Wonderful news enriquemee! Many pregnant women have high blood pressure during this time, so I’m sure she will be just fine. I was wondering if you would have done this adorable video where you were dancing happily, before Adam?
Good Question rosemary, and yep, I would have done something like this, dancing in the street, before Adam. hahahaha
Ha Ha! Good for you enriquemee!
You lucky people who were at Foxwoods! I know it’s an old one, but it is one of my all time favorites. I am exhausted after I watch it!
I’ll never forget that concert, wishing, too, that I had been one of the lucky ones to win the draw that night at the pre-concert party so I could sit in the front row. The lucky winner ended up sitting right in front of Adam when he sang this song.
Boy, that was great to see again! Thanks, Rosemary!
Well, that made MY night … Both times !
Thanks for the trip down memory lane Kiwi, awesome.
So, Adam came up at dinner tonight and I am getting sick of this ! Quote – ” He did two things wrong, first was all the makeup and shit and then at the AMAs when he put his tongue down the guys throat” Me- “OK, I’ll give you the AMAs, he knew he messed up there, but he has sold 2million records and he is huge all over the world, it’s just here in the US and the “gay” thing. Wait until this record hits !”
Please, please be HUGE !
Yes, I was there. Way up in the nosebleed section but the monitors worked great. What a concert! Thanks for the replay.
so he is filming the video to NCOE in the new couple of weeks! as said in this mornings ktu radio interview!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Queen to play Poland July 7th? Would explain why they chose a later date for the concerts in London http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF8&prev=_t&rurl=translate.google.com&sl=pl&tl=en&twu=1&u=http://www.gazetawroclawska.pl/artykul/560909,queen-zagra-we-wroclawiu-koncert-w-lipcu,id,t.html%3Fcookie%3D1&usg=ALkJrhiNqN6Os243yHK4ZNF1Lb_vSeS1zQ
I just ordered a copy of Instinct Magazine. It’s $7.95 US.
At the bottom of this article, you can phone to place the order.

or you can view it on iTunes for $2.99

I did the itunes for iphone app for 2.99 although I didn’t even try is. First purchased app, all for Adam. then I saw you could buy a hard copy but it was like $5.99. Now, I’m wondering what I bought.
received my t-shirt and tag from AFL today on MY BIRTHDAY (april 24 anyways)! Getting to the point that I’m forgetting what I ordered. Waiting on Fault and Dorian was supposed to “get back to me” for backorder. And the Trespassing copies. IDEK! @buffy522
Happy Birthday! Perfect gift for yourself! – xo J
What a great way to celebrate your birthday buffy!!! I hope the rest of the day was fantastic also! xo
Hope your birthday was happy and that the coming year will find you healhy, safe, solvent, and whatever else it takes to get to an Adam concer!
Happy belated birthday buffy! Hope you and Adam have the best year ever!
It seems that NCOE has an add date for radio release on May 29th. At first I thought, why so late? And why this trickling of releasing it here and there now, and just a full blown release everywhere at once. I’m bringing the below text over from the adamlambertlive.org site where someone found it in the comments from FYEntertainment blog. I guess RCA is taking a long term strategy approach to Adam’s singles, so this is good:
This was at the FYEntertainment blog:
anonymous:
this seems to indicate a long term strategy, rather than timing everything happening all at once, they’re planning for tv and print promo and early adopters on radio (and stans ofc) to drive the initial album purchases, and then the radioplay to hopefully build once that’s over to sustain sales while he’s bizzy doing international promo and gigs with queen
chartnonny:
This is exactly what it means. It’s really good news. It means that they are invested enough to take time to build the singles. It’s what labels do for acts that they see as long-term investments. If they didn’t care, the song would have just been tossed out there or given an early adds date and then left to fend for itself.
I would put money on this being the strategy that they have had planned for a while, what with Adam talking about them working several singles to radio and not touring just yet.
@chartnonny also said this on twitter:
I’m good with it. It shows they have long-term investment in making the singles work. He also has 6 big market radio concerts in the weeks immediately before it which are a great lead in to official adds date. A song can’t build momentum for an album release in a week or two. It takes even the biggest hits far longer than that to climb the charts. This adds date is really not a negative thing in the least.
It’s good to know that they’re actually thinking about these things, and that some fans can see the big picture and share it. Love this!
Thanks for that info. It makes me feel better after one of the area dj’s calling BTIKM a flop. Maybe fans haven’t made much noise about it yet, but it sounds like that will build as things heat up. I so want this one to “work” and blow everyone else away.
Thanks for finding this! Will add to tomorrow’s Daily Update. This fandom is just full of info! – J
I feel a lot better knowing this now! I was so worried that Adam was not going to get the promotion that the other artists do. There are so many songs on the album that need to be showcased like Adele’s album, not just one single. O Happy Day!
http://unapologeticallypop.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/lets-talk-about-glambert.html – She’s got some good points there, but I think she’s a bit overly pessimistic. I’d love to hear him do an operatic Rock God thing, too, but he’s doing what he has to and there’s plenty of time for that in stage 3.
Thanks for posting this, BonBon. She does have some good points, but I think she’s overly worried and perhaps not really in tune with what Adam wants for his career. I think this album and the way it’s being released is a strategic move for Adam. He really wants that spot on the charts. I’m not sure if BTIKM helped (I have yet to hear it up where I live), but NCOE should really do it for him.
oh wow, I really loved that video! I just love his journey so much. I truely believe he is doing what he as meant to be doing, in all aspects of his life, the career, the example, the relationship. Great video!
