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!

    luval, just wondering if you saw a merch area at the concert? Were they selling CD’s?

  2. missdfyed says:

    #1 on Billboard!! I am just so happy for him right now, all his hard work paid off, the more I listen to the CD the more I love it. There always seems to be a song runnin in my head all day ( and sometimes at night). So glad he took the extra time to make it perfect.
    All those of you going to Wilkes Barre, prepare yourself, I bet he will be in one heck of a good mood, you are in for a treat I beleive!

  3. luval says:

    Good question, mils…There was a merchandise booth but it was so packed I never got to look. But from what I could tell…only tee shirts (none of Adam that I saw from walking by). Was listening to 102 on my way home & all they could talk about was the Springle Ball and Enrique! Not a word about Adam!

    Wanted to mention too that Adam & the band sounded sooooo much more tight & superior than any of the other acts there.

  4. Nicky says:

    Hi Everyone:

    It’s been a while since I posted, but real life keeps me too busy. I do pop in all the time to see whats up with everyone. I am at work, so have to keep this short, but today is such an EPIC day that just wanted to pop in to say how proud I am of Adam’s achievements. He really deserves the #1 after all his hard work and perseverence!! Hope that radio now follows along and starts to play this amazing music.

    Quick question, are there any Canadians going to the Wilkes Barre show on Friday?

  5. luval says:

    Hi Nicky! Still feel like your videos from Ste. Agathe are just really great and are equal in quality to most any out there. Not too sure if any Canadians are going. Most seem to be from the lower 48!

    Hope you get to see Adam in Toronto or Montreal.

  6. luval says:

    Is anybody watching the new E show Mrs Eastwood? Taped it and am just viewing now. There is a singing group called Overtone from South Africa living with the Eastwoods…one of the guys is gay and was just told by the lead founding member NOT to publicize it and come out of the closet because it might ruin their future success. He started crying and said “I can’t live like this”. OMG… so sad.

  7. Nicky says:

    Hi Luval:

    Thanks for the reply. Hope you are keeping well. I was thinking maybe I might have a slim chance to go. If I knew there was going to be a show in Canada, I would not be so anxious to go to Wilkes-Barre, combined with the fact that it will be a great show after what Adam has achieved today.
    I wonder if anyone here will be at the Toronto HMV signing on Monday May 28?

    Thanks for your appreciation for the vids. I am so thankful for all the others who take the time and effort to post vids for all of us to enjoy when we can’t be at an Adam show in person. Smile

  8. luval says:

    Nicky…Ron & TLKC will be there on Monday as well as several other Canadians who were at Ste. Agathe. You will know Ron when you see him. Just look at his avatar! He was a few people behind where you were filming. Go introduce yourself!

  10. missdfyed says:

    Well looky who decided to show up! I finally figured it out, was using the wrong e-mail. Now that I see it, don’t know if I like it (just like a woman). Oh well for now I’ll just stick with the toes.

    Love Love Love the Rolling Stone headline AL.

  13. Oksana2000 says:

    Good Afternoon!
    I went to MJs to enjoy Adam celebratory thread about his #1, unfortunately I had to put up with two butthurt fans of other Idols (Miz-Kris Allen, Kaya Burke – David Cook).
    It rained on my parade so hard that even imaginery forcefield didn’t help…
    BTW, my prediction about Kris opening number could be true.. it might equal Adam 37.7% HDD reporting number..

  14. Ron says:

    Oksana, this is HDD prediction for Kris Allen:

    Eighth season Idol winner Kris Allen’s 19/RCA sophomore album, Thank You Camellia, is looking at 15-20k after his debut scored 80k out of the box in Nov. ‘09. It’s interesting to note, the contestant he defeated, Adam Lambert, entered at #1 last week with his second album, Trespassing, generating sales of 77k

  15. Ron says:

    Hi luval!! Good to see you home safe and sound! Will phone around 6:30. Can’t wait to hear all about it!!

  16. Ron says:

    Hi Nicky!

    Not sure if you remember seeing me in Ste.-Agathe but I will be at the autograph session on Monday. Hope to see you there!

  17. AL says:

    Adam is now in the Billboard 200 wiki entry (for the next week anyway)
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billboard_200

    The current number-one album (as of the issue dated June 2, 2012) on the Billboard 200 is Trespassing by Adam Lambert.

    Billboard dates are always a week ahead.

  18. Nicky says:

    Hi Ron:

    I am hoping I can get to the HMV signing on Monday. Trying to re-arrange real life a little bit. If I get there, I will look out for you. What time do you plan on getting there?

  19. rs says:

    Why do I keep posting Kris Allen’s tweets? It isn’t like I follow him or anything. I just always thought that their friendship was genuine, even if they move in different circles now.

    I hope things work out so that you’ll be able to go. Did you get your Access Pass? No definite plans as of now for Monday but I’ll post here and let you know when those plans come together. I do know that a number of us plan to go to dinner afterwards and you’re more than welcome to join us.

  22. rs says:

    All those tweets make the tears well up in my eyes. Can’t help it. Proud tears

  23. luval says:

    Kobalt music tweet is a biggie.

  24. milwlovesadam says:

    Cantiello’s tweets crack me up!!

    I’m just so happy today!!

    BTW. Saw Bieber on Ellen today. So, not only is he sporting Adam’s hair, Adam’s double guages, and Adam’s album art, now, he goes onstage wearing:

    Fingerless gloves.

    What. The . Frack?

    Oh. And the cover art has less yellow. Now the title banner is just white lettering. Still looks like Adam’s though.

  25. Nicky says:

    Ron:

    I will try to keep lookin in to see what your plans are for monday. Hope to see u all there.

    Thanks!

  26. milwlovesadam says:

    Wonder if Seacrest will give Adam a shout out tonight?

  27. Ron says:

    Nicky,

    Do you have Skype?

    If you’re a member of the fan site, I could leave you messages there.

  28. dcglam says:

    Wonder if Seacrest will give Adam a shout out tonight?

    Mils, that would be wonderful, but I doubt it will happen. I hope I am wrong.
    Speaking of the finale this evening…..
    I agree with Adam in that Jessica has the vocals. However, in my opinion she does not have the star power.

  29. fwachdr says:

    mils, Remember the interview with Kris and Adam during Idol, when Adam said he preferred to be on top?! Well, now he is!!
    BTW, UPS just delivered my LA Weekly mag…It’s bigger than I thought it would be…full of people I never heard of (I’m not exactly hip and for sure not hip about Calif people), but Adam’s article is the centerfold!! What a great day!!!

  30. milwlovesadam says:

    dcglam, I agree. She just bores me. She has very good technical singing ability. She lacks star power. She’s “undercooked”, IMHO. She needs a lot more experience working a stage and crowd.

    And lower heels. She could barely move last night. It’s just ridiculous! I know she’s an itty-bitty little 90 pound girl, but, honestly, those heels may give her extra height, but they handicap her ability to move!

    Phil’s gonna won it. I’ve been saying it since his audition. He has loads of charisma. He’s absolutely adorable. He sings OK. Not great. But, girls will go wild for him.

  31. HK fan says:

    So happy for Adam, he deserves this so much.

  32. milwlovesadam says:

    fwachdr: Yay for your magazine. I didn’t order it. I’m trying to keep my expenses down overall. ( Unemployed Frown ).

    What is the picture they used?

  33. dcglam says:

    Phil’s gonna won it. I’ve been saying it since his audition. He has loads of charisma. He’s absolutely adorable. He sings OK. Not great. But, girls will go wild for him.

    I totally agree!!

    Thank you so much. I really enjoyed that!!!

    Sauli’s a busy boy. Doing his thing with Katri, and hosting a fashion show in Finland. Also can’t wait to see which questions he answers for his Fault issue.

  36. milwlovesadam says:

    riskylady. Look. He’s wearing Adam’s grandfather’s ring!!

  37. PlanetFierce says:

    My call tonight is for Phil to win. He’s hot and it’s the women that vote. Jessica is too immature and there is just something about her that I just don’t care for. Phil is GENUINELY soulful and he has a style all his own that I really do like. He will only get better and better. AND he can write and play the guitar…win win!!!

  38. glambotgram says:

    I agree Phil is going to win, but not for any of the reasons mentioned above. LOL WGWG that’s all
    I don’t like to listen to him,
    everything sounds the same,
    can’t look at him, his weird antics just bother me,
    Nothing cute about him IMO.
    But he will win cause that’s all America can seem to vote for.
    That being said I didn’t care enough about any of them to vote so I guess it doesn’t matter, I would just like to see the mold broken, and the judges really judge and not pimp their favs.

  39. Nicky says:

    Ron:

    I am not on skype, sorry. Do you usually post every day on this site? I will try to check each day at some point. Is there a way of sending another poster a message via this site?

  40. glambotgram says:

    Well we know it’s not just Brian and Kiesha there.

    http://instagr.am/p/K_LyH9FmtF/

  41. HK fan says:

    Just saw on twitter that Adam got no1 album in Hungary too, that makes 3 with Canada.

    Love that twitter pic of Adams faces….he really does give ‘good face’…

    I don’t mind if Phil wins tonight, he’s really grown on me during the competition, don’t find him ‘hot’ though. Could see myself listening to some of his stuff, especially his single from last night, very mumford and sons. My 23yo said she could see herself buying his music too.

  42. fwachdr says:

    The cover is the head shot, and the full page picture inside is the leopard pants, black jacket, on the high-backed red & gold chair. It’s not really a centerfold (slight exaggeration), but he’s the only person who got a full page picture and full page opposite for the interview. Everyone else got picture and interview all on one page. It’s newspaper quality paper, but the cover is gorgeous!

  43. glambotgram says:
  44. ms0712 says:

    Was listening to 102 on my way home & all they could talk about was the Springle Ball and Enrique! Not a word about Adam!

    Elvis Duran & the Morning Show (NY Z100 & is syndicated on over 40 radio stations nationwide) was there and Adam was one of the artists they mentioned. They said that Adam is a really nice guy. They also played an interview with him. Danielle Monaro loves Adam and said that he’s turned her into a stalker….lol. Laugh I guess, a lot of his fans can relate.

    Also, NY 95.5 WPLJ mentioned his album being #1 on the Billboard charts. Cool

    Big Smile

  45. Ron says:

    I finally decided what I’m going to wear this Monday when I meet Adam … Chaka Khan’s outfit tonight on Idol.

    Good Lord. Rolls Eyes

  46. luval says:

    Did Rhianna just say “I love you Adam”?

  47. ultimathule says:

    Rihanna brought back the lasers and the green triangle.

  48. Northern Spirit says:

    Hey, the coding tabs are back! Thanks Eywflyer!

    Hi Nicky. I’m another Canuck here. You were asking if anyone here knows of any Canadians going down to Wilkes Barre. I know one person. She lives north of Toronto. Are you going? Do you have a ticket or need one? She may still have an extra one left.

    I’ll be at the HMV Adam autograph session on Monday in Toronto. Can’t wait!! Hope you can make it. We don’t get many opportunities like this, and this one seemed so easy to snag for some reason.

    Adam soars to the top of Billboard 200! A great day. A well deserved honour for Adam. This is such a brilliant album. I can’t stop playing Runnin’

  49. Northern Spirit says:

    What *are* you going to wear, Ron? I’ve decided I’m not going to fret about it this time. Besides, photos with Adam are not likely to happen. I’m more worried about hiding a large red mark left after I had liquid nitrogen treatment on my face last week. I’m just glad it doesn’t now look like what it did last week. Yikes.

  50. AL says:

    A thoughtful article

    Yes, indeed! Thanks for posting glambotgram!
