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!

    By the way, I grabbed the hot cover photo from this recent Just Jared article…

    Welcome to more new de-lurkers!!

    That early morning interview was wonderful. I can just imagine him lying in bed, propped up on one elbow, talking while Sauli just lays there snoozing or listening out of one ear…

    And.

    Video shooting in a couple of days. No date yet for Idol.

    Insider should be tonight. Kimmel tonight for Vintage Trouble ( they are so good ), and Thursday for BB.

    My DVR will be so very happy.

    Riskylady, you have fanmail again.

    So, if I order the Instinct magazine, will it come with a storage locker? My Adamphernilia collection is getting to be rather, um, well, plentiful.

    And, once again, do the people who produce that mag. even know of the onslaught that comes with Adam on the cover? Or, can they even imagine the number of straight women who will be suddenly on their mailing list?

    concert will showcase 16 Queen’s biggest hits, including We Are The Champions, Bohemian Rhapsody, Show Must Go One that I Want It All.

    My ears are so ready! I sure wish I could make it to one of those shows. Those of you getting to go, just know I’ll be here all jelly, but thrilled for you!
    Adam singing a full Bo Rap is beyond dreamy!

    Did y’all see the new Fault pics on AQD? Gorgeous!

    nkd, wowza!!

    Love that black lace peek-a-boo number!

  8. nkd says:

    I know mils, and the peek-a-boo blazer on top!

    ETA This is when I relate so well to the lyrics “Don’t think out loud cause once it’s out your mouth can’t take it back”!

    Oh well!

    Wow! The one of Adam in the pinstripe suit is pure perfection. It fit him like a glove and the blue complimented him coloring. That photo is my absolute favorite.

  10. glambotgram says:

    OMG the black peek a boo is divine!!. The pinstripe, he looks so skinny.

    I can’t find a place to listen to the radio interview. When I click on the link I get a page with Adam’s picture on it but no link for interview. I even tried going to podcasts but can’t find anything but a picture. What am I doing wrong?

    Welcome all lurkers coming out of lurkdom.

  11. riskylady says:

    Adam is a flirt and a ham! Isn’t the angle of his face in this pic similar to the Instinct cover? He’s teasing us, he knew it would be out the very next day!
    http://mypict.me/index.php?id=338583386

    Glambotgram, are you using the link I posted at the bottom of the previous page? It should start playing automatically as soon as you click on it (first comes and advertisement), with no pic of Adam. If not, don’t know – could be your browser? Or you need to reboot?

  12. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    OMG, he is so d*mn gorgeous!! If he was tone deaf and had absolutely nothing else going for him besides his breathtaking good looks, he could be a model!

    So excited about the latest Queen rumor! Starting to worry if all these Queen appearances will help or hinder his solo career. My gut tells me that it will help him – what do you guys think?

  13. fwachdr says:

    Just ordered “Instinct”…easy and cheap for such gorgeous pictures! I live in the Bible Belt with not much chance of buying it locally. The nice young man who took my order did not make any cracks about my being a woman, altho I would have laughed if he had!!!

  14. luval says:

    Just called my local Barnes & Noble and they do carry Instinct but only have the April issue. Will have to check back.

  15. dcglam says:

    Starting to worry if all these Queen appearances will help or hinder his solo career. My gut tells me that it will help him – what do you guys think?

    I’m hoping that they will be somewhat connected, Texas. Through the Queen gigs, Adam will be receiving exposure to new audiences that include not only his ever faithful Glamberts, but also Queen fans. I look at it as another platform for him, kind of like the way he speaks about American Idol. Even though there will always be some peeps who feel that Adam is not the one to “fill in” for Freddie, there is no denying Adam’s vocal ability and showmanship on stage. I’m also hoping that all of this translates well to higher sales for Trespassing. The bonus part of all of this, IMO, is that he will be earning some good $ that can be used towards his own tour, which I imagine he will begin working on later in the summer.

  16. Northern Spirit says:

    I think these Queen concerts will be great exposure for Adam. I’m not concerned about it at all. When will he ever have an opportunity like this again…to sing with Queen! Wow. A dream come true.

    Just ordered my Instinct magazine, too, over the phone. LOL, they’re probably wondering why all these women are ordering it. Can’t wait to get my Fault magazine, too.

  17. luval says:

    To all who ordered Instinct over the phone…did you feel comfortable giving your credit card?

    I checked at Books a Million and they said they would have it this weekend, if they don’t I will order one online.

    Listening to snippets can’t help myself.

    riskylady Thanks I tried IE and it played it didn’t work on Firefox

    Nice online preview of Fault magazine for those of us who did not order the print version (or for those who can’t wait to get theirs!) with a great ZOOM feature!

    Wow, has this already been posted? Scan of the new Rolling Stone review of NCOE.

    https://twitter.com/#!/lexiglam/status/194957115109023745/photo/1

  22. turquoisewaters says:

    firstimerob: welcome!

    you are all so clever and funny

    The others are. I’m just faking it and they are nice enough not to point it out. Grin No worries.

  23. Ceddies says:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=on3mC6lWX_8&feature=share

    Kickin’ In [Backing Vocals Demo]. This came from FB, so I hope the link works here. Sorry if already posted.

  24. turquoisewaters says:

    Re: new Rolling Stone review of NCOE. What does it say? Adam Lambert’s Bl??tury Disco.(blustery??)
    Not sure how I feel about the three stars. I would have to agree somewhat about the “calculated”. But hey, Rolling Stone, why do you think they picked the “calculated” song for a single? It’s because they are so darn scared to offend someone in radio or the media with a more daring single. The rollout of this album seems quite a chess game, and I am not too sure the first two moves were good ones.

  25. fwachdr says:

    Luval…let’s see…credit card fraud vs stunning AFL pics…life is a gamble!

    Teri63…do you know which issue of Rolling Stone that review is in?

  26. Teri63 says:

    Teri63…do you know which issue of Rolling Stone that review is in?

    Not sure – I just saw the tweeter said it was in their new issue, and another tweet said it was the one with Obama on the cover. I’ll head back to Twitter and update this if I find the exact issue noted.

    ETA: According to a tweet, it’s the May 10 issue.

  27. riskylady says:

    I’m lovin’ the comments under that backing vocals demo. Adam must have spent HOURS in the studio doing harmonies on all of these songs – they ALL have them, and it’s ALL him. The sound is so RICH, as one commenter says. He doesn’t use his falsetto much when performing, but it is STELLAR!

    Anyway, thought some of you might enjoy this. BBC did a documentary about Prince some time ago, and someone just uploaded it to YouTube. It’s about 1 hour, but some parallels with Adam (artistically) are very evident. Watch before BBC takes it down LOL!
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvPPg6pLif0&feature=youtu.be
    ETA: Some footage of his first appearance on American Bandstand, so shy he couln’t articulate, and some very vintage acapella vocals (amazing!)

  28. Northern Spirit says:

    luval, funny, I didn’t think twice about it. I give my card number over the phone a lot but only to people I call myself. This guy seemed genuine, nice, and the phone number is one that’s posted on their site. I guess I’m just overly trusting. I think it’s fine. If you wait long enough, you can order a back issue online, if that makes you feel more comfortable.

  29. ultimathule says:

    The last sentence in that RS review is a winner. Actually agree with the article pretty much. NOW – onto the album – that’s gonna be interesting.

  30. ultimathule says:

    I gave him my credit card number – have done that before for Adam – so far, so good.

  31. aely says:

    Texas . Love Denton. Went to college at unt. Thanks for the greeting along with all the others that are so welcoming.

  32. Kradamour says:

    luval, the instinct magazine is already available on the website online store:
    http://instinctmagazine.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=54&page=shop.browse&category_id=2

    It is also available from apple as an app for the iPad for $2.99
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/instinct-mag/id386169246?mt=8

    I totally need Adam on my iPad…
    In Love In Love In Love

  33. Kradamour says:

    I had an Adam moment today – a real one! “right here in River City!” – and I almost missed it!

    Coming home from school – very tired – got on the highway and turned on the radio, 94.9 The Point “music of today” whatever that means…a pretty good station, not just “rap and crap” as riskylady says…they played WWFM one or two times and NCOE is listed for them but I have never heard it. Anyway, I was half listening and thinking that what was playing sounded familiar but couldn’t quite place it…and then realized all of a sudden that it was BTIKM! I felt like such an idiot! But it is like when you see someone out of their usual context – your boss at the grocery store, for example – and you don’t immediately recognize him/her.
    Adam on the radio just didn’t compute! and of course I have heard BTIKM live at the promo and the acoustic version on lots of vids but have only heard the studio version once (I downloaded it but I rarely listen to music at home).

    Okay long post but IT WAS REALLY EXCITING!!!!!
    Grin Grin Grin

  34. nkd says:

    glambotgram, the interview is on http://devenlane.blogspot.com/ on the front page. Try there!

  35. Kradamour says:

    Ooooh the Dorian mag with Adam on the cover is also available in an iPad app:
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/dorian/id451791228?mt=8

  36. Ceddies says:

    FIANNLY, kradamour. High Five! High Five! High Five!

  37. ultimathule says:

    MJ cut off the Album Sales thread. Don’t know why.

  38. Kradamour says:

    Okay now I’m all giddy about the radio lol!
    Went to the website and requested NCOE.
    Then searched for NCOE on the site and it gave me a bunch of Adam info, including a list of his “top tracks”.
    Ready? One of them is “Want”. Another is “Is Anybody Listening” from the Ten Commandments. Also “Time for Miracles”. And “No Boundaries” and “Mad World”.

    Peeps, this explains a lot, gotta say. If even the stations that are playing Adam’s new music are presenting this stuff as his “top tracks” for the casual listener to find…

  39. Teri63 says:

    Kradamour, that’s awesome that you had that great BTIKM radio moment! Hopefully, you’ll be hearing NCOE soon, too!

  40. glambotgram says:

    AL says

    Thanks AL I hope my real magazine comes with that great ZOOM feature.

    Thanks nkd I did get the other link to work with Internet Explorer

  41. glambotgram says:

    Ceddies that backing vocal is awesome. That Voice just continues to amaze.

  42. riskylady says:

    Reading the last few posts on the HDD thread at MJs, looks like she took a preemptive strike before the argument about the May 29th adds date for NCOE got virulent. But that didn’t prevent some decent theories from being put forth, i.e. THIS: Album drops May 15th, possible AI appearance just before or just after, then SIX radio concerts from May 18th through May 26th.
    In the meantime, the song is getting play from some stations, and hopefully with the requesting we’re doing more will come on board. So, by the 29th, with album buzz and reviews, CHR will hopefully pick up the song.
    Pretty sure we can expect Rolling Stone and MTV to give good love – that early article about Adam storming the dance floor after hearing some tracks was positive.
    He’s getting soooo much PR – so many magazines, so many interviews, and there’s more coming both here and abroad. I think we have to have some faith and patience. He certainly doesn’t seem to be brooding about anything.
    So, I got brave and requested the song on Facebook and Twitter and the website of a couple of stations. We’ll see.

  43. ultimathule says:

    But – don’t like the word “strident.” Does J.R. actually mean that or is he just oblivious as to what the word means.

    “Magnificence” almost makes up for it.

  44. josephine says:

    Also had a small Adam moment today–after drooooling over the new Instinct pictures which I could not get off my mind, I proceeded to give my small yorkie his annual Spring haircut still thinking of those pictures!!! After finishing, my husband looked a little puzzled as I admired my workmanship–he remarked that the part was too much to one side, his hair stood up and there was a piece hanging over his eye….Oh well, I said. I may rename my dog ADAM!!!! this lurker is grounded—-

  45. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Video shooting in a couple of days. No date yet for Idol.

    Did Adam say this in the interview this morning? I haven’t had time to listen to it. Excited for the new video! Laugh Getting worried about Idol Suspense

  46. ultimathule says:

    Appreciate your comments, riskylady – “faith and patience” – need more of that – lol. And you’re right – he certainly doesn’t seem to be brooding – with his current schedule he probably wouldn’t have time for that anyhow.

  47. riskylady says:

    Tks, and agree about RS, ultima – I almost think he meant to imply “insistent, demanding” and not “harsh, discordant” or he wouldn’t have used “magnificent” and the rest.
    Yes, Adam and Adam’s vocals are magnificent – nice to hear someone in the media say it!

    Yes too, Adam said in the radio interview he would be shooting the NCOE video in the next couple of weeks! YAY!

  48. ultimathule says:

    Pretty sure in the interview he said he was going to be on.

  49. nkd says:

    A better pic of the RS review.
    https://p.twimg.com/ArStCM0CIAA_1t2.jpg

    Texas, I think he said video shoot in the next couple of weeks and not sure on the Idol date yet. Yes that was in the interview from this morning.

  50. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Oh, I almost forgot – I had an Adam moment today too! Was driving along and guess what came on the radio station??? You guessed it, NCOE!! It sounded a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Maybe it’s just me, but I especially love hearing Adam on the radio. Maybe it’s because I’m happy that so many other people are listening to that station and hearing him too – I always turn it up so loud, hope I don’t blow the speakers out in my car!
