Huh. Never thought about how such issues could affect tour insurance. I wonder if Brian's insurance was significantly higher than Roger's or Adam's during the QAL tour because of his recent health scare and the new knees. <wry snicker> Adam's personal insurance policy on his voice doesn't sound quite as crazy now.... They all have to have physicals for the tour insurance policy. I'd guess the premiums are based on many things, but I'm certain that health and past claims are considerations. There is a very scary 2009 vid of Adam trapped by paps as he tried to leave a medical center. I remember that fans guessed back then that Adam had to have a physical for the Idol tour. Lol, the cab driver's name. Adam Lambert Gets Protected by Quween on the Scene: Better Quality Part 1thegeniusmachine www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3n7pRRyd48He was not having a physical for the Idol Tour when that pap event happened. I do not believe that the Idol Tour took out tour insurance since they did not view any of the Idol finalists as essential. 19 was pretty arrogant about the Idol brand being all that mattered. The tours that take out tour insurance do it on essential personnel -- and usually only for major tours that have huge associated liabilities.

There are many great contributors in this fandom, and madamimadam is the cream of the crop! Her organization of streamers during the QAL tour is just the tip of the iceberg. Look: Adams Angel @adamssangel

I remember him saying a year or so later something about going to the doctor or getting a physical sometime but it might have been for the GNT. There was this vid and then the one where they followed his car and in the five years since the paps have become mightily more respectful. Was he such a hot topic then, just having come out, or when the wrath of the Glamberts happened, because I do remember it happening, did the paps take notice?

What is your opinion on the definition of " huge associated liabilities"? An artist with known substance abuse problems (possible example of Courtney Love), an older artist (Brian / Roger), an older artist with known past health issues (Brian), an artist who's prone to laryngitis (Sam Smith), or any artist who just has a really expensive tour (Katy Perry/ Gaga)?

JAX @jax “@arwa_Saifi: @jax #AskJAX someone you'd love to collaborate with?” @adamlambert This girl's twitter pandering is about to get on my last nerve. Her affected vocals already have.

Maybe he is having vocal issues (a la Adele) because of poor singing technique. Sam starting working with a vocal coach 12 years ago -- but in her interviews she sound more like a performance coach. Here is an interview with her: www.vh1.com/music/tuner/2015-02-05/sam-smith-vocal-coach-joanna-eden-team-celeb/I can't speak to the quality of his vocal technique but clearly he needs to make some kind of adjustment. I'd say companion more than coach, woah. Never had any training herself. "Make your face look like that to make that sound". Based on what I've learned from our vocal coaches here his throat sounds closed and his vocal cords are tight. All the time. Makes for his sound and he's a good live singer, but all his songs in my quick review sounded the same. No variety means no rest.

Showbiz is a strange biz to be in. Truer words never spoken.
