Congrats Adam! (who looks awesome in those pix!) Such a cool plaque! Personally I think anytime an artist earns gold or platinum they should automatically get their plaque. It is only fair. At least that is the way I feel.

Thanks for the link Sky!

I so agree but since the labels have to pay to have the song or cd's certified and for the plaque many times they get cheap and won't do it. Has anybody wondered if Adam has got plaques for his gold cd or platinum Single of WWFM? I have. I think RCA and Jive are holding out on both guys who deserve to have their songs certified and to get a plaque. I can understand if RCA wants to wait to certify the cd cause they are waiting for it to go Platinum but both guys have Over Platinum selling singles and that is huge and they should have something to show for that!!! I feel bad for both guys cause I feel they are getting screwed out of something that they should be getting.

I do know that the labels have to pay - but I am sure they can afford it. Nowadays so few artists make it to platinum sales. Even gold is way down. So those who achieve it deserve to have that special reward hanging on their wall. The artists work hard at their craft and make money for the label (who takes most of the money from the record sales anyway) so the least they can do is make sure the artists get their nice little plaque.

I'm glad they've got a nice chunk of time off before their next show in Nagoya, Japan, on Oct. 3! They're gonna have a blast!!

FC you don't have to convince me I TOTALLY AGREE with you. I am pissed that Adam and Kris have not gotten anything from RCA or Jive for their platinum singles and Adam's Gold cd. If I could do anything so they could get those plaques I would but when it comes to idol sometimes the Lables are selfisth and greedy jerks who want it all and who won't lift a finger to give something special to the people who worked hard to get something.

Oh that's a GREAT picture of all of them dressed up in costumes! I love it!!!

Did you all see this?

VIP's Increased to 50 per show!

We just got word on some exciting news!

Starting with today's on-sales, we're increasing the number of VIP's offered per show date to 50.

This gives more of you the opportunity to meet Adam. It also creates additional spots for those who missed out on the VIP's that sold out so quickly the first time around.

We understand this was not offered on all shows, and we apologize. However, we were only given this opportunity because you guys made the VIP experience so great and successful so far. So thank you very much!

This is craziness! Poor Adam is already exhausted.......

I am sorry but that is going to be like cattle calls.

This is just part of a very long awesome fan review (sorry no link to the source). This person is an opera singer so when she speaks about voice, she knows what she is talking about.

Quote :

When FYE came on, the decibel levels in the auditorium rose by about a thousand percent, and I was glad I’d remembered cotton buds for my ears, but even so, the sound was deafening. Suddenly, Adam appeared at the top of the stairs, held aloft a new voodoo staff I hadn’t seen before, struck his familiar pose and sang his first note. All around me, the place erupted into a heightened frenzy of screams and applause. But I couldn’t move. That first note had sent an electric current through my body that fixed me to the spot. I happened to have my hand on my chest when he first started to sing and that’s where it remained throughout the entire concert. I could feel every note inside my body and I can truthfully say that no other human voice had ever affected me so profoundly. You may trust me when I say I have been very close to some of the world’s most beautiful and renowned voices, but Adam’s voice had an entirely visceral effect on me for which I was utterly unprepared. I do remember briefly wishing that the two young ladies behind me would stop singing lustily and out-of-tune as they tried, unsuccessfully, to match Adam on every single note in every single song, before waiting for the quietest moment in 'Soaked' to scream: Adam I want to have your babies - classy! Haha!

Although I’d heard his voice many times before, on the CD and also on the videos, which kind people like Suz526 post for us to watch on You Tube, the sound is very different when you hear it live. It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly, because although he is very clearly and obviously a lyric tenor, darker sounds lurk beneath, reminiscent of a more baritone voice and so many harmonics…!

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. Like many great opera singers, he not only sings a musical legato line, but also a lyrical one and extends the line beyond the phrasing. This is particularly obvious in a song like ‘Soaked’ which is technically difficult because it ranges through his passaggio (register break), but you’d never know, because his voice is incredibly well-trained and he negotiates his passaggios so well. And like all the great tenors of the opera world, he knows how to milk every phrase for emotional content. And talking of phrases; not only does he keep his phrasing interesting and fresh, he is clearly hiding a third lung in there somewhere, because he sings some marathon phrases, along with those mad coloratura type passages, which he always infuses with meaning and purpose, whilst gyrating, strutting and jumping his way through the concert, all with perfect support and breath control - I defy any opera singer to do that! Another hallmark of a great singer is the fact that his diction is so perfectly clear and seemingly effortless in every song. And his pitching is another amazing feat of genius, because even great opera singers sometimes hit a bum note, but I had to wait for a fraction of a note in TCB for that to happen and he corrected it instantly, which shows not only impeccable professionalism, but also how aware and how in touch with his instrument he is. On top of all that, Adam performs with incredible sophistication and finesse, something which is not always immediately obvious when watching the videos on You Tube. Yup, he wasn’t kidding when in his audition he said “I can seng”!

BRAVO!

Sky I just love your new siggy, that is such an amazing shot.

Thanks.........I love the hair in the pic and definitely a Bravo! for the review!

I want to print out that review and mass mail it to the world. Few people know how rare Adam's talent and training is. We don't see artists of his calibre come along very often. And then as a bonus, he's the most handsome man ever to walk the earth. Yeah, I love him.

I have been on vacation and not checking in much. So where is Adam now? Are his concerts doing well wherever he is?

He is in Japan! His concerts are sold out there. All 3 of them!

Hope you enjoyed your vacation! We missed you posting!
