“Forty-seven years into its career, Queen proved it can still hold an audience in the palm of its hand.” - Dallas Observer

"Particularly stunning: the trinity of “Somebody to Love” (which started with just May’s guitar and Lambert’s vocals before building to its full gospel glory), “Crazy Little Thing Called Love,” and “Under Pressure”.

"So yes, Freddie’s dead. But Queen + Adam Lambert is no glorified tribute act or unholy music matrimony. And if you still Harrumph and Humbug, I don’t give — in the title of the Lone Adam Lambert/non-Queen song performed on the bill — ‘Two Fux.’” - Houston Press
