Queen + Adam Lambert - Behind The Magic 

'I'm Jim, I'm the Stage Manager and one of my responsibilities is to feel important....' I lost it...HAHAHAHAHA

Came here for actual behind the scenes look... Got this instead... Was not disappointed.

They all have sense of humor. They wouldn't be able to stay calmed and serious without it. And, I like that sense of humor!

Too funny....I can't believe how all those guys kept such serious faces on while doing this HILARIOUS spoof on what goes on behind the scenes. They could be ACTORS, especially the two couch (chaise lounge) guys. Lol

"I'm Andy and this is my colleague, Mike, we are the chaise lounge techs" lol

"Why do you sit next to them?" "Cause they're my drums." Love it! Brilliant!

I could not imagine anyone better than Adam for this job. He fits like a glove with Queen. This is a brilliant video :)

I went to see Queen + Adam Lambert and they rocked amazing Sheffield 27/2/2015 amazing best concert ever thank you 😘💞💞💞💞💞😉

"I sit next to the drums" was the best bit!

On the FREDDIE GO & HOME BUTTON "If Freddie doesn't appear, I'd have to push that button and it will order me a taxi home" LMFAO

The chaise longue guys are priceless :D

LMAO at 4:04. "Jimi Hendricks"🤣 Then the "hay! " and big guitar drop. 🤣🤣🤣. Good one.

11:55 "Safety first!" * goes on half tripping on the stairs just before Adam gets on stage * 😤😂😂😂

Brilliant, laughed all the way through. Was expecting to see the serious side of things, so it came as a surprise. Thanks all involved.

I'm not sure which 111 people disliked this, but they all need a day off. From the internet. To re-evaluate their lives. This is and will always be, one of the best behind the scenes videos. It is oscar-worthy. Steve P you legend!

7:52 "looks like Brian May's hair", lost it there xD

"Oh, no! All my purple knobs have gone blue!"

I absolutely love this and the sense of humor exhibited by all of the crew. I adore all the "Don't tell Jill" comments. It shows why Brian said at today's final show that this was the most fun they've ever had on tour. Adam is not only brilliant but also has a great sense of humor and obviously they all do, on stage and off. I hope this is part of the tour DVD which I am counting on being made, along with some serious bits as well. Don't allow the naysayers to get to you at all, they don't deserve that power. It is obvious that everyone who was part of the tour and 99.99% of those who experienced one or more shows had the time of their lives. I sure did at the 6 shows I attended and the dozens more I've enjoyed on live stream and video. Long live (the) Queen!!!

BRILLIANT! !!! Queen and Adam Lambert 4 EVER! #QueenBertsRockOn

OMG, these guys were hysterical! What a fantastic group of people to work with!

Can't tell you how many times I've watched this. Love it!!!! "I got a letter from my Mom."

HIlarious! Loved seeing this. Great sense of humor from the crew.

That's priceless! Can't wait to see Queen and my King Adam in Rock in Rio!!!

I love this "behind the magic" Please MORE OF THAT JAZZ :)

When I was at their concert this summer I was looking on stage when they were arranging and saw about all the people in this video and there was a guy who shouted Pete and Pete turned around and waved , it was pretty cool , they're all so amazing

This is sooo funny, expected something serious...should have known better!! Thanks guys for a laugh at the end of an unbelievable tour and for bringing Queen back. Only Adam has the chops, the attitude, and the talent to bring back this Iconic band. Roger & Brian are better than ever! See you in Rio!!

Loved this it's great to see members of the crew . And what a great way to do it Laughed so much

Thanx for the beautiful memories! Thanx for putting your faith in Adam.I hope I get to see you guys someday :(

Omg! Can you just imagine how much fun they must all have. They truly are one big happy family. I tried so hard to concentrate on the video but all I could hear was Adam‘s beautiful voice in the background singing “I want to be break free”. 😂

"No, if Freddie doesn't appear on the screen, I have to push that button and it orders me a taxi home..." Lol, how do any of them keep a straight face?? XD

Andy and Mike - let me convey my deepest appreciation for the Chaiselounge handling. I was deeply impessed with the speedy appearance and re-packing right AFTER THE SONG! Honestly, sitting right next to the action you couldn't miss the efficiency this was conducted with! Wow!

Oscars for the Chaise lounge guys keeping a straight face! Thanks for the laughs!

This is an example of why we not only know that Queen is an amazing band, ... the sense of humor you show here lets us know that the temperament of everyone involved with Queen feels relaxed & not pretentious. I have a great fondness for each individual member since watching them on tour with Adam. Queen has always been my favorite rock band & Adam Lambert is my favorite singer/performer. They create magic when they are on stage together & this video is hilarious ... thank you for the laughs on this day of mourning that the tour is over ~

😊LOL😄 this is pure entertainment! But don't tell Jill, & glad ugot Brian's hair back in the reel 😆 & also, I wud'v loved to hang out in the chaise lounge w/those two wranglers 😁hahahaaa! I want that job! Thanks I really enjoyed this, God bless everyone of 😚u guys, great job!

I would love to see the blooper reel from this! They must’ve cracked themselves up filming this.

Espero vocês no Brasil! Lambert is great!!! Good vibe!!!

Love Queen. Love Adam. This is hilarious!! I really want to hear Brian sing Like a Virgin lol

Love it, guys. Highly amusing, just like your Queen's Greatest Hits commercial! Queen is as amazing as ever. The Queen + Adam Lambert concerts were the best 2 concerts I've ever been to!

That's hilarious! Brilliant! I love QUEEN and Freddie Mercury. Adam Lambert does Freddie and Queen justice. His voice and stage presence is stunning. I saw them twice live and was blown away.

THEY REALLY TOOK THE TIME TO MAKE THIS. I genuinely believed it at first an then realised after like 2 minutes.. Fabulous work.

How I haven't seen this before? this so funny, I'm expecting seriousness but Im laughing all the way🤣, shout out to all the crew who participate on this, Great team,Great Band!

"Brian's absolutely enamored with this guitar, it's really quite special to him...Oh damn!! It's OK I can tape it!" God I love these guys!!! Absolutely AWESOME crew!! Thank you guys for being there and WORKING so hard to make Queen come to LIFE!!

To follow my last post. I have been a Queen fan from the very first day that they graced a stage. I have been lucky to catch 4 of their shows over the years, the last being 1986 at Slane here in Ireland, Little knowing that it would be Freddie's last tour :( . I have to say in my own humble opinion and from a singer's perspective, That Adam is an incredible singer and performer, and everyone has their own opinion on the matter. But when either a new player or singer joins a band, they bring something different and new to the table and I think Adam has brought a new lease of life to the show, I mean something that is giving Brian and Roger a great blast and fun, which is always great. Just a quick "For instance" I can't remember to hand which song it was during one of their concerts, but Spike was tearing away at a rip roaring piano solo and Adam went over to his side of the stage and leaned over the top of the keys and started belting out on the top register of the keys, quickly followed by Brian who proceeded to accompany Adam by also leaning over and lending his keyboard skills as well. Now to watch this, and as a musician, this is what it's all about, Enjoying your gig!! and when the audience see you enjoying what you do, they will follow suit. It's simply sending the good vibes from the stage out to the audience, them feeling the good vibes subsequently returning the vibes back on to the stage that the guys feel the feedback, and when they experience this, that gives a serious buzz which then continues by simply sending and receiving the vibes resulting in the best feel good experience for everyone involved, The band AND The audience. But to finish up on what my first point was, There was and only ever will be one Freddie (God rest his soul) Adam has shown wonderful flamboyance and an impeccable vocal range in his performances and is a really nice guy who feels humbled to be in the company of men that were heroes of his as a kid, and I'm sure Freddie looks down from above and says YEAH!!!!!!! After all, to quote Freddie, "Here's my music, go and use it" God Save "QUEEN" :)

18/09 Rock in Rio! Welcome back to Brazil!!! Welcome Adam!!! :)

Saw them at work before the pandemic….yeah I cried a little.

This was so wonderful. You guys are the funniest ever. You obviously have a ball together and I a so envious of people who get to work in jobs where they can have this kind of fun. Your amazing, thank you.

This band was and is so amazing

I love this fun look behind the scenes.....great job guys....your hard work is appreciated

BRILLIANT!! all of the people involved in this did a great job, I can only imagine what the outtakes look like :-) :-) its great to see the people behind the production. I'm an old school Queen fan, and have nothing but praise for the production and performances of this tour. Adam's done a fantastic job, and I'd like to see some of the negative posters get up on stage and do what he does!!

Came across this video, too funny....love Queen and Adam and the crew.

This is without doubt THE BEST behind the scenes video I've ever seen!!! I'm a singer/bass player. I've been gigging 41 years this year

So funny! I love that all of them have such a great sense of humor including Brian, Roger, Spike, Neil & Adam. Funniest guys - no wonder the show is so damn good - the awesome chemistry we see on stage extends to the crew as well. I really wish the miserable nay-sayers would rack off tho & stop spoiling things for everyone else. It's been months now and this collaboration has proven itself to be an absolute gem. Besides this is a funny video by the crew made just for fun. Enjoy it and stop whining for a change.

Hysterical!!! the sofa movers and Adams leopard underwear. Too funny! But all joking aside, it was the most amazing production I've ever seen in my life!!!! Gorgeous set from top to bottom & beginning to end. The lasers, flashing color lights, the smoke, and the Gold!! The pictures &vids from QAL show have turned out extraordinarily gorgeous!! Topped off with the Best musicians in the World! Adam's Amazing Supernatural Voice made it The Cherry for a Total Royal Epic Show...you can feel Freddie smiling :)) Thank You to ALL who made this tour happen and be so successful!

I wasn't expecting it to be this funny! I loved it!

Absolute class ...!

This is a fun way to introduce some of the crew, and the first 19 seconds shows the enormous amount of work that goes into getting the stage ready for the show.

God! The tour was awesome!!! ^.^ Adam's vocals

What an unexpected, wonderfully funny video. Couldn’t stop myself laughing. Thanks for this! 🤣🤣🤣👑👑❤️

These guys have a great sense of humor! Wonderful team!

Ian, the electrician: "It's all the same, really. Electricity and water."

Pretty sure some of those undies 10:25 are the ones thrown on stage to Adam during concerts LOL

Nice credit to all the crews too.

Great fun! nice to see the folks behind the scenes as well, obviously very good at their jobs.

Loved the priceless Jimi Hendrix guitar! Excellent video, love Queen!

Freakin hysterical! Love the Brits

Whenever I want to smile/laugh, I watch this video. Verrryy funny 😄.

like watching a "Monty Python" sketch with Queen music. So happy!

This is hilarious! What a great team of people they have on tour with them. The greatest concert iv ever been too!xxx

So I spent some hours seriously working at sorting trough my and my friends pics for a picture book on the QAL concerts we saw, and then I stumble across this and I just laugh and love it and am happy, because this reflects the whole tour so much better .... thanks a ton for this vid!!! Going back to my little corner of the tour ... and I just might add a screenshot here and there of behindthescenes I never saw.

This video should be titled: how long can we loop I want to break free?

Hysterical! Laughed the entire time!!!!!!

Cracks me up, what a good video. So funny. Y'know, I'm so tired of the 'we should go back to 1986' commenters. I understand loving Freddie and being loyal, but being loyal shouldn't make you deaf and really, really dumb.

I saw the chaise lounge guy live in action at the show! :)

I thought this was a legitimate BTS video. This is so much better.

Just hilarious indeed!!!:) Crews behind the scene are very important people to appreciates the most!!!:)

Perfection

So much fun!!!

I see some people do not have a sense of humor. This is hysterical, TY for drying my tears from the tour being over today !

drum keeper - give him a bloody medal!! xxxxxxxxxxxxx

This video is amazing! You guys are so much fun, and incredibly talented. Thank you for being such a fantastic team! We love you ❤

PLEASE, someone tell me how they did this with straight faces?!?!?! I have had to pause this video so many times because I was laughing and crying so hard!! I hope everyone realizes that concerts can not happen without ALL these great people working in the background. Got room for one more person?

What a great group of, I’m sure, the best in the business!! Hilarious!! The “chaise longue” Hysterical! And Pete 🤣!

Fantastic tour, and great humour.. Thanks for posting, and to all the backstage crew, I thank you all for doing such a outstanding job, each and everyone of you.

LOVE Queen and think Adam Lambert does a great job of being himself and trying not to be the FANTASTIC Freddie.:)

Absolutely brilliant, love that everyone has a little joke now and then.

The best crew out on the road

awwlol LOVE this! "How did you get the job wrangling the.. couch?" :D thank you to ALL who made this tour possible

Fabulous, that was so funny!! Brilliant...just like the tour! x

This is hysterical, Thanks for the laughs, OMG

LOVE THIS!!! Humor is a great quality

OMG! This is absolutely hysterical! Loved the security guy: Are you cold? You're dressed like a ninja. Here, you need a pass. LoL 😂😆😅💜

Loving this!

Absolutely hilarious. Loved seeing you in January. Life-long dream finally realised. Best concert I've ever been to!

Okay, while I can still chime in, check out the hysterical section between 3.51 and 4.32 when Brian's guitar handler drops the supposed guitar from the hand scrawled "Jimi Hendricks" guitar that shatters. Anyone notice that major spelling error in Hendrix's last name?..not to mention the fake guitar.

So funny. LOL Thanks for letting us get a glimpse, of how much fun and yet hard work it is to do this tour. Love this behind the scenes look, gives a really good insight, in spite of all the dead pan humor, making it all look simple. All the love comes through, too, just like it does on stage.

this would be a hilarious group to tour with 😀

So good!!!

All you guys are absolutely amazing! Thank you!

Yeah! It's a kind of magic!!!

ADAM LAMBERT
