Brian May and Roger Taylor are not Queen..they are 1/2 of Queen!Adam Lame-bert is just another cash cow for the money/fame hungry May/Taylor duo.As a person that has all of the Queen albums(except the umpteenth crappy greatest hit collections),and most of the solo works...I'm asking that you stop this tribute/karaoke band nonsense and,at least go back to the honest freshness of the May/Taylor/Rodgers era.
And calling yourself Queen has got to stop.Without John Deacon,you aren't.Without Freddie,you aren't.It's like seeing Kiss without their make-up ,Pink Floyd without either David Glimore or Roger Waters.
Or here's an idea.Why don't you have two performing Queens,one touring with May,one with Taylor..and maybe even a third with Lambert.That way you can cover Los Vegas,Broadway and London all at the same time
