youtu.be/Nftm8-3k-IoI hope this interview puts to rest all the "he's a solo artist, it doesn't matter who is playing behind him" discussions. Every time there is one of those, I bite my tongue with difficulty. Adam has said too many things over the last few years how much he values his band, dancers, etc. Anyway, he didn't leave his feelings open to interpretation this time, he just said it!!! Yay! I have to totally disagree with you. Adam IS a SOLO artist. The band is very replaceable. Adam didn't put anything "to rest". He said the same thing when the back up band consisted of Monte, Cam & Longineu. Bands like Queen, The Beatles, Daughtry are different. They write the music too. It's a collaborative effort. Every member of Adam's band is highly disposable. Tommy doesn't sing hasn't written anything and can changed out without a problem. Same with all of them as proven that the entire band is different than the original FYE generarion. With the exception of Tommy. The only reason he's still around is no one else of any fame wants him. Like someone else said it's Adam Lambert under contract. The band are contractors for hire. Each one is highly disposable (as Monte proved out). I can't see one member of his band adding any special value where they can't be changed out with no problem. Musically maybe, and contractually obviously. Mentally not, me thinks. Adam is team player, and it seems to be outmost important for him having right people around him. He has tight relatioship with family, he most often prefers to collaborate with friends, and have more than just working relationship with his band. Thus, changing them is not just terminating a contract and making a new one with someone else. In that sense I think he feels being both solo, but truly also part of the band. |

Not sure what you're trying to say. I love the band but Adam IS a solo artist. He values a band with chemistry. He likes people that give off good karma. Whoever, he plays with, I am sure will always have that & be important to him. But he is a solo artist and over the course of his career, we will probably see quite a few changes to who backs him. Exhibit A: The UK fill in band. He could do that because he is a solo artist. As opposed to Daughtry, which is a band that records and performs together as "Daughtry." Definitely Adam IS a solo artist.  |

Wow! Great concert video! I'm happy! ;D Of course I downloaded it immediately!  Do we already know how many people were there at Adam's concert? :dunno: |

If Nicki Minaj is on the Idol panel (the concert cancellations are interesting) she would never have the posiiton that Adam might have gotten. First, she is female. 2nd she is an R&B, Pop, Rapping diva. Not in conflict with Adam's chances one bit. The people in cinflict with Adam's chances would be Nick Jonas & Enrigue Iglesias << out of the rumors we've heard so far. And in regards to the single, a new single in Sept would have been the plan all along. We have discussed in the numbers thread, that Sept would be the perfect time. Gah, so many confusing posts this morning. My head is spinning!  |

Nope, nothing to do with what you said. I posted at the bottom of page 1 when I first got on today, right after seeing the interview. I got very, very aggravated, my problem, not anyone else's, when a few posts were made about the pick-up band in the UK and how they were better than Adam's band and it didn't matter who was playing behind him, blah blah, blah. It's one of my sore spots, that and when people pick on TJ. No, not a "fan" of TJ, just think some people are very unfair and critical. I've felt from the beginning that no way would Adam have made TJ his guitarist for old times sake or out of gratitude. This TRESPASSING era is too important for that kind of sentimentality. Anyway, I LOVE the band, love the divas, think Isaac is a riot, think Ashley is edgy, gorgeous, and talented, think Brian is good at keeping things going when Adam (inexplicably) disappears for a minute or so, and unabashedly will say that Tommy's adorable and his head banging has always cracked me up. Have no way of judging where TJ is in the ranking of rock guitarists, my instruments are flute, piccolo, and viola, haha, but think he's doing a great job. Nothing deep. |

Audio or video? BTW, love PTL! I repeat about 5 times before I continue on in my album listening! Love Robert Marvin as a producer. |

Only think I dislike about PTL is the missed opportunity for an amazing dubstep bass drop in the bridge after "GET DOWNNNN"  But I looove the bridge as soon as the "werrrrk"s come in 8-) ETA: oooo that version was fierce. I think my favourite was Winstar. |
