Bring this over from yesterday thread: "So what's next for Adam? Hopefully a new Album soon, he says." [/size] <--- what is he talking about?[/quote] If he's going back to studio next year, are we going to get tour in the US? If we do maybe a short concerts dates? Maybe not 100 tour dates this time around, but I am hoping we will still get tour in US. Someone said on yesterday thread the rumor is Adam's going to be in NY on the 24th or 25th, so maybe he's having a meeting with the suits? [/quote] This interview was before the EP was out, so maybe he just meant the EP. Or maybe he means that he hopes he gets a 3rd album, i.e., that Trespassing sells enough so that RCA wants him to do a 3rd album, once they are done with a Trespassing tour.. Anyway, it looks like he has a 5 concert tour in Japan - the same number and size as during the GNT. I think he is starting the Trespassing tour in Asia rather than in the U.S. because he currently is doing better in sales and charting in Asia. Likely they are hoping to build momentum with Trespassing the single in the U.S. before they book tour events in the U.S.

[/quote] Adam is building a reputation as a "live act" which means he is not dependent on chart success for tours. Sure he needs visibility but act who are known to be great to see live and have a solid following will always be able to tour. There have been many act over the years who have had limited chart success but have huge tour followings. I don't think Adam needs a "current" chart hit to tour. YMMV

Adam Lambert On 'Pretty Little Liars' Halloween Episode: Sneak Peek! Photo: ABC Family Halloween month may already be in full swing, but there are still three weeks left until the spookiest day of the year. Costume planning, plotting and scheming may have you busy, but you might also be eagerly, anxiously, desperately awaiting a date a little sooner than All Hallow's Eve: October 23rd. Have no idea what I'm talking about? Well you must not be a diehard Adam Lambert fan, then, because if you were you would know that the 23rd is the night that Adam will appear as a guest star on the Pretty Little Liars Halloween special! Here's what we know right now: Adam will perform at a costume party in the episode, which is called "This Is A Dark Ride." From a new teaser video, we know that one of the songs he will play will be "Cuckoo," from Tresspassing, and that his costume is something like a Victorian meets, well, Glambert, Vampire. We can't imaging it would be all that easy to sing with those fangs in, but if anyone can do it, Adam Lambert can. We also know, from an earlier teaser, that this appearance is going to involve not just singing, but acting as well! Is there anything he can't do? Check out some more teaser photos after the jump!

This interview was before the EP was out, so maybe he just meant the EP. Or maybe he means that he hopes he gets a 3rd album, i.e., that Trespassing sells enough so that RCA wants him to do a 3rd album, once they are done with a Trespassing tour.. Anyway, it looks like he has a 5 concert tour in Japan - the same number and size as during the GNT. I think he is starting the Trespassing tour in Asia rather than in the U.S. because he currently is doing better in sales and charting in Asia. Likely they are hoping to build momentum with Trespassing the single in the U.S. before they book tour events in the U.S.
JMHO, I don't think he was referring to the current EP, from the article "he is, he jokes, 'promo-sexual', as he chats about his new EP 'Trespassing', from the album of the same title released earlier this year." He's talking about a new album, to be precise, his 3rd studio album.
(Ok, I've said this in the numbers thread before so for those frequent the thread, please bear with the "broken record" ) Based on "United World Chart", the unofficial TSP worldwide sales were estimated around 269,000 copies sold in the past 4 months, is that enough to break even or to grant him another album? Jordin Sparks's last album "Battlefield" sold 177,000 copies in the US within 1 year since its release back in 2009, but over half a million worldwide up to date, and she's working on her 3rd studio album; Daughtry, his current album "Break the Spell" sold 469,000 copies since its last Nov. release, and I highly doubt that he won't get another album. Trespassing, into its 5th month of release, will continue to sell and the bulk of the sales will probably be coming from int'l markets, which is why, IMO, Adam has been/will be doing all these selected int'l promo pushes for TSP, including one-offs and mini tours like upcoming S.A. tour and Japan tour, etc., and of course that is in addition to put some serious cash in his own pocket (hey, he's gotta make a living just like the rest of us...okay, nicer living )
Both Adam and RCA are milking the project the best they can right now. I have no doubt Adam can put together a GNT type of tour for TSP in the US or int'l, the correlation between chart hits and a successful tour is limited. BUT a drawn-out official tour like GNT might not be what RCA is looking at right now. IF they don't think the new single can help turn things around then it's in their best interest to move on with the new project.
IMO, Adam will "tour" just not anything like GNT, and he won't have that luxury of taking a year & half off to make another album, and IT IS A VERY GOOD THING IF RCA IS PUSHING HIM FOR ANOTHER ALBUM!!

I just can't understand how they can't sell us music which is actually good when they manage to sell us crappy music everyday. I will never understand that. :dunno:

If he IS looking at a new album already, doing one-offs would be perfect. He wouldn't be on the road forever and could have time to work on the album in between, instead of putting if off until after a tour.

I'm not giving up on Trespassing yet (the album AND the single) but when it is almost clear that this album won't skyrocket through the roof (saleswise) it's better to look into the future for the next amazing project. I don't want to predict, that Trespassing as a single won't have success, but to be honest, I am ready for new stuff - I would die for new songs : So I think playing one-offs in different countries would be perfect instead of a big and worldwide TP-tour. I hope this time his plans will lead him to South-America - I think he hasn't been there before and he has a lot of passionate fans there!

If they're thinking about a new album, they will probably try to release it as soon as posible. I agree with you, if that's the case it will be one-offs or mini-tours while probably recording on the road. Te question is: will they give Adam the same freedom he's had with Trespassing? I guess not... :-/
