The British band delivered hit after hit. Singer Adam Lambert is Freddie Mercury, George Michael and Robbie Williams in personal union
Hamburg. "Moin Moin, Hamburg", greets Queen guitarist Brian May after one hour concert, the 12,000 fans on Thursday at the O2 World. He must go step on the brakes, come back to the ground. For the gray-haired English Wuschelkopf, although astrophysicist, not really so the draw type, not even during his long solo. Comfortable he sits on a stool and sings with the audience and the - at least on the video screen - immortal Freddie Mercury "Love Of My Life". Get First of air.
Because until then to see Brian May, drummer Roger Taylor and her tour musicians (including Taylors son Rufus Tiger) amused while, as the new singer Adam Lambert pulls out all the stops a rock opera. The strong, not always well-controlled start with "One Vision", "Stone Cold Crazy", "Another One Bites The Thirst" and "Fat Bottomed Girls" is the perfect foundation on which Lambert, 2009 as the finalist of the US talent show "American idol" may become known romp.
Adam Lambert has 33 years, half as old as Brian May and Roger Taylor and a real show talent. His voice is variable, alabaster body is very flexible, his libido meters, so the point of his Hüftschwünge in knarzengen leather dress, up in the red. Again and again he grimaces, moves to be distributed to the mouth of champagne into the crowd, bathed in the crowd and lolls lasciviously at "Seven Seas Of Rhye" on a chaise lounge, excitedly air zufächelnd. Since May is still so much to bend the strings of his self-built, pre-recorded with a coin "Red Special" guitar, as Taylor is still so grim tanning his skins, Lambert is the dynamic element of this show.
"I Want To Break Free", "Under Pressure", "Save Me", "Who Wants To Live Forever", "Tie Your Mother Down" and other classics determine this greatest hits evening. If you like, queen lives from yesterday, even though 2008, released the album "The Cosmos Rocks" with Paul Rodgers on vocals. But that does not matter as "I Want It All", "Show Must Go On" "Bohemian Rhapsody" or "Radio Ga Ga" put simply does not collect dust. The dazzling pop diva Lady Gaga, incidentally, was also some as Queen singer talking years ago, but Adam Lambert is already pretentious and extroverted enough - as if someone had the DNA of Freddie Mercury, George Michael and Robbie Williams new and screwed into a singer transplanted from Indianapolis. Perhaps Lambert exaggerates every now and then, some visitors, as you can hear on the bus, he is also "to tuckig" as striking a practicing homosexual. Regardless, it's fun to watch him.
At the finals after nearly 150 minutes "We Will Rock You" and "We Are The Champions" Adam Lambert salutes as Coming to America in Leopard Dress with Crown's subjects. "God Save The Queen" comes from the band, and the hall light comes on. The show might like to go on in this remarkable form yet.

Curious translation ..... Brian's guitar playing is not pre-recorded .... & Roger is still so grim tanning his skins??
However, it's a good review! <3
