Adam Lambert 24/7 News

Ole !

Great! I was hoping this would happen -- although since it's not yet official, I'll just say "fingers crossed!" It just makes sense.

Hoping that Adam's singles will be chart-topping smashes over the coming months, and so I guess this could mean he will be having a GOOD problem juggling both his solo and Q+AL careers!

Thanks for posting, Glitzy!

That would be excellent if it's true. South Americans have been crying out for QAL to perform there.

That would be grea at !!!

S. America has also been crying out for Adam to tour there. If Adam's Album is out this summer, this will give his fans a chance to get used to the new music, and learn all the words, so that they can sing along with Adam, when he tours with it. So if he did a 6 or 7 week tour with Queen, he could take a rest, and then go on his own tour in November or December or even January. Of course this is all speculation, there are so many "if's". But I do believe that Brian and Roger are seriously considering another tour, this one has been so successful because of Adam. It's an amazing combination, fans get to hear Adam sing, plus they get to hear Queen all on the same ticket. I think that Roger and Brian are pacing themselves, and if they are not already, should be doing some type of yoga or other less strenuous exercises.

Brian, Roger and all the band deserve some well-deserved R&R before they take on another tour but it would be so great if they could perform in South America. It certainly sounds promising!

Well September is 7 months away, they should be rested by then.

Warner Brothers will probably have something to say about whether Adam can do it this year or not, with his own album pending. That is his first priority. Everyone wants to see him promoting his new album on TV, which might be hard to do if he is out of the country in the Fall.

It better not affect Adam's solo career.

Haha!
Queen is Brian and Roger's main focus but they do a lot of other things apart from Queen. Very busy boys and Brian may even enter politics.

I'm for Adam's music and career first. I'd rather see Adam touring with his new music, not continuing with Queen. The Original High!

If this turns out to be real, and seems like it certainly could be, I'm sure everyone involved knows exactly what they're doing.....Including Adam....

Touring with Queen took a lot of momentum out of the release of Trespassing. We'll never know if things could have been different if Adam was in the US doing more promo instead of touring with Queen. Hopefully the same mistake won't be made this time.

I totally agree Glitzylady people need to stop questioning and just trust Adam and his new label.

Woah! "Queen Argentina" tweeting it makes it seem pretty certain. :)

Some thoughts...

Adam did 6 tour dates over a less than two week period with Queen in early summer 2012.. plus an additional week or so for rehearsal etc..

I personally don't believe that was the main issue with Trespassing.. He did personal appearances and promo from February/March onward, with the break for the Queen concerts in Europe in mid to late June and mid July.. and then right back to more of his own shows..

I would seriously hate to see any blame placed on his association with Queen, for anything.... They've been HUGE for him and so supportive of him in so many ways.. The experience alone that he's gained is invaluable.. And the prestige of being a part of one of the most famous and iconic bands in the world.... And obviously the pure and absolute joy that he must feel every night at every concert is irreplaceable...

He's releasing a single in April, perhaps another one before the album release in June or so... And then the summer to promo the album.. He'll most likely start promo just before the single drops, and it will continue for months... And we have no idea what he might be doing in addition to that..

This rumored South American thing (whatever it involves..) in September.. with Queen, could certainly coincide with some promo for Adam himself there too.. It all gets his name out there to potential new audiences and buyers of his music.. Name recognition. His appearance on the BBC New Years Eve show was huge for him..And brought his voice and talent to a whole new audience in the UK. It was perfect!!! As are these concerts that are happening now.

We don't have any info other than this posting from Queen Argentina.. We don't know what it might involve.. How many shows, perhaps TV appearances.. It remains to be seen..

I'm just as anxious for Adam's new music as everyone else, but I also see the value in spending some of his time performing with the men of the legendary band Queen.. He's learned so much from them... Invaluable, priceless, experience.. And exposure. I think they are doing it for Adam, and because of Adam, just as much as they're doing these shows because they just plain enjoy doing something they love.. And they're helping him along the way.. Dr. Bri and Roger have said they know Adam's solo career is his top priority.. And I would imagine they would not want to jeopardize it by taking up too much of Adam's time..

It sounds awesome if it indeed happens... For all involved.. Not to mention happy for the fans who have been pleading for some shows in South America....

It would be epic if Queen plays Adam's new music in So. Amer. tour.

Adam's mgt company and Warner Bros would not negotiate an agreement that's not a win/win/win for all involved. Adam is now "a product" and you know what THAT means: protect and promote "the brand" and rake in the money. Adam is, in fact, so big now that I (an ordinary person) can't even begin to conceive of the scope of his possibilities. THUNDEROUS!!!

@glitzylady .... wonderful post.

I don't think Adam's involvement with Queen had anything to do with Trespassing. That's ludicrous in the extreme!

Adam's longer involvement with Queen re this 2014-2015 concert tour has been immeasurable in terms of promoting Adam, and hopefully, there'll be more of it in South America.

Maybe it will be a short tour in South America i.e. concerts in the major cities. Surely they wouldn't disrupt Adam's solo career. Can't wait to hear more news!

I hope this rumour is true...South American fans have been waiting patiently for 6 years for Adam to perform there in some shape or form.. I wouldn't class it as a new tour, but as a continuation of the current one after a break....It would probably only be a few dates over 2 or 3 weeks. He'll still have several months to promote his new single and album before that, maybe a few one off concerts or festivals.

When UK and Europe heard Adam sing with Queen, they had no idea who he was, (except for some of his own fans). After they heard him every store was sold out of all his cd's, and had to be stocked again. This has been one of the proven ways that Adam has benefitted from being in the tour with Queen. Another benefit that Adam has earned, is his total change in his performances, when he started the tour, he wasn't as relaxed, he was being too careful not to anger the Freddie fans. Now he has relaxed into his own style of singing the songs, he is so comfortable now on the stage with Queen, they let him do anything he wants , within reason, and he is so relaxed and totally at ease, and so full of confidence that he knows he can sing anything anywhere. He has definitely evolved during this tour, and it has been the best thing he could ever have done. I also thank Roger and Brian for giving him this chance.

Adam your solo career is a dead end, making forgettable pop garbage. Stay with Queen! It's much better then failing to break into the Pop genre. You should make a Rock album with Queen.

Totally agree with you, Glitzy & HK fan! Adam is very good at multitasking & I'm sure he will do whatever it takes to promote the new album. He certainly did all he could do to promote Trespassing wityh countless interviews with receptive DJs, but the higher ups wouldn't play him. Not Adam's fault or for lack of his promotion. Queen has given him a huge world platform that gave him credibility as well as polish, maturity and world class musicians to back his magnificent talent. If anything, his alliance with Queen will help sell this album and give him the filled arenas and notoriety on a scale that he otherwise would not have. Queen has the funds and contacts for a first class production that will also help Adam as he grows into his personal upper level niche. This is an incredible learning experience for him. His day is

I agree with everyone that says this experience with Queen has helped Adam tremendously! It has also revitalized the members of Queen; they were so fortunate to have the multitalented Adam Lambert front their band. The wonderful thing is that Adam can sing so many different types of songs with such heart. He is one of the most talented young singers in the world, in my opinion.

I believe this time around all signs are pointing to Adam's great success! Did I mention that it does not hurt that Adam has the most supportive loving fans in the world; who always has his back in every way. Adam knows this; and I tell you; he is so very grateful.

I think fan support is key to an artist's overall support. The Glamberts are the best; and everyone knows this; and so do friends and foes! I guess record companies are banking on fan loyalty and support also. They can't help but see how much Adam has; and just how loved he is!!!

The leader of the Glam Nation is the best! Adam M. Lambert; I love and admire you as a wonderful human being!!!!

I was going to post a lengthy comment, but I just read some great posts that said exactly what I was going to say. Surely Adam's own management and Queen's management will make all this scheduling work out. Adam's people certainly realize that his association with Queen is invaluable and ongoing exposure for Adam. The QAL tour has gained him many new fans worldwide who will likely buy Adam's own music. I hope they do go to South America. They've been begging for Adam for years, and now they might get Adam AND Queen!

Bottom line, nobody in either Adam's camp or Queen's camp wants to see Adam not do well. It's mutually beneficial to both entities.

@5:29 AM

What a beautiful post; I really enjoyed reading it. I feel the same way, but, you put into words what I was thinking! So many nice and informative posts on the board today as is quite usual for Mr. Lambert; he truly deserves all praise for his wonderful talents.

I cannot wait for TOH to drop!

I think this ongoing experience is going a very long way in improving Adam's status as a solo artist. He has the best mentors in the world. Fortunately, they all learn from each other. Adam may be young; but I believe he is wise beyond his years!! I imagine he is such a pleasure to work with!!! This man just brings joy to the world!

Since this QAL tour has been such a win for Queen as well, it would be nice to see them play Adam's new music. Adam can also make some changes to his wardrobe looks since a lot of his fans follow his daily activities on Internet. One of the factors of Adam's popularity is the social media by his fans being active on Twitter, facebook, fansites, youtube, etc. It would be a great advantage if one knows how to use this medium.

I follow some people who are extremely successful just being very active on Internet. They aren't on tv, radio, or prints but they are doing extremely well using Internet to promote themselves or their products.

At the time of Trespassing everybody said RCA and Adam know what they are doing, RCA will promote Adam. As soon as Adam split from RCA everybody was calling RCA names and saying they didn't know what they were doing and didn't do enough for Adam.

Now everybody is saying Warner and Adam know what they doing, Warner will promote Adam.

We'll see.

Some of these know it all fans really should apply for a job at Warner's or as Adam's personal assistant. Let us know if you succeed! (jk)

We will never know if the first QAL tour slowed down the momentum on Trespassing. We do know it certainly didn't help with the promo of Trespassing as many thought it would. Let's hope things are different this time around.

Adam needs to keep touring with Queen and do an album with them.

I really don't want an album with Queen. I want Adam's solo music.

It's not about what you want or what anyone else wants its about what Adam wants. And if he wants to do an album with Queen I fully support 100%

Trust The Bitch!

@9:45
Adam's sales of all his cd's have blown off the shelves in all the countries that he sang with Queen. For the first time for many, people are hearing Adam sing. They want his music, and the have been buying it. It's because of the exposure of being with Queen.

Adam has made his choice, at least for now, something has to be sacrificed. He wisely chose his career, over any personal life he might have had. It is sad in a way, but hopefully his success makes up for some of it.
But being a super world wide star, has it's down side too.
"I'm naked and I'm far from home"
Adam doesn't like being alone at home, and all the close friends in the world, can't make up for it. Helen of York

11:45 AM, that didn't happen during Trespassing and recently selling less CDs than a best of Bowie CD on Amazon UK isn't a very good measure of sales. If you have actual sales numbers please provide them.

I don't remember Adam saying he doesn't like to be home alone.

IF ... this is what ADAM wants then I'm all for it ... IF NOT ... then we won't have to worry ... will we?? My greatest hope is that when ADAM does go on tour for TOH ... his backup musicians will be the best in the business ... maybe not as brilliant as Queen but at least as talented as ADAM!! Poor backup certainly won't help to promote the album ... JMO ...

Adam has said many times that he hates being home alone. He is a people person, and wants companionship , just someone there. He has mentioned this in many reviews.
After NYE, in the UK they couldn't keep his cd's on the shelves. They sold out immediately and had to restock. The NYE show opened up the eyes and ears of people all over Europe and the UK, and they wanted his music. I don't think it happened here in the US. In Europe and the UK, Queen fans hadn't heard of him before. When he did his own tours over there it was his fans who filled the smaller venues. But the millions of Queen fans didn't know him.

Boy if his back up is as talented as Adam they sure will be fantastic! I think he will be getting some new musicians at least. Been a while since he needed them some may have had to get other jobs of course they have to pay the bills. Some may want to go back to Adam. I also hope he gets a great band. I think WB may help him out on that I don't know. But I do know we need to back Adam with all we have with this new album.
Trust him he has a lot on his plate he does not need a lot of criticism. He will work very hard to make it all work out well I am sure. Adam did have a very good surge of sales after the NYE show and that seems have cont. now for a while trespassing is nearly three years old and it's great to see more people discovering how good it was. But on to TOH. I think this promises to be a great album. Adam doing so great right now. I so very proud of this crazy talented guy! Sue

Sue, it's great to see you posting again! Hope that you are feeling better these days... Sophie-Michelle

I am pretty sure that Tommy has been performing in a band, this last year, as you say they have to pay the bills. Terrance has been working a lot this last year also. Being musicians, they all have to find other jobs, it's just the way the business runs. BUT don't be surprised if you see Tommy still the lead guitarist. Adam won't actually need a band until he tours again, and that might be months away, since the album wont be released until summer. I wish Brian would help him get a new guitarist, being in the field Brian probably knows a lot of guitarists world wide.

Sophie M. Thanks I finally have a new phone. I have been very ill still having some real stuggles just have not felt like commenting. Also did not want people to think I did not support Adam anymore. If I comment or not I'll aalways support him anyway I can. Doubt I'll ever get to another concert. But, looking so forward to new music and always check out his vids. Try and comment more often. Sue

I hope Warner insists on another lead guitarist. I think Tommy is always going to be stuck like glue.

Adam should have members of his band who are like him, friendly, ever-smiling with positive aura.
Drop Tommy & Ashley who both never ever know how to smile or enjoy being on stage with Adam.
They are useless and liability to Adam's positive aura.

QAL has been a win-win situation. All the great music we've been privileged to hear and see at the shows has been a God-send. Adam has made some great moves personally and career-wise. JMO but Adam chooses whom to spend his precious personal time with and his multi-tasking career-wise has been amazing. I will certainly support his new music offerings and will be drooling if Queen ever releases some of what they have recorded at the shows. No downsides for us fans from what I can see.
