loool...yes, I'd agree with nic...for a while now, several month...or if you are in particular referring to the last few shows...in both cases I'd blame this HOOOOOOTTT (and ultra cute) blond dude...what was his name again?^^ ...no seriously...why you guys reckon that is? Pharaoh!! good point...Adam does have quite a few great things going on in his life at the moment (world politics being a BIG GIGANTIC BUT for pretty much all of us) He got a dog, he has music he (in his own words) is very excited about, he is on this awesome tour with the band that was/is a big inspiration to him, the tour is getting glowing reviews I feel are increasingly written by one of our very own, he has good people in his life...whatever the situation, things seem to work with Sauli...yeah, why shouldn't he be happy?

Plus we don’t know, what is going on „behind the scenes“. He‘s selling his house, so I would guess he already found a new home and could be creating it in some ways.

Hhhmmmm...wonder if its the combination of new exiting music coming and QAL tour going so well with stellar reviews. But I've noticed that too. At times he is like a kid in a Xmas shop, all bright eyes and happy smiles. The cute skipping on stage lately...I kinda do it too at work now its so infectious:)) I really hope it has to do with the labels agreeing on a collab between Queen &Adam on an album or 2 or 10000...........

Nevertheless I think that he loves to remodel and style a new home. Whatever the reason for the move is. And since I‘m German as well: I know what you mean, when you don’t think that moving is enjoyable. I hate it! But Adam would have a lot of help and only would have to tell his helpers what to do. Plus ( I think) you leave your kitchen, lamps and and many cupboards in the house and find new ones in the new house. So, if you don’t want new ones, it’s much easier to move in the US than in Germany. Here you come into a new house usually without a kitchen, lamps and often even the floor is blank (without carpet or wood...). My first move took a lot of work and time until I had everything I needed...

I think it's probably a combination of factors where he feels "validated" professionally and that his life is coming together overall - highly successful Queen tour and major recognition as frontman, probably an exciting new house to look forward to which will likely be a "step up" from the previous one and probably won't entail the typical pain of moving, new music to look forward to, and may be a bit of afterglow and/or anticipation in the romance department. If, and I say "if" the "ultra cute" blonde dude from Finland is a contributing factor, I have no objections lol. I have a feeling though that there may be other guys showing interest also. Can't hurt.

Could still be a knock off, but I rarely see fakes of these kinds of medals for sale. Normally it is just not worth it making an elaborate copy when real ones become available too (through heirs selling their family's medal and so on). But our antique trade is not in these kind of items, and I don't really know medals, so could be everything. Anyway, I don't think it is a big deal, but I am amused that Adam is wearing a European catholic royal pin. It might be this one? (there are four different ones) Hi Nick, Alex and Skaschep Only saw this discussion right now. Yes it 's a Portuguese military order, restricted to Cavalary and Navy and you are right Nick... it´s not a Knock off... our Adam uses no fake things... this is the real deal I offered Adam in TOH tour Zurich...he just loved it and of course he knows what he is wearing because I added a full family and history explanation... but I never tough he would use it in the show... thanks for that, for showing me that gorgeous pic that started this conversation. So, this was an honour receivied by my great grand parent and it was offered back in the day to those patented generals in the Army that made relevant Humanitary services to comun people in times of war and my greatv grand parent recieved the 4 of them, like you said Nic...always very well informed and documented.. Those 4, I thought run in the family... this one I gave to Adam but as Nic said I don´t know if the other 3 were sold in that auction; and yes Nic the one you posted is the one I gave Adam the others being slightly different. A distant cousin asked me to give it to him as soon as he knew I had it by heritage and lottery... but the fact is that as soon as I laid eyes on it(3 years ago ) I thought of Adam and decided to wait for the opportunity of giving it to him... our beautiful inside and out King that made possible the revival of Queen for our joy and delight... yes this is the whole story and I think everybody agrees I could not have found better owner for it. looking forward to see some of you in London the 12 and 13 December. Thank you so much for your story! You must be so proud that Adam is wearing that! I must have had faith that Adam would never wear such a thing without knowing the whole story behind it.

I just had to come forward after I saw that discussion...you really don´t have to thank me. And Adam doesn´t use fake things because in/with him everything becomes real... and what the hell do we know? he is always surprising us and that is one of his many extraordinary talents. I have to thank you a lot for beginning the discussion in the first place and for your remarkable work and insight here at Atop that is always a pleasure to see. And you are right, I´m really proud he chooses to wear it in such a great show seen by so many... Thank you again.
