Now it's a different thing when you hold someone to what they have said their expectation. I think this kind of feeds in to why Adam is trying not to say much about the album. I think that last time along the way fans developed expectations that may not have been in line with where Adam was going and then were disappointed and I think he is trying to minimize the level of expectation so that people can be more open to the experience rather than coming with an idea of what they expect. Sorry for the long ramble. LOL Thank you for your long ramble.. LOL. For fans who follow Adam since GNT, I think we understand how he structured his concert tour, instead of experiencing a concert Adam wanted his fans to experience a journey. He did it with GNT and I think he did again with WAG. I understand we all have favorites songs in his albums and we wanted Adam to perform them live. But Adam always has his own concept on how to present his own show. If our favorite songs don't fit in his concept/story telling or journey that he wanted us to experience then they will never be part of his concert. I'd love Adam to perform some of the song in his album too, but I never let myself down if he doesn't. Adam knows what he's doing. He knows how to present his show. He's the expert, so I will trust my journey to the expert.
