I had the misfortune to hear Lambert on a Radio 2 interview a while back when he said he treat performing live like being on the stage in a theatre. The two are nothing alike. One runs to a tight script and the other can be a musical masterpiece like Phantom, Evita etc.
Yeah, the two are distinctively different on many levels. I like the guy, and to be fair he is always very respectful about the legacy of the band. But what appealed to me about Queen live was the raw rock 'n' roll energy and substance. I know dear Freddie could camp it up to the max, but he could also rock out with the best of them - and be very natural in both roles. And I miss that real, unpredictable and genuine rock element with Queen+ these days.
musicalprostitute, by now I know your views about QAL and about Adam and I respect them. We all have different taste as to what we enjoy and feel is good enough or not to spare the time and money in order to go to a gig but I have to say it would have been very interesting to hear your thoughts after attending a QAL concert. Could a performance at Wembley stadium and billed as maybe the farewell tour tempt you? Probably not which is really too bad
