The "Save Me" performance is to die for, and the way he looked made it even more gorgeous. "Love Kills" does similar things to me. I can't quite remember if Adam ever performed both songs in one show. Love them both. I can't wait for Adam to perform "Roses" at "Can't Cancel Pride" tomorrow.

I understand your point sizzling63. I'm a little on the fence though. Posting the content could on the one hand also have the effect of a teaser. It could get people interested in the first place. They know what they sign up for. On the other hand of course people might think: Why should I pay, when I can have the content for free shortly or immediately after. I'm quite sure Adam wouldn't share anything he would only want his most devoted fans to know. The risk of it getting out in the open is too high. Also he's not in dire need of money (which doesn't mean you can ripp him off) but it's not like he's struggling to put food on the table, pay for housing or insurance. There hasn't really been a need for me to sign up in the last five years, but if these actions of the official fan-club continue I'll sign up as well.

Right now I think Adam is working on building the fan site up. Putting up things like the chat to make it "active". Posting things after-the-fact even if only barely right now is both showing why fans should join - for a lot it's not the answers to the questions it's being-there-live while it's happening. I thought I'd do a bit of research on what artists might be doing with their fan sites these days. For smaller artists the dues might be important income, especially for some sites that have monthly dues. I don't think this is a big concern for Adam but there are other ways that fan clubs can generate income. BTS put on pay-to-see stream www.rollingstone.com/pro/news/bts-paid-livestream-bang-bang-con-1015696/. Now Adam doesn't have their numbers but he's got a lot that might pay for exclusive content. This site has figured out how to offer streaming music early (and not allow it to be copied) - example the Black Keys released an album to the fan club 24 hours before public release. www.bubbleup.net/news/the-benefits-of-having-a-fan-club . They suggest first look and discounts on merchandise and contests for autographed items. Or a yearly vinyl album. These two links from the same site talk about how to make your livestream exciting so that people will pay for it. Adam playing a different cover song each time or going acuistic on different songs. Or let's reimagine his old albums. Lots of things he could do for exclusive content. myafton.com/blog/how-to-get-fans-to-keep-buying-live-streams/ With this one saying - it's ok to talk between songs, do a different song in different rooms of your house, etc. myafton.com/blog/how-to-make-your-livestream-so-unique-that-fans-pay-for-it/

And the Adam Accolades just keep on comin'! Never get tired of hearing from people who have just seen the light.
Enjoyed that Adam/Melissa duet. Apparently they had barely rehearsed that song before performing it live. They did a great job! She seemed a bit star-struck. LOL Stands to reason.
Somehow, I think that even if Adam Vegas show is good to go, there will be ticket-holders who will not show up due to the virus. This virus is a stubborn bitch from hell. It has no intention of letting go yet, esp. when many people are pretty lazy about wearing masks and distancing. Small prices to pay, IMO. Of course, I want his shows to happen. Just have my doubts about the audience.
Can't wait to hear him sing Roses today!!!!!!!!
