here is the Kiev Recap such as it is. To be honest there are not many good videos out there, I posted some anyway and if more come in I will post those as well. We are very spoiled when it comes to videos so a show here or there that is sparse with the vids is fine by me. I never want fans to feel obligated to make videos.atop.proboards.com/thread/1650/2013-concert-recaps-petersburg-helsinkiI agree, tinafea! I was just wondering if there was some special stuff going on in Kiev... Didn't Adam say he was feeling extra "giddy" or something during that concert? Although maybe I'm wrong... when we have a few concerts close together, I get them all mixed up. |

this isn't his first time in Russia. Why is everyone freaking out? He just performed in Moscow without incident.....what has got everyone's knickers in a twist just because he traveled to another city in Russia? I'm not freaking out and my knickers are nice and smooth.  |

Ok, so I wont supply percentages since I don't want to be inaccurate (or have the time to look figures up) but Adam is in a place where he, as an openly gay man, is seen as criminal, immoral, a danger to society, and mentally inbalanced, by the government and a large majority of the citizens. On top of just being himself, he will stand on a stage and sing Fever with a male pronoun, he will sing OOL which he is on record for saying is about gay rights. What part of that sounds 100% safe? I think he will be fine but, for sure he is making a statement by being there and there are risks to that from those that want to make an opposing statement. I applaud Adam for taking the risk, but the consequences are really out of his hands. That's what I don't like. this isn't his first time in Russia. Why is everyone freaking out? He just performed in Moscow without incident.....what has got everyone's knickers in a twist just because he traveled to another city in Russia? Who is freaking out.. I was in St. Petersburg 7 years ago before this overt government anti- gay policy took place..I just think a twitter campaign with OOL is not a great idea for ME.As far as Adam singing it .. Great. People are sharing their feelings.. have you visited Russia?.. Most of the everyday people are lovely.. the govt. not so much.. the rise of the new Cossacks .. Hate with govt. approval.Just saying.. Things have changed because of the hate campaign against gays in this particular city by a particular mean spirited politician. |
