Adam has apparently wrapped up his US radio promo tour, at least for the moment, as April begins. Above we see Adam as he spent the last several weeks – hard at work with promo. This is (hopefully) finally the last month – for real – before Adam’s new “Trespassing” album will be released. The album is scheduled to drop on May 15. Will we get a second single ahead of the album release date? Will Adam perform on American Idol sometime in the next several weeks? We’ll know soon – in the meantime enjoy the chat!

    Also, I wanted to say that my primary physician’s son is in the Idol band this season. He is a guitarist, but I believe that was him playing “fiddle” coming down the stairs behind Skylar on her second song. The camera doesn’t focus on the musicians.

    Have found out this is not my doctor’s son. The violin/fiddle player is one of the brothers from the country band Sons of Sylvia. I gotta keep watching the guitarists I guess to see my guy.

    Found this version of Underneath online. I assume that it’s just the extended snippet looped twice, but there’s also a modulation and an actual “ending.” So I don’t know if it’s just clever editing, or if the real song actually leaked. I think it’s probably the former, but in any case, even if it’s not the real thing, you still get to listen to that beautiful voice and song without it abruptly cutting off way too soon.

    FYI – here is a list of the other albums are being released on the same day as Adam’s. So this is his “competition” for that debut week:

    Cher, is that extra in addition to the ones I want from you???

    Yes ma’am. Yours are safe. Grin We have really nice Glambert friends who stayed up or got up early to help us out even though they are not going to London. I would like to thank francegf, pppofp, colligahou, floridagirl and my son for helping us out. Like I said, we have more than enough. Just waiting to actually physically receive them before finding Glamberts who don’t have any. Kiss

  6. rs says:

    Just want to say out loud on here that Cher is a gem, and has been a great help over this ticket fiasco to several of us here, and hopefully several of us will be able to get to see Adam because of her.

    Absolutely true! Clap

    Thanks for that info, cwm. I thought I read somewhere that Willie Nelson was releasing an album on the 15th, but it’s not on the list, which is good. Adam should have the big seller out of these releases (R. Kelly might do well?), but I sure am glad Adam’s not releasing the next week – poor Kris!

    ETA: That list is really interesting – shows previous release date, first week sales and then total sales. Noticed that Carrie’s releasing hers two weeks before Adam, and Sade’s opening the week before. Was surprised to see that Sade sold over 500,000 in the first week on her last release in 2010 – wow!

    Texas, I totally agree – what were they thinking?

  10. glambotgram says:

    Who here is going to try for tickets for Wilkes Barre? I just booked a room in the hopes that I do get through to get tickets.

    I can’t believe I am really going to do this. Not like me at all. LOL

  11. cgesq says:

    Hi Glambotgram,
    So far, I am trying for tkts, along with Sparkle. I think others may be coming also….possibly Kradamour, Adamized, and Luval.
    Hopefully, whoever is going can meet up before the show. It should be great. Smile
    Good luck getting tkts. I haven’t signed up with the venue for the members only presale tomorrow, but I’ll try anyway. Otherwise, there is always Monday.
    Where are you coming from?

  12. sparkle says:

    cgesq – are you interested in the M&G? I’ve never gone to one so I wouldn’t mind splurging. Any one in our group still members of the Kirby Center so we can get in on the pre-sale? Does anyone remember how many tickets were available last time for the pre-sale? As I recall, some folks signed up and paid to be members but didn’t get tickets until the general sale. But that might be another venue I’m thinking about.

  13. cgesq says:

    Sparkle,
    I think this presale is offered through a radio station and the venue…not through Adam official or the fan site. I joined the fan site last year, but was never able to get tkts via the presale through them.
    I signed up with the radio station, 98.5 krz that’s sponsoring the show to see if I could get a code for tomorrow. I’m not optimistic, because I never have luck with these things.
    I just called the venue and was told that becoming a member of the Kirby Center will not guarantee that you will be able to get a tkt during the presale. Only a small percentage will be sold during the presale, and she said she thinks demand will exceed supply.(Deja vu all over again!!) Given that, I’m probably going to try on Monday.
    I’m not interested in a M & G. Not sure I want my pic taken with Adam!!

  14. glambotgram says:

    cgesq I am coming from MI just north of Toledo OH.
    I am interested in a M&G I am going to try for that tomorrow, I am just worried that if I don’t get through to get it, then the $60 tickets would be gone. I signed up at the radio station and texted ADAM to them and they will give out a presale code tomorrow morning at 9, presale at 10am. here is the link
    http://www.985krz.com/Adam-Lambert/12848245#.T4w3E4Un9UM.twitter

    ETA I see we posted almost the same thing at the same time.

  15. milwlovesadam says:

    cgesq: I can’t tell you what to do, but, if you have an opportunity to meet the man, don’t let a picture hold you back!! Meeting him is just heaven on earth.

    I learned that it doesn’t matter what you think you look like, how hard you try to look your best. Adam is so beautiful, nobody is more beautiful than him. But, he appreciates everybody, thin or chunky, tall or short, made up or not made up. He’s nice to all.

  16. sparkle says:

    Hi glambotgram! Thanks for the link – I signed up for the VIP Club to get the presale code. From the radio’s website, they have a limited number of tickets available, including some M & G’s. I’ll be calling the radio station tomorrow morning and I’ll try to get M&G tickets for both of us or regular tickets for the 3 (including cgesq) of us. If we all do the same, maybe 1 of us will get lucky!

  17. glambotgram says:

    sparkle Hi that sounds good. I am sure if we end up with extra tickets someone will need them. I think I am even going to see if my daughter will try for them too.

    I felt that about Adam from watching all of these radio station promos and looking at the pictures. I am glad because this fan is beyond the “chunky”.

  19. riskylady says:

    Two questions:
    1) My iTunes doesn’t have ANY snippets for the album, except for NCOE. Does anyone have snippets?
    2) Yesterday on Twitter they were saying that NCOE mysteriously disappeared from a bunch of countries iTunes. Anyone know what happened?

  20. glambotgram says:

    nkd So SHADY is about the night they met. No wonder we are all having Happy Pants when we listen to it!

  21. nkd says:

    riskylady the snippets are only on the regular version, not deluxe. Try that.

    glambotgram…I know!

  22. ultimathule says:

    nkd Only snippet I’ve got on iTunes is NCOE on the Deluxe version – NO snippets on the regular – not even NCOE.
    Different iTunes for different areas?

  23. riskylady says:

    Tks, nkd. Nope, no snippets on the regular version at all. South Florida is shunned (well, they only play rap and crap on the radio, that could be why). But we did have two sold-out GNT concerts (the Hard Rock was 6,500!) and a huge baseball audience (32,000 more or less). Oh, well…….thank goodness for Australian snippets and ninjas.

  24. nkd says:

    That’s weird riskylady and ultimathule. I thought US itunes was all the same. On mine, on the regular version of Trespassing the songs are still grey but the arrows work on the numbers to play the snippets.

  25. dcglam says:

    Texas, you are so right about Carrie’s album cover. I remember there being quite a lengthy discussion over at MJ’s at the time it was released. Many peeps felt the same way.

    And once again, Adam shows his support for Kris (from last night) with Adam tweeting to Kris, “Excited to hear you sing Vision of Love tomorrow night!” Kris responded, “Thanks man! Its gonna be fun!”

  26. cgesq says:

    Sparkle and Glambotgram,
    I signed up at the radio station, but never got the link to the VIP part. I hope they have my email and will send me the presale codes, so I can try tomorrow.
    Fingers crossed!!!

  27. ultimathule says:

    Re Carrie’s cover – a number of us at MJ’s agreed it looks like the cover of a cheap romance novel.
    To tell the truth, think Carrie’s either bow-legged or knock-kneed – whenever she walks on stage she always puts one leg in front of the other – does it in vids, too. Others have mentioned it, too. Definitely something going on – she can’t move or dance well either.
    Have gone through all her music and haven’t dl’d anything. With this new album thinks it appears she’s looking for crossover and a Euro opening. Trying to make her sexy – lots of luck with that. Find everything about her bland. Seems to be a nice girl, but she lacks zip.

  28. riskylady says:

    Agree, ultima. Carrie’s song Good Girl and the video are supposed to be about good girl/bad girl (sound familiar?). She is totally unbelievable as a “bad girl” – there has never been anything in her life that even remotely smacks of naughtiness LOL.
    Now, Adam, on the other hand – soooo believable as dark and light! He really lives it.
    I think vanilla Carrie….wait, I don’t want to even use vanilla. Let me say “margarine” Carrie will have a hard time at least in Europe competing with the Jessie J’s, Nicole’s, and other European vixens.

  29. JOJOSIE says:

    Question As a Taylor Hicks fan, I still follow him on twitter. He just tweeted that he has an exciting announcement to make on Idol tonight. Not sure what that could be. He’s not appeared on Idol for two years and has nothing new that I know of. Oh well. I haven’t heard Kris’s new single yet so I guess I will tonight. Who’s going home? Adam must have been watching last night as he had several tweets about the show. Question

  30. riskylady says:
  31. ultimathule says:

    Don’t know if any followed the Band in the day, but Levon Helm died at 71. He did an album in about 2009 – Electric Dirt – which is just great. Amazing career.

  32. dcglam says:

    Maybe Taylor Hicks will be performing Barry Manilow’s American Bandstand in honor of Dick Clark. I don’t know if that would necessarily be an “announcement”, though.

  33. dcglam says:

    Nice article, riskylady!

    Another concert Riskylady? Wow! I’m already doing 2. Not changing anymore plans for that London trip. What a headache and very expensive. What we Glamberts do for Adam! Sigh……

    LMFAO…after all some of us have been through on the 11th & 12th!!!! Duke and I did get actual seats both days–not great– as far back as row U block 4 one day and row H BUT block 1(so in the far corner). But I believe everything will be fine. WE’re there and that’s a good thing.
    Can’t imagine trying for a 3rd date. So wanted to go to Russia but that part of trip just isn’t working out.

    rs I think it was you who gave me some great tips on St Petersburg-Moscow river cruise and I thank you for that but everything is way too expensive and the air doesn’t fit in the schedule right etc.etc etc…bla, bla,bla. So It looks like on to Plan C ….whatever that is. THat change of dates from the 7th to 11th& 12th really killed us all.

    Anyway, I have 2 GA tkts for July 11 for sale at face value if it turns out someone needs/wants them.

    Now off to trying to catch up here. Ta, ta!

  35. Ceddies says:

    Sorry to hear about Levon Helm, ultima. My mom and I shared a huge appreciation of his voice and style, particularly my mom.

  36. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    I’m needing to hear an official announcement of Adam’s AI performance! Did I miss it? Is it confirmed?

    Just listened to Kris perform his new single. Sounds like that’s a hard song to perform live… Wink

  37. glambotgram says:

    LOLTexas Does that mean I should probably FF through it on DVR Grin

  38. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Does that mean I should probably FF through it on DVR

    Well, I really do wish him well, but I didn’t care for that performance! Honestly, I think that song would be a challenge even for Mr. Wonderful to sing – thought that Kris would be challenged by it the first time I heard it. BTW, I think it’s so sweet how Adam supports and gives shout outs to Kris – no wonder we all love him so much!

    ETA: Wonder about Kris’ decision to start the performance seated at the revolving piano? That meant that he was hidden from the audience 50% of the time – Adam would NEVER have done that, he’s too smart!

  39. adamized says:

    Evening Peeps! So happy to hear some of you will be going to WB in May. Kradamour, luval, and I are going to try and get tickets. We already have hotel reservations. Meeting up for dinner before would be fun if we get there in time. If not, we could certainly do something after the concert. Leaving for an extended vacation on Sunday but more excited about the concert in May. Am madly in love with the snippets!!!!!!!!!!!

  40. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Wow, surprise elimination on AI!!! Don’t wanna spoil it for you West Coasters, but wow!

  42. AL says:

    Just listened to Kris perform his new single.

    I’m curious to see how the performance affects the sales of the single. No idea where it is now on iTunes but I’m sure it will sell a few more copies after being on Idol.
    Adam will have the same opportunity in a couple of weeks. Hopefully, he sings NCOE on Idol the week before the album comes out – double promo for single and album!

  43. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Thanks for sharing, AL – love it!

  44. ultimathule says:

    That’s an interesting observation, Texas – Adam is too much of a showman to keep himself hidden for such a long time – he knows the value of his face – lol.

  45. nkd says:
  46. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    nkd, that pic is so cool!

    Adam is too much of a showman to keep himself hidden for such a long time – he knows the value of his face – lol.

    ultimathule, I think his face is getting more and more valuable every day! Damn, could he get more beautiful??? Every picture I see lately is better than the last, which I wouldn’t have thought possible. For example, AL’s last offering:

    mmmm, so pretty. Beauty

  47. glambotgram says:

    LOLnkd there is something kind of freaky about Freddie with that big bustled behind. Definitely funny.

  48. Northern Spirit says:

    riskylady, cwm, rs, little duchess, cher, it will be great to see you all over at the Apollo Hammersmith July 11th and 12th. TLKC and I have Block 10, row D on the 11th and we’re going to do GA on the 12, although I do have crappy seats (Block 6, row W) as a back up that day. We’re arriving in London June 30th and leaving on the 13th. We changed our flights the day before we heard of a possible 3 concert, but I think 2 concerts will be fine for us.

  49. nkd says:

    The picture AL posted is on the making of DVD.

    Maybe it’s also one of the lithographs too!
    I can’t wait to get my hands on the goodies from AO.

  50. Ceddies says:

    adamized, sorry to say I will miss being with you, krad, and luval in WB. I’m so happy you guys are making plans to go—as well as everyone else who is planning to go. Here’s to a good, fun, relaxing extended vacation in the meantime. Drink Coffee Pizza Cake Plate Angel
