    good morning!

    glambotgram…Oh I so love the beginning of IIHY . IMO perfect way to start the show.

    I LOVE THAT POSE AT THE END OF FYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Anyone have a quick pic of it? And did I say how much I love it?

    luval for you
    http://twitpic.com/c67eee

    ETA I never noticed before, does that jacket have detatchable sleeves?

  6. luval says:
    02/23/2013 at 12:07 pm

    thanks for that pic, glambotgram. I think that’s the pose from the end of Trespassing. The end of FYE is where he “strikes a pose” with the top hat on. Keep looking..LOL!!

    Anyway, it does look like the sleeves are detachable. That way he has a vest if need be! Maybe that’s the secret…all of his clothes are detachable in some way so he can mix and match!

    eta: looked again at the underarm…I think some jackets are made with an “air pocket” opening…takes care of heat & sweat.

    Yes, ron. That one looks like just about at the end. So Cabaret-ish (as you’ve said)!

    I think he is just loving all this new production, choreo…everything ….and it shows! He’s in his element.

    Velcommen bienvenue velcom, friende, estrange, stranger,… a Cabaret, au Cabaret, to Cabaret!!

    ( Forgive the spelling )

    OMG. I’ve been away for a few days and who knew that Adam is in Japan by way of Berlin? Muwahhaha.!!!

    I keep expecting to see Sally Bowles pop up, or Joel Grey!!

    Love love love the choreo, the costumes, the synchronicity of it all.

    How in the world did they get so tight so fast?

    So far, Chokehold is back to killing me. Adam went to Napa on this one, folks. Right back to Napa. OMG. ( Glamtowel please…)

    And some of our favorite vid people are back, I’m waving at riddle601b.

    Is there any other male out there doing choreo like this in a pop show? Nope. Bruno does some choreo, but not like this, baby!

    TLKC, what browser are you using? I’m on Chrome and seeing the videos fine. Anyone else seeing this problem?

    O
    M
    G

    I get it ( slaps forehead ) . I get it.

    Adam is so dramatic. So drama-filled.

    He is the Master of ceremonies with FYE. He is “hosting” the show, and introducing us to the cabaret show for the night. His emphatic, super clear enunciation of every single syllable and his drama poses are so very Master of Ceremonies.

    Cabaret indeed.

    And that final pose? Need that poster sized for our Asian annex.

    ( Goes to Home Depot. Needs building supplies. AGAIN ).

    Nice symmetry seeing IIHY at the front of the show, after seeing it at the end so many times during Glam Nation.

    I just updated my Adobe Flash because I was having stuttering problems with the videos. Then I rebooted (or you can unplug, then plug back in) the computer. It worked.

    That’s it too, Glambotgram! Thanks to both of you.

    mils They must have been rehearsing when I thought they were partying and/or doing nothing before the start of the tour. Laugh I almost want to tweet Johnny and tell him how much better he’s doing. ….I said almost….

    HOLY CANNOLI, glambot!!!! That picture is the essence of Adam, and the expression on his face is just priceless, it’s like total peace and happiness and love of being right where he is there. Poster material, for sure!!!

    And, I so agree with mils, this shows that they worked on FYE and made it so much better. The intro to the song is wonderful. Gahhhh. I cannot even imagine what Finland will be like: A dreamlike sequence of nirvana-esque presentations until the lights go off and we realize it’s over???? Universe, you must not deprive America of this bounty!

    I was in tears watching the stream last night. It’s beautiful.

  21. milwlovesadam says:
    02/23/2013 at 2:07 pm

    Speaking of symmetry, he strikes the pose at the end of FYE and at the end of Shady to end the show.

    Oh Adam.

  22. jlurksacto says:
    02/23/2013 at 2:23 pm

    I thought the lightning bolt on the back of Adam’s blue jacket was black, but it’s see-through. Note the photo.

  23. TLKC says:
    02/23/2013 at 2:33 pm

    It’s okay now! Thanks for the advice glambotgram and eywflyer.

    Have to admit I was so Adam-deprived that I went to another site and watched a few videos there before checking back here. Everything is working now and I have seen all of the Tokyo #3 – the first videos I could find.

    Wowza.

    Parking here for a bit now!

  24. luval says:
    02/23/2013 at 2:55 pm

    I thought that lightning bolt was solid too. Looks like mesh or something. Another bit of ingenious innovation to help out with the sweat on stage IMO.

  25. TLKC says:
    02/23/2013 at 3:18 pm

    Woo hoo! Loving it. I have only watched the “heart” section, FYE and Fever but YAY! just YAY!

    The slow songs are heartbreakingly beautiful. This FYE is not my favourite but it does underline that Adam would be perfect for the MC in Cabaret, a role that he was made for. I would also love to see him play the lead in Ebb and Kander’s Kiss of the Spiderwoman.

    The top hat is a cabaret cliche but there is a moment in FYE where I feel that no one has ever worn it quite that way before.

  26. TLKC says:
    02/23/2013 at 3:38 pm

    mils are you really going to Home Depot for real supplies or are you building another addition to the corner?

  27. milwlovesadam says:
    02/23/2013 at 3:49 pm

    LOL TLKC!!

    Fortunately, or unfortunately, it’s both!

    This has not been an easy season on Mils’ house or budget, let’s just put it that way…unexpected expenses…

    Remember “Calgon take me away?” Yea, “Adam take me away.”

  28. TLKC says:
    02/23/2013 at 3:56 pm

    LOL you dingbat! Have you been bouncing around your house to Adam’s music so much that the foundation is cracking? No need to ask you if the earth moved, is there?

  29. nkd says:
    02/23/2013 at 4:52 pm

    Adam was in black not blue last night. The lightening bolt on the black jacket is sheer! I didn’t even notice the lightening bolt when watching. Sometimes the blue lights make it appear a bit blue.

  30. milwlovesadam says:
    02/23/2013 at 5:17 pm

    Oh honey, the earth moves… Blush

    But, seriously, you know how things come in threes? Well, I’m into my third set of three this winter when it comes to my house…furnace, plumbing, sewer, etc. Unreal. What’s next?

    I’m glad Adam’s on tour so far away. I couldn’t afford him right now! Oh. Who am I kidding? There’s always Adam money. I’ll just skip having good lights, heat and plumbing. Who needs ’em anyway?

  31. milwlovesadam says:
    02/23/2013 at 6:47 pm

    I really do think Adam was born to play the emcee in Cabaret. IMO that is just about the only role/play I think he should ever do if he does do Broadway. With Megan Hilty as Sally Bowles.

    I don’t know, to me, it looks like the blue suit but the lights make it appear black sometimes. In some of the videos and pictures it is really blue. Question

    The shirt he is wearing under is black/yellow.
    And that blue suit is electric blue, I don’t think it could ever look black!

  35. glambotgram says:
    02/23/2013 at 7:45 pm

    LOl I thought you meant the suit was black, not that the shirt was black, and I thought I was crazy for thinking it was the blue one.
    On the other hand the suit does look really black at times. LOL

  36. milwlovesadam says:
    02/23/2013 at 7:49 pm

    Blue, black, whatever. It doesn’t look like anything underneath.

    Have we come to any conclusion on the nob, snap, CR, piercing controversy?

    Cuz I don’t see evidence of anything from this show.

    Not that I’ve looked.

  37. glambotgram says:
    02/23/2013 at 7:58 pm

    He wore that long damn tunic so we couldn’t see anymore

    I think he has suits of many colors. Some of them may be from the NCOE video. Which means there are still yellow and red ones out there..

  43. Ron says:
    02/23/2013 at 9:02 pm

    nkd, if you’re still here. I just phoned you and it went to voice mail. I wasn’t going to leave a message for you to call me back.

    Okay to phone again?

    Or, is it that you saw that it was me and didn’t want to answer? Smile

  44. nkd says:
    02/23/2013 at 9:23 pm

    You can certainly call Ron, but I didn’t hear it ring.

  45. Ron says:

    I don’t think that you’re home.

    Weird about the suit,in that 2nd picture Glambotgram posted it definitely looks black…but it can’t be as he’s only worn that black and yeelow shirt to that one show, and in the other pics its definitely the bright blue suit.
    And in that other photo, it did look like the lightening bolt was see through as you could see both the black and yellow of the t-shirt through. Previously he has only worn plain black under it which must be why we assumed it was black.

    And Mils, there isn’t a red and yellow suit, Adam said in an interview or something that it was done by computer or something changing the colour.
