lol guys it was a tabloid that originally reported this Adam has since debunked it.

@adamlambert
Oooh them clever reporters takin my quotes outta context.... I haven't confirmed any guest appearances. I was talking about the EMA'S. :)

Anyways enjoy the new BTIKM vid.

ETA: He may do another one-off concert like the EMAs again but I don't think he'll tour with them. He has to start building era 2 of Trespassing

BTIKM video is wonderful.

As for another one-off with Queen, sure that's okay, but touring is just a colossal waste of time that'll give good exposure all right, if being the new Paul Rodgers is a good thing...

Sir does have a point, he meant another Paul Rodgers like "another Freddie replacement" because most fans will look any singer that way. Of course, that doesn't mean I wouldn't LOVE to see him tour with Queen.

Any fan of Queen that thinks May and Taylor should have "died" when Freddie did is, imo, full of horse shit, period.They were only in their 40's when Freddie died and they also wrote and sang.Did people really expect them to stop when Freddie passed away? :roll:

Thanks Wanted. That's how I understood Sir as well, re: the Rodgers comment.
MY point was that Lambert can do BOTH. I would KILL to hear him perform more of Queen's material live!
I also look forward to his OWN tour.

Hell, even the remaining members of The Doors approached Paul Rodgers at one point to replace Jim Morrison.
Mercury, Morrison, both ICONS but what about the other band members?
To quote Freddie (and May who co-wrote it) The Show Must Go On! :tiphat:

Actually Mumei, singing BOTH with Queen AND on his OWN tour, would be the OPPOSITE of reductive. It's :airquote:

additive.

I think too many people have too many opinions about something we have ZERO control over and almost the same amount of info.

I think BOTH a concert or two with Queen AND his own tour would be KILLAH!

For those who don't agree. fine, they don't have to listen, watch or attend.There are PLENTY of people in the world who will. :wink:

Look at the previous roster of guest singers Queen has had since Freddie's death.Plant, Rodgers, Elton, Jackson, George Michael, Bowie, etc...a veritable "who's who" of the industry.Why all the FLACK with Lambert? It wasn't HIM that asked...it was QUEEN. There isn't ONE person on ANY of these threads who knows BETTER than May and Taylor, who they want to sing for them and why.

THAT is MY objection to some of the whiny, crybaby comments. It's simply ridiculous is all.

To THOSE people I say:

I formatted your post for you. You should give it a try. It makes them easier to read and makes you look like less of a nut. And reductive is an in-joke that I'd expect a nutty stan like you to get!

And to be frank, Lambert could be doing anything and you would be in here defending him against imagined slights.

A "nutty stan" like me? :lol:

When did I ever deny it?
As far as defending LAMBERT against "perceived slights"...it isn't necessary.
My REAL meanings keep being misunderstood or misinterpreted. I've tried EVERY way I know to convey what I mean short of actually losing my cool at how THICK some people can be.So let me keep this simple.

1. Lambert is without question one of the most gifted male vocalists alive now.
2. He was invited by May and Taylor to sing at the EMAs in Dublin (and probably at another point in the future) He has a few folks griping about it when any sane, rational person would realize what an honor and a privilege it truly is. That is about MY respect for the remaining (performing) members of Queen
3. Some folks both IN his fandom and outside it feel an odd need to micromanage his career...It's just not needed and is fruitless.Utterly pointless.

And what do you mean defending him against perceived slights isn't necessary? That's your schtick on this board. It's what you do.

No one can be "the new Paul Rodgers" any more than they can be " the new Freddie Mercury". Nor does Lambert sound or perform exactly like either of them. He is his OWN artist with his own sound.His album, "Trespassing" will kick ass and I support any artistic endeavor.He is not a stupid man.Nor is he too young or inexperienced as a performer to know what he wants. He is HALF the age of May and Taylor however.His energy level is enormous.There is no way they'll do more than a handful of concerts. But as you agree, it IS great exposure. It's true that as a solo recording artist, this is only his second album.But unlike the members of Queen and Bad Company etc...he was never the lead singer of "a band" or a member of one. Yet we have SCADS of PRE-IDOL performances from him on page ONE of his OWN thread here.... It's uncharted territory and he will navigate it just fine without us "pearl clutching" As far as his denial of the "rumor"...it came about from an interview with Lyndsey Parker. Adam HIMSELF said they had a project in the works but that he had been asked by QUEEN (May & Taylor) NOT to say more than that. And no, he didn't say that he was their "new lead singer" either, hahaha! Be that as it may, even CNN News reported on it.Based on what Adam said, there WILL BE at least one more one-off with Queen. AND I am sure he will tour with Trespassing as well.

They moved on from Queen and did a lot of new music and guest appearances for a while before deciding they'd rather dedicate their lives to living in the past

Thanks for the reformatting but there ARE still some things about using the quote features and a couple other things that I've not learned yet. That hardly qualifies me as a "nut" though if it makes one feel somehow superior to "label" me, be my guest. I'm probably the most mature (as in "oldest") person to comment here and I'm secure in who I am. I've no need to build myself up by tearing others down.Nor am I unfamiliar with the disrespect often shown on the anonymous internet highway. I can assure you that I receive no such disrespect in person. From anyone.Ever. And if I sound a bit pissy right now...I've just spent the last week moving from Mexico to Las Vegas, unpacking, climbing stairs in the new home until every muscle in my body aches.etc. You are right about me defending Lambert from all the pissing and moaning. Because it's idiotic when all we've heard from the actual STUDIO recording of the album is ONE damn song.A song that though I happen to like, is what's known as a "soft roll out" in the music biz so not EVEN one that is necessarily destined for greatness, yet is already generating great buzz etc.This forum is NOT the only one I frequent. Thanks Mumei. Maybe one of these days when we have time and if you are so inclined, you can give me a quick tutorial on how to parse my posts. OK?

We were talking about a still hypothetical tour with Queen, not his one-off performance at the EMAs (which, again, was mediocre at best). It isn't about wanting to micromanage his career. If he is doing a tour with them, that is his and his management's decision. But my opinion of whether that's something I would be interested in is my own opinion; you don't need to come to his rescue and insist that it's a huge honor and that that somehow negates the fact that A) I don't think he sounds good on Queen songs, and B) Even if he did, I'd prefer he focus on his own material. And what is the point of your third comment, anyway? Do you think that since we do not have an effect on the direction his career takes, we shouldn't bother discussing it unless we're cheerleading it? And what do you mean defending him against perceived slights isn't necessary? That's your schtick on this board. It's what you do.

Acoustic BTIKM and WWFM from his Stockholm showcase the other day. Starts off a little shaky, and the mix should have brought up the background vocal a little, but pretty nice, I think! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_O82zW5 ... e=youtu.be
