As July ends, so does a fantastic series of concerts by Queen and Adam across North America. It will be a summer that many ALLers will never forget! Q+AL take a few weeks break before heading off to Asia and then for concerts Down Under. If the reception there is anything like it was here, Q+AL can expect to get some major loving!

Enjoy the chat!

    Ron – y’know, you might want to send that fireman vid to someone –

    A mighty fine idea, I’d say.
    … Bless you, ulti.

    Well, you heard the lady, Ron . . . Send it! Grin

    (very funny video, btw Wink)

    Does anyone else have a headache from:

    Oh I was born to love you,
    With every little beat of my heart,
    Oh I was born to love you,
    Every single day of my life……

    Over and over. I don’t even know if those words are correct, but that’s what my brain is serenading me with!

  3. Kiwi says:

    I “liked” your song Ron, that was one of my favourites many years ago. Thanks for reminding me of it.

    good pic of arm

    Well, there ya go mils. The Tat. Finally.

    . . . Thinking it looks pretty damn good, actually.

    Then again, I am a little worked up over here.

    Take for instance:

    – the Boy’s enticing Selphie (thanks to nkd)…

    – his mic lovin’ Sherwins … (see Tokyo thread)

    – copious glistening in each video … (thank you Tokyo heat & humidity) …

    cwm‘s astute & rather enthusiastic discovery of the gaping WATC jacket…

    glambot‘s toiling effort & priceless delivery of zippergate …

    risky‘s keen observation that Adam is getting more ‘gorgeous-er’ by the concert …

    asif bringing forth Boy’s now infamous werkin’ the mic session in SCC…

    Ron‘s fireman pole dancing video that ulti & I think is perfectly suited for ‘someone’ to recreate starring himself … (a gal can wish)

    luval‘s telepathic ability to read my mind re: Adam’s “effin’ incredible face” …

    rs‘s insight into the inarguable & ALLer accepted fact that Adam’s IWBTLY was sung directly to Us, his fans…
    (I tend to think his “I love you” was specific to me, actually)

    ulti‘s merciless pics, IG’s, & vids, etc. that she continues to persist in posting.

    . . . Need I say more?

    mils … No need to even bother directing me to the corner.
    I’m already there… Camped out. Thrown up a tent. Started a campfire.

    *Whew*. What a night. Drunken Razz

  5. rs says:

    rs‘s keen observation that Adam is only getting ‘gorgeous-er’ by the concert …

    Of course it goes without saying that I totally agree with this statement……but it wasn’t mine Smile

    I was just watching IWBTLY for the third time this morning and I began to think what would have happened if he had sung this song on the small stage when I was just a few feet from him, knowing that it represents his feelings for us. I really don’t think that I would have survived his eyebeams directed at me while singing this song. In Love

    Wow what great pictures from Tokyo,

    Vintage Trouble is playing at The Blue Note in Tokyo. So glad to see he got together with Ty. mils is going to love it.

    He is go goofy with the Venus pics, awesome that Dr. Bri was
    there too, although it looks like he was flipping us off LOL

    The selphie is breathtaking, and comments on both pics are priceless.

    They are having fun and relaxing for the next round.

    All the comments on IWBTLY and that Adam is singing it to us has me wanting to listen again with that in mind.

    Such fun around here yesterday and early this morning. Love it.

    Whew!! After watching that incredibly direct Tokyo SCC floorbert/mic full body assault on his senses, I have to renew my concern for Dr. Bri!!! Hope his marriage is unassailable!

    And, I know we are all concerned about OUR inevitable withdrawal after the last concert, but HOW ON EARTH IS BRIAN GOING TO GIVE UP ADAM????

    I don’t think he really can or will. Neither will Roger.

    QueenOnLine On Tour: Following the North American Tour 2014 – Part 1

    by Wilki Amieva

    Nick asked me to do some tidbit pieces about the remaining Queen + Adam Lambert tour dates in North America. As Houston was my first gig on the run, after a 5400 miles flight from Buenos Aires via Miami and 120 minutes of a nerve-wrecking World Cup semifinal, I decided to play it safe, and wait until I had seen a couple of shows before I write my first impressions. So here it is – a double Texan special, with a side of mac ‘n’ cheese.

    OH! WOW!! This person has seen many Q+AL SHOWS and wrote about them. So far they are rosy.
    I haven’t finished reading it yet.
    I’ll go and read it now.

    Wow, lots of articulate verbosity here Grin …I missed a couple days for RL and about four pages!

    RL has bad and good…my mother diagnosed with another health issue, this one more serious; my younger son off to law school after a week of automotive crisis of multiple repairs when the mechanic wouldn’t listen to me saying ‘it is the alternator’, because I don’t have a Y chromosome…finally, duh, they figured out that it was…the alternator.
    Razz
    (No, not our usual mechanic, this was where son goes to school.)

    Finally (hooray!) my son proposed and she accepted!
    Heart
    Wonder if it was because my usually cheap son sprang for almost a carat…?
    Grin
    I like her a LOT, will definitely come to love her, and she speaks French.
    Yes

    So…
    “After Adam’s spewing in Killer Queen, we are never going to look at that tat on his upper arm in the same way”

    I totally thought of that immediately after the first time he spewed.
    Don’t love the tat, don’t love the spewing.
    Razz
    No H8!
    Grin

    The backstage lists…yum for everything on Brian’s list! I loved reading your choices…got to thinking…here would be mine:
    Evian water
    Lipton yellow label tea bags and a kettle, with La Perruche rough sugar cubes
    Selection of cheeses and nuts: brie, cabécou, and a sharp cheddar; pecans and cashews.
    Small gala apples and bartlett pears
    Those wonderful little red seedless grapes that are almost crisp and taste almost like cherries.
    Peaches if in season, peeled and sliced with cream to pour over
    Assorted melons, cut into bite-sized pieces
    French biscotte (not biscotti; French biscotte is like lighter melba toast)
    Sliced jambon de Paris (Paris ham)
    Rustic pâté de campagne
    Dry sausage
    Moutarde de Meaux (the wonderful grainy kind in a crock)
    Real baguettes, not the kind that most supermarkets sell. Something with some chew.
    Dark chocolate, preferably from Colombia, 65% cacao
    Wine: a nice vouvray, chilled
    Banfi Rosa Regale wine, also chilled (the only wine that is really excellent with chocolate)

    And the makings for a kir royal.
    (Ron, chéri, you will have to join me backstage!)

    Loving the comments and references to the past…we are getting so nostalgic lately!
    Smile
    That Lee Cherry photo was intriguing…wonder if it could in fact be the album cover, or something like it?
    And wonder if that geometric thing that Adam posted could be inspiration for a new tattoo?

    HOW ON EARTH IS BRIAN GOING TO GIVE UP ADAM????

    riskylady, been thinking about this same thing. Do they have a contract? A gentlemens’ agreement? I mean this is the last grand tour most likely for Queen so does Adam go along with whatever happens around the corner? Now that he has the arena/stadium venues under his belt can he possibly go back to before?

    I really want what’s best for him. And I still say (IMO) he should milk this tour for as long as he can. Get that money made, stash it away having it available for whatever he wants (his own tour), Yes, he needs to make his own music but for now while the “guys” are still healthy keep on doing what he’s doing. And Brian has said they are getting soooo many requests for the show.
