Adam Lambert Week in Review Sept. 26-Oct. 2, 2010
by Juneau and Xena, co-authors of the book On the Meaning of Adam Lambert
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
@adamlambert: Question: Is visibility a form of advocacy? Is being un apologetic enough of a statement on it’s own or does one have to wave a banner or stand on a soapbox to make a difference? Isn’t being proud of who and what you are leading by example? 🙂 just wondering…

Flecking Records – Adam Lambert: “I’m pretty much myself on stage” “Adam was interviewed by RazorTV while in Singapore to perform at the F1 Grand Prix and said: “I think my stage persona is kind of an exaggerated version of myself.”
Channel News Asia – F1 adrenalin off the race track “Adam Lambert and Daughtry who turned up the heat with adrenalin pumping acts that rivalled action on the F1 tracks…Punctuated only by the F1 grand prix qualifying rounds, the crowd grew and the energy sky-rocketed in anticipation of Adam Lambert whose fans gathered early to catch the 11.30pm performance.”
Magic and Voodoo in New Orleans – Terrific blog post by Starlight, an operatic singer, analyzing the qualities of Adam’s singing: “Of course, we all know that Adam can sing, but he REALLY sings. By that I mean he doesn’t fool around with falsetto trickery, sloppy diction and lazy breathing, which so many pop singers do. He sings with a full head voice into his falsetto range and he never lets go of a seamless legato line…”

Every single the former “American Idol” star has released in the country to this point has reached the top spot on the Hot 30 Countdown, and now we can say the same for “Fever.””

The “American Idol” singer took it as an opportunity to praise the country for their treatment of celebrities.”

Adam Lambert fans speak out in new web film (video) “At the end of the film, we’re really left with what is a kind reminder — Adam’s fans are more of a community than supporters of just about any artists out there. With this shared experience of finding truth within his music, we can assume that the bond between the fans and the singer will only grow stronger.”
Adam Lambert of American Idol Season 8 will “glam up” Manila on 10-10-10 “”I’m gonna be a lumpia monster!” exclaimed Adam on a radio interview, talking excitedly about his upcoming visit to the Philippines. The singer shared that at his former high school in San Diego, California, he had a lot of Filipino friends and would often hang out at their houses, eating Pinoy delicacies like pancit. Adam added that he is eager to try even more Pinoy dishes when he visits the Philippines this October. ”
Business World, Manila – 2 minutes with Adam “So is it any wonder that his concert is sold out, and his fans here are waiting with bated breath over what he would care to do next? To start with, he says that he’ll be adding new music to Glam Nation for the Asian audience. “We have a 60-minute set, were actually making it a little longer,” is definite good news, as is his endorsement of “Can’t Let You Go” — a song only previously released in the UK, described by him as akin to an alternative rock ballad or a power ballad — to the Korean fans especially, who may look forward to the October release of his For Your Entertainment album with the bonus track included.”
Courier Mail (Australia) – Adam Lambert gets music lessons from Lady Gaga and Madonna “‘She told me about the previous three years,” Lambert says. “She worked really, really hard before she made it. She told me there’s no glamour, you don’t get a lot of sleep, you don’t get a lot of stability in your social life – you just have to count on yourself and go for it. It was a good pep talk. And she was right.’”
Rock Star Weekly – Adam Lambert Introduces New Drummer Isaac Carpenter “Carpenter, who has played drums for former Guns N’ Roses member Duff McKagan’s band LOADED, Liz Phair, David Cook and Blind Melon’s Travis Warren, will get most of his workout during the European, Australian and Asian Glam Nation tour dates.”

Thankyou so much for this post. It is so interesting. I know I haven’t gone through everything. I keep finding new items to feast upon. It is so kind of you girls to keep us up-to-date on Adam’s concerts and news.
I am becoming so fascinated by Adam. I think he may be taking over my life. I don’t know what I would do without you and the internet. Love being a fan club member. Not enough time in the day to cover everything.
I am totally adamized. Definately suffering from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder! Loving it!
Take care and “Thanks” again.
It’s our pleasure! We’re so compulsive, it’s great to have people with whom to share our magnificent obsession!
It was so gratifying to see the picture of Adam sandwiched between Eminem and Usher on the Kiss 100 site. Our BB is doing well.
