EXCERPTS FROM THE REVIEW/BLOG
"Info: I’m a Queen fan. A big Queen fan. Have been since I can remember. Seeing May and Taylor on the big stage is a wonderful thing for me. Nothing else really matters...I went to a number of shows on the two Queen and Paul Rodgers tours and enjoyed them immensely; that though always felt like an odd combination; a blues rock singer, singing songs from a band that were as far away from blues as Brian May is from joining a Boxing Day Hunt. That an American Idol runner up, half the age of May and Taylor, should be any better is laughable of course…yet weirdly…somehow…Lambert is."
"As for Lambert? Well he doesn’t have the rock background or rock pedigree and I for one was highly sceptical of what he could bring to Queen. Yet as it turns out he is a front man who not only looks the part but also possesses all the showman qualities needed. Most importantly of all he has one hell of a voice."
"2 hours and 15 minutes that blew the January blues away. If you have your doubts then take it from me Adam Lambert should not be underestimated. Yes by fronting Queen he has undoubtedly done his profile no harm at all in Europe. Yet he has also done the same across the pond for Queen. Lambert is breaking down barriers in America in more ways than one and it is great to see a new showman in town."
"I was certainly worried by this collaboration initially but now I just want to go and see them again....... How long this particular partnership will continue we don’t know but if it means more shows like this then bring it on."

I love how in the comment section this reviewer said that even as a straight male even he began to think Adam is gorgeous.
Hell Yah!!!:) Our GFG is the best in this generation.

My god! What a coupe of shows in London!
My heart is bursting from all the wonderful things old fans, new fans and reviewers our saying about our man!
What a great review! LOVE reading about a die-hard Queen fan won over and singing Adam's praises as the "real deal"...and "...shouldn't be underestimated". Ahhhh, yes... Ain't it for sure the truth.
He has a hilarious writing style...found myself chuckling almost the whole way through. The comments section was just as fun to read...
Seems to me this writer/reviewer is the real deal, too! ;)
There have been NO negative reviews so far on this leg of the tour - way to go, Brits!!!! :-)))
I think it strange that these reviewers act like they have never heard or seen Adam perform before. He has been with Queen a while now. Do they not have Youtube?
9:56 PM, there was one but you had to be a subscriber to read it and of course no one wants to share a negative review.
