Has anyone ever attended a Stageit concert? Could Adam do some of those just to get some money? Or is this something that artists do when they can't fill physical venues? Gosh, I would pay a lot to see Adam sing a capella in his underwear in his living room. ;D Ummm, Adam doesn't need money! Stage It would net him a few 100 dollars! |

Gosh, I would pay a lot to see Adam sing a capella in his underwear in his living room. ;D Wow, did I have a knee jerk reaction on this! It sounded like it was just this side of Porn. I looked it up and I think if fits the beginning artist or indie perhaps. I firmly believe Adam can fill venues and would only increase in size as it goes along. See Mys*&@^#r post. Anyone that can draw 6k to a state fair is big. imho Well, if you look at the stageit wiki, there are artists who are on there who are bigger names than Adam, e.g. Jason Mraz, Bonnie Raitt, Sara Baraeilles, Matt Nathanson, Jimmy Buffett, John Oates, etc. And the state fair, wasn't that free to anyone who paid to go to the fair? I am not sure he could have filled that venue if tickets were $50+ a pop. And Adam could charge anything he wanted. I think with his world-wide fan base, people would pay it. And I was kidding about the underwear, hence the ;D |

I completely agree that an artist does not need to be a commercial or radio success to tour. See Allen, Kris. But just to play devils advocate, the lack of Trespassing's commercial success is the reason for no US tour...because if it HAD been the commercial success it should have been, there wouldnt be as much of a need to get back into the studio right now!  (and yeah, no way is Adam going to do a bar circuit "tour".) I agree that Adam needs to get new music out and that precludes a tour in the US, but if he wanted to tour, there are promoters who are ready to bank that tour. Regarding touring -- there are many examples of huge successful touring acts that had little to no airplay. Phish, #11 of 2012: Dave Mathews, one of the top Summer 2012 tours - Radiohead, #18 of 2012: Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Then there are cult acts like Flaming Lips that fill mid-sized venues night after night. |

And I was kidding about the underwear, hence the ;D The free seats were in a designated area. It wasn't the floor or the first level. Reserved was around $35. Can't find my receipt but I bought Susie's ticket and I think that was what she paypaled me. When I say 6K. I am not even counting the free seats. Matt Nathanson opened for Kelly Clarkson. When did he get bigger than Adam? Huh? ETA: Just checked Matt's wiki, definitely not bigger than Adam. He is the typical songwriter, ala Kris Allen. h He is making a living at his music but doubt he could fill 6K or even 4K venues by himself. That being said, I saw him with Kelly and he was very good! I thought he was new though. Had NO idea he has made 11 albums and is almost 40!! Also, Kris toured with Jason and they were having trouble filling their venues. |

Wow, As Mys*&@^#r says Adam is bringing in lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and the next 2 months will reap many more. We need for him to establish himself and get what he truly deserves. Let the album begin...I'm sure there will be on-offs because Adam needs the stage, he wants to entertain us. He lives for that !!!!

Adam has some clever fans ... LOL at this staging: Micha Radtke â€@micharadtke@adamsfanart not sure if this meets requirements but I "staged" it in my garage- "Death of 'No Trespassing' instagr.am/p/RcynDzPOe5/Micha Radtke â€@micharadtke@adamsfanart you should have seen my neighbor's face when she saw it (and I just returned to the scene...) priceless :D ________________________________________ ETA: removed the picture ... left the link ... black humour is not everyone's cup of tea |
