After a very busy couple of weeks of promo and radio concerts following the release of “Trespassing” on May 15, Adam will head to London early this month to begin preparations for his upcoming concerts with Queen. He will do some album promo and a couple of live performances in the UK as well, where Trespassing is set for a July 2 release date. One of these shows is the “Rays of Sunshine” charity event at the very prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London. Adam will also return briefly to the US for a free radio concert in San Francisco on June 24.

Our featured photo (Brian Ach – Getty Images) for this month shows Adam in a very happy mood while performing at the KTUPhoria radio concert. Enjoy the chat!

    This is as unguarded a moment as anyone will ever see me. Except for Gil.

    And, jlurksacto

    Ron, I thought you could be trusted to keep a secret.

    Oops! Well, the cat’s out of the bag now. ROTFL

    So I had another what-the-hell-was-I-thinking-last-night moment again! Laugh

    luval emailed this morning to say she’s never heard of that song before. I don’t blame her … I made it unrecognizable! It’s really a throw-away, happy go lucky, upbeat song from “Gypsy” that I turned into a dirge! Smile

    Oh well, no more singing videos from me, I promise! The sound is marginally better than some of the dinners we’ve shared here. It’s so muddy! The tiny little speakers in my webcam can’t possibly capture the full, rich, lushness of my wobbly vibrato exquisite tones. ROTFL

    No Adam sightings?! Is he still sleeping in London or has he followed the concert equipment to Kiev? Very glad the show is set and that he has these few days to rest and prepare for the show. I’m excited for him for this performance but find myself feeling nervous about the London shows and I’m not sure why I feel that way. IDK

    I think we’re all a little nervous, Ron. So much could be at stake! and there are still the trolls who blame Adam for trying to fill whats-his-name’s shoes. It is a HUGE introduction for peeps in Europe who have not heard or heard of Adam.
    Heh
    He’ll slay it, of course, but we’d all be crazy to be complacent (that ain’t what we do best, anyway…not a lot of complacency here in the sandbox…our trademark is angst and speculation!)

    I believe Adam has a morning show or something in Manchester tomorrow morning, and I would assume some more practice time with Queen, and one could only hope with Elton too. Probably off to Kiev on the 29th.

    Ron, I love your late night “what-the-hell-was-I-thinking-last-night” moments and the resulting videos. I wish you and Gil a wonderful anniversary and many more years together! Kiss

    I don’t sing, but my “gift” is scrapbooking. Have you thought about taking some of the most special photos from the 35 years you and Gil have spent together and putting them in a photo album with some hand-written journalling? You could even include a pocket-sleeve for a CD of your vocal tribute the night of the party!

    Hi TexasWannaHoldEm!

    You’re so sweet. What a thoughtful idea! Truth be known though, there are very, very few photos of the two of us. Neither one of us is what you’d call a shutterbug so the thought of taking photos never occurs to us. Rather than a scrapbook, if I put something together, it would be more like a pamphlet. Big Smile

    Here though are two rare exceptions. I forgot I had this first one on the computer.

    35 years ago while dating.

    OMG!! Look at that round, fat face of mine! I look like Charlie Brown with hair … and that hair!! What the hell did he ever see in me?!?? He should have turned and run the other way!

    35 Years Later!

    Well, that was then and this is now … 6 months ago. (sigh)

    http://pic100.picturetrail.com/VOL629/13192141/24146615/403193829.jpg

    Glad I managed to lose a few pounds through the years. Laugh

  7. Ceddies says:

    Oh, Ron. Thank you so much for the glimpse into your private life. I’m so thankful that you and Gil have each other. You’re a great-looking couple. There’s love and kindness in those eyes. 35 years is a long, long time. Your song is beautiful and beautifully done. I remembered the song (from somewhere deep in the recesses of my brain) but had forgotten about it. Announce Happy Anniversary to both of you!!!! Heart Rose Rainbow Present Clover Drink Cake Party

  8. riskylady says:

    Ron, what a handsome couple, then and now! Congratulations and Happy Anniversary. Many, many would envy you your 35 years together in today’s world. Love your late-night song revelations, too! In Love Big Smile

  9. turquoisewaters says:

    Ron: You bring me to tears with these photos. A relationship that is going strong after so many years is a very special and beautiful thing. I am glad you found somewhere to grow old and someone to grow old with – to borrow some lyrics from OOL. Happy Anniversary to both of you!

  10. cher says:

    rs is on a Scandinavian cruise at the moment and asked me to post this here for her:

    I have the Adam Lambert story of the week, if not the year. So here I am in a little town in the Faroe Islands, literally in the middle of nowhere, wandering around town. I saw this strange sculpture and I asked this young man who was walking by if he knew the meaning of it. We chatted a while about this place and the people and it’s culture, and we got around to talking about what there is to do here. He talked about a big rock concert where the Gibb brother who recently died was here last year and even though he was so sick, he gave his all, and the people loved him so much. Anyway he threw out some names of other pop artists who had been here, and he sang some of their songs so I would recognize them. He was so cute. He was wearing a John Lennon t-shirt and I said that he is my generation. Then I mentioned Queen and that I am going to see them in London. He laughed and said that Queen is his generation. At first he mentioned Paul Rogers, and I said, no, Adam Lambert is singing with him. His eyes lit up and he said, Oh, from American Idol! He has a great voice!

    So out here on a desolate island in the North Atlantic there is a young man who knows Adam and now knows that he will be singing with Queen. Of course, he has been working in Norway for 3years, so he might have heard of him from there.

  11. LadyNorth says:

    Congratulations Ron for your Anniversary! 35 years is such a beautiful journey together. Lots of happiness for your days to come! Cake

    Poor Adam, having a morning thing tomorrow 6 a.m. right after the jet lagThinking I hope he is not burning his candle from both ends… I wish he could concentrate only on Queen on 30th-14th. The album will be released on 9th, so not much hope for restingThinking I think I’ll buy UK TP version from London Big Smile

    I have felt jet lagged today without even seeing an airplane – so tired, had a bad night Dazed Sleepy I just crawled thru the twitter but don’t remember much. The news was good I think – NCOE #8 in Poland, Hot Stuff still spreading all over, no mentions of MF word… Shoshanna and Adam driving through the countryside, seeing cows Laugh Cow Cow Cow

    Sounds like Sauli is joining the Queen tour – maybe the private jet will pick him up on the way to Ukraine Grin Airplane

    Sorry, I am useless today Ghost Yawn

  12. LadyNorth says:

    Cher, that was an interesting story by rs! There is Adam knowledge in surprising places Smile . It’s certainly exotic place to visit… But never been myself.

  15. luval says:

    As I mentioned very early this morning I heard WWFM on my drive into work. I e-mailed the dj, thanked him & requested NCOE and got this answer:

    Glad you heard it! Thanks for the request for his new one! Smile

    At least he’s aware “there is a new one”.

  16. milwlovesadam says:

    Hi, catching up after a couple of very busy days.

    rs, loved your story.

    Ron, you are so wonderful, and part of a true couple that shows what long term love really is. And, I just love your picture from 35 years ago. It’s a snapshot of the era. The hair, the stache, the rotary orange phone, heck, even the plaid sofa!!

  17. firstimerob says:

    Heard NCOE in Trader Joe’s today.

  18. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    OMG, Ron! Your Gil looks so much like one of my favorite TV actors in the “then” photo – Eric McCormack!! I have to say, you are two very, very handsome men!

    Thanks so much for trusting us with these glimpses into your private life, “hot stuff”! Cool

  19. Teri63 says:

    Wow, just checking in and saw the awesome post by rs and the lovely then-and-now photos of Ron and his partner. rs, how fun that must have been to make that Adam connection in the far corners of the world. It just goes to show how far-reaching his talent really is! Ron, how handsome you both are! Congratulations on a lifetime of happiness together!

    Just a few more days until Queen Date #1. I can’t wait! I’ve already put my family on alert that I won’t be much of a spouse or mother that day.

    I was thinking that today about Shoshanna(I know it has been said here before) She does awesome things with him, photo shoots, concerts, interviews, shopping, etc. But I would have given just about anything for that lovely ride through the English countryside today to just relax and talk. AAAHHH

    ETA Of course shopping wouldn’t be half bad either. “Hey Adam Try on these leather laces, they will look really good , Hmm Too tight? can’t lace them up? I can help with that Wink

    But I would have given just about anything for that lovely ride through the English countryside today to just relax and talk.

    Exactly, glambotgram. My favorite interviews are the ones where Adam and the interviewer just sit and have a conversation…Adam is so thoughtful and articulate, not to mention his gorgeous voice (speaking as well as singing) and his facial expressions are so expressive…and that laugh!
    sigh.
    Rose
    Okay, back to reality…

  27. Kradamour says:

    thanks for that link to the After Elton Hot 100!
    So our boy is #10…woot! But I didn’t love the photo…he looked much older than recent photos. With so many gorgeous ones out there, how did they find that one? Oh, well. (Picky, picky!) But we know that we could have found a hundred better ones if they had only asked us!

    and I liked this, in spite of the error:

    82. Kris Allen
    We can’t begrudge his American Idol season seven win over Adam Lambert. Great musicianship, unassuming attitude, sheepish charm… and that perfect parallelogram mouth. We could watch him sing for hours.

  28. milwlovesadam says:

    Parallelogram?

    Is that a compliment? LOL

    I do think Kris is a cutie-pie. But HAWT? Just noes. Nope.

    Our guy has that all wrapped up.

    Someone posted this on MJs. From Twitter – hope it’s true!

    Got this off twitter so don’t have the link, maybe someone can provide it from the source…sorry. But here is some sales information from Japan. Japan cd sales (PHYSICAL sales ONLY-no digital sales included) Usher 11,443 total, Adam 11,531 total. KC ~7k total.

  31. nkd says:

    This stream is working for the BBC Breakfast show.
    http://tvpc.com/Channel.php?ChannelID=3

    Adam probably on in about an hour and a half?, maybe.

  32. HK fan says:

    I just looked at the top 50 100 men, agree with kradamour, not a good photo at all. I haven’t heard of a lot of those guys, there’s a few that look pretty hot, most aren’t imo though. I don’t find Chris Colfer, Darren Criss,michael shum or NPH at all hot, cute maybe but not hot…..

  33. turquoisewaters says:

    Yep, barely looks like Adam. About 3/4 of the guys are clearly posing for their picture, for the rest they seemed to have pulled the first picture they came across.
    Let’s see if I can hold on until Adam is on. Nothing like breakfast TV after midnight to put me to sleep.

  34. HK fan says:

    is anyone getting that livestream to work?????

  35. turquoisewaters says:

    I use this one: http://tvpc.com/Channel.php?ChannelID=8902
    They just announced Adam being on before 9am. (next half hour)

  36. turquoisewaters says:

    If the direct link does not work, you can go to tvpc.com, then Live TV, then scroll down and find United Kingdom BBC 1.

  37. HK fan says:

    Got it to work, Adam looked and sounded gorgeous, the 2 presenters were pretty crap though. Not nearly as good as Lorraine whatshername on the other breakfast tv programme during the first era.

    and does Adam realise Manchester is not in Ireland???

  38. turquoisewaters says:

    Well, I’d say he was very cute and looked real good (suit with teal leopard print shirt). The anchors were very positive. At one point they asked how come he gets to sing with Queen, noticing that NCOE does not sound much like queen. Adam answered that well though by saying he can sing more than one genre. Would have been nice if they had had a tiny clip from the EMAs. -Good night all.

  39. asifclueless says:

    O-M-G!!! Charm!! Charm!! Charm!!
    Articulate, eloquent, intelligent, gorgeous, and classy.

    For once I got to see Adam live on TV without staying up til 3:00 am in the morning.

    I watched the download of the morning show. Excellent quality! Adam managed (again) to clarify things very well, a nice package of knowledge about him Smile I hope people are curious and google EMA videos, a short clip would have been nice. To show his many genres of music.

    He managed to look so good so early (with jet lag?) – how he does it??

    He said the concert with Elton is in Poland (but it is in Ukraine) – lets hope he ends up in the right country Grin I am counting on Brian and Roger…

    Could someone tell how ustreaming works? Do I just click the link at the right time and hope to get a good dinner? Is there any other advice to help it? Powerful laptop? Thanks Smile I know what I am going to do on Saturday evening at 8 p.m…
