Thanks, luval. I’m longwinded so it took me a while to write it all out. We thought of you while we were there. We were wondering if David Bowie would show up at the concert. Then we were hoping to run into him on the street while we were wandering about. No such luck! And no off site Adam sightings either.
Trying valiantly to catch up but it’s hopeless, too much to do to catch up in RL.
But wanted to post how much I loved the episode of “Ron’s Runway”!
What I loved best was the graceful strut and how the clothing moved so well, THAT is what makes long coats so wonderful, and Ron knows how to show off the clothing to best advantage.
When I saw your post, Ron, I thought “uh, oh, this might be cringeworth” but I have just finished watching the video about a half dozen times, enjoyed it so much! Thank you!
I was thinking the same thing about David Bowie…whether he’d be there. So many connections to him and Nile.
I promise a recap for tomorrow. Not much to add to the great recollections of my equally great traveling companions, but do have a few thoughts and comments to make about the event and Adam’s role in it. Plus writing is my way to lock a memory in place, so thank you in advance for your patience while I fill up blog pages!
I thought I had when I posted the link above but is seems that it reset to the beginning of the slide show.
Here it is for the second time!

AL: SWAK!
AL…you didn’t post the video of the kissing interview did you? Here it is.

So Adam tweeted about Beyonce’s Super Bowl performance? Nice but my question is, Is Adam watching the Super BowL???
Adam’s tweet gets a mention.
http://www.salon.com/2013/02/04/twitter_suspects_beyonce_fierceness_caused_super_bowl_blackout/
Speculation was that Adam and Sauli were watching with neighbor Kelly Osborne:
He also tweeted:
So, he was watching.
What I saw on YT was a disappointing performance by Beyonce. Vocals OK, but dancing amateurish. Not very exciting.
Anyone like it as much as Adam? Better on a big TV or live?
Ultima, I didn’t watch it, don’t care that much for Beyonce although I do like Kelly Rowland. But for me, Prince was the best a few years back in Miami, performed through a major downpour.
Saw the vid over there and it was much better – but, like you,riskylady, not a huge fan of her voice although there’s one song I really like, “If I Were a Boy.” Think she did a fine job and everyone seemed to enjoy it. (Her dancing, though, seems to consist of squatting and stomping – not very graceful – JLo far better.)
Thank you for the nice compliment!
Welcome home both here and in Norfolk. Happy that you were able to spend time with some wonderful people. It looks like you got to see a great show too!
Looking forward to part 2 of your recap on the other thread.
In addition to the Adam/China comment in Forbes, there is at least one other suggestion that Adam’s foray into China has been noted. In this month’s Vanity Fair, there is a mock conversation between Nikki Minaj and Thomas Friedman about the Chinese market. Being the internationalist that he is, Friedman urges her to “find her extra”: “what your Barbz won’t do, a Chinese girl in Zhengzhou will”.
At one point he uses the phrase “not so much”, which reminded me of Eber. I couldn’t help wondering if the humorist who wrote it, David Kamp, is a Glambert.

Adam mention. Last page. Front page on CNN.

Twitter mention for positive headlines!
I watched the vid of Beyonce at SuperBowl. I think she has a great voice, but I’m not very interested in her music. Some good slow songs though. I’ve seen before on tv her previous show, that show was in NY late summer 2011 I think (she was already pregnant) and dancing was much better then. Maybe not as good fit yet after having a child? But I think this SB show was ok for the large stadium, a lot of dancers who moved in sync. But I was certainly not thrilled.
Re earlier discussion about arena concerts – I would rather see Adam at smaller venues than Wembley It was interesting to hear about the situation in US – I could believe what luval said that these days most artists don’t sell very big venues. My guy said only some old heavy metal bands (and Madonna and Bruce Springsteen) sell out Olympic stadiums these days – they are so called long term stars. I’m still a bit surprised that Adam has sold so well his coming concert in Finland. Capacity is 13000, there are still tickets left but less than 1000. So he performs at the same arena than Rihanna, Pink, Bieber etc. But the fact is there is no rock/pop concert venue size between 3000 (Adam’s last concert here) and that 13 000!
Jojosie, I hope that too When there will next Adam shows in Europe, it would be nice to have traveling company! What I’ve learned recently is that Finnish “hard-core” fandom is pretty tight, they organize a lot of other happenings too, not only going to concerts. Cruises, parties etc. People who travel abroad for concerts are usually older fans, over 25. I haven’t met anyone yet, so it will be nice to meet people. There’s not a sandbox, only occasional short talks in twitter. I like to read longer thoughts and info too than 140 letters
LadyNorth I think that’s the same situation everywhere – the 2000+/- seat concert hall or the enormous 10,000+ seat arena. For me. I’d far rather go to the 2000-seat venue. Although I saw Leonard Cohen at our 20,000 seat sports arena recently and I was impressed with the sound system. I hadn’t gone to a big show in years and they certainly have improved the audio. I suspect if Adam wants to tour in small venues, he’ll have to limit the size of his
entourage, or he won’t make much money.
This video is kind of a train wreck, but I hadn’t seen it and I was amazed by the fact that the AMAs were part of the conversation in fricking MAY 2012! most of the comments/interactions are very interesting. If it is already commonly known, pardon my post!

Kradmour, I just watched the video, and I must say that they will be asking Adam about the AMAs for ever, its part of who he is, and alto we have heard a lot about it, I hope some day, Adam writes a book or memoirs or does a movie like the Fetus did and he can get into all his feelings that day before and after it happened, and actually what went on. They did rehearse everything, we saw the rehearsal tapes, heard Ryan S for days set him up, with you wont believe what happens at the end of the show with Adam Lambert, I really believe they set him up, and for things he did in the past this was mild, but the public was sure not ready for this. Alto it did make him famous. What if it didnt happen, what then??? Sorry for rehashing it, I was even shocked watching it on live TV just couldnt believe it was our nice Adam from AI and he was all out there. Imagine what people that werent following him thought. Of course the people that are entertainers didnt think anything of it. And like he said girls can get away with it, just not men. JMO of course!
Adam birthday mention on Wendy Williams

Ugh…. Sorry to hear this from Adam:
I’m glad he is home and doesn’t seem to have any performances scheduled for a while.
Rest up and feel better soon, BB!!
Bound to catch up with him – all the flight time.
Happy birthday Ron x
Adam on TMZ! I didn’t catch what they were talking about cuz my TV was on mute as usual. Something about gay bars.
So stupid, always gay gay gay…
Happy wonderful birthday, Ron!
Oksana…let me try this link. TMZ wasn’t so bad regarding Adam.
http://www.tmz.com/videos/0_9r9f6py8
Luval, actually it wasn’t bad, I was able to record it. Quick thinking on my part!
TMZ dude was asking Adam if it’s true that straight guys can score with girls much faster in the gay bars and Adam said, sure, no competition! Ha!
Luval, thanks for the link. Was this from yesterday? Sick, or no sick Adam always looks gorgeous.
Probably was when he flew back from New York. Most likely yesterday.
I’m surprised that with the amount of flying Adam does he is not sick more often. Prolly flying first class gives him some shelter from coughing, sneezing and generally sick passengers.
There is nothing like a plane to get everyone sick. I got the worst flu in my life flying from Cancun to NY.In September.
Happy birthday, Ron! May your special day be filled with sunshine and happiness.
Happy Birthday Ron!!!
Ron, I know your birthday is tomorrow, but I will be out of town and away from internet for the next three days. So, I wanna take this time to wish you one of your best birthdays yet. Happy, Happy Birthday, Friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you have an opportunity for a wonder-filled celebration.
Look at all of these thoughtful birthday wishes!!
You’re very kind and I thank you very much!
Yes Ceddies it’s tomorrow. I only have about 3 more hours to be able to say that I’m 60. At midnight, I’ll be … well, I’ll be going back to “29” I think from now on!
I had tomorrow afternoon all mapped out in mind. I was going to do something I’ve never done before … have my hair professionally colored with highlights added. The person that cuts my hair and who would also do the coloring doesn’t work on Tuesdays though. I have to wait until Wednesday.
You should have heard the screaming over the phone from luval and TLKC!!
“No, no, no … don’t do it!!” said one and “NO, you dingbat” said the other.
These were their responses when I told them I was going to have it colored white with silver and grey highlights. I got the sense that they didn’t like the idea. They kind of talked me out of it. I don’t know what it’s going to end up looking like but we’ll come up with something. But it won’t be anywhere near white.
Many thanks to those who remembered my birthday. I appreciate it very much!
I thought today was the 5th. Go for it Ron! I’ve changed my mind. You only live once. Hair grows back and it won’t take a year! Besides, it’s winter and you are a hat kinda guy!
Ron, happy birthday to a wonderful guy! YOU!!
You , you, wonderful you….
Oh, pish/tosh, Ron – do what Adam would do – the opposite of what people are telling you to do.
I don’t have birthdays – can see no advantage in getting any older. A good one for you, though, Ron, if you like that sort of thing.
Well, with the boy under the weather, guess there’ll be a drought of pics for the next few days – bummer. How the heck will I amuse myself – could go pay the bills, I guess.
Awwwww
I could make him soup.
TeeHee.
I’m thinking about him, Sauli and Kelly watching the Superbowl. Smoking wacky tobacky and having a few drinkipoos.
Talking about the cute players and their costumes. Maybe tackling each other.
Y’know what? Even i would watch a football game with friends like that! And that’s saying a lot, ‘cuz I don’t even watch the Packers play!! ( I know, I know, I’m a pariah ).
I think it was the football that made him sick. The poor boys constitution is just not used to it.
Happy Birthday Ron
I think it was all the birthday kisses he got from so many people.
LOL. Maybe it was from his lapdance!!
Back in town (travel soccer for glamchildren has started again) and am catching up on the threads. Loved Ron’s runway project (my favorite was with the vest!) and wish him Happy BD, as well as other ALL’ers with recent BD’s! Sooo thankful to get the recaps from mmm222, adamized, nkd and kradamour! To see A-N-S do Shady live had to be a dream come true!! Beyonce knocking out the power is hilarious…half naked women for half crazed fans seems appropriate…anyway, I love Halo. Nighty, night…busy RL tomorrow.
Ron: Have a wonderful birthday and an even more wonderful year! You are very dear to me and I am sure all of us here. I love your go-for-it spirit with regards to outfits/hair. I want to see pictures! Did you invite David Arquette??? Then I really want to see pictures!
These TMZ guys are like high school boys…
To my fabulous fellow Aquarians –
Happy Birthday, Ron! Hope it is as wonderful as you are!
Happy Belated Birthday, little duchess! Thinking about our great road trip to WB! Hope your birthday was Adamtastic!
Happy belated birthday to the lovely little duchess! So sorry I missed it earlier.
Happy Birthday to dear sweet Ron! You stole my heart long ago.
Just popping in before going to bed.
Now it’s official. It’s February 5th but it isn’t official-official until 9:55am. That’s the time on my birth certificate. I planned it that way. I wanted to be born in the morning. I knew that it would be best because I wanted to start the day off on the right foot and have coffee and some breakfast. I had waffles.
Thank you mils, glambotgram, fwachdr, turquoisewaters, sparkle and nkd!!
You all have such generous, thoughtful hearts and you’ve certainly touched mine! It means a lot to me. You mean a lot to me!
I DID invite David Arquette, turquoisewaters! I’m shocked though because he never got back to me! Very odd! Well, he’s off my Christmas card list.
Good night and, again, thank you very much!
