Might want to keep that in mind!

Very cool!

Thank you CC!!!!

I was watching the videos from last night and I am in awe in how beautifully gorgeous his voice sounded and he looked soooooooooooo pretty.

Sleepwalker was a masterpiece!

Denver got one heck of a show.

I will have to get around to watching the Denver vids.

I used to live in Denver and planned to go back for a visit and see Adam. It didn't follow through. Last night and this morning when I watched the videos, I sure was sorry about that.

I so love Denver!! I really wanted to move to Colorado Springs after our vacation there! Gorgeous state! So sorry it didn't work out for you to go Spirit

DD - I have a feeling they knew Adam would have great success overseas from the get-go. Guess they didn't feel the same about Clay

Big pre-concert celebrations are coming up in SF and LV!

SF Glam Nation Pre-Party - The July 23 San Francisco concert at the Warwick will be epic, with the gay community coming out in force to show its support of Adam. Eric is organizing a pre-party complete with glow sticks, drag queens, festive food, door prizes - the works!

Now don't you know that the SF concert is going to be wild!!

I don't see anything wrong with Allison's outfit.........



Here is a link for some pics of the concert in SF

Alli has worn that before. I know this because I knew she had a belly ring. I found a pic a little after I heard Adam got his nipples pierced and it was with Alli in this shirt and you can see her belly ring. She did not have on the suspenders in that the pic I saw though. I don't see anything wrong with the shirt; everything that should not be exposed is covered.

Shannon

Oh that second picture is GORGEOUS!!!

If you're referring to the two pics I posted, I deleted the post, it was in the wrong thread.........

Her outfit was being discussed somewhere on here, and this pic just showed it better, and I didn't find anything wrong with it..........it's stage clothing.

I was but that's okay Sky. You could have jest left them and posted them again in the other thread. Double the gorgeousness!

Yeah, the outfit looks fine.

DD - I hope someday that offer happens for an Adam concert for you!

WOW - I have never had anyone offer me great free tix to a show. Heck, no one ever even offered me free bad tix to a show

DD,
If you saw the JBT, you didn't miss anything by not going last night. This new tour is a rehash of the JBT + Ruben. Same songs, medleys, similar skits.
Ruben is the preacher this time and Ruben does the Running Man, if you can imagine that. Really.

Allison's costume is fine, but I'd like to pin that hair back off her face.

I know this should be in Clay's thread but I am reading some disappointed posts due to it being a rehash. I just have to shake my head at some of the things I have read about the show.

This is a great review of the San Francisco show.


'Idol's' Adam Lambert makes magic in S.F.

Making an entrance worthy of the celebrity magician Criss Angel, Adam Lambert certainly didn't look like a reality television castoff at the Warfield on Friday.

Wearing a top hat, fringed overcoat and about a dozen layers of eyeliner, he literally appeared in a puff of purple smoke delivering the slinking set opener, "Voodoo."

As he pushed his zombie-like dancers around the stage, Lambert hit the first of the night's many glass-shattering refrains, "You're the hunter and I'm your prey." An interesting cross section of grandmas and club kids made up most of the sold-out audience.

Despite his disappointing second-place finish last year on the eighth season of "American Idol," the 28-year-old San Diego native's popularity has only rocketed since breaking free of the show. Last week, his 2009 album "For Your Entertainment" topped the 1 million sales mark while offers for movie roles and television specials came flooding into his agent's office.

So while the current crop of "Idol" alumni struggle to fill seats with their own packaged tour this summer, Lambert had little trouble selling out dates on his big-budget Glam Nation tour, which also included a second concert Sunday with his fellow "Idol" contestant Allison Iraheta and former Michael Jackson guitarist Orianthi once again opening.

Those concerned that Lambert might tone down his act after the uproar caused by his American Music Awards performance (and subsequent banning by the producers of "Good Morning America") could rest easy.

Lambert put his extensive background in the performing arts to good use during his hourlong Warfield set. He probably would have been more at home at the Orpheum Theatre just down the street.

Lambert's cover of Johnny Cash's "Ring of Fire" dripped with even more stylized pomp than the version he did on the television show. And he could unfurl his full vocal acrobatics on a run through the Lady Gaga-penned "Fever" without having to worry about facing the wrath of Simon Cowell's rolling eyes.

The concert's centerpiece was an acoustic segment made up of the songs "Whataya Want From Me," "Soaked" and "Aftermath" - all seemingly custom made to reinforce his narrative as a pop outsider storming the gates. "Wanna scream out, no more hiding," he sang on the last one, milking every word for deep blue melancholy. "Don't be afraid of what's inside."

Given the relatively short set time, the constant stream of musical interludes designed to give Lambert time to slip through his many varied black outfits felt like momentum killers. His brief between-song banter, meanwhile, sounded like it was pilfered from a rock star manual that had been lying backstage since 1986.

But Lambert thundered through the rest of the night with remarkable confidence, leading the charge on "Music Again" and looking like an extra from Duran Duran's "Wild Boys" video in a particularly fervent take on the new single, "If I Had You."

The encore, meanwhile, saw Lambert revert to type. Reviving a pair of songs that helped lift him through the ranks on "Idol" - Tears For Fears' "Mad World" and Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" - he reminded his fans why they put their faith (and votes) in him in the first place.
