Thank you, Queen. I seriously thought we had successfully avoided having to mention the name Adam Lambert on this site. But thanks to the band, the American Idol runner-up not only gets a mention, he may be appearing quite often in the coming months. You see, with Paul Rodgers now out of the picture, Queen [...]
