Concert Review From Nashville Scene: "Queen + Adam Lambert Have a Ball at Bridgestone Arena" by The Spin

"This was Adam Lambert’s first chance to win over the crowd, and he didn't waste no time at all: In a black leather vest-and-pants combo, paired with sparkling red shoes that looked straight from the costume department of a production ofThe Wizard of Oz, he prowled and preened and landed every note."

"If anyone walked in doubting that Lambert could handle Mercury’s vocal gymnastics, he stuck landing after landing to prove them wrong"

"We'd have stayed as long as they wanted to keep playing."

And a few more EXCERPTS: Be sure to go to the embedded link and read the ENTIRE review..
"Lambert dominated the stage during “Killer Queen” and “Another One Bites the Dust,” but always showed complete reverence to Taylor and particularly May, being in closer proximity to the latter. They shared a similar chemistry to what May had with Mercury: Lambert played the ultimate entertainer, using every square inch of the stage and giving his all to get a rise from the crowd, while May would saunter down the ramp, playing one of his heroic solos with a casual ease that we're lucky if we can muster for a walk down the street. Taylor, who always had that sexy fallen angel look with his long, blonde hair, has also aged sublimely into an elder statesman of rock. He took the mic for the perennial fan favorite “I’m in Love With My Car,” segueing into the swampy “Get Down Make Love,” which had Lambert slithering across the stage while a cartoon version of a red light district unfolded on the screen behind him."
"...Lambert — dressed in what we'd call a glam Beetlejuice suit — returned to the stage, working us into a frenzy with “Somebody to Love” (while May used a selfie stick to capture a panoramic view of us singing along). If anyone walked in doubting that Lambert could handle Mercury’s vocal gymnastics, he stuck landing after landing to prove them wrong, taking on everything from indelible mega-hits — “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” “Under Pressure” (with Taylor handling David Bowie’s part) and “I Want To Break Free” — to catalog classics like "Stone Cold Crazy" to a breathtaking rendition of the power ballad "Who Wants to Live Forever" (because if there's anything a power ballad should be, it's breathtaking)."

Great review! I listened to it on audio stream & the joint was jumpin' .. they were getting a little antsy because of the delay but this article explains that the fans had difficulty getting there because of the rain so QAL gave them a chance to get there!!Darn nice of them if you ask me!! Only two more concerts & this North American tour will be over .. really hate to see it end .. even streaming is a blast!! They begin the European leg of this tour in November & then on to AU & NZ Feb. 2018!! Hope there are streams from there too!! Really look forward to these concerts!! Love all you Glamberts everywhere for sharing with us who can't go!! Thank you ALL from the bottom of my grateful heart!! Light 'n Love
