On the Warfield event page it says "One Republic and Adam Lambert." thewarfieldtheatre.com/eventdetail.php?id=38103Who knows if one is headlining or they are co-headlining? I'm just happy that doors at 7PM, show at 8PM, appears to mean that probably no more than one other act can be stuffed in there. Tickets are $42.50 - $59.50, plus fees, of course. GA floor, reserved seats in balcony. Capacity 2250. As a NorCal (Nor-Cental ?) gal, I am definitely trying for tickets. When will be the next time he is in concert with a reasonable drive from my house? Not soon enough! Will there be a fanclub presale? We probs won't know til last minute. Hope to see you there. peace&love |

Would there be an opening act for a concert with two headliners? ..cause for very selfish reasons I can't stand the idea of going to Adam's concert and having to live through TWO other acts... it was bad enough with just one non-Adam... I also don't understand how would it be better earnings wise - you can book a larger venue but you also have to split the revenue.... There is absolutely no proof, that I know of, that says co headlining or opening for a bigger act brings in more new fans. It didn't work for Kris or David Cook. Didn't work Orianthi, for that matter. Worked to get Jordin lots of followers on Twitter but sure didn't work for her last album or single. Q3, has said that the most cost effective and revenue earning tours play in mid size venues. 3-5,000. Adam shouldn't have any trouble filling up venues of that size. I am picturing the official tour being in venues very similar to Glam Nation. Oh, and Daughtry has to tour with someone else because he has had trouble selling tickets this time around. I like the guy, even though I don't like his music. It has to be hard to go from 5million albums 6 years ago, to just making Gold (I think he did.) His sales for album #2 (and singles) and album # 3 are just slightly ahead of Adam's. Plus, it's been out for almost a year. ETA: Just read at MJ's that Daughtry is doing a one month co-tour with 3 Doors Down, mid Nov to mid Dec. Looks like the venue sizes run between 4,000 - 7,000 Adam can sell out venues that run between 4,000-7,000 all over the country for a few months this summer, then I will agree with you. (I'm not talking about #10 tickets at a fairgrounds either) I have a feeling we will see a much different response across the country this summer, than we did two summers ago, for a solo tour for Adam. However, Adam is going to do venues around 500-1500 all across the US, I'm sure he will sell out or come very close. Everyone has their times that they open for others or co-headline, EVERYONE! Carrie, Kelly, Daughtry, Rihanna, Bruno, Taylor Swift, even Pink! (who had to open for JT in the US even though she had a platinum selling album and radio hits) Radio isn't working. If Adam is the showman and performer that we all think he is, why wouldn't the strategy of getting him in front of music lovers, who have never heard him sing live or watched him perform, be a good idea? Why didn't anything happen for Kris or Cook out of their tour situations? Because they are both as boring as hell! Concert goers didn't care about a boring WGWG in a plaid shirt! Adam is NOT Cook or Kris, that's the difference! ETA: We should compare first albums to first albums off of AI, etc. Adam is experiencing the same drop all of the AI contestants experienced in the past with their second albums. Daughtry sold around 1 million copies of his second album in the US, Adam will probably make it to 200K with his second. |

Where is Adam? Airport tweeting? Reyna @rainonme83 Just finished recording the "Reyna Show" about to upload! Adam Lambert @adamlambert@rainonme83 what's the Reyna show?! Of course!! Trespassing at LAX! Looks like the ANZ 9:45 flight non-stop to Auckland. He'll be there tomorrow (our time) at 1:45 ET |

Adam is NOT Cook or Kris, that's the difference! Yes! This is what I have always said. Adam, because he is such a dynamic performer, would be an exception to the rule. Unlike Kris and Cook, he commands your attention when on stage. He is noticed and remembered. Perhaps more than anyone out there today, he could be a successful opening act; or co-headliner if the fit is right. Plus, maybe it's just my opinion, but there is enough intrigue with Adam Lambert that non-fans would actually show up to see him. And there is no shame in opening for a larger act. There really isn't. Adam's US fanbase is not expanding. Radio isn't getting it done. Time to try some new avenues. |

I'm a little sad and frustrated at the moment! :( I didn't hear anything about the release of "Trespassing" as a single in Germany so far!  Don't know if we will officially get it as a single here and if so, when the release date will be. I want to request the song at the radio stations in my region but I don't know if I can do it now or if I have to wait! Can't find anything in the internet or at the "Sony Germany" site! >:( I think I have to wait for further information and continue requesting NCOE for now!?!  (of course without any luck in the last time!  ) Sorry, I had to get that off my chest! Now back to voting for Adam in other countries! ;D |

Momtomany and smokey - loved your posts. Could so relate. A song kept running through my mind: Those were the days, my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way I can remember singing this with all my friends in every bar we went to back then. You brought back so many memories for me. This brings back memories for me too. Used to be my favorite song to skate to at the local roller rink! ;D |
