After a very busy month of July which featured 11 concerts (5 with Queen and 6 solo – including the epic Fantasy Springs event pictured above), August begins with a short period of rest for Adam. However, as he tweeted a couple of days ago, we can expect the third single from Trespassing to be announced sometime early this month. Later in the month, Adam will head to Japan and Australia for album promo and a few concerts as well. We are also anxiously waiting to learn if Adam will be a judge or have some other regular role in the upcoming season of American Idol. In the meantime, enjoy the chat!

    Katie Purvis ‏@katiemelb
    Adam and Brian go to Melbourne tomorrow (?) for a few days. Sony rep said she wasn’t at liberty to tell us what he would be doing there.

    Is This Love feels so simple and fresh and unaffected and just plain amazing! I would so love to have a copy of him doing that song without the background noise. I just went and downloaded the Marley version.

  3. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Thanks, mils! Yes, my nest will be missing one very sweet and colorful little bird after tomorrow. Big Frown But there is one very good side benefit – I get to spend 3 days in New York City!! You guys hold down the fort while I’m gone and I’ll check back in a few days!

  4. nkd says:

    Enjoy your time in NY TexasWHE! Sure wish I was going!

  5. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Me too, nkd! Hopefully, she’ll be there for four years – plenty of time for a girl’s roadtrip!

    Kyle & Jackie O show – has this been up?

  9. dcglam says:

    You know I’ll be thinking about you, Texas, and hoping that all goes smoothly with your daughter’s big move. I can feel both her excitement and your little bit of sadness during this transition time. By the way, I just returned from NYC a couple of days ago — had so much fun and am looking forward to returning!
    Safe travels, my dear….. Kiss

    I love that official take 40 video of Is this love, so chilled but sexy at the same time..
    and listenin to it on this one sounds like he says cups…..

    Is this the lady who sent most of the tweets from the take 40 lounge thing?

    Rosso & Claire show interview.

    The one posted earlier didn’t work for me. I hope this works for everyone.
    Talking nude parties! Wink

  13. nkd says:

    Is this the lady who sent most of the tweets from the take 40 lounge thing?

    She tweeted a lot during the show.
    She interviewed him today and said it would air on Friday.
    She also tweeted that his hair is silvery-grey.

  14. LadyNorth says:

    Thanks for the best quality vid of Is this love, I had it for breakfast this morning Razz I just love to watch Adam’s face when he was singing it. Awww… He was flirting with the audience big time Smile I have to go and check the lyrics because I didn’t recognize the word he said instead “cock” Grin

    HK fan I am not sure but is she the person who later interviewed Adam? Or did I get mixed with names?

    TexasWannaHoldEm, think of all those nice visits you can do to New York Smile!

    For all those who have “babies” flying out of nest, have a nice farewell Smile Oh I remember that day just about 20 years ago when I said bye to my parents and moved to a big(gest) city for my studies! I was so thrilled to get on my own! My mother told me she has always tried to think that children are “borrowed” to you for 20 years and then you have to let them go and live their own life. Which doesn’t mean you don’t care or be in contact or help if it’s needed, but let the youngster form her own kind of independence. But she was very happy to get me near again when I moved back to my roots a few years ago..

  15. nkd says:

    LadyNorth, I’m pretty sure the lyric is “cards”.

  16. LadyNorth says:

    nkd, that would make sense. Put your cards on the table… Instead of cock Laugh

    How are you doing, are you feeling better? Or still coughing your nights Frown? I really hope that bug is gone!

  17. LadyNorth says:

    I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I – I’m willing and able,
    So I throw my cards on your table!

    that’s what I found from the internet by Marley…

  18. nkd says:

    I’m getting better, but this bug is taking it’s time leaving! Thanks for asking LadyNorth.

  19. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    LOVE the NYC roadtrip idea, Texas! Count me in!

    Absolutely, Sparkle – the more the merrier!

    I can feel both her excitement and your little bit of sadness during this transition time.

    dcglam, that would be a “whole lotta sadness”, lol (but I’ll be okay!)

    Oh I remember that day just about 20 years ago when I said bye to my parents and moved to a big(gest) city for my studies! I was so thrilled to get on my own! My mother told me she has always tried to think that children are “borrowed” to you for 20 years and then you have to let them go and live their own life.

    LadyNorth, I know this is the moment I’ve been preparing her for over the past 19 years, but … I’ll miss her! Cry

    Ah well, hopefully a quick shower will make up for the lack of sleep last night – NYC, here we come! Thanks for all the sweet thoughts, friends. Blowing Kisses

  20. adamized says:

    Texas It is hard having our ‘birds’ leave the nest but it is so wonderful to see them making strong and comfy new nests for themselves as they branch out and test their wings. I’ll be thinking of you and hoping that there is more sweet than bitter over the next few days. BTW, let’s all hope for some Adam in NY and we can all have another great excuse to visit. Not too far for me at all.

    Love Adam in OZ. Funny and sweet interviews. Loving that his hair seems to be more on the chrome vs platinum right now.

    Have a great day peeps.

  21. TLKC says:

    NYC is one of my favourite cities. I used to travel there regularly on business and one of my best friends lives there. I’m in if there’s a concert there.

    Adam seems to be discussing the Idol possibility in all interviews now. I have a theory that Idol wants to lock up it’s second judge before it decides on judges 3 and 4, which is why Adam is hanging at the moment. A bit of hopefulness on my part but, hey!

  22. TLKC says:

    Texas Your daughter is a very lucky girl, getting to spend 4 years in NYC. You will miss her but you must be so happy to see her expanding her horizons and making the most of her opportunities in one of the world’s truly amazing cities.

    And you can visit her at end of term and have a few days together.

  23. Ron says:

    Adam Lambert is one rung away from his highest peak position and five Idols move backward but there’s a silver lining…

    This is good. Wink

    JUST DANCE: With Kelly Clarkson’s “Dark Side” plunging 1-8 on the Hot Dance Club Play chart (a typical fall from pole position on this tally), the highest-ranking Idol on this list is now Adam Lambert, whose “Never Close Our Eyes” improves 7-6, achieving a new peak position. This track from Lambert’s Trespassing album is now just one slot away from tying the season eight runner-up’s highest ranking on the Club Play chart. The single “For Your Entertainment,” the title track from Lambert’s debut album for 19/RCA, peaked at No. 5 the week of March 20, 2010.

  24. milwlovesadam says:

    He’s in Melbourne? Doing something that can’t be talked about?

    Oh my. Let the speculation begin.

  25. riskylady says:

    Haha, these Australians are hilarious and outrageous:

    Adam plays “man butt, lady butt” (I know, I know, we’d all love to play this game):

  26. riskylady says:

    OMG, Adam is getting so much GREAT buzz from the Marley song, like this from the UK:

    Takes a few minutes to load, but read the caption under the foto below the video.
    I’ve seen articles from Brazil, Mexico and a few other countries, all positive.

  27. cwm says:

    Hi all — such fun stuff coming out of Oz, isn’t it? I posted several new goodies from the Take40 Live Lounge show, on that thread, so it’s worth checking that thread out again!

    I join those of you enchanted by Adam’s take on Is This Love. I adore it. Hearing and watching him sing that makes me ridiculously happy inside.

    Sooo…. there are some mighty fine photos and other goodies popping up that I haven’t seen posted here yet. Ready?

    Adam on Sunrise within the hour. Hoping one of these links works for a livestream. 7:30 am Sydney, 5:30 pm ET

    http://au.tv.yahoo.com/sunrise/video/-/watch/23310266/sunrise-live/

    http://au.tv.yahoo.com/sunrise/live-stream/article/-/10224163/

    ETA I’m getting the first link to work. Adam should be on soon! 5:32 pm

  34. luval says:

    I’m on the second link and getting “news” so maybe this is the one?

  35. luval says:

    nkd, are there a couple of “cows” on the panel?

    eta. I am on the second link which is the only one that works for me. Just said Adam will be on after the commercial!

  36. Ron says:

    Adam on after the break … second link. 5:40pm

  37. Ron says:

    He’ll be back later to sing a second song.

    Sang “What Do You Want From Me”.

  38. luval says:

    BEAUTIFUL version of WWFM! He’ll be back in the next hour LOL!

  39. luval says:

    haha Ron…same wave length as usual.

    I’m going to take a little run.Will be back.

  40. Ron says:

    Asked about judge on “American Idol”.

    “I have no idea. DO YOU?! Let me know if you hear anything”.

  41. Ron says:

    Hi luval!!

    Hi nkd!!

  42. luval says:

    whew…hot out there! A couple of pages ago I mentioned about the New York State Fair which has a couple of “dark nights” where they do not have an act booked. Since the fair started today the front page story was all about this. Here is what the director said:

    “Even at this late date, I would book an act if I were convinced it would sell out the 16,000 seat grandstand in one day. No door is ever shut. If a spectacular act is presented to us, we would strongly consider it.”

    Of course he is in Australia now and 16,000 is a lot of seats to fill. Oh well maybe next year.

  43. Ron says:

    As most of you know, the mail is delivered here in Canada by moose. There are two of them that take care of the entire country. “Lightning” and “Poor Old Bessie”. The Kiev DVD that jlurksacto mailed to me 8 days ago is obviously with Bessie because I’ve yet to receive it. I figure, having left Vancouver over a week ago, Bessie must be somewhere in Saskatchewan by now. She just has to lope through Manitoba and she’ll be in Ontario. It’ll probably be here shortly after Labor Day. Rolls Eyes

  44. luval says:

    LOL, Ron!

  45. nkd says:

    Haha Ron! And hi!

    Who was it that said Fault Magazine must have used turtles for delivery and it’s on the bottom of the Atlantic somewhere?!! jlurksacto?

    WWFM was trending, but it was mostly wtf WWFM! Laugh

  46. nkd says:

    Did Adam do a short interview? My daughter called as he was singing and I missed everything else.

  47. Ron says:

    nkd says:
    08/23/2012 at 6:31 pm

    WWFM was trending, but it was mostly wtf WWFM!

    Was WWFM JUST released in Australia? Big Smile

  48. nkd says:

    Was WWFM JUST released in Australia?

    Noooo!

  49. Ron says:

    Short interview, nkd.

    Advice for singing competition contestants, because X Factor Australia is about to begin, and the question about Idol judge.

    It looked awkward because Adam was seated on a stool in between both interviewers but they were standing and he had to keep looking up at both of them. He was a Munchkin. Grin
