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!

    Wow there are some very articulate posts here this morning.

    Our boy will be fine, I want massive success for him also, but as Kradamour said above, we will keep him in boots and jackets for many many years. And most important of all he has love.

    ETA Has anyone here received their Fault magazine?

  2. cwm says:

    Teri63 – I always love your posts (here and at MJs)! Always articulate, well-thought out, knowledgeable, and optimistic, grounded in reality and realistic expectations. Thank you. Smile

  3. ultimathule says:

    Haven’t received FAULT yet.

    Got the small silver key.

    Thanks to all helping me with my angst today – great to come here and have sensible people tamp it down. Darn black Irish pessimism poking its head out.

  4. Teri63 says:

    Aww, thanks cwm! I love chatting and sharing this fun fandom with all of you!

  5. glambotgram says:

    ultimathule I received my silver key also. It is beautiful, I can’t decide if I am going to put it on a chain or make a pin out of it. I don’t like the cord it is on.

  6. Kradamour says:

    Teri63: what cwm said!

    Just checked stubhub…prices for Wilkes Barre are NUTS. And look: one person has ten seats for sale. Scalping, much? Stubhub is a necessary evil, but I HATE that peeps make money off of Adam in this way. StubHub should be for peeps who legitimately can’t use a ticket, upgraded a ticket, whatever and have an extra.
    (deep breath) Okay, way too idealistic.

  7. glambotgram says:

    Kradamour I agree I was looking on there last night. It’s crazy. I thought scalping was illegal at least I can remember policemen arresting people outside of venues for scalping. I do not see the difference in Stubhub and scalping.

  8. ultimathule says:

    How does that one person get ten seats?

  9. Kradamour says:

    ulti, that’s a question we asked constantly during glamnation!

    Especially the time that seats appeared on stubhub prior to the presale…

  10. Kradamour says:

    I do not see the difference in Stubhub and scalping.

    That, glambo, is because there isn’t any. Frown

  11. cwm says:

    Hmmmm. So this is interesting. Check out what Kevin has programmed into his keyboard. The plot thickens…

    Kevin Hastings ‏ @kevmokeys
    I love my job!! I live by this keyboard. Thanks @KorgUSA!! http://twitpic.com/9cidhp

    I’ll guess we’ll find out the keyboardist situation soon enough!

  12. riskylady says:

    That Brian London guy does a lot of work for a lot of people, so I can see where he may not be available all the time for Adam. I liked Kevin’s work with Adam, so if they alternate, well, good! And maybe Brian London will never be able to tour with Adam because of all his obligations.

    Anyway, I watched The Insider last night, and REALLY????? The Dick Clark thing was minuscule, compared to all the other GARBAGE they left in (Bieber’s new supposedly “sexy” video, Bieber’s girlfriend not being able to recognize his new perfume, some guy who gained weight, lost weight, gained weight WTF????
    Didn’t they do this to us once before? Or was it ET, their sister show?

  13. riskylady says:

    Love that throwaway line by Sauli in his interview, “Nice bed, plenty of room for sleeping.” LOL.

  14. cwm says:

    Good point, riskylady. I too would be surprised if Brian London was able to do every gig with Adam. He does work with a lot of people. So there may well be some alternating going on.

  15. luval says:

    Am out of town right now but read the posts about scalping. It is legal in both New York and Pennsylvania as well as other states.

  16. cwm says:

    This is fun. Someone put the Shady snippets together with all of the pics and vids in the studio with Nile Rodgers to create a “making of Shady” video:

    Hi Guys,

    I am so happy I found all the familiar names here! It brings back the good old memories at mjs. Thank you all. You don’t know me because I do not post at mjs. I miss those wonderful posts from you guys and GNT beautiful posters. I still have all the concerts posters and eywflyer‘s spreadsheets in my PC.

    I am ready to take the ride with you all again here!

  18. cwm says:

    Welcome chaav!! Glad you found us here! And I’m glad that you came out of lurkdom and posted!

    And yep, we’re all ready to take another wild ride with Adam. Pack up yo thingses cuz the crazy train is ready to roll!

    By the way, how did you find us here?

  19. milwlovesadam says:

    Welcome chaav. I’m glad you found us here and came “out” to play with us instead of lurking!

    cwm, I’m taking your advice about the ordering. I’ll let you know if I have more success. I wonder how many more people are having the same problem?

  20. chaav says:

    Thanks cwm, milwlovesadam!

    Someone in adamtopia site mentioned this site.

    btw, is there a way to preview the post before posting?

  21. Oksana2000 says:

    Good afternoon!
    What is the story with W/B tickets? I think that sale to a general public starts tomorrow, and according to some posters on MJ there are still plenty of tickets left.(Per venue employee)
    I found some Queen/Adam tickets on Ebay. Dirt cheap.No more than $236 bucks for presumably 70 pounds ticket. My best wishes to all of you that will enjoy London concert and I’m crossing my fingers for some decent video. Concert DVD would be a blessing for fans like me who can’t go.
    Some threads on MJ produce comments so idiotic, that they are bordering on Comedy Central. Take a look at Kris VOL Idol performance thread. I just learned that

    Adam only tweets to Kris when Kris is trending and Adam can’t tolerate Kris getting any attention. This also a way to rile up the Glamberts, so they would run out and buy hundreds of copies of his album.

    I believe this is why RCA moved Adam’s album release so close to Kris’.

    I’m speechless.

  22. loveroftalent says:

    @Oksana…Just read that comment over at MJs…I’m speechless too…How does some of Kris fans come up with this….This is right up there with the more ridiculous comments I’ve read about Adam…

  23. Teri63 says:

    @Oksana…Just read that comment over at MJs…I’m speechless too…How does some of Kris fans come up with this….This is right up there with the more ridiculous comments I’ve read about Adam…

    Over the past several years of my “interest” (mildly put, LOL) in Adam, I’ve dumped my anti-Adam blog frustrations on my completely uninterested, but loyal, husband. His take–and I think he’s on to something–is that those people who say such idiotic things are afraid of and bitter about Adam’s success over that of their chosen Idol. It’s like bullying: By knocking someone else down, they feel their chosen artist is bigger somehow. It’s weird. I really don’t care for Kris or Daughtry and am pretty non-committal about most of the others. The day I spend a second or an ounce of my energy putting one of them down just for kicks is the day I know I’ve truly lost my grip on reality. I couldn’t give a shit what they do with their careers, and however successful or unsuccessful they are has no bearing on the success of my fav. I go by the old Bambi adage, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.”

  24. cwm says:

    haha Oksana I knew you would love that particular post at MJs. Yep, that was good one. SMH as they say.

    chaav – there is no way to preview a post, but you always have the option to edit it after posting if you see anything that needs revising. Just click on the “Click to Edit” link right under your post, on the left. Smile

  25. milwlovesadam says:

    Nicely stated Teri. I completely agree. I’d rather play in this more mature bully-free playground. I saw those comments on MJ’s earlier, and don’t understand yet again, how it is tolerated over there. It’s just so petty.

    BTW, I love how our boy never forgets “green day.” He’s such a nature lover. Tee-hee.

    Had a green drink myself yesterday and today too. Juiced celery, cucumber, pear and ginger. Nice!

  26. milwlovesadam says:

    cwm. SMH, what’s that?

  27. Oksana2000 says:

    Teri63, amen.
    Like you I don’t care how the rest of the Idols are doing, if they are successful – fine, if not – it’s not my loss.
    Unfortunately we will always have some bitter Kristards, Cooktards and other talking desperate nonsense….

  28. cwm says:

    mils – haha

    SMH = “Shake My Head”

    Used when someone says something so idiotic that words cannot do it justice and all you can is shake your head in befuddlement.

    Smile

  29. cwm says:

    mils:
    I saw those comments on MJ’s earlier, and don’t understand yet again, how it is tolerated over there. It’s just so petty.

    Well good news! Apparently it is not tolerated because MJ just deleted that whole train of conversation starting with that ridiculous post and then closed the thread. Good for her. Good grief will the season 8 fanwars ever end?

  30. Oksana2000 says:

    As it was expected, MJ already closed that thread and is now deleting selected comments. Shame. Some of them were hilarious, especially the one from Moria Polonius… Smile

  31. milwlovesadam says:

    Check this one out, 21 minutes of snippets all put together.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=yJNlfurpZDI

  32. milwlovesadam says:

    Yup, I saw that one by Moira Polonius. She really should be invited here. She seems to have boarded the Adam train a long time ago! Snark and all.

    Love the lingo, SMH!

  33. Kradamour says:

    So I was curious and went to ticketmaster and requested best available, a pair.
    Balcony right center, row G.

    All the $35 presale tickets are sold out. Also no pairs left of the $60 tickets. So for a show that is still only in presale, this seems pretty good to me!

  34. mieps says:

    Drats, missed that fun at MJ’s Frown
    SMH with you cwm!

  35. dcglam says:

    Hi there, chaav! We are so happy to meet you and hope you will join in on all of our nonstop, continual flailing for “Mr. Wonderful”…. (thanks, TexasWink)

    Thank you for the recent snippet vids, cwm and mils. The more I listen to Kickin In, the more it reminds me of Adam’s Results Night Group Performance (Top 7) from Season 8. They performed Shake Your Body Down to the Ground by Michael Jackson.
    Here it is…

  36. dcglam says:

    By the way, congratulations to all of you who have secured tickets for any of Adam’s upcoming shows. No doubt, they will be spectacular! Now Kradamour….. I’m hoping and looking forward to another epic novel recap. Hey hon, no pressure!! Wink
    I would love to have joined y’all at the Kirby Center, but I will be out of town the prior weekend. I would have a hard time justifying leaving my poor hubby alone for two weekends in a row — not to mention the Memorial Day weekend plans that we already have.

  37. Kradamour says:

    Whoops! missed the new poster! Welcome, chaav! Looking forward to seeing your posts here!
    Chic

  38. glambotgram says:

    haha Glad you qualified what SMH was, I thought it was So Much Hate.

    I thought the radio station said there were only a certain number of tickets released for the presale and the rest would be released Monday. So there should be tickets left.

    Welcome Chaav, We have a lot of fun here.

  39. nkd says:

    Mediabase request list for Never Close Our Eyes, so far.

    Welcome Chaav! We hope to see you here often!

  40. milwlovesadam says:

    glambot, that’s exactly what some of the argument was at Mj’s. People were saying, in between the lines, that tix didn’t sell out and arguing that because they weren’t sold out that Adam wasn’t selling well. And that there were tix still left for teh general sale.

    You’d think none of those people ever bought tix before!

    SMH

  41. milwlovesadam says:

    CWM: I ended up buying a whole new CD/DVD set. But haven’t figured out how to cancel my earlier order. Oh my, I just might have an extra CD. What ever will I do with it?

  42. Ron says:

    I haven’t been able to congratulate everyone who’ve bought tickets and will be going to see Adam because this PC has been in the shop. Nothing wrong with it, TG. I had the processor upgraded from 1.5GHz to 2.4GHz. It must have been a real jolt of adrenaline for this computer when they first booted it up after its minor surgery because that’s quite an increase in power! With this, my new HD webcam is fully functional … on Skype. Wink Skype anyone?! I have a tentative date later on with TLKC. Anyway, I think it’s kind of funny that most here have expressed how much they’d genuinely love to meet everyone which, of course involves a face-to-face encounter, but no one wants to Skype! Northern Spirit and nkd being the exceptions. Or, maybe no one wants to Skype with me. weep

    I’m thrilled for everyone going to see Adam but especially eywflyer! So happy you’re going to have the M&G!! It’ll be the rare time Adam will be looking up at someone. Smile If you’re able to tell him about this blog, he should be looking up to you in more ways than one! Adam might have to stand on a box for the photo. Laugh

    Maybe … maybewe I could persuade you to make May’s photo the one that will be taken with you and Adam! Good idea? I ask this of someone who doesn’t have an avatar! Laugh Well, I think it’s a good idea. Wink

  43. mieps says:

    Ron, I never react because I don’t post much, but I would love to skype and get to know you a bit better. Being fellow Canadians and all. For everyone who might sometimes give it a try, I’m allibabel. Do keep in mind that my status is always set to invisible (I don’t want the world to know I live on my computer Secret )
    We can start with adding each other Wink

  44. Ron says:

    mieps!! Wonderful! I’d love to get to know you too! We go back a long ways now!! 3 years?!

    On Skype, I’m Ron.Hayes33

    I’ll open Skype now and try to find you.

  45. Ron says:

    I found you. Wink Sent a request, mieps.

  46. HK fan says:

    welcome chaav, its nice to see new names on here.

    Mils, eww celery, my absolutely most hated thing, urgh.
    and I’m so glad you asked what SMH was, I didn’t know either. Most of these can be worked out, but hadn’t figured that one yet.

    and thank dcglam, it was great to see that top 7 dance and song again.
    The contestants since series 8 just never seem as close or have as much fun with each other as they did then, or maybe its because I’m not as invested, or maybe its because generally the contestants are so much younger now…Whatever it is, there definitely seems a spark missing since series 8.

  47. Teri63 says:

    Oh, cool, a new poster! Glad you’ve come out of lurking, chaav. Welcome!

  48. eywflyer says:

    Good evening. Glad to see a new poster join us – welcome to chaav!

    Ron, I promise that the photo of Adam and I from the M&G will at least get scanned and posted here. If it becomes a monthly photo it would probably be June though since the concert isn’t until May 25! Smile It will be interesting to see Adam’s reaction to meeting someone taller than him at a M&G, I doubt that happens too often.

    I renewed the site hosting and domain name registration for our site today, as it’s been almost a year since adamlambertlive started. The first post here was made on 5/6/2011. I mentioned a few months ago that I might ask for small donations at some future time to help contribute to the costs of maintaining the site, and received a very positive response. With the recent renewal expenses, I think it’s now an appropriate time to post a donations page:

    http://www.adamlambertlive.org/adamlambertlive-donations

    This page is accessible by registered (and logged in) site members only. There you will find a detailed listing of site expenses to date, and a donate button which will take you to Paypal’s site where you can make a secure contribution. Any small contribution that you may wish to make will be greatly appreciated!

  49. milwlovesadam says:

    Wow!! Almost a year. I think we should have us a birthday partay!!

    An idea: Let’s get as many of us as possible online on the anniversary, calling out all lurkers, and have us post fun memories, etc.

    Whaddya’all think?
