QUEEN's Tour With ADAM LAMBERT

................On QUEEN's decision to tour, with "American Idol" finalist Adam Lambert once again fronting the band:
Joe: "Well, I actually think that, in fairness, it's probably a more realistic lineup than the one with Paul Rodgers, because QUEEN was very flamboyant when they had Freddie Mercury — very, very flamboyant — and Adam Lambert is very, very flamboyant. Paul Rodgers was… not that he wasn't flamboyant, but he's a lot more testosterone driven than either Fred or Adam Lambert are. So, having not seen it — this is just pure guesswork and speculation on my part — I would imagine that it probably sounds closer to what QUEEN with Fred sounded, because of the way that Adam Lambert sings. It's gonna split opinions — I know it is — because some people think that they QUEEN shouldn't have this guy there, and there's other people that are gonna think it's great." ...Source
