Everything I have read by any of the people who were actually there says that it all sounded magnificent.
Don't know why that's not a good representation of how it went down.
I mean, Adam has ears... no?

OK so I went back to listen to Naked Love for example and caught Adam complimenting Tommy on his "guitar sole was really cool" which I thought was sweet. He's no dummy. He knows the comparisons are inevitable.  And I think Tommy's guitar sounds good. Sometimes I can't hear it but I did just now and have no complaints. LOL with the "are you having fun" individual polling of band members. I wonder if that's a nod to the banter critiques. I LOVED his banter last night and can totes see a whole new relaxed talking Adam post Queen YAY! |

Sticking my head in very briefly to address a point I've seen brought up both last night and this morning.
YOUTUBES DO NOT USUALLY PROVIDE ACCURATE SOUND!!!
For Adam shows, they are usually created by pulling sound off a camera not designed for sound capture (or sometimes even a phone), which is then garbled more via the downloading/uploading processes.
Everyone in person said Pop That Lock sounded great. However, while tinafea's YouTube looked great, the sound was muddy, backing track nearly impossible to hear, and Adam's voice was thinned out.
[shrug]
Its what often happens when visual equipment tries to do double duty as audio equipment.
IMO, peeps need to be more understanding/reminded of media transmission issues when critiquing performances off of YouTube vids. What you "hear" may be significantly different than what the audience heard at the show.

Yay! :D (I've done my fair share of critiquing :redface: ) |

I'm not a huge fan of the band but it's kind of unfair to compare them to freakin' QUEEN, doncha think?
 Maybe unfair, but also inevitable given that the last Queen show was just 5 days prior. Kinda like eating the same cut of meat at a gala dinner on Saturday night and at a family diner on Thursday night. Same meat, but the accompaniments, surroundings and service are totally different. You shouldn't really compare them, but it wouldn't be surprising for someone to wistfully say on Thursday night, "This meat is great, but wow, doesn't compare to that meal we had on Saturday, does it?" Give it some time or a really special vocal performance and people will find it easier to move on. While the band is not on the same level as Adam's vocals, I can live with the band. I'd prefer a better band, but I can live with it. They don't make me want to put in earplugs or anything! But those back up singers, at least on the videos...Ugh. >:( I really hope they sound a lot better in person, especially because I think back up singers are a good idea. |

his body is insane  Adam looked amazing last night! The woman in front of me kept turning to her husband and saying, "Isn't he beautiful?". The look on her face mirrored my own, LOL. Her husband, smart man, smiled and agreed. Also overheard two teenage girls on the way in to the concert (passing posters of Adam and Scotty from AI who played the venue maybe the night before) "Oh, Scotty... He is cute, but Adam... Adam is hot; Adam is sexy." The concert was great last night and the crowd LOVED Adam. Thanks to Tinafea, who let us know when those great last minute circle tickets were released, I had an excellent seat, close up, with a perfect view of Adam. As Adam tweeted, the live vibe was great. The sound at the venue was really good; Adam sounded phenomenal, performed to a crowd that couldn't get enough of him, and seemed more self-assured and confident than ever. On to Fantasy Springs! |

What you "hear" may be significantly different than what the audience heard at the show. Good point, I remember being amazed when I heard Glam Nation Live at how much fuller the arrangements sounded compared to what I was used to from YouTube vids. But if this was @ vajayjays critique, YouTube vids wouldn't change their pitch. Not sure if you were responding to that or critiques about PTL live? |
