After what has seemed like an eternally long wait since Adam’s Glam Nation/FYE era ended, we have finally arrived at May 2012 – the month that Adam’s new album “Trespassing” will be released! The album will drop in the U.S. & Canada on May 15th. Lucky fans in New Zealand & Japan will get the album a few days earlier on May 11th, Australia & Germany a few days later on May 18th, while some other European countries (U.K., Ireland, France) will have to wait until July. In addition to the album release, we can look forward to three concerts with Adam headlining this month, the KRZ Summer Bash in Wilkes-Barre PA on May 25th, at Six Flags New England on May 26th, and the Freshtival in National Harbor MD on May 27th. We will also see Adam perform on American Idol May 17th, will have the official push of “Never Close Our Eyes” to pop radio beginning on May 29, and may see the music video for NCOE later this month as well!

Our featured photo for this month’s chat comes from Adam’s mini-concert of April 26th on the Jimmy Kimmel show.

It’s going to be an exciting month as we begin the Trespassing era, enjoy the chat!

    I’ve loved Kickin In from the moment I heard it – in these concerts it’s just fantastic. Want more and more insinuating dance moves to this incredible beat – just nutso.

    And, yes – he looks the best he’s ever looked in those M&G pics – absolutely amazing – whatta face.

    If anyone needs a digital version of Trespassing it is $6.99 for standard and $8.99 for deluxe on AO. Buy and download now for first week sales. 320 kbps, higher than itunes and amazon.

    I’m female, fat, and over 50–and I’d take my chance if I could. (well, maybe in my fantasy where I’m much younger, and much lighter…) LOL.

    I’m female, pleasantly plump, about to turn 50 and in my dreams, I would certainly go for it. I’m sure there are more than a few women who wish they had a chance with him.

    Hi. I’m back from my regular Sunday night date with Don Draper and Nurse Jackie.

    Hmmm. So you guys had that cray gal all picked out? Good job.

    Need better vid of what she did.

    She just did what virtually all of us wish we could do. Gay? Shmay? Who cares? He is the object of our affection/dreams.

    Geebus. Those M&G pictures are just beyond.

    And, the “retail” did not refer to meeting fans. It referred to “selling” himself at radio station visits. He clarified that on twitter.

  7. milwlovesadam says:

    BTW.

    Those pants are fabulous.

    Simply fabulous.

    I have never been a fan of that vest. Sorry.

    Those pants, now, are another story. I’d love to see them with a black sleeveless v-neck t-shirt. Yummy!

  8. milwlovesadam says:

    A Trespassing job list?

    Oh-oh my.

    Later……

    I read on another blog that lots of yellow and black was showing up at the shows as well as yellow glo sticks. I got a tweet about yellow and black shoes at Amazon.com. I can’t bring the picture over but they are Fahrenheit women’s Laurissa wedge Sandals. I’m sure these will be seen a few shows soon, not on me, but someone younger and crazy enough to wear heels that high. Still haven’t decided whether to try for tickets to the Des Moines show. It’s a long way off yet.

  10. glambotgram says:

    And, the “retail” did not refer to meeting fans. It referred to “selling” himself at radio station visits. He clarified that on twitter.

    I think the retail, selling himself that was referred to here is the last 2 shows he has asked if people have bought the album yet, and even went so far today to say.
    “Even if you think you don’t like me, go check it out, I guarantee it will make you shake you ass.” (paraphrasing here) ETA that’s not what he said except for the first part.
    That made me feel bad for him.

    Nothing wrong with him pimping his CD, it is just different for him.

  11. Kradamour says:

    Re pimping his CD…peeps, that is what these shows are all about. It’s a publicity “tour”, and he is only doing it because there is…um…a CD to sell. Many of the peeps in the audience who are not already fans likely don’t even know that there is a CD out there, or what its name is.
    So I am cool with some marketing. That’s what he is there for.
    Wink

  12. ultimathule says:

    Agree, Krad – if this CD is successful, there may be another one.

  13. Kradamour says:

    From your lips to God’s ear, ultimathule!

    G’nite, peeps – sweet Adam dreams!

    I love those pants!
    Put them on the pants list, whoever is keeping that one!

  15. HK fan says:

    I’m not sure if I’ve totally got the gist of what happened with this fan. I tried watching that bit of the ustream vid, heard him asking her to come up on the stage with some rather choice words, must admit I winced a little bit given how many kids were in the meet and greet photos… couldn’t really see what she did or Adam did after that, and couldn’t stand to watch any more of the poor picture or sound quality.
    Hope some better videos turn up soon.

  16. nkd says:

    I gotta go to sleep.

    HK fan, the incident with the fan was before Cuckoo. I can’t wait to see it! The stream wasn’t very clear.

  18. nkd says:

    The vids and a couple of pics to improve your Monday at the homeplanet!

    Hi y’all. Went to Target music section today looking for Trespassing. At first I couldn’t find it at all, even under new music. Then I noticed there were so many Glee cds all over the top shelf of New Music, so I started looking behind those cds and sure enough, some homophobic #$@%^!& had covered all of Adam’s cds with Glee cds. There were 5 regular and 5 deluxe, so I uncovered them and put most of the Glee cds on the shelf below and gave the Trespassing cds a large, very visible area on the top shelf. I’ll have to go back in a couple days to check that my nice work wasn’t undone. Good deed for the day.
    eta: Of course I bought one of the deluxe ones….my..uh…5th one and gave it away as a gift at a family lunch I went to afterwards.

  20. glambotgram says:

    Good Morning

    This video is pretty good and has a good look at the crazy bitch. LOL
    at 21:00
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GDg-w2lqR0

    Looks like Adam picked her up when she was hugging him, she didn’t just jump on him.
    This also includes his sound checking at the beginning, He was not going to have another sound issue like the day before.

  21. rs says:

    Go Cher!

  22. rs says:

    I made a gravatar. Now how do I get it here?

    I think that the problem is that I just registered for wordpress for a different purpose (to see a cousin’s wedding album) and I used a different email address. I had written an email last week to eywflyer asking if in order to sign up here we had already signed into WordPress, because when I tried to sign in, it said that there was no such user by my name or email address. I didn’t get an answer, but I know how busy you are.
    So now I have this beautiful photo I took of the Love sculpture and I don’t know how to get it here. What do I do? Help, Please….

  23. rs says:

    I posted on the concert thread Juneau’s recap of the Kiss concert that she attended. I know, I don’t like her either, especially since she is still supporting Monte, but she talks about the sound issues. It is no wonder that Adam was so careful to check the sound before last night’s performance began.

  24. TLKC says:

    The livestream last night was terrible though I much appreciate what that girl did for us. Looking forward to proper videos. Very happy that the TALC group was there. I haven’t seen Xena’s blog yet but she always contributes something interestingly idiosyncratic to the mix of Adam reviews.

    Today’s a holiday in Canada, I am at my computer clicking obsessively on the HDD sales button waiting for building chart results. Supposed to start at 7:30 a.m.

  25. glambotgram says:

    They are selling tickets to the Freshtival for a limited time GA for $30. Of course they do this after it is too late to cancel the hotel room and just get tickets.

    more events announces

    We just announced that @adamlambert will be joining @train at our #summerblastoff, Friday morning at @JenksBoardwalk

    This is too close to our concert for comfort. Too many events=tired Adam.

    Royal Albert Hall ‏@RoyalAlbertHall

    Tickets for @RaysofSunshine concert with newly-announced @adamlambert are selling fast. Only Circle tickets remaining: http://bit.ly/HftIev

    Charity event, looks something like Make a Wish

    Beautiful http://twitpic.com/9nmmcn

    Freckles http://twitpic.com/9njkxb

  26. TLKC says:

    I am in agreement on that. Last night at the Billboard awards Taylor Swift mentioned radio concerts as if they were the worst sort of thing. I just want to see Adam happy and fresh and I want him to feel good.

    BTW – HDD is 7:30 a.m. Pacific time. I’ve been obsessively refreshing for nothing. Once 54% sales are in, I’m going to apply an algrorithm to Adele’s sales to project her total. Gonna be conservative with Adam’s projection and see how safe he is. Hope it’s obvious from the word go that he’s safe Smile In Love .

  27. luval says:

    I just googled that Jenksboardwalk event. It’s at the Jersey Shore Friday 5/25 between 6am and 10am. Adam will be taking a disco nap after that.

    It’s in Point Pleasant NJ which is 3hrs from Wilkes Barre.

  28. glambotgram says:

    rs I am pretty sure you have to have the same email address for the gravatar and wordpress. You could change one of them. there is some help info here:

    http://en.support.wordpress.com/avatars/gravatars/

  29. Ron says:

    Good Morning! Sun

    Nice short write up of NJ with a photo gallery:

    http://socialitelife.com/adam-lambert-gets-his-glam-rock-on-at-ktuphoria-in-new-jersey-photos-05-2012

    And believe you me, Adam looks flawless!

    Smile

  30. rs says:

    OK, I added this email to the gravatar link. Now what do I do?

  31. Ron says:

    Hi rs

    You must use the same email and username that you first registered with on WordPress when you register again on another WordPress website, i.e. MJ’s, AdamLambertLive, etc.

  32. Ron says:

    Try here, rs

    http://en.gravatar.com/

    Sign in with your username and password

  33. TLKC says:

    55 minutes to go…..

  34. glambotgram says:

    Ron you are so right, I forgot about the username having to be the same. I shouldn’t answer questions in the morning. Smile

  35. glambotgram says:

    TLKC you are making me nervous, and I don’t usually get nervous about Adam. Hot yes, Blush but not nervous.

  36. rs says:

    ron, It is totally screwed up. When I tried to get a gravatar last week, using this link, it didn’t recognize me and said that I didn’t have a WordPress account, so I left it. Today, in order to get my cousin’s wedding album I had to create a wordPress acount, but I used my regular email account, not the one reserved for my Adam Lambert stuff. It also has a different user name. Now I am signed in using that name, even when I go from this site. I added this email, too. I didn’t see a place to sign out of WordPress. The question is, what do I do after I have already made my gravatar? How do I get it here? Do I have to sign out and then sign in again? I am afraid that I won’t be able to get back in using rs.

  37. rs says:

    If I change my WordPress username to rs will it work. I see a place for changing the username

  38. HK fan says:

    om, I got all excited there for a moment over that Royal Albert Hall thing, (hadn’t heard anything about that one before now), was just about to order tickets when I realised I’d misread it thinking it was 7th July, when I’m in the UK, but its 7th June Frown Shame, my kids would have loved to see Diversity and Spellbound.

    Keep forgetting to say, I just love Adam in that Yellow t-
    shirt…

  39. TLKC says:

    Sorry. I won’t do a count-down until 5 minutes before.

  40. TLKC says:

    I watched the whole of Jesha’s video – he was terrific and that fan was hilarious. She could dance, too. She was very cute in her behaviour and she asked him what he was going to play. Great lead-in.

    I hope Adam picks out a girl like that in all the radio concerts going forward. It was funny and the crowd enjoyed it. Smile

  41. rs says:

    Can’t change my username. Can somebody have 2 WordPress accounts?

  42. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Sorry. I won’t do a count-down until 5 minutes before.

    It’s an exciting morning – your countdown just adds to it! Grin Fingers crossed for #1! Fingers Crossed

  43. Ron says:

    Today, in order to get my cousin’s wedding album I had to create a wordPress acount, but I used my regular email account, not the one reserved for my Adam Lambert stuff. It also has a different user name.

    I hope I’m wrong but I’m afraid that’s the problem, rs. If the username and email address are different, it’s not going to work.

    Wish I could sit down at your PC and help you work through this! You see, I did the same thing … I used the same email address BUT I registered here using a different username from the one I used when I first signed-up on MJ’s.

    This however didn’t prevent me from putting an avatar in place. Problem was, I couldn’t see it or anyone else’s avatar.

    if I change my WordPress username to rs will it work. I see a place for changing the username

    Try it. At this point, it’s not going to hurt anything to give it a try.

    I’m pulling for you, rs! Smile

    Sorry. I won’t do a count-down until 5 minutes before.

    LOL I was just joking with you. Countdown away!

  45. TLKC says:

    25 minutes….. hope Billboard’s HDD site doesn’t crash. It might take a little longer if they are close.

  46. Ron says:

    rs says:
    05/21/2012 at 9:58 am

    Can’t change my username. Can somebody have 2 WordPress accounts?

    I was afraid of that.

    You can’t change the username nor can you delete your original account and start over. Many people have complained about this on the WP forums. Again, the username and the email address you used when you originally registered with WordPress must match when you register on other WP sites.

    Big Frown

  47. TLKC says:

    I wish I knew what % Adam did on the back-end reporting for FYE. I know it was low because he wasn’t in Walmart and Walmart is generally among the last reporting.

    The thing we don’t know is if Walmart and B&N will report their pre-sales early (as in report twice.) Probably not – too messy.

  48. rs says:

    ron, what is so weird is that WordPress said that they had no accound for me either under rs or under my email address. How could that be, since I signed up here? And how could I have created a new WordPress account today if I already had one from here? But it seems logical that someone could have two accounts if they use different email addresses and different user names. When I tried to sign in from here, after logging off from my other name, it asked if I want to create a WordPress account.

  49. Ron says:

    Hi TLKC! Kiss

    Are you sure these sales figures are going to appear at, or shortly after, 10:30am eastern time?

    Last Thursday, for the “One Day Sales” that were supposed to be posted around noon our time, I ended up refreshing the page every few minutes for the next 2 and 1/2 hours (!) until the info was finally available.

  50. TLKC says:

    The site says 7:30 Pacific time. Thing is, the closer the cd sales are the longer it will take.

    I was planning on cycling today so I may have to leave by 1:00 p.m. My trainer is going to play the Trespassing cd at the gym and I promised her I would do a real sweaty workout today and I want to keep her happy! Laugh
