“I’ve got a whole new set-list and it’ll be a completely different vibe.”

Shout it out Adam! Glamberts around the world cannot wait. And it’s Cape Town that will have the distinction of experiencing a couple of firsts: first time that Adam has performed in South Africa and first time for the new “vibe” show. He will be performing in the Grand Arena at the GrandWest Casino in Cape Town. According to a report on twitter, the concert was SOLD OUT!

The set is said to be 90 minutes and the Glamily now includes dancers Terrance Spencer and Johnny Rice. It will be interesting to see what songs have been chosen and what the dancers will add to the show.

The concert opens with local artist, Toya DeLazy at 8 PM SAST (1 PM EST, 10 AM PDT) so expect Adam to be on around 9 PMish.

    I think the background singers’ costumes were also a great improvement over the leggings-tunic style. Much more diva. I love the colors with all the electric blue, silver, and magenta. Reminds me of the 70s and 80s.

  2. HK fan says:

    Where’s all the videos???

  3. turquoisewaters says:

    HK fan: I’m waiting too. There simply MUST be video of this show. Let’s go, Cape Town!

  4. ultimathule says:

    Waiting, too.

  5. rs says:

    My dream version of Underneath:

    Nearly acapela with just Brian to accompany him, no back-up singers, very angst-filled (I can’t wait for it to come on when I listen to the cd)

    ON STAGE AT THE GRAMMYS Fingers Crossed

  6. rs says:

    Do I see that Tommy is blond again or is it just the lighting? If so, I like it!

  7. ultimathule says:

    Looks blondish – but my eyes were elsewhere. Guess I’ll have to go back and look.

  8. rs says:

    You ladies in the Western hemisphere are up very late. It is morning here (and in South Africa) and my problem is that I need to pull myself away from the computer in order to start my day. lol

  9. HK fan says:

    Another full Underneath, different angle, and Broken English

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO3wn68qhfU&feature=youtu.be

  10. LadyNorth says:

    HK fan, that video was such a masterpiece, so close and angles changing with professional fading… And both songs – breathtaking. I am speechless.

    Here is WWFM from the same person
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HO93L6QmoE8&feature=youtu.be

  11. HK fan says:

    wow, that Underneath I just posted, great quality, and super close, with different angles. Don’t know how they did that. Definitely worth uploading up top. Think the same person also has WWFM, so fingers crossed there’s more to come.

  12. cwm says:

    OMG that Underneath and Broken English video is perfect. Underneath is heartbreaking and beautiful, and it enriches the song so much to be able to see him when he sings it. And Broken English was perfect as well.

    Just because it’s worth posting again, here it is:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kO3wn68qhfU&feature=youtu.be

    I think she got such great closeups and different angles because she was simply focused on the jumbotron for the entire song and the jumbotron cameras did a great job.

  13. cwm says:

    NCOE is now up too. Different videographer.

    Czerina Patel @czerina
    Tho’ audience very white,from 5yr olds to seniors,able to disabled,straight to gay(esp ,much of social spectrum at #adamlambert concert!

    Once I read an interview but I can’t recall who, it is one of the persons who interviewed Adam..(I think)… I am not sure where.He said that Adam’s music tends to appeal to a more “white” audience.. and that is why it is harder for him to break through in the US that is more of a melting pot in certain areas….
    I don’t know if that is true… Me myself, I am Asian but I have to admit that I have lived a part of my life in a “white”environment…
    But what about e.g.the Asians in Japan and other Asian countries ?

  15. rs says:

    OMFG I am dying here. I have never seen such emotion from Adam while singing (and so close up thanks to the jumbotron’s beautiful work). And the emotion was in his voice, not just on his face. I don’t know how he could continue after that, but you could tell that it carried over into BE. I was just remembering Kara telling him that she wasn’t “feeling” it, that he was just acting and not connecting with the song. Well, I hope that she can hear him now. She would be on the floor in the corner with the rest of us.

  16. cwm says:

    I agree, rs. His vocal in Underneath is powered with emotion. It’s incredible. So raw and vulnerable. You can see it on his face and hear it in his voice. The catch in his voice at 3:55 and the tremor in his voice for the last phrase are a dead giveaway. He sounds like he’s on the verge of crying. He totally connected with the song. I have a feeling that, like Soaked in GNT, this one is only going to get better and better and more and more powerful as time goes on.

  17. LadyNorth says:

    But what about e.g.the Asians in Japan and other Asian countries?

    Axxxel, I can’t tell about the U.S., but in Japan Western music, especially rock, has been very popular for decades. There “white culture” is different and exciting, but in U.S. some sub cultures might want to develop their own tastes and likes.

  18. AL says:

    Posted some vids up top. More should be coming soon. Post any good ones that you find and I’ll embed the best ones.
    G’nite all! One more listen to “Underneath” and then to Yawn Sleepy

  19. cwm says:
  20. rs says:

    I MUST tear myself away from the computer and get on with my day. Have a good night everyone in NA, a good day LadyNorth, and a good evening HK Fanand Axxxel

    And, of course BB, enjoy your day off in beautiful Capetown. You deserve it after the joy you gave them last night.

  21. cwm says:

    You know, this show in Cape Town very much has the feeling of a tour show, not just another one-off. I really feel like this is the start of something bigger. Experiencing this show reminds me of the first night of the Glam Nation Tour when we were all mesmerized by the set, the costumes, the lighting, and the choreography for the first time.

  22. cwm says:

    I just got a chance to watch the IIHY/NL/Cuckoo vid up top for the first time. Despite the fact that it’s out of sync, that was a lot of fun to watch. The introduction of the straightjacket into Cuckoo is inspired and I love what they do with it – all of the arm flapping and strap flying is hilarious.

  23. LadyNorth says:

    cwm I didn’t experience GNT but I felt the same, this was a real show with capital S.

    And now I really have to go on my duties like rs, more later!

  24. cwm says:

    Ok, just watched PTL above. LOVED the choreography! So fierce! I’m so happy to see Adam doing choreographed dancing with dancers again! It just does *something* to me. That vid is terribly out-of-synch tho, so really looking forward to that one getting synched up or some new in-synch vids getting posted.

  25. luval says:

    Talk about sexier in person…when I went to Fantasy Springs recently I experienced that more than other shows! So glad my brother saw that too.

    WWFM right now in the car! Great way to start my day!

  26. glambotgram says:

    Good Morning, ALL, That new Underneath is beautiful and BE too. Some of the pictures posted really look professional, hope we get more of those. I wonder if our boy is out and about sightseeing right now.

    Here is another CUCKOO/NCOE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_kXFPIhls0&feature=youtu.be

  27. rs says:

    I have a feeling that, like Soaked in GNT, this one is only going to get better and better and more and more powerful as time goes on.

    cwm, it might get stronger and more polished as time goes on, but the raw emotion and vulnerability that came through from singing this song live for the first time can’t quite ever repeat itself. I feel so priveleged to have seen, and heard it.

  28. rs says:

    He’s “cocked” and he’s ready to go! (see min 1:01) lol.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_kXFPIhls0&feature=youtu.be

    Gotta love him.
    I have given up saying that I can’t love him or his voice any more. He just keeps giving more and more amd more……

    That Cuckoo was so great Grin Crazy fun choreography… I am so enjoying this concert!

    Unbelieveable video of Underneath / Broken English. I want to thank the person who took it. Started the day off crying. So sad and yet so gorgeous, I don’t know what to say.

  35. TLKC says:

    Lurking here watching videos. Speechless.

  36. LadyNorth says:

    This is yet another version of Underneath and BE (by Madeliefies). It can’t beat the wonderful close vid, but shows more body language in BE Smile (~6:50 =>)

  42. dcglam says:

    I really like the reggae vibe to OOl.

    Me, too — I’m loving this!! Adam is such a natural with this reggae genre of music — fits him perfectly. Of course, he truly is a natural with almost all types of musical genres. His versatility never ceases to amaze. So far, this OOL/Is This Love video is my favorite from the concert. In Love

    Sorry for being a post ho. It’s a lot easier when things are happening on the same time zone, easier to be in sync. I’ve been reading the twitter list of the show, so wonderful to read how amazed peeps still are Big Smile

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BCT-FeT59k&feature=youtu.be

    Have we seen these jeans before fitting tighter? Could he have just pulled them out of his closet without trying them on?

  47. LadyNorth says:
  48. dcglam says:

    Could he have just pulled them out of his closet without trying them on?

    This was sort of my thought. They do look a bit old, worn, and faded. Maybe this was the Bob Marley look he was going for. Adam generally does have a plan when it comes to his stage wardrobe.

  49. LadyNorth says:

    I am sure that those jeans are not new Wink He was doing so many different looks, styles and music genres in one concert that it amazes me. A big star. I have many favorites in this concert (some songs we haven’t seen yet like Fever), but I loved it because it was such a long show with great energy and interpretations.

    I have a twitter overdose. I finish my shift now Smile After this tweet

    nom de guerre @josirose
    Yes it was!!! Front row bitches! RT @Lexiis_Br0wn: Wow the whole of cape town is talking about how AMAZING the @adamlambert concert was!!!

    I guess this is where Terrance was hit by the waves while biking.

    Posted quite a few videos above. Thanks to all for finding those. I know it’s tough work so I appreciate it! Wink
