Another month has arrived, the last one before Adam’s new album “Trespassing” will be released! February will hopefully see Adam’s lead single “Better Than I Know Myself” continue to gain airplay and sales. There should be a bump from the music video which is expected early this month. Meanwhile Adam will likely continue working on promo events in preparation for his upcoming album release, which is slated for March 20 here in the US. Perhaps with more promo being done ahead of the album release this time around, the next tour can begin by this summer? Enjoy the chat!

Update 2/4/2012: BTIKM music video was released Thursday night, feel quite certain we’ll be seeing plenty of it on VH1 in the next few weeks!

    Ah TLKC…. Enjoy and treasure every teeny weeny second of this trip as I’m sure you will. Blowing Kisses

    The Olympics would have been one song only so this is awesome.

    I agree that seeing Adam do 8 to 10 songs with Queen is priceless. And many, many people will see this event. But the idea of the Olympics – the platform would be enormous. Millions of people would be watching. So I still have my fingers crossed.

    Late to the party but squeeeeeeeeing mighty hard here!!

    There’s no way I can go, but, I know it will be online and on DVD for the rest of us!!

    So very happy!

    I’m sure this will get published when we get near Sonisphere. I’m posting it now for those that are traveling there. Peeps might want to connect with some of the people on this list. So here’s the twitter list for Sonisphere….

  6. HK fan says:

    tlkc, you make it sound so much fun…I’m so tempted…apart from I don’t know who any of the other performers are, although my DH was always into rock, so maybe he will be swayed. But the Rock Royalty package is about $12,000 (gulp)….but the chance to party with other Adams fans would be great.

  7. glambotgram says:

    I am sure this will be amazing, I am so happy for those of you who can go. We will see it through your eyes. Maybe we will be able to buy it also.

    I still think the Olympics would be better, Much bigger platform seen by millions billions. I am still hoping this is in the works. I am thinking in terms of exposure for Adam. Everyone knows of the Olympics, I never heard of this festival before the Adam/Queen rumors started.

    wyckedwhispers, tlkc, northern spirit:
    WOOT! I am so delighted and happy for you!
    Recaps mandatory! But you will likely be bursting with news and excitement and happy to share!

    When I first read this I looked up at my husband and asked if he wanted to go to England this summer. He thinks I am nuts. Big Smile

  11. HK fan says:

    We usually go to the UK at some point in the summer, no reason at all for it not to be in July instead of August. Really don’t think I can justify the rock package, but will definitely try and get at least saturday tickets. Knebworth is driving distance from where we usually stay.(I think)
    Especially as I don’t think the Japan trip will work out.

  12. milwlovesadam says:

    HK, hope you can make it. Recaps please if you do.

    So, set list speculation: Please please please include:

    Radio Gaga

    When I first read this I looked up at my husband and asked if he wanted to go to England this summer. He thinks I am nuts.

    glambotgram NO, you’re not! The Duke called me at work with the news and he proceeded to do research.As you all know he is a good Adam fan and really got hooked on the EMAS performance. I have booked a couple of hotels and am considering 2 days (altho I personally only want Queen and Adam.) I am trying to stay clear of the really expensive Royalty Rock pkg.and I don’t do CAMPING!(I don’t like General Admission either so this is all scary but I want to try to do it.) Would love to connect up with any of you from here who might be going. Will keep you posted. Will check on frequent flyer miles tomorrow. Too tired to do any more on this tonite. If you’re going, let’s try to get together!

    ETA: major bold and blockquote fail here. Sorry. Where’s Ron when I need him?

  15. cwm says:

    Getting up the gumption to talk to my husband this evening about what he thinks about going to Sonisphere… LOL I can’t believe it. No one in my circle would understand going overseas for a concert.

    But… we have been talking about plans to go to France and Italy this summer. I wonder if I could swing sticking in a quick side trip to London…

  16. turquoisewaters says:

    little dutchess: bold seems totally appropriate for your post.

    Re spontaneous trips to England:
    Just do it.

    I still can’t believe that I just scooped up my son and went to Paris for Adam’s concert there and bought meet and greets for us both…but I have never regretted it.

    If I liked Queen or had any interest in this concert, I would def find a way to go. You don’t need the whamodyne tickets or a fancy hotel.
    Move fast and find accomodations you can afford before they are gone.
    Find a cheap airline ticket and just go!

    I can’t imagine that you will ever look back and say, “Gosh, I wish I hadn’t gone to that concert.”

    Bon voyage, peeps! Get cracking on the travel plans! Airplane

    little dutchess: I don’t do CAMPING!(I don’t like General Admission either so this is all scary but I want to try to do it.)

    I’m with you on this. But, heck, I’m going to give this a try. If I have to stand off to the side to be safe, I’ll do it. We’ll never have another opportunity like this again : Queen + Adam and there in person!

  20. Northern Spirit says:

    Thanks, Kradamour, for that pep talk. You’re so right!

  21. glambotgram says:

    little duchess I love your post and the bold is perfect.

    We need to keep a running list of all those we know that are going, So far there is:

    wyckedwhispers, tlkc, northern spirit, Little duchess and the duke.

    ETA. Mieps to the list.

  22. mieps says:

    Pretty sure I’m going. Only the Saturday, and I’ll probably stay in a youth hostel, that’s more in my price range Wink Just realized that Wimbledon is in the same time period, so I’ll be hanging around the tennis grounds for a day as well. Can’t wait!

  23. Calgary says:

    All you who are going/thinking of going to the Sonisphere performance – this is a GREAT year to go – it’s the Queen’s Jubilee – 60 years on the throne – and there will be all sorts of special stuff happening. Also the London Olympics start July 27. Who needs an excuse!!!!!!! Wish I could go, but I have already booked 2 trips to France and that’s gonna break the bank.

    and then we hear from smeggs! She RT’d this….
    Adam Lambert, you’ve just announced fronting for Queen! Now what? “I’m going to Disneyland!”

    also on twitter is Kris Allen and that’s where he’s spending his night. Meeting up???

    Daniel @BauhausHallen

    @adamlambert As a lifelong Queen fan, I’m always sceptical about successors to the great Freddie. You are a worthy choice Adam, I approve!

    Ziam Ziam @Ziamp

    @BauhausHallen there are NO successors to Freddie. @adamlambert said it was an honor to pay homage to Freddie, not replace. #TheShowMustGoOn

    Daniel Daniel @BauhausHallen

    @Ziamp exaclty my point. No one replaces Freddie but Adam is damned sure a worthy successor.

    Wow! How exciting, it’s official! Adam singing with Queen, what a dream performance. I would love to be there, but I don’t see it happening. I love Queen and I LOOOVE Adam!
    All of you making plans to go, I’m so excited for you!

  29. cwm says:

    OMG this might just actually happen! I sat down next to my hubby, and mentioned our planned trip to Europe this summer with our kids and how just last week we were considering whether or not to include London in our itinerary (we decided then not to). I put the Sonisphere poster and press release in front of him, and he said “Well, if you want to go, go and I’ll go with you.” WOOT!!!! We have to figure out how to attach it to the trip we’ve already tentatively mapped out, so there’s lots of logistics to work out, but it just might happen! AAAAAHHHHH!!!!

  30. rainbowgal4 says:

    cwm So happy for you!!! It will be a once in a lifetime happening. Go for it!!

    Thanks; that made me laugh and eased the tension I’d been feeling trying to decide and working to make it happen tonite.
    Northern Spirit nice to know I’m not alone with that feeling of being surrounded by 150,000 people! That’s why I want to do only THE one important and THE best.Duke started out wanting all 3 so I’ve made progress. Hoping to see a few shows in London and maybe go to Scotland and or Ireland–never been and this will be a great vacay!

    KRADAMOUR- as always love your sensible approach to everything. Will show DH and show him we can do it like that!

    Another day is behind most of us – another day closer to Mapril and the album. Good Night All. Today was a fun ride.

  33. turquoisewaters says:

    cwm: Congrats! I am sure you can get the details resolved.

  34. turquoisewaters says:

    I’ll round out my evening by watching the EMAs one more time. Good night all. Today was great. Tomorrow we’ll be back complaining about how BTIKM does not get enough radio play. But for right now I’ll just enjoy this.
    Plus I am also proud how the Adam fans managed to stay (mostly) gracious at MJs on what must have been a perfectly miserable day for Adam-non-lovers. Wink

  35. HK fan says:

    I don’t know about it being a perfectly miserable day for non Adam fans over at MJ’s, they more than made up for it on the mediabase thread!!!!

  36. cher says:

    Hi everyone! Had a crazy day yesterday. No chance to enjoy my 30th!!! Grin Had to work. They did cut me a cake but it was very brief since we were busy, then had to go a good distance away for my dear friend’s mom’s funeral visitation. That was more of a priority than a bday dinner.
    Thank you all for your birthday wishes! I’ll try to celebrate sometime this week. I am owed many gift meals I think. Laugh What a great day for Adam to have announced this epic concert!!! Squeeee! I decided earlier not to go since I’m already going to Europe in May and don’t really like flying. However, several peeps are encouraging me to go, so I’ve actually bought a couple single day tickets for the Saturday of course. If I don’t end up going, then so be it. I hope a hotel nearby will rent Saturday night only rooms. I can’t afford that rock royalty ticket thing and don’t want to attend 2 nights. I shudder to think of myself in a crowd of over 100,000 people!! Cry I am seriously considering it though. July 7th is my son’s birthday, but he lives on the West Coast so no more obligation there. Kiss I did facetiously ask him if he wanted to go and emailed him a copy of the Sonisphere poster. No answer yet. He thinks I’m nuts even though he’s an Adam fan too. Cool
    Again thank you

    cwm, rs, Al, Ron, asif, ceddies, glambotgram, suz, krad, jlurks, little dutchess, turquoise waters, oksana, rainbowgal, dcglam, nekkid and luval

    for your sweet bday wishes! Hope I didn’t miss anyone! Love u all!
    BTW glambotgram, I do have a really large sweet tooth. That cake sounds awesome. Kiss Also Al, DH would never buy me a ticket to go see Adam. He’s jealous of him. Grin Grin Grin

  37. HK fan says:

    cher, where did you get the single day tickets from, I can only see full packages on ALFC, and I thought they didn’t go on sale till thursday?

    Happy Belated Birthday cher.

    SO happy for you HK fanYou are going to have an amazing time…

    Is anyone going from ONtario Canada, that might have checked out costs for the flight plus hotel…Just incase I can pull it off…

    So happy and proud of Adam…He has to be the bravest person I know…He definately has the ability but he will be facing alot of negativity from Queen fans…But he is no stranger to negativity…He faces it all the time…

    He must be pinching himself, to go from performing with them on Idol to fronting them at this huge concert at the same place that Freddie last performed…AMAZING

  42. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    So, so, so very happy and proud for Adam and this amazing news!!! I can’t even imagine how excited he and his family/friends/very significant other must be right now. It’s a dream come true for him, them, and most importantly, US! Grin

    I’m such a lucky girl – I get to enjoy dinner tonight with the one and only nkd! And the timing couldn’t be better … so much more fun to squee with a fellow squee-er rather than eye-rollers, lol. We’ll toast you all over our margarita(s)! Drink

  44. adamized says:

    Once again. So so much to catch up with! First of all, Happy belated birthday to Cher! I swear you don’t look at day over 28.

    So happy for those of you who are going and even thinking of going to England. Much of the fun is in the nervous anticipation and planning with all the other folks going. We are all going to get so much fun out of this whether we are going or not. I’m already going on a fairly expensive trip to Italy at the end of April so not in the cards for me. Not sure I would go anyway since really large crowds are not my thing.

    It would be so cool if Queen decided they needed to do more rehearsals and tacked on something in the US and Russia to get ready for the big show.

    Have a great day everyone. Nkd and TexasWannaHoldEm enjoy your dinner and drinks.

    I an going to be on a cruise to Norway and Iceland that ends up in England on July 2nd, and I am seriously thinking of staying on till the festival, but I am not sure what I would do alone in England for those 5 days. I was in London for a week for Adam’s concert last year. I don’t like the thought of the crowds either, so I am really vascillating.

    For whoever wants to catch a show, I can’t give a high enough recommendation for “War Horse”. I saw it in New York in the fall and will see it again in London before the cruise. I haven’t seen the movie, but this is pure theater that can’t be recaptured on the screen, and some of the best I have ever seen, if not THE best.
