Adam Lambert 24/7 News

Good to get the latest news directly from Dr Bri. I just followed him on Twitter.

Yay! They've started rehearsals! The creativity is starting to flow.

Adam full of ideas? HAHAH! Sounds like the Adam I know and love.

I just ache inside knowing I can't see them in person. WAHH!

@DrBrianMay: And @adamlambert is in crackin' form ! What a voice !!! What a bloke !!! Bri https://twitter.com/drbrianmay/status/472141254047059968

The excitement level as risen once again. I hope Brian keeps us updated.

should be has not as

They probably had their own list ready, but just checking with the fans to see if they left anything out that we really wanted to hear.
I am hoping for some new ones. Brian seems very stoked about starting the rehearsals.

That gives them 2 and 1/2 weeks to rehearse, possibly with week ends off. Adam is a quick learner, and knows most of the songs already, except for putting a little bit of Adam into them, where it is acceptable.

@Lambertlust Thanks for posting the additional Dr. Bri tweet. He must have tweeted that after I posted this thread. Away from my computer at the moment so will post as soon as I can!!

I have to say, I LOVE Brian May!!

I guess I better get out all my old Queen albums.

Great tweet from Brian! Nobody is going to convince me that he doesn't consider Adam to be someone very special.

Countdown!

DRG

I'm not sure why, but THIS JUST HAS ME BEYOND EXCITED!!!!!!! I'm going to the Chicago concert, and it seemed like so far away, but not it's only a couple weeks off. Dr. Bri's tweets just seem to make it more real. :)

He said YAY!!!
Good on ya, Dr Bri!
:))))))

Not surprised here that Adam is full of ideas ha...ha. And "A little different" sounds intriguing. I am sure they'll strive to create a setlist that's fresh and innovative and exciting.

I need to do some "homework" now - just like Adam probably did his - to be able to answer Brian's tweet constructively. I just assume he really wants to know what I have to say. (lol)

Geez...this is driving me crazy! When it comes to my excitement level I may have to revise the scale at some point!!! Can't wait.

Yes Mr. Brian we are here waiting for you in Canada indeed!!!:)

Whatever you sing with Adam is cool and we all gonna rock anyway he!he!

From Brian's website:

FIRST FULL DAY REHEARSAL - TV INTERVIEW FOR AUSTRALIA
Direct link to this

Well, we had a great first full day of rehearsal today (29 May) for our imminent Queen and Adam Lambert tour.

We have some new mountans to climb, but it sounds pretty good so far !

Roger, myself, Rufus, Neil and Spike had a couple of days on our own while Adam was acclimatising and taking care of British business, just getting the gear and ourselves into shape. So we were ready for Adam today, and he's in great form and great voice. Many interesting decisions to make. And a process of getting fit and ready in mind and body … it's been a while !


We also did a lengthy (and probably quite interesting) TV interview for Australia. The Oz leg seems a long way away right now, but soon enough it will be upon us ! Amazing to be reaching for the stars again on this scale.

See yo'all out there !

5:21 here, oops, that direct link under the title above is the hot link to Brian's website. Looks different copy/pasted here, is NOT a link to an interview.

Sounds like Brian May is a happy camper! ^_^ He's making feel his love for Adam.
I'm assuming a Bloke is a compliment.

Think he will grant Adam's wish for flames coming out of his head-piece? Wouldn't that be a showstopper!

5:36PM
"Bloke" is another word for man, guy, fellow, dude, chap. The word "bloke" is often used in the UK and Australia.

@Anon 5:21 PM
Thanks for the tip!!!

Got a call from Live nation for my t-shirt sizes!! I am so excited. Didn't know I would get one!!!!!!!!! Come on July 10Th

@5:50 PM Thanx for the response.

@6:11 PM Awesome!

I'm up for anything but please no flames coming out of Adam's head-piece! Keep that gorgeous hair intact!!!

Aww he obviously has nothing but respect for Adam!
Can't wait till he comes to Aussie!

What head piece? The only one I've seen on him is a top hat.

This is so exciting to read. I like the fact we are hearing directly from Dr. Brian. He seems to have such love and respect for Adam and the feeling is mutual. Whoever put them together in the first place to perform probably did not realize what a special and dynamic combination it would turn out to be. Whatever they are planning will be spectacular and the talk of all the concerts crossing America this summer. There are a lot of creative juices flowing there, like a volcano ready to explode pouring down on all the people waiting to see them perform.

Refers to Zodiac pre Idol days.
Adam wanted flames.

Ta ! yourself Dr. May.....you and your crew are giving Adam his Masters Degree in management of a long standing career in the world of music......JAK

As a student, you learn from the best, from the masters no matter the profession. And Adam has the best teachers in Brian May and Roger Taylor. And I am sure that Adam has a few things that he can teach these masters of rock music. What a great combination.

Well said, JAK @ 8:14!! Adam WILL have a long standing career ... as we all know. But, it's certainly good to learn all he can from the masters.

Dr. Brian M thinks the world of Adam and Adam him. You only have to be around them a few minutes just seeing them together on TV to see that. He glows around them Adam he happy and just seems to really care for them as people as well as fabulous musicians they seem the same about Adam. They sold out Madison Square Garden nearly 25,000 people almost immediately as Brian said in an article. Then they added another believe in NJ and sold that mostly out quickly. Plus other venues as well. Someone explain how you do that when hardly anyone knows about the tour except us on here in out little world. Someone said that onto three post back. The closer we get to these wonderful concerts the more the same old people will pour water in them and especially Adam. Try as they may these concerts will be once in a life time experiences they will be special. These concerts not something that will happen every two three years. They are for this big of a scale of a tour a once in a life time thing. That's not to say Adam and some point will not perform are do music to some extent in the future. They really love working together. Adam seems like he will be working right along side of them to put this special show together. I always knew that would be the case Adam always been so full of ideas. We saw that the first time on idol he was fantastic and unmatched for his imagination to this day on Idol for me. So excited to see these wonderful musicians queen and Adam burn up the concert stages with brilliance this summer. I luckily thank God get to see one.

What a 'bloke' indeed! That's our ADAM!

So great Dr Bri gives OZ a shout.
We can hardly wait.

I just did a little homework on listening to some of the "early" Queen music. Their music is genius, and, really, this is a huge opportunity for Adam to tour extensively with them. They are amazing musicians.

I tweeted back to Dr. Bri some suggestions for songs I'd like to hear them perform imagining Adam's vocals on some of their earlier music as Brian hinted there will be earlier music on this tour....there were at least 10 of them...Killer Queen, White Queen, Doin' Alright, Liar and others. All such great songs. The most impt. Song to hear Adam sing, though, for me is WWTLF:))))

I'm totally happy with anything they wish to perform just as long as I get to see and hear Adam up on that stage!

I'll be there too,dang wish we could all go and flail together .,,. rose petal

Rose petal, we'll be there with you and the others in spirit. ;)

Rose Petal that would be so much fun. I will make me a sign that says Rose Petal. I am in section 105 right side of the stage first row. Maybe we can find out if there are any preconcert parties and meet.

7:20, Back when Adam was doing The Zodiac Show before Idol, he wanted to perform the song "Crawl Tbrough Fire" wearing a hat of some sort that spouted real flames. Needless to say, the idea was nixed. BTW, you can see him performing CTF on YouTube (without the flaming hat). It's quite a performance, vintage Adam.

5:56
That would be awesome ..... I'm meeting some friends in Dallas ,Queen fans but think Adam is the bomb .... We'll be on floor sec 16 row F ... I would love to meet someone from this site .... If u have per party info let me know and I'll try to get my group there ..., if not I'll look for your sign....I have long brown hair and will prob be wearing some crazy hippie cloths (I usually do) ....anybody else with pre party info please let us know ..... rose petal

9.54 I thought I signed I see I did not. It was Sue. Rose pedal I hope you have a wonderful time. I hope every loyal fan here does. After the awful year I had and still having I looking so forward to Adam and Queen. I feel it will be just fantastic. Adam is full of ideas and good ones. Look at the great job he did in idol and Glee. I read in an article he been doing sound tracks or something for TV shows. Sue

@Sue
Thanks, I agree with what u said above. I believe the respect and admiration is mutual between Brian, Rodger and Adam. I hope u have great time as well and I'm so glad u r well enough to go .....I'll be thinking of u and waiting to hear about your experience .,,, rose petal
