‘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!

    I would be happy to give you a hand if needed.

    Thanks Miss Chaos! I’ll add you to the list. I didn’t know much about web pages either but know a little more now. Hosting a concert thread involves learning some stuff but it’s not that complicated. I’ll be happy to go over it with you should I need help in the future.

    AL, I told eywflyer that I was happy to help, and the same applies to you. Teach me skilz, tho! I’m pretty computer savvy in general, but will need task-specific instruction.

  4. nkd says:

    You can add me to that list too, AL. I’ll be happy to help wherever I am needed.

  5. AL says:

    Okay then, we have plenty of thread hosting volunteers!
    Thanks so much Kradamour and nkd! You’re added to the list. Four helpers should be plenty as long as we all don’t go to the same concert in the future. So it’s good to have East Coasters, West Coasters, Northerners and Southerners! We’ll have all parts covered!

  6. ultimathule says:

    Love to give you a hand, AL – and a foot, too, if needed. But it looks like you’ve got a strong lineup right now – and I’d probably need more training than the more skilled here.

    Good news from cos2mwiz – who put up those two great vids from ATT – will be at Paso with better – more centered – seats and hopes to get good vids.

    Hi .. AL … I’m happy to help. It’s the least thing I can do for this wonderful site.
    I can be a back-up person .. kind of last resource if you need me.
    I’m retired, empty nest, and I’m here most of the time. No fat chance to go to any concert with you guys. So I’ll hold the fort.

    Warning: I’m kind of dense. Razz

    @glam_alidol: Gillette is a famous brand of shaver,their official weibo suggested Adam can buy their shaver to shave his melvin lol #joke

    @glam_alidol: Haha @terra_zephead @CuckooBert @hcluless check this weibo , http://t.co/Br2mnDdFPW
    Gillette official RTed “how to shave Adam’s melvin “

    OMG. Too funny!

  10. ultimathule says:
  11. ultimathule says:

    Dude is wait to see how much stubble, will use P, and this time handed a Gillette do not save more ~ ​​[sinister] # spring with Hu man only needs a razor #

    Is there more? Think I’m missing sumthin.

    Guess it’s just “how to shave Adam’s melvin”

    How the heck they get that – cracks me up.

  12. ultimathule says:

    Was posted on other thread.

  13. aely says:

    The Chinese fans were talking on Weibo about “how to get Adam to shave” and Gillette saw it retweeted it then said he could use their razor to shave. A joke but funny they picked that up.

  14. ultimathule says:

    Just love that, aely – perhaps it’ll emerge as a worldwide nickname for that type of facial hair decoration.

    Just want to say thanks to AL and all of you that have volunteered to help. Rose

  17. milwlovesadam says:

    Couldn’t open that shaver thing. Sounds funny though.

    Home Planet. Home Planet. Too funny. Love her. She has a way of subtly making her point, doesn’t she? TeeHee

    Down time…12 days until a new show…let’s hope for some clubbung, some interviews, something….

    Tap, tap, tap…hmmmm…howz about a new “Best of” list?

    Best of 2013.

    I nominate the new Purple Haze/ AYGGMY at any show.

    Stay.

    Who else has nominations?

  18. milwlovesadam says:

    Just found this. Say what you will about Gaga, but I just love her:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=8A1rWwq9Shg

  19. luval says:

    Gaga looks beautiful. Her rendition of the SSB was beautiful (except for her changing the words to suit her cause…if everybody did that…sports arenas, etc. there would be a backlash). Anyway, she has a lovely voice, seems to come naturally & with little effort, no straining…unlike K. Perry and some others out there IMO.

    Will have to think about the nominations, mils. I know IIHY with Adam holding that note at the beginning is jaw dropping. So many choices!

    btw I just came in from 1 hour of yardwork. So much rain here everything is overgrown. And of course I haven’t even looked at it for 4 years! Smile

  20. cwm says:

    Just want to add my deep gratitude to eywflyer for everything you have done to get this site going and keep it going. It’s a blessing for so many of us. Will always appreciate you for this gift. We’ll miss you, and I hope we see you again sometime!

    Also want to add my many thanks to AL for all of your efforts organizing and managing threads and keeping us rabble rousers in line (Smile ). Thanks also to those of you who volunteered to help AL!

    AL – I was so glad to see that you are planning on putting up a thread for the July 3 Live Proud concert! Phew! With 10 songs, good videos, great pics, great press, etc., it deserves its own thread for posterity.

    Thank you so much! Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help. If it helps you, here are the links from both TALCvids and cos2mwiz, who have posted vids from the show:

    I think TALC is still working on uploading vids, so there might be more forthcoming.

    Smile

  21. luval says:

    Thanks for those links, cwm. I have to be honest & say I haven’t looked at any of them yet until now. WOW! He really is fantastic in a smaller setting. And of course my favorite opening…IIHY…and holding that note. This just might be my nomination for 2013!

  22. riskylady says:
  23. ultimathule says:

    Love how the light occasionally flashes into his eyes in these vids and you can see the vivid blue – striking.

    Has there been any info on the bracelet from someone in the audience that he put on his arm during the speeches?

  24. ultimathule says:

    Whatta terrific pic that is, riskylady – the caption is correct on that one.

    Roger sends his love. We had a great Queen meeting yesterday – mainly discussing Freddie Film. But we have a new track or two cookin’. Bri

    Gelly ‏@14gelly
    RT @Lolly_zzz: Who is going to sing these new Queen tracks Brian?

    Hmmmm… Let me think …. Psy … May be?

    The sky just turned black, gale force winds suddenly swept over the city and I could hear dogs howling everywhere.

    rs must have landed in Toronto.

    ROTFL ROTFL ROTFL

    See you on Saturday rs Jump

    (You can smack me then) Laugh

  30. retjenny says:

    My nomination for Best of 2013(so far )is STAY on WAG Tour. He can drain enough emotion out of that to fill a bucket!

  31. riskylady says:

    LOL Ron!

    I got the impression from Brian May’s tweets overall that the collab with Psy is just HIM, Brian May, not Queen. Brian does a lot of collabs like that. He did mention that Psy is a Queen fan and knows a lot about them, but I still think the collab is just with Brian, similar to his collab with Gaga and others.

    Mils, I nominate FYE from the WAG tour (with top hat and fringes!) and also the Dragon Attack/Shady combo for your 2013 list.

    Oh, and the National Anthem from Broadway Bares!

    Loved the whole Nagoya concert, asif – keep going back to it.

  36. Ron says:

    After much consideration, I’ve decided to release “Welcome To Burlesque” as my debut single. Wink

    I think it’s a better song than “Better Than I Know Myself” for a first release. Grin

    I thought I’d give you a sneak preview of the official video that will go with it.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y68REdDGf6g

    I had NO idea what I was doing but it was fun trying to put it together.

    I was very precise as to when the photos would change in time with the music. That took a lot of note taking and a lot of care.

    So, damn it all, uploading it to YouTube didn’t transition well for some reason and it’s imprecise and not nearly the way that the original looks. The last note and the last image end together. But not in this version.

    Oh, well … it was still fun.

    I’m going to use the first photo for the cover of my CD. Laugh

  40. HK fan says:

    Just wanted to say that whilst watching Murray win Wimbledon (yay!!) last night, they showed Bradley Cooper several times in the Royal Box…..and he’s shaved!! looks lovely. please Adam follow suit…

    Now we’re talkin’, Ron – that was marvelously entertaining. Looking forward to more like that.

  46. ultimathule says:

    Hey, mils – Daughtry was great – so was 3DD as well as the opening act Halestorm with a fantastic gal singer. Hot as hell in Solomons, but beer and music kept me going.
