Not only you. I hate it when people are doing that to women and I find it as offensive when it is done to men. I understand people have different taste in things so I just scroll away in these situations.... Yeah - it's treating Adam like the male version of Dolly Partin - only she is demeaned and joked about for her big breasts. Oh well. :  Dolly is a good example. She is proud of her assets and shows it off. It works because she has the talent to be more than a caricature. Adam wears things on stage to make the bulge prominent, as did many of the all time great frontmen. He isn't shy about it. Like Dolly he has the talent to be seen as much more. |

It is so slow here today I took a look at the Eagle Cam someone here mentioned (sorry, I can't remember who). It's really interesting. Three babies, and I happened to look when mama was feeding them. Take a peek between news flashes... www.raptorresource.org/falcon_cams/index.htmlWell, ok, most the time it's like watching paint dry... Oh! She's feeding them NOW! (6:50 ET) |

Hey guys, I’ve been busy with a project of late and have not had time to check Atop very often. When I do lurk a bit I run out of time before I can post, so I wanted to say a few things- Thanks to everyone who gathers tweets or quotes articles or posts videos or writes amazing essays or posts! It gives so much enjoyment to everyone. Keeps me coming back for little moments of silliness and heart and talent-watching and aawww. And yesterday to run into Purple Haze/WLL from Cologne – Danke!!!! Mys*&@^#r and Lynne – much appreciation for your recaps of the Uh Huh Her show! Lynne – LOL that The Dodos helped you get some cool-cred from your hipster son! I loved the story. Cheers to several peeps who gave support re: my son’s band – Lynne, Mys*&@^#r, Hoopla (hope that download link worked smoothly…) Gelly, Wal, Kapsiz, Midwifespal, Prism How lucky Adam is to have all of you amazing fans!!! And how lucky we all are to have his talent and beautiful spirit in our lives. Muah and gratitude to all you guys! Peace&love Wish you were coming to LA to see the Dodos tomorrow. I'd join you! I loved the El Rey so much! After the Uh Huh Her show, they were handing out cards advertising upcoming shows at the El Rey. I got one for the Dodos and was going to send it to you. Somehow, I lost the darn thing! (I am useless! LOL!)  |

Mys*&@^#r- Thanks for the thought re: the El Rey theater flyer, even if it didn't work out. I am heading out in an hour or so to go see The Dodos at The Fillmore in SF. Two hour drive from here. Trying to catch my son for some visiting before the show starts.
Speaking of parents and musicians - how sweet was Adam to take his dad along to the studio when he was working with Sia!

I also feel that sexuality is a major part of Adam's personality while performing, just look at his European GNT shows! While he is just as wonderful with his PG shows, there seems to be something missing when he has to keep himself in check! He isn't embarrassed or humiliated when he preforms, except when he doesn't sing well - which is very rare! So let us enjoy everything about Adam - he deserves it!  |

I hope you are right and he doesn't become a caricature. Sometimes I wonder when I see the pics that are posted here and other places and read the remarks at other places, mainly, that focus entirely on his GB. I've read concert recaps that seemingly only focused on that part and nothing else. I find that sad and, yes, demeaning. I can't imagine that anyone would want to be portrayed soley for one body part, no matter how "proud" one is of it. :-/ |

while I was doing my last minute voting on 8 @ 8 for q102, I happened out of curiosity, click on q102's Playlist. Low and behold, #65 is Aftermath Billboard Remix.
SO I think officially, they had added AM.. hell yeah! Is there anyway to confirm this other than the Playlist.?
