Adam calendar photoshoot – Lee Cherry of Cherry Soda Studios

After what seems like an eternity after announcing the Queen + Adam Lambert tour in March, it will finally happen. Adam is in London preparing before the show kicks off in Chicago on June 19th! Plenty of ALLers will be attending the shows and as usual, we will be creating souvenir threads. Cannot wait to see the videos, photos and recaps!

Enjoy the chat!

Hangout with Adam – AT&T Live Proud LIVE – 06/14/2014 – starts at the 4:50 mark

    ultimathule, what was Bowie thinking? lol. But I guess Cher’s show was the one to guest on at that time.

    Hi everyone, just a couple of small anecdotes: I went to make an optician’s appointment and said I needed new glasses in order to properly see Queen in Melbourne.( I bring it up at any opportunity!) The lady at the desk said “Oh and they have Adam Lambert with them…He’s amazing!
    Then today our book club visited a library in a nearby small town. I asked for a Freddie biography. The librarian said “They’re doing some shows in Australia soon with that incredible Adam Lambert!” When I told her I had tickets to two shows she was very envious.
    I have gotten so used to people (esp. in my age group)saying “Who?” that it makes me feel really good when Adam’s name is recognised.

  4. ultimathule says:

    That’s just so great, Kiwi – love those little recognitions – boy’s fame is spreading because of Queen – hoping it bodes well for #3.

    Hi everyone —

    Finally starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel (it’s been a loooooong tunnel!) at work, so I’m starting to brush up on my Queen music and am getting excited about our adventures to come!

    I think this guy is getting excited, too. LOL

    Makes me smile and crack up everytime I see it.

    And how does he record himself in the shower like that? Laugh

    I hadn’t heard Stone Cold Crazy before so I looked it up. This is what he’s singing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mmt2mgmrSUw

    It’s a rockin’ song! Music Note

  9. cwm says:

    AL – I’m late to the party, but I just wanted to say Congratulations on your exciting news that the NYT accepted your crossword puzzle! That is so awesome! I’m very happy for you – you totally deserve it. Big Smile

  10. Ron says:

    I should just leave this one alone, because I know that there’s a big difference, but still …

    I wonder how many outraged phone calls CBS received last night during Neil Patrick Harris’s performance on the Tony’s when he thrust his crotch in Sting’s face and kissed a man – his husband, David Burtka. Both moments, in full close-up.

    Thinking

  11. HK fan says:

    I haven’t seen the video Ron, its disappeared from MJ;s, but I read the description….but I’m betting he doesn’t get any backlash….curious, why do you think there is a big difference between the 2 things?

    EXCLUSIVE!!new single 2014 Adam Lambert “are you done with me” lyrics: <3 http://youtu.be/1ZkcFvLYYX8 via @YouTube

    Don't think it sounds like him…but there are a couple of times when I think maybe it does.

  13. luval says:

    I don’t think it sounds like him. Song’s ok. Very generic to me.

  14. Ron says:

    Hi HK fan! Hug Right

    The big difference for me is that Adam on the AMA’s wasn’t playing a character, he was being himself. He was Adam – and men don’t do those kinds of things!

    Whereas, Neil Patrick Harris was playing a character, in a stage role, which would make his actions more acceptable.

    I hope that makes sense. IDK

  15. riskylady says:

    Again, that is NOT Adam, it is this person, slowed down a little to lower the key and try to make it sound like a guy. They tried this with a couple of UhHuhHer songs a while ago too.

  16. ultimathule says:

    Re: NPH – big sea change on attitudes since five years ago and NPH is an established star – also agree with Ron about Adam’s not playing a character. It was shocking at the time. In the U.S. Adam’s performance might still be on live TV. Who knows – some people are more equal than others.

  17. ultimathule says:
  18. riskylady says:

    Also, NPH (at least in the video I saw) didn’t actually put anyone’s face up against his crotch, and the kiss to his own husband was little more than a quick buss. Plus, he’s playing a transgendered person doing a stage act, so a little scandalous behavior is to be expected.
    No envelope-pushing cred there IMHO.
    I think Adam can still lay claim to that first, a REAL SPECTACULAR PASSIONATE live kiss, and a real unequivocal face-in-crotch by a real gay man on live TV, undisguised and out there. Together with being the first openly-gay singer signed to a major label, and having the first #1 album on the BB 200.
    I remember being totally shocked (first time seeing him at all) and totally intrigued. Went on an all-night research binge, the first of many. I think it was love-at-first-shock-with-sound-effects of his voice. (Spare me the critique of the performance. If you never heard him before, it was enough to amaze! Plus, gorgeous man!) Smitten.

  31. luval says:

    Question about the iheart show. Is it only on radio or is there an actual livestream where we see it?

  32. kinkykiedis says:

    Luval I’d say it’s both, it will be on radio stations but if you see here it’s also on the Yahoo screen to watch so let’s hope its as it seems. Video would be awesome if I can get it to work from outside the US.

  33. kinkykiedis says:

    Sorry had trouble with link. Hope this one is right.

  34. kinkykiedis says:

    Ok its not working, how do I put a link in here please?

  35. kinkykiedis says:
  36. kinkykiedis says:

    Lol ok done it. I thought I had to use the link icon Laugh

  37. luval says:

    Thanks, kinky. It just seemed confusing to me. Broadcast live on-air as a 60 minute special on Clear Channel Classic Rock stations (radio??) and streamed online across Classic Rock, Classic Hits and oldies station websites as well as iheartradio.com. Just all sounds like radio to me. Which is fine, I guess.

  38. kinkykiedis says:

    Yeah I was confused by that, I’m so praying its video and plus there’s the Q&A so could be radio for us and the screen is just for those who have luckily won? Makes sense I suppose.

  39. funbunn40 says:

    Congrats to all that are getting I Heart tickets! So excited for you all! Big Smile Hope Glambert “Ninjas” will be able to get some videos, but My eyes would be glued to Adam & the camera would be all over the place!

  40. funbunn40 says:

    Regarding the song “Are You Done With Me Yet? seemed to me like a demo sung by someone other than Adam. Not sure where the source came from, but maybe it was a “fishing expedition” or marketing tool by a record co.to see if the song would get a positive response before Adan would record and release it. Adam very well may have written or co-wrote it. Hopefully more info to follow. I likes the song and think with Adam’s treatment it could get the attention that WWFM did.

    funbunn40, I posted above, the song is this by a girl called DELAIN.
    http://youtu.be/gpkSKO9iHn4
    People lower the keys of songs to make them sound like a guy. If yOu listen to both you can clearly hear the exact same pronunciation, instrumentals, etc. I really don’t understand why people try to pass off random things as Adam. They did this with two UhHuhHer songs a couple of years ago.

  47. funbunn40 says:

    I agree that NPH was playing a character & Adam on the AMAs was himself and literally portraying the song lyrics & then some! I had no problem with NPH kissing David. They’re a loving couple, just as straight ones are & it was a special moment. I don’t think Sting was too thrilled with NPH’s up & personal attention, but think NPH meant it in good natured fun as the character. Not to my personal taste, but “that’s showbiz.” I was afraid that Adam didn’t use the best judgement at the AMA’s 5 yrs ago at the time and didn’t think it was his best performance, but he owned it and I think realized that live prime tv isn’t West Hollywood. On the positive side, discussion of the double standards between gay men and straight women displaying explicit physical contact in the entertainment media came into the spotlight which needed to be adressed. There still is unfair bias and Adam bravely confronted it. He’s come a long way and has done a great job navigating the ins and outs of fame.

  48. HK fan says:

    DJ DigiMark ‏@DJDigiMark 5h
    Can’t wait to see @adamlambert and @QueenWillRock in #Chicago next week!! Who else is going??

    He’s the one who’s done several remixes of Adams songs isn’t he?

  49. funbunn40 says:

    Riskylady, Thanks so much for clearing that up for me! It’s a shame that some people have to deliberately give out false info. Is Delain the same woman that sang Ring of Fire in the Middle Eastern version that Adam emmulated? I think she was on “Who Wants to be a Rock Star?” a few years ago.

  50. kinkykiedis says:

    No funbunn40 that was Dilana and she was runner up on a show called Rockstar Supernova hosted by Tommy Lee from Motley Crue. Lukas Rossi won the show to be Tommys singer in a band he had aside from his real band at the time.
