Diary of an Ardent Fan

On Friday night of July 21, I saw what is definitely one of my favorite concerst ever.

Queen + Adam Lambert

Wow, I have seen many concerts, but this one was on so many other levels.

For the first time ever, I bowed to a band at a concert.

They are just phenomenal!

Adam Lambert sings the Queen songs very well.

Dr. Brian May is still a phenomenal guitarist.

Roger Taylor can still beat the drums so well.

The rest of their band is quite solid also.

I was soooo close to these guys.

I felt like I needed to cry because it was so special. My cousin Zachary did cry.

They played several hits, but also deep album cuts.

I don’t think anyone left the arena unhappy.

If they did, then they were at the wrong show.

I can honestly say that aside from The Stones, this show may never be topped for me.

I have more shows to see, and can’t wait for all of them, but if none top this one, then I’m okay with that.

But I’m not done yet.

Stay tuned.

Love and Peace
