As always, my nerves are shattered after the Europe ticket buying experience for the Velvet tour. I hit up the Finnish site first as Hamburg and Copenhagen were GA - only to find that it immediately converted to Finnish (even though I had picked Google translate to English) and there was no way to see anything in English. In a panic I picked the VIP with no Meet and Greet and let the web site choose the seat - so may not have got the very best seat. But cutting and pasting the Finnish to Google translate was headache enough, because, as it turned out one had to create an account before they let you buy and the clock was ticking because the ticket couldn't be held for too long. I ticked all sorts of boxes as well and may or may not have purchased insurance - I had no idea at the end, LOL. Same happened for the Danish site. It switched to Danish with no way to get back to English. At least the German ticket buying was really easy. Thank God for German efficiency. If anyone is going to Hamburg or Copenhagen let me know as we can queue together and spell each other off, as we did for the other GA Velvet tour shows in North America. BTW, it looks like the Helsinki VIP packages were gone in 15 minutes. Lol, I bought tickets to Copenhagen. I'm going to make it into a mini vacation with my sister. I'd love to meet! Same thing happened to me - it turned into Danish, and I had to Goggle Translate everything in a different tab, and I had to create a Ticketmaster account, and by the time I was done, my time expired... It's a good thing though I took the time to translate, because to insure the tickets, apparently you must be a resident of a Scandinavian country. Who knew.

So much Adam news out there, my head is spinning! Very enjoyable interview on OZ radio. Adam says his Vegas show will be BIG! That's what you have to do in Vegas. It's all big. I hope his stage show is really good. It will be a taste of what's to come on the solo tour.
Question: Someone said somewhere that Adam was on his knees during a song at the Brisbane show. Anybody know which song? I seem to have missed it. Gotta let someone know. thanks.
Also, that line in Roses about the guy leaving his hat on the windowsill makes me think of one of my favorite songs. "You Can Leave Your Hat On" by Joe Cocker. Talk about a sexy song! Bluesy and sweaty. I'd love to hear Adam sing that song.

I am pretty positive that this #Velvet tour promo snippet was taken from the El Rey show. It was fantastic!!! (Truthfully though, I am not sure if him gyrating up and down the mic stand is necessary to sell tickets . For me as a "less is more" type fan he is just as sexy without the "extras")
