Well, fall has arrived and it’s time for our October chat thread. This is the sixth monthly chat we’ve had on the site. Thought about using a Burning Man photo for this month, but decided to continue with the Adam getting awards theme with this photo of Adam and Leila at the 2nd annual PFLAG National LA Event.

Still hoping for a new single sometime soon, but maybe not this month. Enjoy the chat!

    Just wondering; would this performance have been any less awesome with today’s hair?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ljb_JsvUEc

    Still my favorite ever! This left me absolutely melted in my chair as I watched in the wee morning hours as Suz loaded WLL first. Even watching on youtube, I have never…. Wink

  2. nkd says:

    Nile Rodgers to be on Jimmy Fallon tonight, if anyone is interested. Also Justin Timberlake and Kelly Clarkson.

    Almost two years ago. Never to be duplicated. There are simply certain performances that reflect a certain time, a certain place, a certain cast of mind that those who have viewed it know that it is something unique and will not – could not – be replicated.

    All great performers have iconic performances. This is one of Adam’s – and I hope for many more to come.

  4. nkd says:

    Absolutely ultimathule. I think the point I was trying to make, even to myself, was that if he had done that performance with the dorky hair shave and construction attire, it would have been just as incredible! Sexy is sexy, and when he performs like that, it’s just sexy!
    Of course…dressed as a shaman transporting our spirits to another level, is just something in itself! Smile
    I’ll raise my glass to many more iconic performances to come!

  5. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    Aargh! Someone on mj’s is using my avatar! I love my avatar!

  6. nkd says:

    Texas, nooooooooooo! I’m sorry! That’s just not right! Wink

  7. ultimathule says:

    Don’t be upset, Texas – there is such a wealth of riches to choose from.

    I haven’t gotten an avatar yet precisely for that reason – also I haven’t figured out how to do it.

    Instructions, please.

  8. nkd says:

    ultimathule, go to http://www.gravatar.com to make your avatar.
    Just make sure your email address you use there matches the email address for this site. I believe that username and passwords are independent between the sites.
    I think we all went into detail on the first couple of pages on the Welcome thread.

  9. HK fan says:

    I had a very tenuous Adam moment last night. I was doing face painting (actually cheek art) at my youngest’s school Halloween disco and I’d made a few designs for the kids to choose from, and guess which was the most popular…The eye of Horus…..and guess where the inspiration for that design came from!

  10. ultimathule says:

    Thanks,nkd – I’ll try to figure it out. Yes, I remember the discussion, but at the time it went right over my head. I’ll try harder this time.

    Love that story, HK – it is a great design.

  11. nkd says:

    When you get to the gravatar site, use the sign up feature instead of the log in with your word press username. That never works for me.

    When you select sign up on the top bar, be sure you sign in with the same email address used here. After that, follow directions, or come back here for more help!

    And smileys are at http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Smilies

  12. nkd says:

    eywflyer…could you maybe add the “gravatar” and “using smilies” links to the site somewhere? Just a suggestion. Smile

  13. TexasWannaHoldEm says:

    nkd, sorry I yelled about my avatar and then promptly switched off my laptop! Between the avatar copycat and the Rangers losing, I just couldn’t take anymore (I’m way more upset about my avatar, lol!). ultimathule, getting an avatar is really easy – if I can do it, I’m sure you can too! Can’t wait to see what you pick. Smile

  14. Kradamour says:

    Ultimathule, I would have loved to see Passion Pit with you! Alas, the agony of geography…

    Re iconic performances…there is no way I could ever have attended Fantasy Springs, but I think it is the performance that I will always regret missing. Everything about it was a little bit ___ (fill in adjective here, I can’t!) in ways unlike any other performance. “shaman transporting our spirits to another level” – maybe that is what belongs in the blank!

    talented Glamberts out there!

  16. JOJOSIE says:

    I feel really good now as I finally got on MJ’s and was able to post. I lost my avatar but was not sure I wanted to use the same one so while deciding I put up one of my pictures with Adam. I wanted most of Adam in the avatar and I’m short so the picture starts right at my chin. I’ll probably change it later. Now if I can just concentrate and hook up my new wireless printer. I need tech support

  17. milwlovesadam says:

    Oh sure. Krikey. I pop in for a second to see what’s new and get lost in WLL at Fantasy Springs. I haven’t watched or listened to that in a long time. {{ Thanks }}

    That has to be the single most sexy sexual hot un-freaking believable leaves me speechless performance evah!

    Do we still have any of those Glam Towels left over? Need to wipe my brow. Whew! It still gets me!

  18. milwlovesadam says:

    PS. This morning I’m having a party while doing housework.

    Rocky Horror on VH1, singing along, doing the Time Warp, oh, how I love this movie!

    Little known fact: Milwaukee’s Oriental Theater is the home of the longest run, to this day, of Rocky Horror at Midnight with re-enactors, or without. They had the 25th Anniversary for it right here, with Tim Curry.

    Frankenfurter. Gotta love him.

  19. cwm says:

    Hey everyone – it’s been a while! Real life is very demanding for me right now between work and family, so I have been rather AWOL and haven’t been able to keep up with posting. I appreciate all of you who are keeping the home fires burning. And thanks asifclueless and turquoisewaters for wondering about me! It’s nice to be thought of. Smile

    So many mood swings in the Adam fandom lately, eh?

    Beg For Mercy announced – Double BOO!! Delays on Adam’s new music – Boo. New haircut – sides shaved – Yay/Boo, depends on your POV. Photo album shoot – Yay! Fan drama between the Adommy crays and those who want them to STFU; Adam feels compelled to speak to it – Boo. Finishing touches on first single – Yay! The Advocate cover and lengthy interview – Double YAY!! Beg For Mercy released; Monte’s apparent/possible support of it questioned; hate and blame flung at Monte – Boo. Adam in the studio with Nile Rodgers – Yay! Nile says wonderful things about Adam and compares him to legends and icons – Double YAY! Beg For Mercy album taken down from retailers – Yay! BFM single still for sale – Boo. Adam unfollows Monte and their long-time friendship and partnership appears to be over or at least strained because of BFM and/or music/career directions – Double BOO! Adam looking lovely at the Supper Club with Sauli – Yay! Adam re-shaves his hair higher on the sides and is now (lovingly) accused of having Lego hair – Boo (and LOL!). Adam loves Halloween and his costume pics are due anytime – Yay!

    I don’t know about you guys, but I feel like I have whiplash. LOL

    Actually, this makes me sad… Adam tweeted this on Oct. 4, two days before Beg For Mercy was announced and things appeared to go south with Monte:

    adamlambert Adam Lambert
    Lookin back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyBzibZa2MY&

    Sigh. They were such a good team. Prophetic that Adam posted this right before the shit hit the fan with BFM. Or perhaps he knew something was up.

    On the upside — I’m looking forward to hearing an announcement about the new single in the next week or so. I’m gettin’ antsy!

    And Halloween pics in the next day or two, of course Smile

  20. luval says:

    Hi cwm…your BOO’s fit this Halloween season! Nice recap.

  21. JOJOSIE says:

    Picture of Sauli over on twitter. I’ve had no luck trying to bring things over from twitter so someone else will have to. It’s probably the hottest picture of him to date. Its from Burning Man. Someone there mentioned, if he was taller he could be a male model. We don’t see much of Adam’s skin but you’ll see quite abit of Sauli.

  22. adamized says:

    Hi all. Thanks for the nice recap cwm. JOJOSIE, saw the pic and I have to say it is quite NICE!!!!! There is also a new picture of Riff Cherry. Does his hair remind you of anyone?

    http://twitter.com/#!/riffcherry/status/130324888555753473/photo/1

    Here’s Sauli’s Sexy pic from BM:

    http://i44.tinypic.com/2rxjqfs.jpg

  23. nkd says:

    That pic of Riff explains the hair! Adam is just trying to be like him!!! Wink

  24. milwlovesadam says:

    Awww. Sauli. Daytime white gloves. And his silver boots match his silver hair.

    Now. Um. About those abs….

  25. milwlovesadam says:

    Cannot see twit pics. Help!

  26. Kradamour says:

    Oooooooooooh, Sauli looking hot! Thanks for the pic!
    OK back to RL…

  27. cwm says:

    Yowza! Hot stuff Sauli! Like someone said on twitter, it’s a wonder those two ever leave the house. O.O

  28. jlurksacto says:
  29. Oksana2000 says:

    Sauli is HAWT!!!
    What can I say.
    And people wonder what Adam sees in Sauli. Morons.

    Like someone said on twitter, it’s a wonder those two ever leave the house. O.O

    Maybe food delivery doesn’t work over there… Grin

  30. JOJOSIE says:

    jlurksacto, I can’t believe how creative some folks are. My twitter feed feels that part of Sauli’s picture is cut off and Adam may have been holding his hand. They are asking why aren’t we seeing Adam too. Some feel he’s going back to NY as Nile Rogers tweets he’s working on Adams song. I feel that Nile can do the musical tracks without Adam being there. What Halloween party is he attending? Lots of tweeting going on re Adam today, nice to see so much interest. There seems to be a hint of excitement, hope that means new music is on the horizon.

  31. dcglam says:

    Love, love, love the vid, jlurks!! How did I ever miss this one?!?! And yes, there are many talented Glamberts out there.
    Gosh, being an Adam stan is so much fun! Grin

  32. jlurksacto says:

    part of Sauli’s picture is cut off and Adam may have been holding his hand.

    Think so – look at shadow.

  33. jlurksacto says:

    jlurks!! How did I ever miss this one?!?!

    A lot on ytube – I LURK on other sites. (bring over goodies – whisper)

  34. AL says:

    …it’s a wonder those two ever leave the house.

    Well, we do know that they do go out to do groceries and such. After all, to paraphrase, “they can’t live on b r e a d alone!” Wink

    Or they could order in as Oksana mentioned!

  35. dcglam says:

    Yesterday I saw Chris Daughtry perform the NA at the final game of the World Series. I know this was also mentioned upthread (nkd?). I’m wondering….

    Does RCA arrange these gigs or is it a personal management thing? Why not give Adam the opportunity??? We all know (including his management) that Adam would totally knock this song out of the ballpark.
    Do these performers actually stay for the entire game? If this is the case, I could see where this may not be Adam’s focus. Thoughts??

  36. Oksana2000 says:

    Dcglam, I was thinking the same for a long time, and the only explanation I have is that somehow Adam and Ball Games do not add up.Adam can sing circles around Scotty, Kris, Chris etc, but maybe in the eyes of common sports fan he is not manly enough to sing NA at these events?? No matter how stupid this opinion is I have seen it expressed to often on Internet. Typical sports fan would rather have LeeDewyze butchering Star Spangled Banner than listen to that “weird fucking faggot”. Sad, but true..

  37. AL says:

    From Nile Rogers twitter today:

    Me and Rich will attempt to finish the Adam Lambert guitar overdubs before the storm shuts us down today http://yfrog.com/khnu9waj

    Yes. I finished playing on Adam’s song and he just sent me an email thumb’s up. I was dying to get back to this!

    We started early today to finish playing on Adam’s Song because the heavy snowfall might cause a power outtage http://yfrog.com/oe749wvj

    I’m so happy I got Adam Lambert’s guitar playing done today-My engineer’s power is out now

  38. ultimathule says:

    To see him – so handsome – standing in a huge stadium with thousands of people – blasting out a beautiful NA – what an utter thrill that would be. C’mon management.

  39. AL says:

    And more from Nile…

    There’s no such thing as “just” playing for me- I played guitar on Adam’s record which makes me very happy Wink

    I only have time to play on the record. Sam reached out (thank god) and it all happened spontaneously

    I only heard three songs all of which were good

    Last response was to a question if he had a favorite Adam song so he is most likely referring to older songs and not ones from the new album.

    The song I played on was as Sam described it FUNKY! The track is really hot and both Adam & Sam sound great

  40. Miss Chaos says:

    I’m happy to hear this^^^^^^^^^^, but does anyone think Monte could be slighted about not playing on the album?IDK how this works, but I know he didnt play on the last one, but after touring with him for 9 or 10 months, and being his close friend, maybe Monte was upset about not being on Album 2, and then other things happened with the albums that they tried to put out. Who knows. Cant wait to see Adams Halloween costume, and maybe Sauli’s. I’m thinking Mad Max and Sauli the Road Warrior. He is do darn cute!

  41. JOJOSIE says:

    Lee might not butcher it as much as Daughtry did last night. Started too hi, voice cracked, couldn’t hit hi notes. Not good. Maybe Adam doesn’t care to sing at major sporting events. Does anyone here follow Adam on twitter? He’s asked fans for Halloween pictures. There is one of someone literally using their butt as a pumpkin. It’s OMG worthy. Some really cute and well thought out ones. I’ve had no success bringing things over from twitter so its up to one of you 29 yr olds.

  42. Oksana2000 says:

    JOJOSIE, that pumpkin butt picture has been circulated on Internet for past 10 years.I hope that someone did not take credit for that.

  43. dcglam says:

    Thank you for your NA thoughts, Oksana, ultimathule, and JOJOSIE. I know that Siobhan Magnus performed the NA at the Celtics vs. Heat playoff game. I also know that she is from Massachusetts and wore a Celtics jersey for this performance. I’m thinking that this connection does help the case. The fact that Adam doesn’t have a real connection to any sports team might be the factor that keeps him from this audience. Too bad for them and very sad!! Frown

  44. ultimathule says:

    It’s snowing – Merry Christmas all

  45. dcglam says:

    We must live next door to each other, ultimathule. It’s snowing here, too! Smile

  46. Kradamour says:

    WTF! dcglam, I am thinking you live in DC. Can it really be snowing there??? Why not in my part of Virginia!? we always miss out!
    On the plus side, it is the zombie races tonight and the snow would totally dampen that halloween feeling lol…

  47. milwlovesadam says:

    Saw a zombie parade last week in Madison. Halloween is downright professional there on campus. There were probs 100-150 zombies going down State Street protesting our Governor. The Undead, if you will. Hilarious.

  48. dcglam says:

    Kradamour, I’m actually in Northern Virginia which is in the DC area. The southern part of Maryland is not too far away, ultimathule!
    Yep, we have snow, but it’s not sticking to the ground — more like a wet snow. Wink

  49. Kradamour says:

    Just called my inlaws in Anne Arundel County. No snow. Frown

  50. JOJOSIE says:

    Adam may have a connection to the Raiders. Dadbert sent him a picture of the new Raiders shirt. It was black with AL in white big letters on the front. He ask Adam if he wanted one and Adam said he certainly did. If you don’t know the AL is in memory of Raider owner Al Davis, who recently died.
