Queen drummer Roger Taylor has said that this summer's shows with Adam Lambert will be "slightly experimental".

The classic rock band are set to team up with the American Idol singer for a number of European dates later this year, including two shows at London's HMV Hammersmith Apollo.

Speaking to Billboard, Taylor said the shows will be "slightly experimental", and he said they will "see how they go, how we get along over the course of a whole show."

The drummer admitted that himself and Brian May aren't wanting to line up too many things because of their increasing age. He added:

"Who knows what might happen. Brian and I are not the young men we were. We're not as bendy or flexible as we were...We really don't want to commit ourselves to too many things."
