Went to see Brian May for the first time but was very pleasantly surprised with Adam Lambert's voice. Incredible, strong voice and nailed the songs of a very difficult catalogue. He even said he was just a fan of the band and was only trying to have fun, not replace Freddy. Brian was awesome!

I was there too. May's solo while he was floating through space was awesome. Lambert sounded great too. Another One Bites the Dust was a highlight for him.

Adam Lambert is one of the most talented voices to come out of American Idol. He and Jennifer Hudson can just flat out sang.

Glad to see some others be open-minded. Saw them in Nashville last year (bucket list). Lambert has an unbelievable voice and doesn't remotely try to be Freddie- just a great fit in terms of campiness and vocals. Lights/show are typical Queen perfection.

Floor right, row 3, staring at the Red Special the entire time. Greatest show I’ve ever seen, best day of my life.

EPCOT should be just this. Way cheaper, and way more educational.

I was there. Loved it. Sure, it's not Freddie, but although we may want to live forever, we can't.

Queen pun intended.

For anyone who truly knows how great Brian is, he was worth the price of admission alone. It was a gigantic thrill to finally get to see him play. Really wish I could have caught one of the earlier shows on the tour - if I'd only known how much fun it was gonna be.
