Adam is a very strong vocalist. Nobody can replace Freddie, I agree. Manifestor_of_Light Jun 2014 #4

It'd be like seeing The Doors without Jim Morrison, Nirvana without Kurt Cobain, Sublime without Brad Nowell, etc etc.

The tickets were actually reasonable by today's standards.

I'm old enough to have a $7.00 ticket for a Springsteen show in 1978 (Darkness on the Edge of Town, his second major tour) and that was about 15 years after my first pop concert when I was a little kid.
