mils – I was curious about where Montreux was so I searched it up – not in Canada like I was thinking – it’s in Switzerland! – in the Swiss Riviera near an airport so it might be doable. little dutchess and all the peeps headed to London should stay tuned! little dutchess – I KNOW how much you would love to see Adam sing Shady live!!
froggie – thanks for explaining your sign in – I always wondered!
sparkle–YW–I know it’s not Adam related, but it is music.
Kradamour has sent me many frogs for my Adamphernalia box, including one froggie calendar with a frog on a motorcycle like the cycle Adam was on for his calendar!!
Actually he is offering him a ride on someone else’s private jet and it is to and from London, on July 13 in between Queen shows.
Sorry if my earlier post was confusing!
LOL we need the one from HomePlanet with ummm tigger dancing.
Looking at the back and forth tweets, don’t think the Montreux thing is going to happen with Adam. Niles was really pressuring him! Adam didn’t give in, though.
I googled erotic smileys and adult smileys. Loads of funny ones but I was afraid of downloading or going on the sites.
uh oh…mils…did you see the Home Planet?
http://www.thehomeplanet.org/2012/06/guess-what-adam-did-to-his-hair-today/
I think he might have thought it would be a bit disrespectful towards Queen to run off in the middle of their three London concerts. Kind of like running over to a different party when one party has a lull. Or he wanted to maximize his Queen time. You don’t get to hang out with them every day either! Anyway, shame this does not seem to work out, hope there will be another chance.
Oops, my bad. I thought it was in California. I am confusing it with some other festival in Cali.
Gonna go check out what happened to the HAIR
BRB
The hair – now we have something really important to worry about.
Let’s just hope he doesn’t go back to the EMA hairstyle, please!
I’m sure he wants to be at his best at those Queen concerts, turquoisewaters – there’ll be a lot of people watching him – and some ready to pounce, no doubt.
OMG. Let the speculation begin…..
Everybody hold hands, and chant:
Step away from the shaver….step away from the shaver…No more Gump….No more Gump….No shaver….No shaver….
Ya know, if he does go over to Montreaux, it’s just business. It’s not an insult to Queen. But, it might be stressful to his voice and body.
Tee Hee. Poor Sauli. He’s gonna have a lot of Adam to take care of this summer. All that shopping for healthy food, making juice and smoothies, Throat Coat tea, finding safe and clever tattoo parlors, places to buy kale, so much to do!!
I’m chanting & holding, mils…I’m sure it’s already happened! He’s asleep right now with that new hair on his pillow…whatever it is!
Turquoisewaters. Totally agree with your post about “leaving the party”!
eta: hopefully he’s just freshening up the color. I would love long spikes of blonde…wolf-like, fire-like, sunrise-like, bolts of neon-like….but NOOOOOOO SHAVING!!!
Hopefully it was just for color. I DO NOT WANT SHAVED SIDES!!!
I love the EMA’s but it is jarring everytime I begin to watch and see those shaved sides.
Don’t throw
tomatoeskale, I would rather have the facial hair than those stupid bald sides.I’m a big believer in “if it ain’t broke-don’t fix it.”
This seems to have been the only hair style that virtually everyone has loved.
And most of Hollywood too. Look how many are sporting the pompadour these days! And, it’s not just a pompadour, it’s close cut sides, with just the top going way up high, with the front all “pomped”. I’ve seen it on everyone from Ricky Martin to a guy in One Direction. I see it every day.
But, nobody’s is higher or bigger than Adam’s. Ahem.
Maybe it’s time for a changer-oo.
I hope not.
Oh crap.
Maybe today was tat day too.
I’m thinking a crown for Queen. Or Freddy’s face. Or a Hamsa. Or, a skull.
Remember that time that Jennifer Hudson flew down to Texas for a private gig between rehearsal and actual live Oprah? And barely barely made it back because of weather?
I think it would be madness for Adam to jet off to Switzerland on the 13th after back-to-back concerts in London on the 11th and 12th, and then rush back for the 14th. He’s always said he needs lots of sleep and rest for his voice to be its best, and these London gigs are highly important. Plus, they’re coming back from more hop-and-skip travel and big performances.
I’m sure there will be other opportunities the way they all travel around.
He did say in an interview that he only got 3 hrs sleep before the EMAs, plus jetlag, and that it was stressful, and that lack of sleep makes his voice wonky sometimes. I think that’s why the pronounced vibrato. Thankfully, he still sounded great but many noticed it.
So glad he has a good head on his shoulders. I bet if he were anyone else, he would have jumped on that plane…..
glambotgram, I would never throw kale at you!!
I’m too busy eating it!!!
riskylady, I don’t think he’d do it either. Really. Too hard on his voice and body. And then perform hard for Queen again the next day. Nawww. Too much.
So, maybe Niles will pop up onstage with Queen? Wishful thinking.
There’s a pic over at AQD that was taken yesterday (with a nice-looking guy). Hair looks like it just needs a trim – fingers crossed. (And perhaps his Norwegian roots were just peeking through.)
It was mentioned the other day that Brian said something about doing a few songs with Adam, and now there is something about a woman joining them in Moscow?
yeah, glambotgram…that was me that mentioned the “few songs with Adam”
“We’ve been working in a studio for a month, even though we’re only doing a few numbers with Adam but we want everything to be as it should be.”
So I won’t be surprised if they have special guests. I guess like they were supposed to do at Sonisphere.
Zemfira also performed at that Moscow rock concert last year I believe. I read on a Russian blog that she would do one song, but I think maybe more than one. She’s very popular, so that’s a good move I think, plus takes the pressure off Adam – Queen concerts are longer than Adam’s I think. Maybe a duet, too, that would be awesome.
A post from the Home Planet:
(And I am NOT posting it here because it applies to any of us!!! But you know where that sh*t lives on other sites…)
Hand is getting better but not gonna push it. Quick comments:
LOVE that “wear the music” jewelry! Like it a lot more than the Pennyroyal jewelry, much more creative. Adam needs to work with her for a charity and sign something on the back. Just love it.
Oksana, so good to see you! I have an iPad and an HP Touchpad and love them but typing? not so much. And the bluetooth keyboards are just meh.
Froggie, so good to see you here, too! And so much fun to find cool frogs for you! “Our” concerts in Atlanta seem so long ago…RayGay!…and the conversation in the hotel lobby until way late into the night with noskerdycat…I wonder did we turn the desk clerk into an Adam stan? He was pretty interested!
Luval, you may have mentioned it at the time but that quote came from a translation of a Polish interview with Brian May (which may itself have been translated from English) posted on the home planet. I have a hard time believing that Adam would be in rehearsals for almost a month to do a few songs, plus these concerts have been advertised as Queen + Adam so people are expecting to see Adam front the whole show. Comments on the home planet post were wondering if it was a mistranslation – supposed to be a few shows instead of a few numbers. That seems to be the most likely explanation IMO.
According to a poster at AQD whose daughter works at the London salon, Adam had his hair “coloured” today.
Kradamour–The Atlanta concerts seem like eons ago…RL has a way of doing that. Big relief if our boy didn’t shave his hair…whew! Sweet Adam dreams to you all…zzzzzzzzz…
LadyNorth, what a wonderful post. It was brought up here recently wondering what it would be like, and how anyone could possibly catch up on all things Adam, for someone just finding him now. We will learn through your eyes and will help you as you navigate the glitter trail. Everyone is friendly and sharing here. If you have questions, please ask.
This is one crazy ass fandom, so hang on!
BTW This site is on US Eastern time.
maybe adam was thinking Montreaux was Canada too. Montreaux in Switzerland is very doable, a 1hr 45m flight and no jet lag from London…could do it in half a day!!
I’ve just voted in several catagories on the Billboard half year awards for Adam, write in ones where he’s not nominated. But wondering what video to put down for best video, whether to put BTIKM or NCOE?? we should all be putting the same to make it more effective.
fwachdr .. aka .. froggie, You’re welcome.
I’ll post that Brian May/Roger Taylor YT commercial again incase people missed that post.
Queen Greatest Video Hits II DVD [ High Definition ]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=US&feature=player_embedded&v=G-TEIht30-0
The more I learn about Brian May, the more I’m amazed with this wonderful human being. Brian loves our Adam and I’m sure he’ll have Adam’s back. (He pimps for Adam a lot.)
I’m happy that Adam is with Brian and Roger right now.
The heck with radio play or Trespassing is not #1 anymore. Adam is going to be iconic and a legend in the future. I just hope that I’ll be around to cherish it.
We all are riding along with his journey, right?
I have another YT video of Brian May sings with Pavarotti (R.I.P). Brian really shines through with his talents.
Love both of them.

Thanks nkd!
I wish I had found THIS site two months ago, when I had millions of questions… I have searched and learned mostly by myself and not been able to share it with anyone. But it’s good to see it’s a safe playground to ask if there’s anything I want to know It’d be fun to compare if my faves are the same as the others’! I haven’t saved so many interviews, mostly performances.
I noticed later that the time has to be east coast, because the time difference is actually 7 hours… On the site I was before, it was 10 hours.
HK fan, yes you got me right It wasn’t so easy to find here, but I used your tag and Adam’s name in google. But it wasn’t very easy even then… But it’s good not to give the straight link I think. I don’t like trolls and hostile anonymous.
Have to come back later in detail, now I am in a rush…
asifclueless, I totally agree with you about Brian. He is lovely, and his appreciation for Adam. Loved that video with Luciano, and also the commercial , thanks for sharing! I really would like to hear Adam sing “Too much love will kill you” in their concert, such a beautiful touching song!
Now runnin’ runnin’ runnin’ late…
LadyNorth .. You’re welcome.
Love to have you with us.
Exactly what I wish for.
Imagine Adam singing in this video or a duet with Brian, tributing to Freddie. That will go down in history as an EPIC!!!

Welcome Ladynorth and Josephine….Glad to have you join our comfy sofa here. It’s getting bigger and bigger. There are a few peeps permanently in the corner though, so there’s more space on the sofa. I’m looking at you Mils, luval and ??? You know who you are. Sometimes though, when we see a hawt pic of Adam, most of us have to go in the corner and it gets very crowded there.
Our London group meeting list for dinner July 10th at the Westfield Mall has been finalized. 37 of us, many from our blog here. It’s gonna be so much fun!!
Can’t believe I haven’t even fully unpacked from my last trip and now have to pack again!! Blame this on Adam Lambert! Took me right out of my comfort zone and flying all over the place.
Having fun though and meeting up with all my blog friends is the best part
WOW!!! … cher!!! 37 of you!!!
I envy you.
OMG!!… I was watching Ellen and Bieber was a guest.
He had light feet and his choreo dancing wasn’t bad. He did grab his crotch a lot.
I couldn’t help but LMAO because in my head I had Miss Chaos -So grab all your useless crotch all you want, its a big waste of time!
And riskylady –grow an eggplant!
Oooops, not Ellen show … I watched The View when Bieber was on.
Well!! .. I need to go packing and cleaning.
Where should I begin? Any tips, anybody?
I get distracted from one room to another and end up the whole messy house. How dreadful!!!!
Help me, please.
Hey everyone! Long time, no post! I can’t believe it’s been so long since I posted here. I’m sorry I went MIA. Between our daughter graduating high school (yay!), frail mother-in-law needing assistance (not so good), heavy work demands (including going up for a big promotion), and preparing for our family’s upcoming trip to Europe (!!), real life has been overwhelming. I’ve been managing to keep up with Adam happenings through twitter and occasionally managing to drop by here to read a page or two of comments, but there’s been no time for chatting or for catching up or keeping up.
Well, tonight I decided to make time. I felt discouraged about Adam’s numbers this evening and am so frustrated with radio, but coming here and reading your posts has lifted my heart and my spirits, so thank you. Like the rest of you, I want success for Adam that is commensurate with his enormous talent. We can’t predict now what level of success he will eventually attain, but I do believe that he will always have opportunities coming his way that will keep him in his beloved boots and jackets and a nice home. No matter what, he has me for life. I just want him to be happy and in love and to keep making music so that I can listen to that voice and see him perform, knowing that his heart is full.
And I CAN’T WAIT to see him with Queen in London! Two shows! One seated and one GA. I think a lot of us are doing two shows so that we can drink in as much of the experience as possible. Really looking forward to meeting many of you there! It was such fun meeting so many of you at the DC FRESHtival show. Now I’ll get to meet a bunch more of you in London!
You know I like to bring you all treats. But I’ve been away so long that I don’t have much to offer you that hasn’t already been posted here. Except for one thing. I don’t think I’ve seen this posted here yet. Enjoy:

Ok, it’s after 4:00am. Gotta go to bed. I’ve got TONS of stuff to do before we leave for our trip – in just 4 days!
Cher, 37, that’s very much! Unfortunately I’ll arrive in London 11th I did put some questioning into the Queen+Adam planning thread, so maybe someone going to London could give there some info…? I am traveling & concerting with my male company but figuring out options
I agree with all of you in hoping A stays away from hair shavers… This style is so gorgeous! Maybe just black coloring – I love those light highlights but maybe totally black is better with dramatic Queen?
I am selfish, but I really hope Adam is going to sing more than “a few” songs in London. Maybe it’s different in Eastern Europe concerts because they are festivals with many performers, am I right about this? London concerts are just for Queen+Adam.
I guess Adam may think Montreux is in North America. I am European and didn’t know it’s in Switzerland But anyway I’d believe he wants one evening vocal rest before the last Queen concert.
LadyNorth Love your Adam story. I wonder all the time what happened to me when that boy walked into the Idol auditions and started singing my all time favorite song. I was gone from the very beginning. I think sometimes about how much we love him just knowing him from afar. Imagine knowing him in RL. It is no wonder he has such loyal and amazing friends.
Cher 37, that will be one awesome dinner. I want to be there so bad, Queen+Adam, a dream come true. I just keep hoping for a professional DVD from the event.
cwm WOW my thought are putting me in the corner over that gif. Beautiful! Glad to see you popped in for a bit.
asif Thanks for all the Brian goodies, he is one amazing and very intelligent man. I love him more and more. And he fangirls just like the rest of us sometimes over “our boy”
Thanks a lot glambotgram! And thanks to all of you who have welcomed me so warmly and showed interest in my story I am too glambotgram wondering how it is possible to feel so strongly about someone you have never met! When I was digging in to Adam’s life in interviews etc., I started to feel like I almost knew him, so open he is, about good and the bad! So that’s probably what being a fan is about – it’s not just liking the music, it’s something else too. Not just daydreaming of some cute guy but really wanting everything good to happen to someone who really deserves it, because of who and what he is. Talented, charismatic, hardworking, nice humble person who is not using others to reach his goals. I feel very sad or bad, if someone says cruel things about him or predicts he’s going to fail… But when I listen to him in his interviews, things look more positive again. I bet the fans are more worried and sensitive than the master himself
I also found myself fallen in love with his love story . What a beautiful thing in the middle of today’s cynical world! The way he talked about it melted my heart. I am a realist, but romantic – why not take everything out of that feeling until reality bites!
Adamized, yes my addiction is not so burning hot storm anymore, but it certainly felt SO good at the beginning . I recognized the same feelings in other fans’ descriptions, so I know I am not alone I may continue my whole story later in the thread made for introducing the beginnings… It really changed my life into better.
What is very interesting is the fact that many of us are “29-year-olds” with family or even grandchildren. I find this fascinating on the phenomenal level too (what makes a mature “normal” person to go cuckoo for an artist). But I could not imagine myself in a fandom with only 15-year-olds screaming “Adam I love you, you are so sexyyy….” Ok, I do that too (internally ) but I also need some intellectual, more analytic challenge. And the core anyway is music, that’s my passion over other arts and things.

Welcome back, cwm!
Yes, Wilkes-Barre and Freshtival were wonderful opportunities to connect, so glad to have met you!
And the “gif”t you brought us…perfect. Saved. A distraction for many happy moments to come…merci!
ITTTTTTTA.
From Idol chatter:
Only a 4% drop is good news after the much larger declines of previous weeks. Hopefully the album can stabilize at this level for now, then get a boost from new promo/concerts after Adam returns to the US, or publicity from the Queen concerts, or improved airplay for NCOE or some other single, or a combination of those things.
Welcome to LadyNorth! I’m so happy to see new folks finding their way here and joining our community. We are growing exactly how I want us to, not with a huge flood of folks all at once, but one person at a time with thoughtful fans who appreciate the quality of the interactions here.
I don’t post often but am always lurking. Anyhoodle…I know a lot of folks worry about Adam and how he’s not quite clicking (at least in the US). Me, I’m not worried, and here’s why (besides the enormously talented part). I think part of it is the gay (like it or not) but I think MOST of it is the industry itself. The music industry (esp. Pop) is very fickle, contradictory and cyclical (mostly fickle). What’s popular now, won’t be later. That’s the way it is, has been, and always will be. We have had [in the relatively recent past] smart, intelligent, and talented, singers/musicians. Unfortunately, that’s not where we are today in popular music. That being said, I predict, when the tides inevitably change (and they will), that Adam will be ahead of the game and on top.
eywflyer, thanks for the more encouraging news. I can’t remember when the CD goes on sale in England. I hope we can get stats of that too when we need them. I just have a feeling that he is going to hit big in Europe, and keep growing all year long. I really hope that he can put out a radio friendly version of Shady or Cuckoo.
Sorry for single angst again, but, I just truly hope for “better” singles and that he doesn’t miss out on the Fever and Sleepwalker of Trespassing too.
It’s all shoulda coulda woulda….
Hi guys, I’m on a personal mission today to get some work done around my house. Had oil changed in car this morning, so trying to keep up my energy burst. I just checked in on Facebook and saw a posting from one of my friends on there. Apparently there is some kind of push from ALF to try to get Comcast to broadcast the Elton John concert. I’m not on the Fan Club, so I can’t check it out; but some of you who are members may want to see what that’s about and maybe bring that information here. Just sayin’.
Also, welcome LadyNorth. You fit in nicely here already.
cwm: It sounds like busy but exciting times for you. Good luck with everything and happy travels. Same goes for everybody who could arrange for a vacation that includes London!
