Queen + Adam Lambert To Play Australia Feb 2018

Queen + Adam Lambert will return to Australia in 2018.

Queen’s 2014 Australia tour with Adam Lambert was every bit as flamboyant and aggressive a show you expected from the original line-up. Fans who didn’t go because “it wasn’t Freddie” made the wrong decision.

The Queen + Adam Lambert setlist digs deep into not only the classics but also the album cuts. Queen fans know their albums from start to finish. For every ‘Killer Queen’ and ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ there was also a ‘Stone Cold Crazy’ or ‘Seven Seas of Rhye’.

The signature sound of the band is kept in toe by guitarist Brian May and with Roger Taylor on drums. Taylor was also a major songwriter for Queen contributing ‘Radio Ga Ga’ and ‘A Kind of Magic’.

This show is big and it rocks hard.

Toto’s 2025 setlist focuses on the heritage of the band. The setlist was interesting. Compared to how it was curated for Australia in 2019 this time Toto kept to the albums of the 1900s. Mind you, there were no complaints from the audience for doing that. The biggest hits came from those early years.
