‘The Star Spangled Banner’ Broadway Bares midnight show 6/23/13 – Video by Sam Bernero

Following a busy June with appearances at Pittsburgh Pride, all sorts of New York events and at Universal Orlando, Adam is back in California for a few open air concerts. The first one is in his childhood home of San Diego on July 2nd and then it’s on to Paso Robles on July 19th. Let’s hope that between concerts (and after) that Adam gets into the studio to work on new music.

For this month’s banner, I listened to luval‘s advice and posted a video – an impressive “Star Spangled Banner” that Adam sung before a very appreciate Broadway crowd. It’s perfect for the July 4th holiday but it’s just as amazing to listen to any time of year!
If you have any photos faves, please post them and I’ll add them below the video.
Enjoy the chat!

    Honey Boo Boo, Kim Kardashian, Vladimir Putin, Prince Harry, Rupert Murdoch, Anthony Weiner..

    LOL, really?

    You caught me, jlurksacto.

    I was responding to a poster who said that there couldn’t be a worse (judging) choice than J-HUD and Adam. Just pointing out that there could be much worse.

    A tiny thrust of humour in my quest to shape the discussion on possible judges….

    Meanwhile, Margaret Atwood has issued her own set of clues about Adam’s future:

    Alas! The trailer for @MargaretAtwood’s MaddAddam! The riveting conclusion to the trilogy. All will be revealed…

    The video couldn’t be more perfect to Adam’s situation.

    “The MaddAddamites must remain vigilant”. LOL!

    Ha, this is how my mind works….

    Waning Buck Moon > New Moon > Twilight Series > vampires > True Blood > Chancellor Drew is a character in True Blood. LOL!!

  6. luval says:

    You guys are so great in trying to decypher these “possible” clues!

  7. Kradamour says:

    …and Adam is probably just sitting back in wonder at the sh*tstorm of speculation about what was not intended as any sort of clue at all!
    Wink

  8. ultimathule says:

    Think he’s not above deliberately creating a little fuss just to keep us entertained, Krad – had that look in his eyes at the end of the vid.

  9. ultimathule says:

    Anyone else in love with that hand pic above – his hand movements are just so graceful for a big guy.

  10. luval says:

    I put the phrase “remember when we drew” on the on-line anagram solver. Came up with nothing.

  11. Kradamour says:

    If these are clues, I think the fandom is overthinking them. More likely that Adam would have had a spontaneous idea and just gone with it, rather than doing the plotting and thinking that is being read into it.

    ulti, I’m another who enjoys his hands. The nails have such a lovely shape, too.

    Johnny Depp is the new front runner to play Freddie Mercury in a movie – oooh this could be very good! @FreddieForADay

    New tweet – Hard Rock London

  17. Kradamour says:

    OMG…Johnny Depp as Freddie Mercury?
    I would go to see that movie. It will be a fascinating train wreck.
    Dazed

  18. riskylady says:

    Ha, well, hope Johnny doesn’t go for his now cliché Keith Richards/Jack Sparrow/Tonto, making a freak of Freddie.

  19. riskylady says:

    I think Sam Sparro would make a good Freddie. Don’t know if he can act, though.

  20. riskylady says:

    Post-ho mode.
    Here’s my completely made-up theory about Adam’s clues.

    Glee will resume regular shooting FOUR months from now (November) for a January return. Adam’s character, DREW, was in a car with Finn, and had an ACCIDENT where Finn died. His friends have finally located Drew, who was in the hospital in a coma. Turns out, he also auditioned for Funny Girl and has been chosen for the part opposite Rachel. Story ensues…..

    I have never watched Glee, so this may be a huuuuggge stretch LOL.

  21. ultimathule says:

    He has become a bit of a Johnny-One-Note acting-wise, riskylady – almost becoming a parody of himself. Besides he’s turning 50, short, and can’t sing. Last pic I liked that he was in was when he played J. M. Barrie (Peter Pan) in “Finding Neverland” – Kate Winslet/Julie Christie – wonderful pic about ten years ago.

    shoshanna stone ‏@shoshannastone 2m

    There are pictures of one of our artists which haunt me. They are horrid and get the keep appearing! Yet there are newer ones!

    (Wonder who she’s talking about.)

    hahahahahaha

    Adam tweeted – pick me off the floor

  24. riskylady says:

    Ah, yes, Ulti, “Finding Neverland” was lovely. Hope after the fiasco of Lone Ranger he will look for better roles.
    ETA: And I don’t mean Freddie Mercury.

  25. luval says:

    Am I the only one on earth that hates Robin Thicke’s song Blurred Lines…video too?? Like him, not the song.

  26. riskylady says:

    Nope, luval, not by a long shot. Most in my Twitter feed hate the song and video, too.

  27. ultimathule says:

    Sorta liked it when first heard it, but hasn’t worn well.

  28. ultimathule says:

    Have loved the Avicii song, Wake Me Up,” embedded in that article above ever since heard it a while ago. Kids like it, too.

    Don’t remember seeing this one

  31. luval says:

    riskylady, for never seeing Glee before that is a very interesting and plausible scenario for Adam’s character.

    I have to get my “wheels” spinning and think of something. Would be fun to keep a list of all of our speculations regarding the so-called clues to see if any of us were close to being correct.

  32. luval says:

    ultimathule, I really like that song Wake Me Up too.

  33. Kradamour says:

    Allison is not aging well.
    Frown
    She looked older than Adam in that photo.
    I really want her to be successful – so glad that she is signed again. Wonder what if any part Adam played in that, given that she opened for him.
    But she needs to e.nun.ci.ate.more.clearly when she sings.
    I loved her acoustic Holiday so much.

    ADAM LAMBERT POPSTAR! Adam Lambert (28) is the interesting product of the worldwide casting-show system, an openly gay superstar with humor and courage.
    The reason for Adam Lambert looking like he does is the fault of a Berliner hairstylist…

    Full translation -> http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1rli5vc#sthash.32DBJ3Ol.dpuf

    Old stuff – but didn’t know about the hair coloring

    ETA – Edited by AL to have only a sentence or two and then link to the complete translation.

    Sooo much speculation, so much fun.

    Anna Kendrick is going to guest judge on SYTYCD.

    This is Darren Criss ( oh look, he’s really going bald in real life LOL ) with Michelle Chamuelle

  38. luval says:

    Very interesting Beyonce article, ulti. You would think an artist would know where they wanted to go with their next album. Smile I guess it’s harder than we think.

    Doesn’t matter to me if the songs are all different in an album. I personally don’t care what direction an artist takes. Just good songs!

  39. luval says:

    lol…Honey Boo Boo and her family are facing off with the Cake Boss family on an upcoming Family Feud…for charity.

    And the charity the Boo Boo’s are playing for?….drum roll…..
    GLAAD!

  40. ultimathule says:

    There was a big discussion at MJ’s about Criss’s balding – Mod even entered into the back and forth. Agreed – balding.

  41. ultimathule says:

    Wouldn’t you have loved to be a fly on the wall on that Lifeball Jet, glambotgram?

  42. ultimathule says:

    Thanks, AL – was gonna do that but got called away for a sec.

  43. milwlovesadam says:

    Mountains = No Boundaries

    4 = 4 judges ( I still say Miley, Adam and Keith. The fourth one is prolly JHud UGH )

    DREW = I have no frigging idea

    Buck moon = True Blood. Maybe a role. Maybe a song. Chokehold would make a great closing song.

    FWIW, I actually really like Blurred Lines. The song just hooks you in and has become an earworm for me. The video, both versions, is simply scandalous, and helps sell it.

    Love the alternative version Adam tweeted. I also find it hilarious. LOL, yes, Thicke’s video is “unfair” to women, and exploits women, objectifies women, yada yada, I’m actually quite the feminist in real life, BUT, the video is over the top on purpose, and it just doesn’t bother me very much. Maybe because they are all having such a good time. Yes, the guys are all fully clothed. I get it. I just like it. Question

    Cher’s following Tommy.

  45. milwlovesadam says:

    Cher and Adam and Queen?

    OMG

  46. luval says:

    I’m agreeing with several of you regarding clues. Mountain, no boundaries & 4-4 judges. So far, that is it! DREW is killin’ me, however.

  47. milwlovesadam says:

    Wouldn’t you have loved to have been a fly on the wall on that Lifeball Jet?

    Yup. And I heard that the jet was a-rockin’ in several definitions of the word.

    “Clean-up in aisle 7.”

  48. ultimathule says:

    cackle

  49. milwlovesadam says:

    Drew

    A drawing

    A bath

    Names out of a hat

    A lottery

    Gaaaah.

    More clues Adam, more clues needed.

    Or a press release. Seriously, fans are imploding here. Brain cells combusting. Glitter flying.

  50. milwlovesadam says:

    Okay. I’ve got it.

    By moonlight, Adam appears on True Blood, as a shape-shifter, and is a Buck. A big 4 pointed buck, in the mountains, and then, Lafayette finds him, and the buck turns into Adam, and then Lafayette DRAWS him a bath…

    Yup. Me likey this code-breaker.
