They recorded an album of new songs about 15 years ago, with Paul Rodgers as vocalist, but as far as I know, they haven’t recorded any new songs with Adam Lambert. I saw them on tour with Lambert in 2014 and 2017, and other than one or two newer songs from Lambert’s solo work, it was all classic Queen songs.

Shucks, I’m flattered but I have no Instagram account. Or maybe I do but I forgot.

The rest of my family went to see them at the O2 last year (I didn’t go, couldn’t face it without Freddie) but they loved it and said it was pretty much all the hits, which was a lot.
