Does anyone know exactly what Brian says before Love Kills? I heard the "one of the best rock and roll singers in the world," but what does he say before that? I thought I heard "seriously."
squaresquare' date='Jun 27th 2014, 5:25 PM

I think it might be, “Ladies & gentlemen, may I introduce honestly (?) serieously one of the best Rock ‘n Roll singers in the world, Mr. Adam Lambert!”

Ha ha, Brian took Adam's mic. And the crowd's cheering was so loud. Really cool!

Part 2... After I bought Calgary Sun and locked it in my treasure Adam box I am all set to continue with more impressions of the audience. There was a noticeable difference in the crowd. Edmonton audience was dominated by working class people in their 40s and 50s while Calgary audience was more diverse both socially and age wise. Many 20 and 30-year old people. Calgary was more restrained than Edmonton before the concert. But with the first accords of Now I Am Here, the crowd cheers were deafening and steadily increased throughout the night to reach sky high levels during BR and the Encore! You noticed that Canadians are careful, especially in upper sections, to not obstruct others line of sight. But let me tell you there was a lot of chair dancing around me and head bopping during Stone Cold Crazy!! And the floobert happened first time last night, ahhhh!!! The first time I and vast majority of the audience jumped on their feet was AOBTD! It was that moment when I realized people are welcoming Adam with open arms! Then FBG caused roar, sing along, and a lot of dancing! This is when many people in my section jumped when recognized the opening accords and did not sit until the last Brian’s note. So much fun live!!!! Then a small break with one of my favs since Chicago “Now I am here” so I sat and sang along. It was so magnificent from my seat! I could sense many people gasped when Adam appeared in all his golden fringe glory under the giant screen! KQ was a killer as always and very, very entertaining. And the champagne fountain is so freaking hilarious live! I already mentioned STL caused a massive jaw drop and lead to a huge response!!! Less people knew “I Want It All”, but I love it. I really, really loved it back in 2012. It is so grandiose live!
2/3 of the arena were on their feet for Dr. May welcoming him with long ovations! Same for Roger! Big cheers for each band member, too. It was a beautiful thing.... Love of My Life was so emotional. I cried during Freddie’s cameo and I am all teary now. I noticed my friend got very emotional, too. This has been his fav song together with STL and TSMGO since his childhood. The mid section was just wonderful. I enjoyed it much more than in Edmonton. Maybe it helped also that Brian, Roger and Rufus wore their cowboy hats and it felt a very special moment for everybody in the venue. The guys seemed really touched and appreciative of all the love they were getting! But I hope I never see Adam in one of those ugly hats, Lol! Then everything exploded! Underpressure was marvelous. Both I and my friend do not like too much the original version. He preferred much more Adam+Roger! YAY! I noticed the sound guys also increased the decibels so it was LOUD, especially closer to the giant speakers where I was!!!!! Stunning Love Kills and beyond belief WWTLF. Both very emotional to me; wiped some tears secretly. Huge cheers for Adam. Oh I forgot. When Dr. May told everybody that Adam is the best rock singer I jumped madly and screamed so piercing that I was afraid I caused some ear damage to the people in front of me. (Yes, that’s quite possible. I used to sing soprano and I still have some lungs although I have not sung for years). I believe with all my heart that Adam got the biggest crowd love tonight. But I also believe this love will only grow and grow until it reaches Dr. May’s cosmos! Next highlight for me and everybody else was TYMD. I do not particularly like the original song, but it is so much FUN live. So heavy! And everybody joined. Adam was soooooo happy that we got a new call-response. You could totally see the joy in his eyes on the big screens. The tits moment was so amusing!!! Only ADAM! DSMN and CLTCL were crazy good and gradually lead to the PANDEMONIUM that happened during and after BR and the encore. BR had absolutely everybody on their feet in the upper level and I believe in the first level too. I have seen some big rock acts in that arena. Nothing, absolutely nothing, compares to Queenbert and the love they got in Saddledome!!
Today I feel strangely satisfied. After Edmonton I seriously considered going to a third show, perhaps the closing night in Toronto. But since Calgary added to my QAL experience so much, I feel somehow contented and totally happy with the two shows. Maybe I am a bit afraid my perfect Calgary night may be ruined if I happen to sit with other type of crowd. I don’t know. The only thing I know for sure is that Adam has managed to do the magic again. My 40ish old blood is boiling again. And now I can return back to my boring academic routines, which I have completely abandoned since Chicago.
EPILOGUE: I asked my friend after the show “Do you get it now?” His reply was “Yes, I finally get it.” He is so great! A new born Adam fan!

WOW! Loved your recap!!!! Hope there's a part two!!! huggy.gif

And it's funny you mention the Edmonton show and the tiredness in Adam's voice. I thought I was nuts. But there were a lot of 'moments' where I saw/heard him protect his voice. I guess the back-to-back shows are NOT a great idea with the vocal gymnastics involved in the shows!

Please give us more impression/info!

MUAHHHHH!!!!!
Happy to see all of you again! :hug:

MY GOD HE IS SO IRRESISTIBLY GORGEOUS & HOT!!! He takes my breath away and elicits such thoughts ...!!!! Phew ....! :devil: :icecream:

I also think Brian has found a connection with Adam that perhaps borders a little on what he once had with Freddie, and it is filling a void that has probably been there since 1991. He is a dear, sweet man and I am beyond delighted at the bond and love they share. Great human beings deserve great things. They set such a wonderful example and send the best message out into the world. :wub: :wub: That gif of Adam looking at Brian and then they high five and walk off with their arms around each other. So precious!!! But - the way Adam looks at Brian in the beginning - powerfully expressive and SOOOO beautiful.
