It was 2 1/2 hrs of pure fun, it could have gone on for 6 hrs and I still would not heard all of queen songs. Seeing the boys after 30 odd yrs was incredible. The drum battle between roger and his son was wicked sorry but dad won the battle but to have his son on stage with him shows how eternal queen is. Brian was fantastic, the stage show incredible. Having freddie and adam singing bohemian raspady was a master stroke. Adam was perfect, his power and range makes him a perfect replacement for freddy. Love you freddy, love u queen

Over two hours of pure bliss!
Queen + Adam Lambert was everything and more that I expected. They were amazing! I hope they continue this collaboration and give Europe and South America a chance to see an incredible musical event.
I went to the same show in Melbourne, but Auckland (day 1) was 100% better. The show itself was the same but the audience involvement was on another level. The patrons were seated on time and there was much less coming and going throughout the performance.

Best concert I have ever been to! All my favourite songs and the big round screen centre stage enabled everyone to get a good view. All the band were awesome, but Adam Lambert was a standout for me - he is incredibly talented and his voice is just amazing.

The concert itself was as good as I was hoping it would be. However, the so-called best seats in the house, down on the floor, were total crap. I couldn't see the stage and I couldn't see the performers. I was in row 39.

Music and songs were hypnotic as usual for Queen, Adam Lambert great emerging talent, didn't try to be Freddie, just himself, so presented well. The light show was far too intense for me and was a minus as it detracted from the show overall and left me dazed and unable to focus on the performers (lets face it, most Queen aficionados are not that young anymore). Props and costumes were excellent, not sure if Vector is the best venue available for this type of concert.

The Queen concert was the best one I have ever been to. Brian May, and Roger Taylor were exceptional, and it was so good to see them playing live. I felt Adam Lambert was very good and was extremely entertaining and didn't try and be Freddie, which I felt was very respectful and tasteful. Freddie would have been very proud! It was a lovely tribute having Freddie singing a few songs.

We are so fortunate to have the Vector Arena at our doorstep, so we can see incredible Bands like Queen

The standard of musicianship was world class, and I feel Queen is the best Band ever!

Adam stole the show for me with his amazing vocal range and his stage presence. He was the perfect mix of talented superstar and yet still having that humble, boyish charm. I was surprised at how well Brian May and Roger Taylor could still sing, and their prowess on guitar and drums was impressive.

Wonderful show, nobody trying to be Freddie Mercury but including his memory in the show with key video moments. Great to hear Brian May and Roger Taylor sing.
And I would see Adam Lambert anyway, but with Queen he was exceptional
Just wish they would play Is this the world we created

Have been to Vector before and would not have raved about it. This time I enjoyed it immensely - the food was good, loved the way they bought the stage out so you could see the band even closer and there was no warm up band. Well done to everyone involved - fantastic night and would have loved to see it again!!!!!!

I have been a Queen fan for 26 years. I never dreamed I would ever get the opportunity to see them in concert after Freddie's passing and John's retiring. However adding Adam Lambert to the existing members was absolute genius. Adam never once stopped being himself or tried to be Freddie, a fact which most fans really appreciate. As a result of this Adam now has a lot more 'Glamberts" including myself.
Watching Brian and Rodger play is like watching a master - you know you are in the company of pure genius's.
I was pleased to be able to watch Rufus Tiger Taylor as he was just born when I was in the Queen fan club. I will be interested to see where his career goes.

An awesome show. The music was faultless and Adam didn't have to compete with Freddie as he is a star in his own right. What an amazing combination!!

VIP seats were brilliant but audience shouldn't be permitted to stand between seats and stage as we were not able to see the stage even though right next to it..

No one can replace the great Freddie Mercury but Adam Lambert did something special with Roger and Brian.. He gave new life to some of the greatest songs ever written and I'm pretty sure Freddie would have been greatly flattered and appreciative of the amazing interpretation that Adam provided the world of Queen fans. Hats off to an amazing show.

This was a family night out for me. My father had the pleasure of seeing Queen live when Freddie was in the band. I however did not :(

He reckoned that Adam Lambert was equally as good as Freddie vocally. I fully agree having been a Queen fan for as long as I can remember I truly believe that if you closed your eyes you could have sworn it was Freddie singing.

The costumes Adam wore paid tribute to the sort of things Freddie would wear.

I also really enjoyed the drum off between Roger taylor and Rufus Taylor. I think this added an extra element to the concert and must have been agreat thrill for both father and son.
