В списке стран — Великобритания, Франция, Германия, Нидерланды, Австрия, Бельгия, Италия, Дания, Чехия и Швейцария. Европейская часть тура начнется 13 января в Ньюкасле, а завершится (по предварительным данным) 19 февраля в Цюрихе. Впрочем, как и в случае с летними концертами, ожидается, что возможно добавление новых дат и мест выступлений.
В настоящее время музыканты заняты собственными проектами: Адама Ламберт спешно дописывает третий сольный альбом, выход которого был назначен на 2014 год, а Брайан Мэй и Роджер Тейлор готовятся к релизу “Queen Forever” 10 ноября.

Adam Lambert, Queen to bring joint tour to the UK next year
Posted On 29 Sep 2014 14:38
By : Josh Haigh
Adam Lambert and Queen have announced plans to bring their joint tour to the UK next year.
The seven-date tour will take place in January and include dates in Newcastle, Glasgow, London, Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham and Nottingham.
Queen and Adam Lambert previously played three dates at London’s Hammersmith Apollo in 2012, but according to Lambert their stage show is now “more of a production” since they’ve taken it across North America, Australia and New Zealand and continental Europe.
“We’ve had a lot more cities to visit and so I think we all decided to build up the visuals and the stage accordingly, and of course we do all the hits,” said the American Idol singer in a press release.
“We have a very interesting set design. It’s big and daring. We’re going to do it to the max,” added Queen’s guitarist Brian May.
Tickets for the UK shows go on sale this Friday (October 3) at 9am. Check out the full list of dates below:
January 13 – Newcastle, Arena
January 14 – Glasgow, Hydro
January 17 – London, O2 Arena
January 20 – Leeds, Arena
January 21 – Manchester Arena
January 23 – Birmingham, NIA
January 24 – Nottingham Arena
Meanwhile, Lambert has recently revealed that he has signed to a new label for his forthcoming third album – find out more here.

QUEEN + ADAM LAMBERT annunciano un lungo tour europeo nel 2015 che li porterà anche in Italia per una data unica: martedì 10 febbraio al Mediolanum Forum di Assago (MI), biglietti disponibili dalle ore 11 di mercoledì 1 ottobre sul circuito Ticketone (www.ticketone.it) e nelle relative prevendite.
I Queen + Adam Lambert si preparano ad un tour europeo di sei settimane a partire da Gennaio, per quello che si preannuncia come uno degli appuntamenti più attesi del prossimo anno.
Dopo aver intrapreso un tour mondiale sold out che li ha portati in Nord America, Australia e Nuova Zelanda con tappe in festival all’aperto in Corea e Giappone, i Queen + Adam Lambert non si risparmiano per proporre in tutto il mondo il sodalizio tanto acclamato dalla critica.
Due anni dopo le date europee di May, Taylor e Lambert, questo tour più articolato vedrà i Queen + Adam Lambert impegnati in una serie di 21 show in 10 paesi. Il tour si aprirà alla Newcastle Arena il 13 gennaio, per poi continuare per sette appuntamenti in Gran Bretagna, inclusa una data alla O2 Arena di Londra. Il tour proseguirà poi in Francia, Germania, Paesi Bassi, Austria, Belgio, Italia, Danimarca e Repubblica Ceca e si concluderà all’Hallenstadion di Zurigo il 19 febbraio.
L’apertura delle prevendite dei biglietti per la data italiana (martedì 10 febbraio al Mediolanum Forum di Assago) è prevista per le ore 11 di mercoledì 1 ottobre. I biglietti saranno disponibili sul circuito Ticketone (www.ticketone.it) e relative prevendite.
Si prevede che l’annuncio del nuovo tour scatenerà una corsa all’acquisto dei biglietti da parte dei fan, come già successo per le 24 date del tour USA, andate sold out in tempo record. I Queen e Adam Lambert non hanno deluso le aspettative di fan e critica, e hanno ottenuto review lusinghiere come:
I Queen e Adam Lambert si sono incontrati per la prima e volta nel 2009, quando si sono esibiti insieme nell’inno rock della band “We Are The Champions” durante la finale dell’ottava stagione di “American Idol”. Lambert e I Queen si sono ritrovati sullo stesso palco agli MTV European Music Awards del 2011 a Belfast. Nell’estate del 2012 la band e il giovane rocker hanno tenuto una prima serie di concerti insieme, di cui tre sold out all’Hammersmith Apollo di Londra, oltre alla partecipazioni a vari concerti in Russia, Ucraina e Polonia.
Un’ulteriore performance all’iHeartRadio Music Festival di Las Vegas lo scorso settembre ha fatto nascere l’idea di Adam, Roger e Brian di portare in tour lo show. La rivista “Hollywood Reporter” in quest’occasione ha scritto: “Adam Lambert e i Queen hanno lasciato l’iHeart senza fiato. Col suo perfetto mix di attitudine rock, stile, teatralità, sex appeal e doti vocali, [Lambert] ha portato la musica della band ad un altro livello.”
Ora la combinazione vincente di Queen + Adam Lambert prosegue il suo percorso con quello che sarà sicuramente un tour trionfale. Lambert inoltre tiene molto ad avvisare il pubblico che ci saranno grosse novità nello show.
“Da un punto di vista tecnico, a differenza di due anni fa si tratta di una produzione più completa,” dice il cantante. “Dovremo visitare molte altre città e questo ci ha portati a decidere insieme di progettare dei visual e un palco particolare”. “Il nostro set ha un design molto particolare,” dice Brian May. “È grande e molto audace. Spingeremo tutto al massimo”, continua il chitarrista. “Ogni volta che abbiamo suonato la nostra musica con Adam, lui si è dimostrato un frontman incredibile,” sostiene Roger Taylor. “È sensazionale. Ha un’estensione sorprendente, e riesce ad eguagliare quella di Freddie. È un cantante strardinario e un vero talento. Sento che si adatta perfettamente alla nostra teatralità, è proprio a suo agio”.
Per quanto riguarda il futuro, sembra che la partnership Queen + Adam Lambert sia destinata, almeno per il momento, a limitarsi alle loro collaborazioni live. Lambert è attualmente impegnato nella lavorazione del suo terzo album. May e Taylor si stanno preparando all’uscita di “Queen Forever”, una nuova raccolta che include materiale finora inedito registrato con Freddie Mercury, che uscirà il prossimo 10 novembre.
Durante la loro lunga carriera, i Queen hanno accumulato uno sbalorditivo elenco di premi e introduzioni in varie Hall Of Fame, e in questo non sono secondi a nessuno. Vendite record nell’ordine di centinaia di milioni, oltre a una lista di album e singoli in vetta alle classifiche, continuano a far posizionare i Queen nella top ten delle vendite iTunes di tutti I tempi. All’inizio del 2014 la band è stata riconosciuta come la prima in assoluto a vendere oltre 6 milioni di copie di un album in UK col loro “Greatest Hits”, battendo “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” dei Beatles di quasi un milione di copie: si calcola che in Gran Bretagna una famiglia su tre possieda una copia di questa compilation.
Le grandiose performance di Adam Lambert durante l’ottava stagione di “American Idol” sono annoverate tra i momenti migliori nella storia dello show. Il suo album di debutto “For Your Entertainment” gli è valso una nomination ai Grammy Awards nella categoria “Best Male Pop Vocal Performance”. Il suo secondo album, “Trespassing”, ha esordito al numero 1 delle classifiche Billboard. Il tour che ne è seguito ha portato Lambert dall’Australia al Sudafrica, attraverso Asia ed Est Europa ed è culminato nel sold out di Helsinki. Nel 2013, Lambert è apparso come guest star nella fortunata serie tv “Glee”. Sta attualmente completando il suo terzo album.

Usher, Queen and Adam Lambert announce shows at the Metro Radio Arena
Sep 29, 2014 10:00
By Gordon Barr
American Idol's Adam Lambert will team up with Queen while Usher is also heading out on the road again
Adam Lambert, right, performs alongside Brian May of Queen
Two major gigs have been announced for the Metro Radio Arena.
Queen and Adam Lambert are joining forces for a UK tour, while Usher is also hitting the road again.
Usher was first off the mark to announce his show for March 18 next year, with tickets on general sale from Friday.
Meanwhile Queen and Adam Lambert will be at the venue on January 13, 2015, with tickets also on general sale from Friday.
“We are delighted to welcome Queen back following a six year absence and with an incredible new front man in American Idol’s Adam Lambert this is royally going to kick off 2015 in style,” said Arena general manager Paul Tappenden.
Having only earlier this month wound down a sold out world tour taking in North America, Australia, New Zealand, and outdoor festival stops in Korea and Japan, Queen and Adam Lambert are sparing no time in taking their critically-hailed partnership back on the road.
Coming two years after May, Taylor and Lambert last performed a short tour together of the UK and Europe, this lengthier outing will see them perform 21 shows in 10 countries.
The band’s tour opens at the Metro Radio Arena and reaction to the dates is expected to equal that seen at the announcement of their US shows where an on-sale rush for tickets saw the band sell out 24 dates in record time. Queen and Lambert matched the expectations, winning glowing reviews from fans and critics alike:
Queen first teamed up with Adam Lambert in 2009 to perform the band’s rock anthem We Are the Champions on American Idol’s season eight finale. They partnered again in 2011 at the MTV European Music Awards in Belfast. In the summer of 2012 they performed their first live concerts together with three sold-out shows in the UK at London’s Hammersmith Apollo as well as concert appearances in Russia, Ukraine and Poland.
“On the technical side, it’s definitely more of a production than two years ago,” says Lambert. “We’ve had a lot more cities to visit and so I think we all decided to build up the visuals and the stage accordingly, and of course we do all the hits.”
Brian May adds: “We have a very interesting set design. It’s big and daring. We’re going to do it to the max.”
Roger Taylor continues: “Each time we’ve worked with Adam with our music, he’s just the most incredible front man. He’s sensational. He has this amazing range, Freddie had a great range. Adam can really cover it. He’s an extraordinary singer and a real talent. I feel he fits into our sort of theatricality. It is very comfortable.”
It would seem the Queen and Adam Lambert partnership is likely, for now, to remain limited to their live collaborations. Lambert is currently in the final stages of writing and recording his third album. May and Taylor are getting ready their forthcoming album, Queen Forever, a new compilation set which includes previously unreleased material recorded with Freddie Mercury, released November 10.

Adam Lambert et Queen se sont à nouveau retrouvés en 2011 aux MTV European Music Awards à Belfast avant de donner leurs premiers concerts en 2012 avec trois shows sold-out à Londres, puis des concerts en Russie, en Ukraine et en Pologne.
C’est après une performance exceptionnelle au IHeartRadio Music Festival à Las Vegas que Roger Taylor, Brian May et Adam Lambert ont décidé d’emmener le show en tournée. QUEEN & ADAM LAMBERT proposeront tous les hits du groupe avec pour fond visuel une exceptionnelle production scénique.
Brian May et Roger Taylor ne tarissent pas d’éloges pour Adam Lambert : "Adam s’est révélé un incroyable showman en interprétant notre musique" Roger Taylor dit aussi "Il est sensationnel et possède une étonnante tessiture. Freddy possédait un très grand registre vocal et Adam peut vraiment couvrir le même. C’est un chanteur extraordinaire et un vrai talent. Il s’impose naturellement dans notre théâtralité. C’est très rassurant.”
Après cette tournée Adam Lambert terminera d’enregistrer son troisième album. Brian May et Roger Taylor vont de leur côté sortir une nouvelle compilation "Queen Forever" qui comprendra des inédits avec Freddie Mercury.

Februar 2015: Queen kommen für Konzert nach Wien
29. September 2014, 11:26
Konzert mit Gastsänger Adam Lambert am 1. Februar in der Stadthalle - Europatournee startet am 13. Jänner in Newcastle
Wien - Einmal geht's noch: Die britische Rockgruppe Queen kommt am 1. Februar in die Wiener Stadthalle, wie auf www.queenonline.com bekannt gegeben wurde. Als Gastsänger wird "American Idol"-Teilnehmer Adam Lambert zu sehen sein. Obwohl sich keinerlei Hinweise in der Ankündigung finden, kann man wohl vom Ende der Live-Ära einer der größten Bands der 1980er Jahre ausgehen.
Bereits diesen Sommer füllten die verbliebenen Bandmitglieder Brian May und Roger Taylor in Nordamerika, Australien, Neuseeland, Südkorea und Japan bei insgesamt 35 Auftritten die Hallen, mancherorts wurden aufgrund der hohen Nachfrage sogar Zusatztermine eingeschoben. Die Europa-Tournee startet am 13. Jänner in Newcastle und umfasst derzeit 21 Termine in zehn Ländern.
Zu erleben sein wird neben einem Best-Of der selbst ernannten "Champions" auch die eine oder andere akustische Überraschung. Mit im Gepäck haben die Rockveteranen nämlich dann ihr aktuelles Album "Queen Forever", das am 10. November erscheinen soll und neben einer Zusammenstellung teils eher ungeläufiger Songs ihres Gesamtkatalogs auch neues bzw. neu überarbeitetes Material enthält. (APA, 29.9.2014)

9 reasons to go and see Queen and Adam Lambert on tour
As if you really needed persuading
Monday 29th September 2014 by Alexandra Pollard
This morning, Queen and Adam Lambert revealed that they'll finally be returning to the UK for a series of tour dates in January.
If you're a Queen fan, it's unlikely you really need to be convinced - but there is a chance you're harbouring one of two reservations: 1) Aren't Brian May and Roger Taylor a bit, well, old? 2) How is that bloke off of American Idol ever going to ever fill the shoes of Freddie Mercury?
Like your musical guardian angels, we're here to put your mind at rest. Here are 8 reasons why, even though they're not the same band they were 40 years ago, you should still make a trip to see Queen's spectacular live show with Adam Lambert.
Adam Lambert: Let's start by addressing the leather-clad elephant in the room - Adam Lambert is not Freddie Mercury. Nor, thankfully, is he pretending to be. In his tenure as Queen's frontman, Lambert has gone all out to capture the spirit of Mercury's flamboyance, energy and powerful voice, without ever becoming an impersonator.
Nostalgia: During their gigs earlier this year, 'Bohemian Rhapsody' was preceded by video footage of the band's younger selves performing the operatic section, and in an unforgettable finale, Adam Lambert duetted with Freddie Mercury using stock recordings.
Taylor and May proving their ongoing stamina: We hate the industry's fixation on age, we really do, but at 65 and 67 respectively, Roger Taylor and Brian May would be forgiven for taking it a bit easy during extensive tours. Nope. Instead, Taylor performs drum solos with an ageless energy, and May struts the stage as well as he always did.
The visual spectacle: Including, but by no means limited to, rainbow stage lights, lazers, gold glitter showers and a floating drum riser.
Little-known numbers: Of course the setlist reads like a dream, but they'll also be throwing some welcome curveballs into the mix. Recently they've performed a re-imagined version of Mercury's 1984 solo song 'Love Kills', as well as 'Dragon Attack' and '39'.
Outfit changes galore: If you're worried a Queen gig sans Mercury might be lacking the glitzy campness of his stage persona, then you'll be happy to know that Lambert has at least eight costume changes during his shows, and May wears a gold cape.
Guest stars: We can't guarantee this of course, but Lady Gaga turned up during a recent show to lend her vocals to 'Another One Bites The Dust'. Such is Queen's enormous and far-reaching influence, they could ask pretty much anyone to come on stage with them, and they'd probably say yes.
New music: The tour is in support of Queen Forever, a compilation album which includes unreleased material recorded with Freddie Mercury. Expect to hear some of this new music showcased, either via a re-imagined Adam Lambert offering, or using Mercury's own vocals in a live setting. Either way, it'll be one to remember.
