As October begins, Adam has just announced the official radio add date (October 8) for Trespassing, which is the title track and the third U.S. single from his album of the same name. A Trespassing EP with a radio edit and album remixes will also be available on October 16. After limited success for the first two singles from Trespassing, Adam likely needs this third single to be a hit in order to continue onward with the Trespassing era, at least here in the United States.

After an October 13th concert date in Australia, Adam will return to the U.S. for a pair of dates during the second half of the month, on October 17th at the Arizona State Fair in Phoenix, and on October 29th at the Texas Tango radio concert in Grand Prarie. Above we see a beautiful photo from @Alikat1323, taken at Adam’s September 25th benefit concert in support of marriage equality. Enjoy the chat!

    I agree about Gaga, krads, I like her but she started out so over the top that people expect more and more shocking things from her, where will it end?

    I just saw some updated election report that Romney might win the popular vote but Obama the election. Sound familiar? #shades of 2004… works well for me if that were to happen this time around. Have to go watch the youtube of Obama on Leno tonight. Apparently he said Obamacare does cover Romnesia. Snicker

    Finally got your package LadyNorth! Ready to send out the licorice for Mils and Jojosie!! Thanks again.

    Welcome leoblueeys! We love when lurkers come out of lurkdom and join our shallow corner. Laugh

  8. LadyNorth says:

    Cher, that’s great Smile A slow one came already? How about choco? Email me if you don’t know who to send what Grin Salty licorice you can share to all of you.

    I love all the good news about selling numbers Smile But if people love Adam’s music, why don’t they do one search in google? And they would know he has new music.

    Nice pic of Sauli in Elle awards gala Smile Finnish mags are writing about it. He told he is very happy with Adam and is used to paps in U.S. Grin

    Too funny. I just finished watching a bunch of vintage trouble youtubes and now this (very nice!) picture came out. I really like this group a lot, and downloaded a bunch of their songs. I’d go to their concert in a hot second. The singer Ty Taylor was in those Zodiac performances. Interesting to watch them all grow up and find their niches.

  11. cher says:

    Anyone else want to try some salty Finnish licorice? Let me know and I’ll share. Big Smile

  12. mieps says:

    Do you like it, Cher?

  13. cher says:

    Haven’t opened the packages yet mieps. Have to divide evenly between the takers first. Smile I’ve only eaten the sweet candy that ladynorth sent. Those I’m not sharing. Evil Grin Kinda finished those already. Smug

    I don’t like salty liquorice, we used to get it when we lived in Germany as my hubby loves it, I like normal black liquorice though.

  16. TLKC says:

    Lovely pic of Sauli LadyNorth. So glad to hear he’s coming “home”.

    I saw “This is It” in the movie theatre, luval, and it’s paints such a wonderful portait of Michael Jackson, the artist. I love the way he always followed up any slight critiques in rehearsals with the words “with love, with love”, as if to downplay the negative impact of his words. He must have known that slightest negativity from him could be crushing to people who adored him.

    I was thinking about MJ when we heard about Adam’s voice being insured. When MJ died, a lot of people lost out on work and revenue – there must have been an insurance policy and they must have been compensated.

  17. TLKC says:

    Salty liquorice – I am in for eating anything Sauli eats. Can’t believe I said that. mils is rubbing off on me.

  18. rs says:

    I don’t like regular black licorice, but I do like salty food. I wonder what salty licorice would taste like. But don’t try to send it here cher, not with the catastrophic mail service. I would probably have to pay a fortune in customs. Governments try and get money in any way they can. And always from the little guy. The US isn’t any better. The IRS is now jumping on me now and wants me to pay taxes on my piddling Israeli pension even thought I had an exemption from paying anything when I was earning a salary. Ridiculous!

  19. TLKC says:

    Trespassing is getting a nice bit of attention on two of the smaller charts and it seems to be pushing up the deluxe cd sales. I bought the radio edit and the other 3 remixes but haven’t completed the EP cd yet. Adam Storm doesn’t seem to know the best course of action at the moment, so I’m waiting until the dust settles.

    Good luck with the pension issue rs. It’s never nice to have the government looking over your shoulder. I once delayed paying my taxes for a year (don’t ask) and was worried sick. When I finally sent it in with an apology, they processed it without a word and GAVE ME A REFUND!!! Think it might have been a different story if I had owed them.

  20. HK fan says:

    rs….it tastes like liquorice but salty!!!!
    I don’t like anything salty, don’t even put salt in food.

    TLKC….methinks that comment deserves a bit of time in the cornerSmile

    Love that picture of Sauli.

  21. LadyNorth says:

    It’s funny, when Sauli is here (F), we know nothing about him except if there’s some kind of public work thing. No paps, no pictures or gossips. He can do what he wants and not be disturbed (except fans I guess). But I think also in LA no paps, if he is somewhere alone or w/ friends (no Adam). Adam and their relationship is the magnet?

    rs, I’ll send you a card in an envelope and put a very slim salty licorice package inside it, no way they can ask you to pay taxes of the card! But U.S. customs ate the chocolate I sent to Cher, it disappeared on the way… Frown

  22. rs says:

    Thanks LadyNorth, I would love that. Maybe my taste buds have has grown up with my age. I do enjoy some anise flavored foods now.

  23. LadyNorth says:

    Great rs I’ll do that Smile Now going, catch you later!

  28. rs says:

    “oh my” is right! cwm! That photo is gorgeous. I read another google translated article where Sauli mentioned how happy he is with Adam. It just fills my heart to see that.

    I love all this new attention that Adam is getting since PLL. And it was just a taste. They didn’t get the whole songs, so the kids had to run to find more. Can you imagine what would happen if they heard him on their radios?

    The question, is what now? What is the long term effect? Is this the beginning of a roll? Do the radio PDs pick up on the fact that there is potential and money to be made from this over the hill 30 year old theatrical gay guy? Will they give him a spin? Or do they go back into their closed minded holes and keep ignoring him. Adam will be fine, but it is their loss and the loss of the kids who are saying now “where has he been? why haven’t I heard him before now?

    cwm, that photo of Sauli was veeeery hooot! Taken when and by whom – professional?

    Google translation was very nonsense. Better luck with my version Smile Sentence structure was pretty difficult, had to reshape them in some places.

    Sauli Koskinen reveals : My fashion icon is dark and fiery actor!

    Sauli Koskinen, best dressed male 2012 revealed to AVA how his rock-spirited style is created and which dark, handsome actor is his style icon.

    The man voted to be a best dressed male 2012, the charismatic man who we see next to (/arm in arm with) Adam Lambert, Sauli Koskinen 27, arrived to Elle Style Awards fashion gala looking handsome, dressed in darkish colors.
    – Winning feels so great. I feel very honored to win this kind of title, Sauli thanks.

    This man who became known for BB2007 was highly praised for his accessory, especially shoes and jewelry. On the gala he was wearing custom made tailored jacket by Unconditional, silver jeans from LA and a skull shaped necklace.

    Koskinen tells his style forms mainly by intuition.
    – It’s hard to describe my own style, I just go and buy, dress and wear. Of course I think what I wear, but I just do it for myself.
    – Sometimes I do impulsive shopping, but luckily I haven’t done that too much. Sometimes I fix things myself. The shoes I am wearing today I added some spikes, Koskinen grins.

    Style icons from the streets and movie screens

    Sauli, who is nowadays very true to his rock style, tells that his style icons are ordinary people from the streets and certain dark movie star, who likes showy accessories and jewelry. Sauli admires charismatic Johnny Depp.
    – I watch people walking on the street and get ideas for my style. For casual and fun style I like a lot of Johnny Depp. He is always charismatic and looks great, Sauli admires.

    Sauli, who has moved to LA to be with his boy friend Adam Lambert, says that also Finns have a sense of style.
    – I think Finnish people are stylish. Of course in Finland you see different kinds of styles compared to LA, especially in fall and winter, Koskinen thinks.

    Singer Adam Lambert revealed in his interview to AVA in June 2012 that his love for Sauli inspired him when he was making Trespassing album. How do you feel about being the source of inspiration?
    – Of course it feels good, doesn’t feel bad, who would feel that? Koskinen smiles.

    The man tells he is happy.
    – I am happy – about winning this title, hahaha, the best dressing man 2012 jokes.

    Wow, congrats to smeggs!!! That looks like a big healthy baby boy!!

    I saw This Is It when it was in theaters. I was very impressed with everything about it. That would have been a hell of a show. He was so meticulous and gracious.

    Hmmm. Why am I in the corner if somebody else made a saucy comment??? LULZ. It’s Okay. I live there anyways…

    Sauli’s looking very good. Especially in the twin to Adam’s Dragon Attack pants and his necklace.

    Watch Lyndsey Parker talk about the Idols in this interview and hosting reel that she just tweeted. She talks about Adam at 0.53. She comes out and says that he is her favorite.

  40. aely says:

    This radio thing is really driving me nuts. Adam, Trespassing, has been in the Top 5 requested songs in Dallas everyday for 2 weeks. Last week he was either #4 or #5 each day. This week he was at #4 Monday and Tuesday, yesterday, after PLL he was #3 and today he was #2. They do play it a few times a day but they play Phillips “home” every hour and it has not made the countdown once. Just needed to vent a minute Pissed Off

    I really try to always be positive but man, sometimes it is just so hard!! I think this proves if radio would play it people will request it because they like it. GRRRRR

    And done……. Smile

  41. dcglam says:

    Love this video, rs! Thank you so much for posting. Lyndsey is the consummate Glambert. I adore her almost as much as I adore Adam. Wink Razz

  42. milwlovesadam says:

    aely, please count your blessings. At least he is on the radio there. No such luck here. A little in Chicago maybe, but that’s not here. So close and yet so far.

  43. milwlovesadam says:

    post ho -out. Big storm brewing here. Turning off computer.

    See ya’all later.

  44. aely says:

    mils
    You are right. Sorry for the rant. Plus, I get to see him in concert Monday with nkd and texas. I am very lucky!! Grin

  45. apal123 says:

    Mils, He’s not played in Chicago either. I have never heard anything from the Trespassing era on any station. He did make the Mix where listeners could pick the songs but never just as a part of their regular rotation. The meme at MJ’s is he’ll be dropped by the end of the year because the EP didn’t make the Billboard 200. According to Elliegirl, because of his sales here he definitely isn’t selling internationally and RCA will be done with him. One little tidbit that was mentioned was that Adam will have a concert in Moscow in 2013. Maybe someone could find out if this is just rumor.

  46. dcglam says:

    At least he is on the radio there. No such luck here. A little in Chicago maybe, but that’s not here.

    No such luck here either, mils. I have yet to hear Trespassing on the radio. I keep listening to FRESH 94.7 thinking that would be my best bet because they have been very supportive of Adam. No dice! Frown

  47. luval says:
  48. firstimerob says:

    I live between San Diego and Los Angeles and have heard only WDYWFM 3 times. You would think Adam’s home area but nothing. I request Trespassing all the time at 104.3MYfm but no cigar. Pain

  49. Kradamour says:

    Well, no change in Hampton Roads (southeast VA). WWFM was rarely heard (and only once by me) on the Ryan Seacrist countdown show when it was in rotation elsewhere but only on that show.
    Nothing from Trespassing. I’m not holding my breath.
    Confused Frown Confused

    On another topic that has been discussed above: salted candy. Just so we are clear: salt is for caramels.
    Wink
    YUM!

  50. cwm says:

    The meme at MJ’s is he’ll be dropped by the end of the year because the EP didn’t make the Billboard 200.

    apal123 – I think we need to be careful about declaring what constitutes a “meme” at MJs. I was just now reading today’s numbers thread, and only three people (among many) posted pessimistic predictions about Adam being dropped (same suspects as usual). That doesn’t count as a meme in my book. I think we pay way too much attention to the pessimists and nay-sayers like Elliegrll. They’re just regular people with opinions and speculations; they don’t know any more than we do. When people put up posts like that, of course it takes over the thread because then everyone else comes in with their opinions to provide a different or broader perspective. But that doesn’t change the fact that it’s all just opinion and speculation by a small number of persistent people who clearly don’t like Adam and don’t want to see him succeed. Yawn.

    I too am very frustrated by radio, but I refuse to predict doom and gloom. Adam continues to have many opportunities and options available to him and is continuing to grow his fanbase, especially internationally.

    The Moscow show appears to be real, according to this: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=11319940&l=457eee8897&id=252558399090

    So now upcoming we have two big shows in South Africa, four shows in Japan, a high-end show in Bali, and a show in Moscow. Looking good!
