First of all a big thank you to everybody who contributes to this site and makes this a wonderful place to read all news about Adam. I live in Portland Oregon and since no shows were scheduled in my area made the trip to LA. Left Friday from Portland and with one overnight stop we made it to LA in the afternoon. We got ready for the show in a McDonalds and went directly to the theatre. I was in orchestra row D, my daughter had a seat in row T but still very good view. I have never seen Adam so close. It was amazing from start to finish. My daughter had the guts to come closer to the stage and see him up close too. She loved it. She also saw Adam before. After the concert we saw Momtomany from our car and exchanged a few words. Next day we went to Iheart radio awards and then ran to the second LA concert. We again had orchestra seats row O central. I was in shock to see Adam's mom right in front of me. Around her were many of Adam's friends, Carmit, Scarlett Cherry and her husband. Second show was as amazing as the first one. Adam was at his absolute best both shows and he was sooo happy. You could feel the love between him and his fans. We adored him and he adored us back. I have no words to express how beautiful these concerts were. During the second LA concert I went two times up front to have a closer look and I am so happy for that even if the security people were watching us. They kept sending people back to their seats. At the end of the show I felt that I could not leave without telling Adam's mom a few words and I managed to tell her: Thank you for giving us Adam. Carmit was all Awwww...then we went to the hotel exhausted but happy. Next day we left LA and after 17 hours drive we were back home. We slept about 4 hours and then I left for work and my daughter for school. So happy for making this trip. I am still on a high, looking at the pictures and watching my videos. My heart is full. Amazing! Thankyou..

Misty eyed reading the part about having the courage to say those few words to Adam's mom. Carmit's expression of Awww was perfect and a wonderful memory for you. And for fandom!

Hi Saraswati It's in this link! ellentube.com/videos/0-0wrxm7u9/Nice suit! Great speech. And Ellen speaking about coming together, more love, and more dancing sounded so much like what Adam expresses in his tour 'soap box' speech! Two Aquarius thinking wonderful people!

Thank you all for your kind words. I was not sure if it was alright to approach her but I am so happy I did. What are the odds someone can sit so close to Adam's mom or friends? Again, thank you. So happy for this site where we can share our joy in watching this amazing man's journey to success.

Since it's a slow day..I have a tech question. Adam posted one of Tuke's LA pics on his Instagram. He obviously air brushed or photoshopped the pic somewhat, esp in the cheek area. All I've ever noticed is filters that change colors, etc. Would you need some kind of app to do that? Does anyone know? I might post more pics on my Instagram if I could make little subtle changes...lol. Original pic Adam's Instagram pic: https://www.instagram.com/p/BD4qK5BuNLm

Original pic Adam's Instagram pic: https://www.instagram.com/p/BD4qK5BuNLm As far as I can tell, it is photoshopped. I do it for my greeting card business and some personal photos. I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 6. It cost me $100 a few yrs back to download. Works great! You can do soooooooo many things with it.
