    Sauli posted a new blogpost a couple of days ago from NY. It’s a cute post; he is so adorable:

    Hello everybody. My daughter and I have been following these threads(MJ’s, before this),for approx.1 1/2 years now! Finally decided to join the fun and chat with everyone. Seems like I know all of you and what has been going on in your lives. We too are major Adam fans(attended 10 of the GlamNation Concerts!)and think he is just the most talented, charismatic young man to come along in this, and the past century! As a woman in her late 50’s(hate that!)and a mother of 3-even a son the same age as Adam,I thought it so odd that I had turned into a groupie!! Never have followed any celebrity before(maybe the Beatles as a kid), and since growing up and living in the LA area, never gave a second thought to who we knew, or who my children knew. And then came ADAM. I still think something weird has happened to me, but it sure makes me happy, and loving Music Again! Hope to meet some of you soon, and thanks for sharing all of your lives with fellow stalkers!

    Hey cocoglam — welcome out of lurkdom! Glad you decided to come out and play in the sandbox! Smile

    This is a wonderful read — very loving and uplifting. Flecking Records did a couple of pieces on what there is to love about Adam. Lots and lots of fans helped come up with a myriad of reasons. LOL

    Original article soliciting reasons to love Adam: http://www.fleckingrecords.co.uk/2011/08/why-do-you-love-adam-lambert.html

    Welcome cocoglam It’s wonderful that you have your daughter to share Adam with and now all of us!

    cwm thanks for the blog posting. I am constantly amazed that Sauli has the reserve to not mention anything Adam. If we didn’t know better we would have thought he was traveling by himself. How does he manage to leave out probably one of the most incredable experiences of his life – seeing Adam perform- ? I know I couldn’t do it.

  7. nkd says:

    Welcome cocoglam!

    Love Sauli’s blog! Thanks for posting it cwm.

  8. Kradamour says:

    Welcome, cocoglam! Smile So glad to see another new poster!

    cwm, thanks for link to sauli’s blog. I love his writing style, which even seems to come across in translations. (But French is easy, Sauli! Smile ) And that he doesn’t blog about Adam. They both are doing an excellent job of protecting that relationship, without highlighting that protection in an unnatural way. Does that make sense? Some celebs are so defensive about what they want to keep private. Adam just makes the point that he is open about everything else, and would like please to keep this one little piece of his life to himself, in a very nice way. And to read Sauli’s blog, you would never even know that he is acquainted with Adam! I love the wry archness of that.

  9. luval says:

    I love Sauli and his blog!

    I have VH1 in the background on one of my tv’s to see if there’s any promo about the show tonight. So far nothing.

  10. ultimathule says:

    Believe Sauli, by his blog entries with no mention of Adam, is establishing himself as an individual personality and not, as I’ve mentioned before, just an appendage to Adam. This could be as important for Sauli as well as the privacy issue.

  11. Kradamour says:

    Sauli…is establishing himself as an individual personality and not…just an appendage to Adam. This could be as important for Sauli…as the privacy issue.

    Good point, ultimathule. Sauli has several times expressed his goal of a career in the celebrity world, and he is doubtless watching and learning from his time now with Adam. For their relationship to be successful in the long term, Sauli will need that individual indentity, and I would be surprised if that isn’t the subject of much conversation and thought. (Their conversation and thought, not ours LOL)

  12. cwm says:

    For those of you who like Sauli’s blogposts and think he’s pretty dang funny, you should enjoy these. I found them over at The Home Planet (where else?).

    Apparently, according to “Nala” at The Home Planet, “Sauli hosted (yrs ago) a tv-show with his friend Niko where they showed funny and weird homevideos/commercials/other videos from all over the world. In between the actual videos S & N sometimes showed some clips of themselves.”

    Here are some of their clips that Nala posted:

    Sauli as a cheerleader: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lx3fbNUfOnE&feature=related

    Dancing thumbs (my personal favorite): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AbdoDj2mbQ&feature=related

    Dancing while sweeping leaves (LOL): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJSIr9Kd5jU

    Agility: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWXp9WABvFM

    Dance Group Audition (cringe-worthy!): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3u7phtSKVhU

    LMAO — after watching things like these, it becomes clearer and clearer why Adam fell for Sauli. Sauli is naturally funny, a free spirit, a total goofball, willing to do most anything to entertain people and get a laugh, apparently doesn’t embarrass easily, and is completely adorable. Just like Adam. Smile They must be having a blast together, and lots and lots of laughs.

  13. ultimathule says:

    Sauli!!! What a screwball – love it.

  14. milwlovesadam says:

    Oh that Sauli, so cute!

    Hey!!!

    I said HEEEY!!

    OKAY. Now . Much better.

    I just wanted to let everyone know that it’s August 7th. An important day.

    It’s my parent’s 53rd wedding anniversary. ( Fer realz).

    Oh.

    And. I’m not sure. But. There might be something special to watch on TV tonight. Maybe.

    Gotta go. Real life. Hate it when that happens.

    See ya’all later. After the show. True Blood too. Egads. So much goodness. Sensory overload commencing in 10..9..8…7..6…

  15. milwlovesadam says:

    PS: For all of you who do not have VH1:

    Come onna my house….

    Oh. And welcome cocoglam to our sandbox. I’m glad you decided to play with us. We’re nice here. We share our toys and everything!

  16. ultimathule says:

    Thunderstorm in Upper Marlboro, Maryland – lights blinking. If PEPCO (acknowledged by all customers as one of the worst companies in the universe) goes out, it’ll be a dark day (in more ways than one) in this household.

    Been sending out twits re #AdamBehindTheMusic – the more the merrier – and see that Neil is living up to his negativity – his nose is out of joint because twitterers are not spelling Neil correctly. Is the guy serious? lol

  17. Oksana2000 says:

    3 more hours and 6 minutes.
    Can’t wait. Smile
    All my friends were notified, and if they forget to watch my wrath will fall upon them.
    Just saying.

  18. Oksana2000 says:

    I wonder if Adam pulled some strings to get into McQueen exhibit without waiting on line. The lines were enormous and waiting time was couple of hours just to get into Museum. And then was another looooong line for the exhibit itself.
    I’m pretty sure he did. Lucky boy.

  19. luval says:

    There is a livestream of Behind the Music tonight for people who don’t get VH1. From adamquotedaily here is the main page. Scroll down to see the livestream address. Hope it’s ok to post this.

  21. Oksana2000 says:

    OMG, did you see that black and white picture of Adam on adam quote daily?
    This should be our September photo.

  22. luval says:

    That black and white picture is gorgeous. He looks so young.

    Caught a couple of short promo clips on VH1. Of course they are all photos/clips from the AMA’s. But sounds like Adam is happy with the show so that’s all that counts.

  23. Ron says:

    Thank you, luval!! Maybe I’ll get to see this show after all!

    Welcome cocoglam!

    in her late 50′s(hate that!)

    You must know that we’re all 29+ on this blog. Wink

  24. luval says:

    Ron…it’s “29”…not 29+ Smile Smile Smile

  25. glambotgram says:

    That black and white photo is beautiful. The eyes again! mesmerizing

  26. Oksana2000 says:

    And the cartoon of Adam and Sauli is soooo cute!

    Ron…it’s “29″…not 29+

    Of course! That was a typo. (Yeah, that’s it! A typo). Smile

  28. luval says:

    Ron….very good on the block quote!!!

  29. cwm says:

    I have a question/favor/request —

    Does anyone out there have the capacity to record the BTM episode tonight and then burn it to a DVD? I don’t get VH1 and would love to have a copy of the episode for posterity (more Adamphernalia!) and also would love to be able to watch it on my big-screen tv instead of just my little computer screen.

    If you are willing to burn it to a DVD and mail it to me, I would be very grateful and very happy to reimburse you for “shipping and handling” expenses!

    If it doesn’t work out, no worries. But if you are willing and able to do this, please message me at cwm on the fansite. Thanks!! Smile

  30. Oksana2000 says:

    cwm, my friend is recording this for me and burning on DVD, I just don’t know when I’ll see him. He did this for me with THS. If I can find someone, who would go to the post office for me, then I would mail it to you. Unless you know someone who lives in NYC and can pick it up personally.
    It will be recorded in HD.

  31. cwm says:

    haha Thanks Oksana, but I definitely don’t know anyone in NYC!

  32. HK fan says:

    Has the BTM been on yet, or is it due on soon? am watching a livestream of VH1 (I think),but not sure if I’ve missed it or to keep waiting?

  33. cwm says:

    HK fan — it starts at 10:00pm Eastern time, which is in just over 1 hour on the east coast. Smile

  34. nkd says:

    I don’t think I care for that black/white picture on AQD. I love this one though from the concert.

  35. Kradamour says:

    Hmmm…livestream not working for me. Is there somehing I need to know?

  36. HK fan says:

    I’m watching vh1 but they’re still playing music videos……

  37. Ron says:

    No livestream for me either.

  38. Kradamour says:

    Well, Ron, let’s just sit together on the couch and chat while we wait for the show. Do you have any iced tea? (or a kir royal? Wink ?)

  39. Calgary says:

    Gaaaah! No livestream here in Calgary. I hope someone posts it on YT tomorrow. Frown

  40. Kradamour says:

    Come join us on the couch, Calgary!
    I’ll be very surprised if it isn’t on youtube tomorrow, but let’s wait for a while here while we see what happens.

  41. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Anybody else getting it yet? It’s fabulous so far!! Smile

  42. Ron says:

    I’d love to join you, Kradamour! Calgary, please sit next to me. Wink

    I’ll get the iced tea.

  43. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Believe it or not, you will probably love Leila and Eber even more – what wonderful, supportive parents!

  44. HK fan says:

    I’m watching the vh1 link from adamquotedaily posted above, but still getting music videos, so frustrated……….is there a different page I should be on.
    so sad, its my birthday today, so was hoping my birthday pressie would be to watch the show liveFrown

  45. Ron says:

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HK fan!

    I’ve googled and clicked on several Links for the livestream show and all of them have come up empty. Sorry!

    It’ll be on YouTube very shortly. Wink

  46. Kradamour says:

    Well, I think I’m giving up and going home. Ron, thank you for the tea, it was just the right sweetness! Just like you! Smile
    Calgary, HK fan, Ron, fingers crossed for youtube peeps to come through! They’ve never let us down before. I’m just worried because it is so long. Frown
    Happy birthday HK fan! You will get your present a day late, I am thinking. Smile

  47. HK fan says:

    Thanks Ron and Kradamour,
    can I still say I’m 29 even though I’m a tiny little way past that?

  48. Ron says:

    I don’t blame you Kradamour. Can I tempt you to stay by offering you a Long Island Iced Tea? Wink I think there’s everything in a Long Island Iced Tea except the tea part. Smile

  49. Ron says:

    Of course you can! I think there might be a few people here who are also “a tiny little way past that”. Just a “tiny little”. Wink
