BTW, slightly OT, but not totally ... interesting stat on the day (as my brother likes to say): About Idols Live Tour: www.usatoday.com/life/television/news/2011-03-30-idoltour30_ST_N.htmMaking the tour is a key milestone for contestants. They get paid for each concert, with typically 40 or so tour stops — and though the tour slumped to a $9.6 million gross last summer, it pulled in more than $30 million in 2009, according to Pollstar. They also receive a portion of profits from merchandise sales. |

Well that is filled with all kinds of awesomeness!!!  That's right...how wonderful !!! It's a thrill to think that my purchase of 6 copies may have contributed to this awesomeness ! lol. We can consider our multiple purchases as "seed money" - a little investment to contribute to the ultimate success of a talent we will be able to enjoy for decades to come... Well worth it!!! |

Another reason for a happy dance. All this PR about Adam being about town with his boyfriend. And no sensationalism, no mention of "gay." Like it is just the normal thing that it really is. In his own quiet way, by leading his life openly, honestly and confidently, Adam IS making change happen on an organic level. Just one example today: "Adam Lambert is papped as he arrives with his boyfriend Sauli to attend Lady Gaga's concert with the Scissor Sisters. Adam is wearing a pair of Robin's Jeans and his honey is wearing a pair of Diesel Jeans." www.denimology.com/2011/03/adam_lambert_in_robins_jeans_1.php |

Mika haha no insomnia you're right, I've already checked this and yes its the band. What I wasnt able to figure out is if he was there or not. EDIT The tweet said they saw him outside of @thesounds our LA peeps can confirm when they wake up (lucky rats) but I'm pretty sure the venues (Avalon/Bardot) are co-located. So maybe same sidewalk - one tweet said the room (for the Sounds) was packed so Adam and entourage may have wandered over from Bardot to check out the show - or balked at the crowd. Color me clueless. I'll let the LA hipsters fill in the blanks while I'm napping  Have a good day Gelly!! Not sure if this has been answered yet, I am on page 4. I'll delete this, if it has. Yes, you are correct. Avalon and Bardot's are together. Bardot's is above the Avalon. Katsuya is a Japanese restaurant that is 2 blocks away. |

Don't forget that Katri said she and Sauli will be in the audience at American Idol while they're on their road trip. I'm going to be paying close attention every time there's a shot of the audience!

I know I attended my first (and last) Idols Live concert to see Danny! And getting to meet him was the thrill of my life!! He was that tall, dark haired, gorgeous man with the angel & devil voice who knew how to use a mike stand -- right? |
