Queen Killer

“We Will, We Will Rock You”

When an opportunity comes your way to see the band that made the “Stomp, Stomp, Clap” motion something even those without rhythm could handle, you take it.  I don’t even own a Queen album, but somehow I was right there with everyone else singing all the words for more than half of the songs at the concert. That is how you know a band is good, when they have been around long enough to penetrate generations without their listener’s knowledge. 

With legendary songs like “We are the Champions”, “Somebody to Love”, “Cray Little Thing Called Love”, “Under Pressure”, “Another One Bites the Dust”, and the multi-part epic “Bohemian Rhapsody”, could their concert really be anything but great? Queen + Adam Lambert did an amazing job of showcasing their hits with Adam at lead vocals while also beautifully weaving in tribute to the late Freddie Mercury.

Thanks Sue Schmidt for the invite!
