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!

    Just a quick drop-in for a little blossom of hope:
    I have been watching the iTunes #’s, Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
    Trespassing has been creeping up on iTunes Pop Albums, from #68 last weekend up to #55 now. NCOE video has moved up slightly too, still in the top 100 at #67 up from #75 last week.
    At Barnes&Noble, #58 in the top 100.
    Amazon has it listed in their Best Selling of 2012 and they also have a banner showing the UK import under the most highly rated.
    So, it has some legs and some steady sales.
    With his next batch of US performances and hopefully some buzz from Queen, the legs may get stronger.

    Love you,riskylady, for your above post. Every little bit of positive information makes me soooooo happy. Exciting times!

  4. luval says:

    Thanks for those numbers, riskylady. Although I’ve been saying lately I don’t care about the numbers, I guess I do care when I see a bit of good news!

  5. little dutchess says:

    I,too, feel like the glass is half full not half empty when I hear those details, risky lady And when you add to that all the positives from the upcoming Queen gigs, the superlatives from Brian and Roger wherever they go and the invite to be at Elton John’s gala tonite and it all seems pretty good to me. Bet he’s still pinching himself! Ha!

  6. little dutchess says:

    Kradamour I’m at work and called the Duke about Adam and Sam attending the white tie and tiara gala tonite at Elton John’s home in Windsor and explaining that “white tie” is even more formal than black tie. The Duke said ‘I never knew that, really?’ (as if many of us would know that off the top of our heads!!) And I told him it was true…that someone on the blog had looked it up (and I read the description to him.) ‘As a matter of fact, it was Kradamour’. He then chuckled and said he wasn’t surprised. Krads, we defer always to your authority!!! Luv you!

    Adam has on a black tie, Sam with no tie. Is that bad, or do rock stars get a break on protocol?

  8. firstimerob says:

    There is a photo on twitter with Adam and Sparro. Adam is not wearing a white tie. Thinking Can’t get it over here. Under Adam Lambert Elton John ball

    Didn’t Adam win it last year as well??/

  12. luval says:

    nkd…great radio interviews. I know sometimes he sounds raspy but to me in these interviews…clear as a bell.

    Oksana…I do believe your are correct. He did win last year. Now this billboard poll is important. Only a couple of days left.

    You made me curious, nkd so I did a little digging around and found this …

    Black Tie is Black Tie, White Tie is White Tie. They are not interchangable and they are not synonymous. Show up for a White Tie event wearing a Black Tie and you’ll probably be kicked out.

    So, there you have it. Hope he got to have an hor d’ourves or two because Elton must have thrown Adam out. Laugh

  14. firstimerob says:

    Check out Bill Clinton in 2008 with a black tie http://www.ejaf.com/Ourevents/WHITETIETIARA

  15. milwlovesadam says:

    Oh. So maybe he should just—

    Take it off!!

    Yup. I said it.

    Take it off!!

  16. milwlovesadam says:

    BTW. Those Scotland interviews are just fantastic. He is such a Bert! The CD is magnificent, 2012 is the year of Adam Lambert, he’s gonna be massive!!

  17. milwlovesadam says:

    Adam’s with Lulu. Here’s her most famous hit:

  18. HK fan says:

    I don’t think protocol is so strict in the UK nowadays. I think white tie and black ties are pretty interchangeable and mean the same thing, i.e. formal wear. Its just for the purpose of the party title, white tie and tiaras sounds much better than Black Ties and Tiaras!
    Lulu is looking so good in that photo, she must be in her 60’s.

  19. luval says:

    Yes, times have changed.

    and Tiaras and Ball Gowns for Ladies.

    Lulu is not wearing a tiara.

  20. JOJOSIE says:

    On another subject, I just checked out the station 102.5 concert in Des Moines and the schedule is up. Adam is on from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. so we will get a full hour. The concert closes with Train at 8:45 to 10:15. In the words of Sauli, YAH! Clap

    Adam Lambert Wins Must Follow Artist On Twitter

    Adam Lambert accepts the award for “Must Follow Artist On Twitter” at the 2012 O Music Awards.

    http://www.omusicawards.com/highlights/watch/793009/adam-lambert-wins-must-follow-artist-on-twitter

    Sweet acceptance speech, must be televised from the UK because of the clothes from BBC Breakfast show.
    Michelle was berting hard.

    Grin

  22. milwlovesadam says:

    Did Michelle just drop the info that Queen and Adam are coming here?????

    July 30th?????

    Rumor or truth Ms Collins, rumor or truth???

  23. asifclueless says:

    Good night All.

    Sorry to drive by posting.
    Haven’t really talked or communicated to you all lately.
    I have a thousand things to do, literally. Thousands of pounds to pack, throw away, donate … I call them shuff (stuff+sh*t)

    But all I do is sitting in front of my computer, checking all things Adam.
    I’m in deep doo doo. Need to get away for a while.
    If you see me back here again in a few hours, just ignore.

    Nothing can cure Adamaholic. Struggle

  24. luval says:

    mils…they were probably joking around but to me it sounded a bit more leaning toward the truth! But July 30th? Two days after WinStar? I’m going to google it just like Michelle said.

  25. luval says:

    haha google had nothing.

  26. turquoisewaters says:

    I’m not getting my hopes up yet… good thing I have low blood pressure.

  27. milwlovesadam says:

    Time will tell…

    asif, I have oodles and oodles of sh*t and stuff to do too. And yet, my stairs are all over this site today.

    Maybe it’s time to get back to my sh*it and stuff.

    Especially since Saturday will be, um, rather busy!!

  28. asifclueless says:

    Queen/Adam in the US – may be true
    July 30th – made up to throw us off

    Hope it is true. Brian and Roger might want to help Adam out. They have his back. And they want to show American public what a gem (Adam) they have but take it for granted.

    Adam deserves the best.

    OK, pulling a kradamour again.

    This one is good, DJ is berting, Also include the comment from Adam

    It definitely stays up.

    Grin

  31. milwlovesadam says:

    glambotgram, love that comment!!! Didn’t he folllow it with “it doesn’t take much” or something like that?

  32. HK fan says:

    I’m with you asif, I should be on my way to work now, followed by an end of year dinner, and we fly to the UK tonight and I haven’t done any packing yet……but here I am on the computer trying to carch a glimpse of Adam in a tux!!!

  33. turquoisewaters says:

    glambotgram: Talk about taking things out of context! You and mils make a great tag team! You better believe it.

    OTT: News from the Supreme Court! I did not see this coming at all.

  34. glambotgram says:

    Queen in the US? my heart can’t take it. If it happens it will probably be on the west coast. No chance it will be anywhere near me.

    Mils loved your comments at Home Planet, what is with the Kris argument there, Geez silly people!

  35. glambotgram says:

    Sam Sparro is really wearing a lobster necklace? I thought it was a ruffle in the other picture,

    http://instagram.com/p/Mb0_5cIgxF/

  36. milwlovesadam says:

    glambotgram, I think some people at some sites don’t go anywhere else for Adam news. Imagine that!

    And, that lobster necklace is all kinds of gorgeous. Funny, when I wear my food it doesn’t quite look the same!

    As in, “why, Mils, did you have spaghetti for dinner?”

    “Why, yes, how can you tell?”

    LOL. Guess he left the lobster bib at home! That would have been a whole different kind of white tie!

  37. glambotgram says:

    LOL mils

    Someone take the stupid watermark out of his mouth. Liking the shirt!

  40. milwlovesadam says:

    Would somebody just please put Adam on Glee already?

    I swear if Chris Colfer is at that party too, it’s just gonna be too much for me to take!

  41. luval says:

    Looks like nobody has a white tie on.

    I wish Adam just one more time let the sides of his hair grow out so he can slick it back.

    http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTc78eCh4UphNLARwqv-fKjU_-bczXPOrjqZxjTlsXrre_Ro-lh

  42. luval says:

    And now speculation about what he’ll wear ! In that In Demand interview he says he’ll actually be a little more theatrical (in what he will wear) than lately. hmmmmm What could that be?

  43. milwlovesadam says:

    luval, I’m with you as always about the hair.

    He’s mentioned high boots too.

    I’m picturing some kind of long coat, like Sleepwalker and like the Gareth Pugh.

    Lots of drama.

  44. luval says:

    yes,yes, yes….the Sleepwalker coat. Easy to pack. Bazillions of peeps really haven’t seen it. I’d like some color back in that hair too…blue streaks…something like that. I want my crazy, fierce, glam Adam back on stage if only for 6 shows.

    btw …love Brian May’s long curly mane.

  45. riskylady says:

    Hmmmm. The Queen Extravaganza tour apparantly wraps up in Edmonton, Canada on July 3. By the time Adam gets back, does his scheduled gigs, to the end of July, would be an appropriate amount of time later for a real Queen appearance. I believe it is possible. Would still give Adam time for a few weeks of promo on the way to Japan. Hmmmm. {{strokes chin}}

  46. Kradamour says:

    I am in and out – mostly out my army son is visiting and this is the last time I will see him before he leaves for Afghanistan, so even Adam takes a back seat to that. Plus today is my mother’s birthday. Not posting but enjoying!

    sistasif…”shuff”! (nods understandingly). The last time we moved, we moved 17,000 pounds of shuff after throwing/giving away another half that. Books are very heavy, btw. Sending good packing karma to you! mwah!

    jojosie, good to know the schedule for Des Moines. Thanks for posting it. (One month from today! woot!)

    Queen in the US? Hmmm…that would be a tough call. I don’t particularly like Queen, but…
    Thinking

    Love Sam Sparro! The word “dapper” always comes to mind when I think of him. I bought his album when Adam tweeted about it long ago. One of the few albums I actually listen to.

    little dutchess, what a lovely post that mentioned me! I am so glad that I was able to spend more time in DC wtih you and the duke, our very own Adam Royalty!

    I agree with the post above that “white tie and tiara” was probably just a fun way to title the event. Photos show short dresses and all manner of male attire. Adam’s jacket fits to perfection, but I am not loving the exaggerated break in the slacks, it doesn’t go with the perfect tailoring of the jacket. So I’ll just look at photos of the waist up.
    Grin

    Ron, was it you who posted about Cher in NYC? I still dream of a Cher/Adam collaboration of some sort. She is so totally her own person and that voice just melts me. The video on the battleship is probably my favorite music video EVER!

    (Husband says the ship’s command got into big trouble over it.)

    Having computer troubles and can’t watch videos!!!!!
    Cry Cry Cry
    But don’t really have time, so I’ll come back to them after son leaves.

    G’nite, peeps!
    Sweet Adam dreams!
    Mwah!
    Heart

  47. milwlovesadam says:

    Luval, I don’t think he’d wear the actual Sleepwalker or the Pugh. I’m thinking he will wear something LIKE them!

    I also await the return of fierce Adam. Ahem. The mere thought of this is, um, stimulating, to say the least.

    And, sorry, honey, Brian’s hair is just a tad too straggly for my taste. But, it’s just rock and roll. Not gonna sweat it. He’s one of the best guitar players in the world. So, I really couldn’t give two hoots what he looks like. My eyes will be riveted on you know who!

  48. milwlovesadam says:

    Cher, If I Could Turn Back Time, on the battleship

  49. luval says:

    Did most of you see that interview with Queen when they arrived in Moscow with the Russian reporter talking? You can kind of hear Brian saying “wait until you hear our lead singer Adam Lambert” and other things but I couldn’t make it out. It’s on AQD but I couldn’t bring it over here.

    The way Adam has been talking about a possible tour it really seems it’s highly unlikely until next year. Lots of time after Japan in August to guest with Queen in the fall somewhere in the USA.

    And I’m getting nervous all of a sudden about Saturday!
