Adam Lambert is no Freddie Mercury...
Chicago - The Band is Chicago - The Band, and its enthusiasm and love of Queen's music was palpable and electrifying. What better endorsement than from the remaining band members themselves, who knew and loved Freddie so well. Freddie was Freddie and he was amazing. After all, Brian May stated that this tour never would have happened without him. I can think of no better front man to bring Queen's music to the live stage - and Queen's music is too iconic to go unperformed. Attempts to replicate him will always fall short of expectations. Chicago - The Band performed the night's repertoire with unrivaled heart, soul, and immutable skill, which is the way it should be.
