While patiently waiting.... ....getting excited to see the first live AX Factor show tomorrow...

For adamrocks and others...
This vimeo gives you some views of the house Adam purchased when it was listed so that you can see how the new rockstar entertainment area    is fitting into his yard.  I hope he puts a BBQ kitchen area outside to make it the full package....but I cannot see any basic construction for that ...  

Oh!  Wow!  Thanks for this!!

I've been a silent watcher of this board here for a bit now and today I thought I'd register.

First I wanna say a HELLO to all you nice people on here!

How I came to Adam Lambert? I've always loved "Whataya want from me". On the radio it stuck out to me when I heared it but I didn't dig any deeper. Then Christmas 2014 he was on this TV Show promoting the European tour with Queen, friends showed me the video of him performing Lady Gaga's "Marry the night" on Glee, there was this article in our news paper of the QAL concert coming up in Munic...the name kept crossing my radar so I checked the guy out...and boy what was I to find?!!! Needles to say I was impressed of his work with Queen which was the first things I checked out and it went on from there. I found I just love his voice, his music, just his artistry and I think he's really smart. I've been hooked ever since.

Now to the more current topics at hand:
I caught the scene before Eddis on Rocky Horror and watched till the scene after. I gotta say it just didn't make me want to watch the hole thing. Adam SLAYED of course!!! I'm in looooove with "Hot Patootie" and " Sience Fiction"

I know we're all fans here so we might no be the most objektive but is it just me or is Adam the most attentive, interested, engaged Judge on X-Factor and gives the most in depth answers? I've only watched the first four episodes...have to catch up on the rest.

The topic of Adams success seems to reoccur not only on this board so I'd like to give my two cents on it. Success like many other things is a thing of definition and perspective. I think we can all agree that he's not as widely known, which is a hard thing to measure anyway, as Taylor Swift or a Justin Bieber. (I'm workin on it! I'm spreading the word! *lol*) I think Adam is VERY successful. He's had big hits, he tours internationaly and more important he get's to choose and pick projects he really likes, get's to do things he loves and he's BUSY. He always get's good reviews with what he does and gains new fans also he brings along he friends on his way.

Sorry for rambling! Hope it wasn't too much.

Hello again to all you lovely people out there!

Greetings Marion

marionm, thanks for sharing your healthy perspective on Adam's fame and success and how you became a fan. Did you end up going to the Queen and Adam concert at Olympiahalle Munich? I was there and brought my sister along. For me, best Queen concert so far!

‘X Factor’ Australia 2016 spoilers: Top 9 feel threatened by the underdogs; Adam Lambert hints of a showdown between Mel B and Iggy Azalea [VIDEOS]
First live episode this season airs on Oct. 23

The top nine are getting pretty nervous on the upcoming episode of "X Factor" Australia 2016, and they have two good reasons to be on the edge.

Apart from the fact that it’s going to be the first live episode this season, the underdogs are coming with their full battle gear on. The reality singing competition is putting much hype on the arrival of Mel B, who chooses among those who got eliminated by her fellow judges Guy Sebastian, Adam Lambert, and her fiercest competitor, Iggy Azalea.

The three judges have already taken their pick from this year’s contenders. Adam, with his category of Under 22s, chose Natalie Ong, Amalia and Isaiah Firebrace. Guy’s Over 22s team, on the other hand, is composed of Davey Woder, Chynna Taylor and Timmy Knowles. Iggy is hell bent to have the first group “X Factor” Australia winner and is betting on Brentwood, Montage and Time and Place.

While the top nine are still heady over bagging a spot in the competition, they admitted that they’re nervous about the arrival of the underdogs. “No matter who they choose from that three chair challenge, they’re going to be massive competition,” Timmy said in a video clip posted by “X Factor” Australia on its Facebook page. The brother-and-sister duo, on the other hand, revealed that they feel slightly threatened by how good the underdogs are going to be.

Girl group Montage, who managed to take the spot of another girl trio called Beatz, shared why the underdogs are a big threat. “Underdogs are going to be the most hardworking category,” they reveal. “They’re going to try their hardest to prove themselves.” [READ: “Groups take on the three seat challenge; Brentwood, Montage and Time and Place are Iggy Azalea’s top three”]

However, 15-year-old student Natalie knows where her priorities should lie amid the fierce competition. “It’s going to be a very big twist but we’re just going to concentrate on ourselves and just do our best and that’s all we can do,” the Singapore-borne singer said. Natalie’s confidence may be stemming from her astounding performance during the Adam’s three chair challenge aired on Oct. 16. Adam was so impressed with her rendition of Etta James’ “I’d Rather Go Blind,” he threw a shoe, which he said was his way of giving his utmost approval.

The girl with the big voice earlier set the “X Factor” Australia stage on fire when she sang Christina Aguilera’s powerful ballad “The Voice Within.” The video of her performance has gone viral, generating more than 250,000 views to date.

In another video posted by “X Factor” Australia on its Facebook page, Natalie’s mentor, Adam, said that he’s excited for Sunday’s live episode. He shared that it would be the first time that he’s going to get to know his team and work with them. “I’m so impressed by how talented they are,” he gushed. Adam added that he’s also getting ready for Mel B’s arrival and is curious how she “shakes things up on the panel.”

The “American Idol” runner-up claimed it would be interesting to see whether she and Iggy get along. “Two strong women… it’s going to be an adventure,” he said, followed by a laugh. He then added that he and Guy would just be in the sidelines, either “egging them on or diffusing the tension.” Iggy earlier admitted that if Mel B wins, she “would never sleep at night.”

I think we will see the final product! That seems to be what the intention is. Hoping Stonehurst puts it on their website, like some of their other projects! 

The grotto is sort of still there, though modernized to suit the new construction. In the photo from yesterday, it is the deep area that is to the left of the cut down in the reflecting pool that the guy is putting the lights in.

Talon I know reflecting on things sometimes can be very melancholy.  Hopefully Brian will be able to recharge himself and QAL can continue.  And hopefully Brian and Roger will do other individual projects in the future.

HUGS.

Thanks I believe he will. I have to wonder if the "safe place" he went is a facility. I hope he does so if that's what needs.

Talon...thank you SOOOOO much for those . I really love ...and would be hard pressed to name a favorite between BACK TO THE LIGHT and WILDERNESS....slight preference for Wilderness i think tho that could just be a recency effect. Resurrection has way too much testerone ooozing out of it for mr...came really close to halting the vid before done, tbh. Shudder.... Ymmv

Understandable. Brian was always the heaviest rocker of Queen and this was him at his most defiant. But glad you liked the other two

Talon

I was moved by your post and by what Queen has meant to you over a lifetime.

It made me think of how I would feel if we were never to see QAL again and I realise that, for me, it would be a forever loss.

Nothing lasts forever - We just have to make sure we seize as much of the day as we can.

Let's hope that Brian will recover soon - I'm sure he will.
He is privileged to be able to create the best circumstances to facilitate that....

He certainly is and I hope he takes full advantage of it.

I hear you, Talon, I was really saddened and concerned to hear Brian was so unwell, and he's flown off somewhere secret....I really hope this is all temporary and he comes bounding back to us. We need people like Brian in this world, for all the good work he does, music and otherwise, and his positive presence. . Thankyou for your video selection of Brian's music, listening now..Take care, Talon.

Thanks fd. Glad to pass along such positivity. Hope Brian remembers these sentiments as well...

I know what you mean, talon. I found out maybe an hour ago and felt pretty gutted myself. Then I did something VERY unusual for me -- I sent Bri a tweet, telling him I was sending him love and prayers.  And a few minutes after I did that, I discovered that he had signed off social media this morning.  That's when I lost it.  I can't bear losing him just from Twitter, and thinking about losing him or anyone else, well, it just hurts, hurts, HURTS.  (I'm probably extra susceptible and weepy because my sister is quite ill in the hospital right now, but it's certainly a fact of life that hard times are part of the good and we have to accept it all.)  I like what you said about time passing in a heart beat or a song.  It's always been music that has blessed my life so I definitely appreciate the three beauties that you included in you post.

OK, now for a listen and then a deep breath to continue this journey.

Sorry you are in a tough place as well. All positivity I can muster I will send your way as well!

I just went to iTunes to see if the first two were available for purchase and they do not come up at all! Were they not released? Are then not possible to get legally? Why? Talon do you know? Anyone?

That's because as of right now this moment both of Brian's solo albums are out of print. They never made it to iTunes. For awhile they have been working on a big box set of Brian's solo material which will hopefully rectify that but I don't know when that would be released. It would hopefully be as (mostly) complete as Roger's recent set "The Lot" which despite some errors and not a heckuva lot of rarities did at least reprint all of his solo albums and singles. It's a shame because there are some wonderful songs on both albums!
