Adam Lambert on Queen's Australian tour announcement: 'Magic will be on display'

Earlier this week, vocal powerhouse Adam Lambert and superstar rock band Queen announced details of an Australian leg of their upcoming tour and the 'Trespassing' hitmaker has revealed that it will be nothing short of a 'magic' set of concerts.

Speaking in a statement, Lambert said: "I’m completely in awe of the Queen phenomenon. The thought of sharing the stage for a full set in Australia is so beautifully surreal. I’m honoured to be able to pay my respects to Freddie’s memory; he’s a personal hero of mine, and I am deeply grateful for the chance to sing such powerful music for fans of this legendary band."

“I know this tour will be a huge milestone for me, and with the support of Brian, Roger and the rest of the band, I feel like magic will be on display.”

The tour's promoter down under, Paul Dainty, added that it's an important run of dates for fans who want to catch the iconic rock band live: "This may be the last chance Australian fans have to see one of the greatest rock bands in history."

Tickets for the Australian leg of the group's tour will go on sale on May 28 and the full list of dates can be seen below:
