Dang, we could have seen a lot of chest if Adam would have turned around a bit more.
Wish I could see his feet. Does he have heels on? He’s so tall!
Yes – think Brian is a bit taller, actually. Looks huge there – curious about the boots.
On that IG, poster says something about enunciating the vibrato too much – thought they were two different things. Any opinions?
I agree sometimes he uses his vibrato too much. He has gotten so much better with it though. I get why people say that when talking about the difference between him and Freddie singing Queen’s music. Another big difference for me is Freddie has a grit to his voice and Adam’s voice is so clean. The Show Must Go On at the EMA’s to me was way overuse of vibrato. I started reading about it and most things I have read said the more trained the singer the stronger the vibrato. Makes sense, Freddie wasn’t trained and Adam was. Doesn’t make either way right or wrong but sometimes, like when Adam said he wanted that power like Freddie, less use of vibrato would help. WWTLF at IHeart was the most powerful I have ever heard him sing. It was so much better than Hammersmith (which I didn’t think possible) it was unbelievable to me. Anyone else that can actually sing, jump in.
Honestly, I think Adam could walk on stage and they could dub Freddie’s vocals in and at the end of the show those same Queen fans would say, see he can’t sing as well as Freddie. They grab onto the only difference they can find and hang on for dear life. Freddie will always be my favorite singer but Adam sure gives him a run for it.
ulti, that is a common refrain in YouTube comments by diehards, claiming Adam has too much vibrato. As if Freddie or other rock singers have none. I read that Freddie did not have much natural vibrato, but was able to simulate it when he wanted. I have noticed it on some of his recordings, but they apparently NEVER notice lol. Here you can hear it, but it sounds forced. http://youtu.be/55QqO5rtbC0
Remember the EMAs, we thought Adam had more than usual, but in some fan videos it was barely noticeable. I do think when he is tired, stressed, not enough rest, it is more noticeable. But that is rare.
And seems some recording equipment affects the sound. At iHeart, to me the radio feed has more, but the fan videos sound completely normal.
Still confused about the word “enunciate” – always thought that just meant speaking clearly and that “vibrato” is an entirely different thing (?).
Wasn’t it Carnie Wilson who said she’d kill for Adam’s vibrato?
At the beginning at the EMA’s, thought he sounded a little bit tentative, actually – slightly nervous?
But from what I’ve gathered all the greatest singers have vibrato to one extent or another.
Was not really happy about the radio feed at iHeart – the best audio was the fan one (far away from the stage) with the red shirt guy – the one I always play.
My guess is he/she really meant distinct or pronounced.
My guess, too, aely – would have been a much better choice of either of those.

Such an interesting statement –
from a poster at 24/7
It explains the many trucks very well.
My brother is one of the roadies and also will be the backup driver in one of the trucks. He told me that there are 3 sets of everything (stages, props, clothing, instruments, sound and lighting equipment, etc) so there will never be a glitch. The venues are set up in advance so this will be the only time you will see all 16 trucks together until the tour is over. While venue #1 is being set up by trucks 1-5, trucks 6-10 are at venue #2 setting up and trucks 11-15 are at venue #3 ready to set up. After the concert at venue #1 is over, trucks 1-5 are reloaded and head to venue #4 while venue #3 is setting up. He said it’s like a game of leapfrog and is extremely efficient, but at the same time it’s hard work. He is excited to be working this tour with Queen and AL. Oh and he said the pay is r e a l l y good for this tour. He didn’t say and I forgot to ask about truck 16. I’ll call him and find out and let you know what he says. I don’t even want to hazzard a guess.
Remember when Adam was on the AI tour, and he sang the Bowie songs, he put that funny sounding vibrato in one of the songs, was it Lets Dance? Did I read somewhere once that Adam could add accents to some songs? I always thought that at the EMA’s he did that vibrato on purpose, not trying to copy Freddie, but the same way he did when he sang Bowie. Ha, everytime I have an Adam discussion with my music Professor son, his biggest grip about Adam is that he doesnt have any grit in his voice like Freddie did. Ah well, he’s gone, Adam is here, and he is what Queen wants now!
Thats so interesting HK Fan. I wonder how they can leap frog, 3 venues ahead, because I assume that there are previous shows going on before Adam and Queen gets there, I know, Neil, is organizing it all.
As far as truck 16 I know thats Neil’s truck, right!
Maybe truck 16 is Adam’s wardrobe.
So do they load a set of these trucks on cargo ships for the overseas shows, or have a whole different setup?
Truck 16 is for Adam’s:
clothes
boots
juicer
kale
rings
necklaces
hair product
throat coat tea
So if the iheart show is going to be broadcast on Clear channel classic rock tv stations, any idea what channels these are?
glambotgram. I have Time Warner Cable and can’t find Clear Channel Classic rock tv. Only MC(music channel I think) classic rock. For now until we get more information on Sunday or Monday I’m sticking with what jlurk posted a few pages back. Bottom right on the photo.

Not sure where the TV thing is coming from but it is on Yahoo
https://screen.yahoo.com/iheartradio-live-queen-adam-lambert-120000567.html?soc_src=default
Same place as the Arctic Monkeys last night and it can be seen world wide.
From Brianmay.com
Maybe they have it wrong and it is clear channel radio stations
Ah! I kept seeing that on twitter also but not a source. Now I know. None of the other concerts have been on anything other than I Heart or Yahoo. I always kind of skip over BrianMay.com on Twitter since they just recycle any news they find or copy from Brian’s blog or Queen Official. I’ll keep a watch out but the guy that does the streaming for Yahoo sent the link out and said he was really excited about the concert.
Here is what I found, so CC has no TV stations (this is all I can find):
” In 2007, the company entered into an agreement to sell all its television stations to Providence Equity Partners for $1.2 billion,[22] a deal that eventually closed in March 2008.[9] All former Clear Channel television stations were owned by Newport Television, while the other six were flipped to other buyers by Newport. In 2012, Newport announced its intentions to sell off as many of the former Clear Channel stations as is legally allowed to Nexstar Broadcasting Group, Cox Media Group and Sinclair Broadcast Group.”

Can’t help … But … I’ve seen these 2 ads in a row. TCB for Verizon and WLL for Dior Homme.
I haven’t listened to these songs .. seems .. for ages … so went back to look for and found a good, fun and fab one. The Ray-Gay and dread heads from Atlanta.

Twitter lists –
Just got caught up on yesterday’s posts. Busy getting ready for trial at work. Thanks, AL, for my toast! Can’t believe I made it to 1,000 – I remember asking where I was in the count a few months ago and I wasn’t close.
Like your sign off idea better, sistasif so …

Beautiful edit –
I’m presuming Adam has never met John Deacon – ??
Hi everyone. Started the list for the preshow dinner for MSG on the Queenbert planning thread. I have put some names on it already. Please let me know if I have missed anyone. Thanks.

Cher…I have someone coming with me for the msg dinner. Have put a post on the planning thread with his name if you could add. Thanks

AHA! I told you: Adam is obsessed with Penny Dreadful!
http://adamlamberttv.blogspot.ca/2014/06/adam-lambert-is-obsessed-with-showtimes.html
I knew he would be! Here is the link I put up a couple of weeks ago:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFXHfEqMcis&feature=kp
The show’s creator is John Logan, who wrote and won the Tony for RED (about Painter Mark Rothko) – a fantastic play.
I bet Adam would have given (or capped) his eye teeth to be in Penny Dreadful.
Information about people connected with the tour. https://docs.google.com/document/d/14fzWHYj3N_QXZy63OKkkZxaYd4ZgOG37fTzMCL-posg/edit?usp=sharing
Thanks for that contact list, luval – fun to explore.
The actor at :28 (Josh Hartnett) has features similar to Adam’s.
(Glad he’s relaxing.)
We’ve been watching Penny Dreadful too. A couple of episodes back, Eva Green did a seance performance that was jaw-dropping! She to me is the soul of the show. It can get confusing, with all that’s going on, but we’re suckers for the dark and deadly. (Hubby likes True Blood, Boardwalk Empire and Longmire too, but I pass on those.) Adam got me to watch Coven, though. And Glee. LOL.

LOKI!!!!
After watching that Tabernacle performance, checked up on Longineu – left Yellowcard, as I think we all knew, and is now living in West Hollywood and engaged.
The Hangout’s at 4:00 EDT tomorrow? Know there’a clock somewhere –
I know that all everyone is talking about now is the upcoming tour, but…….. Funny Girl was just on TV and I watched it. It might be the first time that I saw the whole movie through and it was fabulous! Barbra Streisand really is in a class by herself. I love Glee and watched it all season, but Lea/Rachel could never come near to what she did with that role. Was there ever speculation that Adam would have the Nick Arenstein part? No! The part isn’t musically demanding enough, But I have said for years that I would love to see Adam and Barbra duet together. It would be awesome, in the true sense of the word.
