I wish I could watch it again for the first time!!! Adam Lambert is cheeky enough to fill Freddie's tennis shoes and has the voice to back it up. 15,000 fans singing Boho Rhap felt somehow intimate and raucously celebratory at the same time. Brian May's solo was inspiring and Roger Taylor's "dueling banjos" with his son showed the apple didn't fall far from the tree. The light show was icing on the cake as it should be.
This concert was perfection. Brian May and Roger Taylor were absolutely amazing with Adam blending in perfectly. The music had a hard rock feel with fantastic use of lasers and strobe lights. Brian May and Roger Taylor were highlighted with solos and duets paying tribute to their own incredible talents as well as Freddie. The music selection was spectacular swaying the audience from screaming along and fist pumping to tears and heart break. I would definitely go again and take everyone I know with me. I wish it never ended.
was pleasantly surprised what a great job Adam Lambert did singing Queens songs
Very well done! Excellent vocals from Adam Lambert, of course. Great show visually. Music is now classics. Sound was too loud, but that seems to be current trend.
I loved everything about the show and it ranks as one of the best rock shows I have ever seen. Queen was fabulous and I cannot say enough about Adam Lambert. He sang every song with power and grace. he was the ultimate showman!
I enjoyed all of the show, there was nothing I didn't like.
Adam Lambert's voice and charisma were a perfect front for Queen. Brian May was amazing and the tribute they gave to Freddy Mercury sent shivers down my spine. A wonderful concert.
The original Queen members looked & played like "back in the day"...awesome! And Adam Lambert absolutely nailed every song. He's the perfect stand in for Freddie.
Amazing! Adam Lambert killed it! Fell in love with Queen all over again! Light show to die for.
Although they didn't play my favorite song, the concert as a whole was fantastic. Adam has an incredible voice and the tribute to Freddie was a nice touch.
The concert was amazing!! The lights, pyro's and stage were first rate!! Adam Lambert is an amazing singer and Freddy would be pleased to have been represented by him! Queen was unforgettable!! I can't believe I actually say and listened to Brian May and Roger Taylor, Queen is my all time favourite band.....I'm absolutely thrilled and thankful that you brought them to Winnipeg!! Thank you!! Freddy will love on forever!!
QUEEN has been my favorite band ever since I was 8 or 9 (I'm 41 now), so even though it broke my heart to know that May and Taylor were cheapen it with that Lambert guy in this tour, I couldn't fail to show up and hope for the best while expecting the worst. Well, the worst did happen a couple of times when Lambert totally destroyed beautiful songs like The Show Must Go On and fun ones like Another One Bites The Dust (Lambert simply has no feeling in his voice, he has technique and potency, but he cannot carry a melody and character in these songs like so many other singers can), but I was also greeted by the BEST: The extraordinary interpretations of Brian May ('39 - with a small crash course in physics, and Love Of My Life with some verses interpreted by Mercury in that huge Q shaped screen - tear jerking moment #1), and Roger Taylor (These Are The Days Of Our Lives - tear jerking moment #2). Guitar and drum solo (by father and son!) also were great! So, focusing in the positive, on about half of the songs Lambert blessed us by not trying to show off with his R&B yelling, so you could almost forget he was singing them (especially if you were like me, singing along so loud as to mute him), and just being there, in the same building with 2 of the real Fabulous Four (sorry, Beatles), the night was unforgettable. If they come back with anyone, even Justin Bieber or Lil Wayne on vocals, I will surely be there because now it has been proven that QUEEN is the greatest Band In The History Of The World since not even Lambert was able to destroy this concert.
Not Freddy but the closet we'll get today. Lambert worked the stage like a true diva and hit the notes needed to be convincing. Brian May still can make the Red Special sing and the drum off between Roger Taylor and son Rufus a magic moment. Seeing Briqn and Roger still rocking together worth the price of admission alone. Love the stage layout and light show. Two solid hours is not enough but covered a variety of material. A mix of joy and sadness.
Totally enjoyed the show! It was neat to see the admiration and support for Adam Lambert on Roger Taylor's and Brian May's faces. It was great entertainment and they gelled well together. We are lucky that we can continue to enjoy such an iconic group of musicians and to show the band our appreciation. I loved how they paid tribute throught out the show to our beloved Freddie Mercury!
There are just not enough words to describe how great this concert experience was. I didn't want it to end. It was an amazing weekend for entertainment in Winnipeg - John Legend, Red River Ex., Jazz Festival, Aboriginal Days, Billy Ray Cyrus, to name a few. I feel sorry for the people who weren't able to see Queen.
If anyone ever could stand in for Freddie Mercury, it's Adam Lambert - Excellent show, Non-Stop feast for the eyes & ears!!! Loved it!!!
The concert was amazing. Queen is a long standing band that I have listened to since a child and Adam Lambert fit in perfectly. Would like to have heard some of his own songs. But otherwise it was a great concert.
What a phenomenal show! The talent shown by all of the musicians was incredible. I have loved Adam Lambert since seeing him on American Idol - his voice and the notes he can hit are truly a gift! I also loved how the band remembered Freddie with us. Outstanding entertainment indeed!
First of all, being in the company of such talent musicians was something I will never forget. Brian Mayes and Roger Taylor have talent up the wazooo all by themselves!! The drum battle with Roger Taylor and his son was mind-blowing and the intimate time with just Brian Mayes and his guitar made me hold my breath in awe. Seriously folks…these guys haven't aged a day in 25 years. They can sing and entertain like they did "way back when". Personally, I would have paid $140 to see Adam Lambert by himself!! He is simply "perfection" on stage (not to mention he's drop-dead gorgeous). He didn't try to be Freddy Mercury…he was just himself, singing ALL the hit songs of Queen. One thing I discovered about Adam is his strongest instrument is just his voice (and that's enough for me!!). He doesn't play a music instrument which set him apart from what Freddie Mercury would have done, so at times, he looked a little awkward when there were longer instrumental parts to any given song. The concert was indescribable….there aren't enough words to describe the feeling that it gave me to be in the MTS Centre on Saturday night. It'll be a concert I'll remember forever.
This show was fabulous...Was amazed & impressed by Adam Lambert..didn't really know a lot about him...but wow great pipes and enough sass to be charming...and Queen, well they are Queen enough said..except...Brian May - Swoon - the same swoon that has been happening for over 30 years.....
