Adam Lambert Won't Be Fronting for Queen, at Least Not Yet: VIDEO
The UK's Sonisphere festival has been canceled, taking with it Adam Lambert's planned performance as frontman for Queen.
Tweeted Lambert: "While I'm sad that the Sonisphere festival has been cancelled, I'm hopeful that Queen and I will share a stage again someday in the future."
In the meantime, here's a video that went viral yesterday in which a drunk man in the back of a police car does a rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody".
Watch, AFTER THE JUMP...
They should just put on the Queen w/ Lambert concert alone as a one-off without the rest of Sonisphere. Much cheaper to produce than the whole thing, and that's all anyone was going to see anyway.

I thought it was hysterical, I was actually singing along with him. It also brought be back to those days when I got drunk and did stupid things (most of us have had them) but thank sweet Jebus, it was way before video

Yeah - just give Queen/Adam another venue and get it happening!!! A shame the organisers of Sonisphere bungled their management of it but another door opens I'm sure. In fact, I think Queen's keyboard player posted that very phrase on his FB today LOL. Great pic of Adam BTW! That drunk vid LMAO - how he know all the words when he's so drunk?

LOL! Umm.....I don't think Lambert has anything to fear from this guy...as long as he doesn't attempt to sing backup! ;D
Brian and Roger will find a way to make it happen! I can't wait! \o/

I wondered what had happened to Casey Abrams. He is giving concerts in the back seat of a police cruiser.

Sorry to all the Lambert fans, but I think Queen should drop him and just put in Marc Martel. Lambert does not have the vocal capacity to do any of the traditional Queen songs justice.

MARK,
Do you know Marc Martel? At all? I have known him for years and the only thing about your comment I can agree with is that he is a Christian. But I've got news for you. We are not all anti-gay bigots. Some of us actually do what Jesus told us to do.
