Iya could be one of at least 3 people. If you know who/which one this is, please post in the thread. Hey Q3, I was doing some Wikipedia reading and happened to come across someone who is most likely the "Iya" involved here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilya_SalmanzadehThis person is simply known as "Ilya". He has very strong ties to MM and Shellback, having co-written and co-produced Ariana Grande's "Problem" with them. He also worked with MM on Jessie J's "Bang Bang" and JLo's "First Love"; and Shellback on Cher Lloyd's "I Wish". The rest of the profile fits - he's Swedish, part of Warner - twitter.com/ilya_creates/with_repliesOh, and he retweeted Adam's announcement of The Original High.Now here's where things get interesting: January 6, 2014 - Adam tweets that new music is in the works. January 9 - Ilya posts on Instagram that he's in LA. Mid January - Adam goes to Aspen. Late January - Adam's back home; all is quiet here for a while according to some of the old threads I've peeked at. January 24 - Ilya posts a recording studio with a view. He's still in LA. http://instagr.am/p/jkiy3gQY7L January 26 - Note the caption of this picture. "Toys. I want it all." http://instagr.am/p/jpjE6HQY_F February 22 - Ilya posts this picture. http://instagr.am/p/kuFI9mQY10 TOVE LO COMMENTS. She said what translates to "Hahaha !!! Best !!" The picture was posted while Adam was in Sweden. Tove Lo was probably there as well. Remember this Twitter exchange, which happened on February 4? Adam Lambert @adamlambert Feb 4 @iamtovelo This song!!! So so fresh. pic.twitter.com/DkxwiziIil @iamtovelo @adamlambert eeey!!! Thanks so much ❤️ I'll see you soon! ---- Ilya has posted several other pictures of instruments in the studio during the January '14 - February '14 time period. Other than those studio pictures, he was very quiet on social media then.

So who is this Tony Webster who shot a video with Sutan and had dinner with Adam? Sorry...I have no idea. Do you know if it's off facebook or somewhere else? Doesn't seem to be twitter.

Yes, backers know there are risks that a project will not be completed. But the creators also know that their reputations are on the line. Brian got all the money -- he posted that they had filmed the videos -- but no videos were released. Also, as far as I know, at least one contributor (me) has never received the promised donor item (I do not care about it and would have give it away.) This is not a big deal to me. I made the contribution because Tommy Joe was involved and I wanted to support him because he had been so nice to Adam fans and had done so much to support Adam. And thankfully, this incomplete project did not affect Tommy Joe's reputation. Tommy Joe will always have my respect as a person because he never exploited his potential fame after the AMA kiss, and he has never done anything but support Adam's success. He also is extremely nice to Adam fans, particularly some of his teen/pre-teen girl fans who are into the fan-fics (which these fans know are complete fiction). What I'm seeing is that none of the backers are posting on the kickstarter page asking for more information. Since nobody is kicking the can they might be thinking nobody cares or that everyone is finding information out on twitter and they don't need to say anything else. But it also looks like Brian's twitter went dark for a year too so maybe things happened and it was all dropped. But yes, definite missed opportunities.

This whole band discussion thing is so beyond me I can't even... I remember Isaac because he was adorable and smiled all the time. I remember Tommy because he's pretty and Adam made out with him a gazillion times (yawn), and he poses like Victoria Beckham in every single picture. I remember Ashley because she wore hot outfits and Adam ran his tongue up the back of her neck once which caused a fandom meltdown. That's it. I have no memory of anyone else. No faces, no names. Nada. Zilch. This is me, too. I just don't really pay enough attention. And to be honest, I watched very few videos with the band from the trespassing era because I just hated the sound of the two background singers.

Zac was with Adam in late 2009 and early 2010 and was replaced by Camila Grey. He filled in a couple times when Camila had a conflict. ... I thought there was a Lisa on keys at some point? Lisa left to join Kesha's backup band when Kesha was into in wacky costumes for her band and backup dancers. It made me feel a little sorry for Lisa who seemed kind of serious.
