adam-tokyo-feb-21
Adam is continuing his “We Are Glamily” mini-tour of Asia as March begins. This tour will proceed to Russia and Eastern Europe later this month, wrapping up in Helsinki, Finland on March 22. Above we see Adam in one of the iconic poses of the tour thus far, at the third Tokyo show on February 21 (photo by @letmelive81). We will see what the rest of the tour holds in store for us this month, and perhaps we will start to get some idea as to Adam’s plans for the upcoming spring and summer as well. Enjoy the chat!

    Looks like Sauli is coming home to LA but Adam is heading for London–True??? Question Question

  2. TLKC says:

    I agree with rs and riskylady. The idea that any fan is taking credit for the improvement of Adam’s concerts is ridiculous.

    The Adommy kisses in GNT were hot, entertaining and deliberately political so they worked for me on every level Smile Grin Kiss ROTFL but Adam isn’t the kind of artist to repeat himself and we wouldn’t have him any other way. WAG Fever is a laugh-and-a-half and pretty much in line with what Gaga and other artists are doing, except it’s same-sex. It’s still a political statement but more funny than in-your-face. Maybe that’s was what Adam was aiming for.

  4. TLKC says:

    Sauli mentioned in an interview that he was disappointed that you cannot fly directly from Helsinki to LA and mentioned London and New York as possible connecting cities, so we will have to see whether this is an enroute thing or something related to Shoshanna’s hint that something big is in the works. (Queenbert, O you great gods in the sky, please.) Angel

    I can see Sauli taking a different flight plan, anyway. Adam is definitely going first class and Sauli’s budget is probably closer to ours. Mine, anyway.

    But I like the big London announcement story MUCH better.

  5. TLKC says:

    eywflyer: what you said. I’ll come with you to the airport and I’ll bring flowers, luval, but you will have to do the screaming.

    Finally got all of the maps updated.
    Trespassing era concerts (world view):
    http://www.adamlambertlive.org/trespassing-map

    Glam Nation era concerts (world view):
    http://www.adamlambertlive.org/gnt-map

    Adam did break significant new ground worldwide this time around (South Africa, Vietnam, China, Indonesia, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia).

    Here are the less pleasant maps, at least for those of us in North America:
    Trespassing era concerts (North America view):
    http://www.adamlambertlive.org/trespassing-map-north-america

    Glam Nation era concerts (North America view):
    http://www.adamlambertlive.org/gnt-map-north-america

    Suggest right clicking on these map links to open each one in a new tab, then switch back and forth between the tabs to get the full effect.

    And of course all but a few of the North American Trespassing dates were radio concerts with generally shorter setlists. Costa Mesa, Fantasy Springs, Winstar World Casino and Phoenix have been the only stand-alone full length concerts I can think of so far. I’m not sure what kind of setlist we will get for Miami Beach, although it should be close to full-length with Adam headlining. Would definitely expect a full-length concert at Del Mar.

    Apparently Adam is in Vienna doing some promo for this event

    So dear nkd do tell more.

    I want to once again thank AL and mlg for their huge contributions to this site during the past year. Since 3/8/2012 (when we posted a recap of the Jezebel Party in Atlanta), we have had 55 live concert threads (including 6 Queen + Adam threads) and 5 concert recaps on our site. During the past five weeks alone we have had 16 live threads. Mlg has provided us with a wonderful poster for every single live concert thread during the Trespassing era. AL has hosted more than half of the live threads during this past year.

    THANK YOU for helping to make this site the great place it is!

  11. adamized says:

    eywflyer please remember to tell us when it is time to make a paypal transfer. Keeping this site up is no small feat and you are all appreciated.

    I don’t listen to pop radio in my car but I do hear Adam when I’m wondering around stores and most recently (yesterday) at BK while trying out their new turkey burger. BTW, very tasty!
    I think a few of Adam’s songs have made it onto the background music lexicon. Not sure what they call it anymore. My guess is that brings in a bit of steady income.

    I am so hoping that there is still hope for Queenbert in the US or Canada sometime soon. Loving that so many of us will be in LA but of course I want more. Speaking of which, I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me in Friday’s mail. Yup, Queenbert Day 3. Thank you so much jlurks… Will buy you several beers in LA. Won’t forget this time.

  12. eywflyer says:

    adamized, we are in good shape financially at the moment. Even with the new increased monthly cost of around $25, you guys have been so generous with donations during the past year so that there are enough reserves to last for quite a while. I keep the donations page updated with the latest expense and total donation amounts, so you can check that out and see how things look.

  13. CODYSMOM says:

    I went to get my mail just now and I had a package in there that I did not expect.I am on here everyday to read but very seldom post.I wanted to ask for the Hammersmith CD,but thought it would be rude to ask since I had already asked for the Queen one,and you all don’t really know who I am.So thank you jlurksacto for the wonderful surprise. Kissing

  15. luval says:

    nkd…. started to listen but was interrupted. It was amazing!!!! He’s topping himself in the soundcheck!!

  16. nkd says:

    Dear adamized, that is all I know!
    It seems like a pretty big deal. There are some big names involved with Life Ball like Bill Clinton, Elton John, Whoopi Goldberg, Donatella Versace…

    ETA I also know that I can not afford a ticket!
    Wonder if he’s performing.

  17. nkd says:

    luval…it’s great!

  18. nkd says:

    Hi CODYSMOM! We know you! I’m glad you got the Hammersmith DVD, it’s fantastic, as is jlurksacto for being so generous to all of us!

  19. milwlovesadam says:

    That soundcheck is such a treat!!

    eywflwer, AL, mlg, words aren’t enough to thank you for everything you do here!

    Just where is Waldo? London? Vienna? What’s Shoshanana’s big news? Fans need infomayshun!!

  20. milwlovesadam says:

    On a completely off topic , but very important moment, I have three, yes three, ladies who I care about with a brand new diagnosis of breast cancer this week. It’s unbelievable. Three. All friends, all young. And young at heart.

    I just have one word: Mammogram. It saves lives.

    That’s it. I’m not going to post about this again.

    I’d much rather be talking about the objectification of the Glambulge. And conduct a search party for wherever it went.

    But, alas, reality intrudes.

  22. HK fan says:

    I wouldn’t worry about anything you see on 24/7….the last few weeks it has been taken over by a bunch of very strange ‘fans’ that like nothing better than posting the biggest load of crap they can to get a rise out of regular posters……all of which are gradually not posting anymore. And the admin does nothing about it.

    luval…cuckoo in the UK means mad, crazy, mental etc. I’m assuming it means the same in the US.

    I think you should do the same thing to your car, jlurksacto!

    The next time you pick me up, I won’t have any trouble identifying you. I’ll see you coming from a mile away.

    Smile

    Hmmmmm Ron, got the wheels a spinning. Just have to select
    a favorite pic now.

  25. milwlovesadam says:

    In reading through all the posts about that comment over at 24/7, I have to say that I agree with our peeps more. I do however have a few responses. Of course, Mils has responses!

    I never minded Adommy. Even in Amsterdam, which was waaay OTT. I didn’t find it “arousing”, I found it hot and sensual, and all of those moments made a point. For the vast majority of the audience, they only saw it once, and it was fleeting. Us super-fans who watch every show on line, got more than our share of those moments. Some of them weren’t even a kiss, some were a tease. Some were funny.

    I loved the dancers on GN. They added so much to the show and were so professional. The mix of male and female was just right to me. The boys were never campy and effite. Quite the opposite.

    Yes, Adam had a vision for this tour. Yes, he chose to have his friends dance and do the choreo. Yes, he knew that in Asia and in foreign countries there is a broader acceptance of the show he put on. To me, it was just too much at times. It cheapens the show and his image.

    I like the strong rock swagger Adam. The OTT campy stuff may be who he truly is at heart,or represent a side of him, but, I prefer the fierce or ballad side of him more.

    He also knows it would never fly in the states. I’m hoping he knows that he needs to tailor it back quite a bit here. Except at the gay pride event(s). The only way to do that is to axe Johnny. IMHO.

    We all know that Adm gets minimal to no press coverage for international gigs here. EXCEPT they were filming bits in Japan for Idol’s “Where Are They Now?” segments.

    Debbie Downer: I will absolutely cringe and be sick to my stomach if they show moments from the show with Johnny and Adam camping it up. Or Adam with his butt perpendicular to Terrance’s face. My fear is that if they show some of the OTT moments on Idol, that will be like pulling the curtain on his career here. I hope they show him doing a glory note, in his blue suit, or Stay, not Fever. IMHO.

    FWIW: I love this show. Helsinki was beyond my expectations. The fans went ape-shit nuts for it. I’m so proud of Adam and the troupe. TJR is a great guitarist and keeps getting better. Ashley is a sexaay dynamo. Brian added so much musically, and Rick is a great drummer. The gals seemed to tone it down and not overshadow him as much on WAG. LOL. Maybe they do read blogs from time to time.

    Rant over. Feel free to throw tomatoes. I’ll make juice.

  26. Calgary says:

    mils and all: I may have an embryonic glambert and I want to try and make sure he turns into a real one! So I will take any and all advice.
    I went to a new massage therapist (app.28 yrs old) and got talking about music. He said he mostly prefers the old stuff. I asked him if he liked Queen and his response was “I think Freddie Mercury is the greatest vocalist of ALL TIME!”. I asked if he’d heard of our boy and got the usual “yeah, wasn’t he on American Idol?” Yes, I replied, but last summer he fronted for Queen at 6 concerts in Europe, one a quarter of a million in Kiev, and three in London. “Really!” he said. And we carried on. So, I’m thinking maybe we’ll talk more about music next time and then maybe the third time I should gift him with a AL/Queen cd. Whaddya think? And what CD?

  27. luval says:

    Calgary…yes yes yes to the Queen cd …the 2nd time. IMO don’t wait until the 3rd. I think Trespassing although maybe FYE if you can find the UK cover. Smile

    Oh, mils…I had the same thought about the filming. Do you remember which show?

  28. milwlovesadam says:

    Calgary, I would refer him to a few You Tubes, maybe let him borrow your GN live DVD, and gift him Queenbert/Kiev.

    Oh the joy of a newborn baby Glambert!! Nourish him well. Dress him in leather and lace.

    TeeHee. Methinks you’ll be getting more frequent massages!! Bring a Cd or DVD with you and play them during your “treatment.”

    OMG. Massage + Adam = Nirvana.

  29. fwachdr says:

    Back in town and have not yet read this weekend’s posts, but I had the BEST welcome home present!!! Thank you, jlurksacto…the turtle must have been hooked up to a jet!!!
    Can’t wait to watch Queenbert again!!!

  30. milwlovesadam says:

    luval, I don’t remember.

    Gotta go. No time for research. Passover preparations.

    Happy Passover to all who celebrate. The seder is tomorrow night.

    Gotta make some balls. Matzoh balls, that is.

  31. Ron says:

    Hi Calgary!

    Next time or maybe the third time, ask him for his email address and then send him this link:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkCSs2_9WNA&list=FLsasMislK-xkyWZzvG4Wl_w&index=107

    We’ve all seen it … Hammersmith, second performance of “Another One Bites The Dust” … but he hasn’t.

    Wink

    It is still one my favorite Adam performances and I think it always will be.

    ETA: TLKC was standing right there by the ramp to see the whole thing … including ripping his leather pants.

    ETA part 2: She didn’t rip his leather pants! But, she wouldava if she couldava. Smile

  32. ultimathule says:

    Agree, mils, re rock Adam – no one today who can do it with the thrill factor he does.

    Concerned about the Idol segment, too – the wrong clip could be bad news.

  33. nkd says:

    Good choice Ron!
    Definitely one of his best.

    “Who Wants To Live Forever” – 7 camera view.

    Yes, send him both links Calgary and then let us know what he thinks about them.

    Life Ball Style Bible
    http://www.lifeball.org/?p=4905&lang=en

    It appears this year’s theme is 1001 Arabian Nights. What will Adam wear?

  37. luval says:

    What will Adam wear?

    Is there a vampire Arabian figure? Smile

  38. luval says:

    Seriously…this ball sounds like a big deal!

  39. ultimathule says:

    Any advice on how to download that Soundcloud to iTunes – usually there’s a download link (I logged in, but still not there). Thanks!

  40. nkd says:

    How about a mediafire link ulti?
    http://www.mediafire.com/?iefpacps8re6v09

  41. Alright Ladies and Gents, I have a question. I don’t know if any of you here have ordered them, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a cheap website to order customized rubber/silicone bracelets. Thinking of making some for my friends and I for when we go to Miami and was just wondering which is the best site to use? Thanks!!!!!

  42. turquoisewaters says:

    Something tells me Bieber does not have this kind of a soundcheck.

  43. ultimathule says:

    Please god – not those hammer/harem pants – lol.

  44. nkd says:

    “Who Wants To Live Forever” – 7 camera view.

    Perfect choice again Ron! Hi! Kiss

  45. ultimathule says:

    Thank you, nkd, would love to know how to do that – just great.

  46. nkd says:
  47. ultimathule says:

    Adore that AOBTD, Ron – really special – love how he backed into the mic and then incorporated it into his performance – the little hand-held mic “action” at the front – and then Brian’s close-up smiles at the boy. Just a wonderful, marvelous performance.

  48. ultimathule says:

    The one on the right, I hope, nkd.

  49. nkd says:

    Yes ulti, the man! I should have been more specific! Maybe he can fly in on a magic carpet! Wink

  50. milwlovesadam says:

    Do we know that he’s going to this thing for sure?

    Is there a vampire Arabian figure? Smile

    This ^^^ LULZ!!

    Please god – not those hammer/harem pants

    This too ^^^

    Did the Arabian Nights wear black leather and fingerless gloves?

    Maybe it’s really Arabian Knights? Then he could wear his Ray of Light tunic. Muwhahaha
