I can't find your post, Kamar bb, sorry: I'm dizzy with rewatching/posting on Atop/liking/tweeting all the videos, it's exhausting:))) But, I'll say it's a sweet exhaustion:)))
Okay, here's why I think the Helsinki concert is going to be special ( this is just my crazy mind, Adam never said anything):
~the venue is the largest, the biggest audience AND it's going to be PACKED ( got to respect that:)))
~Finland is the country where his album and songs have had the largest success ( among a few others) (got to respect that too:)))
~he has sung before Sauli many times, but never in his homeland:) and with so many friends of both Sauli and himself, Sauli fans
& business associates:)))
~he is going to sing in front of his in-laws. That would be the Koskinens. Yes, the in-laws. In my book, they have been married
since the OOFTA tattoo. So, he has to put some extra effort in it, you know:)))
~it's the last WAGT concert - it has to end with a bang!!!
We'll see, of course, keeping my fingers crossed and all:) I'm a little apprehensive about the sound because the venue is big
and there will be so many people, the laws of acoustics will be a little different to apply than in other venues. I want it to be perfect, just as it was during all the previous WAGT concerts.

Not angsting here, but trying to shed some light on attendance in Belarus, Ukraine and Kiev.
Not only did Adam have weather problems, he also ran into some issues with ticket prices. For the average Russian or Ukrainian the ticket prices were exceedingly high, given that the average Ukrainian or Russian does not make enough money to afford these types of tickets. Unless you come for the small percentage of upper crust citizens, ticket prices could easily have cost several months of pay. If the ticket prices had been less, I would have expected higher attendance. However given the size of the venues, he got some pretty high numbers.
Also it was pointed out that this is the time of year for the Lenten season.
Ultimately, Adam didn't lose out, as I'm sure he was guaranteed "x" nuber of dollars for playing each of these facilities. What it may affect is future concerts, where sponsors may not want to sponsor him, if they aren't going to make money. We just don't know what the sponsor's bottom lines are.
All in all, I would say, given the time of the year, Adam did well.
He will play to a full venue in Helsinki, so he will be ending the tour on an extremely high note.
That boy always come out on top.

Thanks tinafea! Better too much than not enough I guess.  I really didn't check before I posted. We'll all have to come down from a major high after the Helsinki show. I feel so spoiled. This mini tour has been incredible. And sensational. And fabulous. And superb. And the cat's meow! |

BTIKM is so great live! Funny how I love both that and NCOE live, so much! Dr Luke's production sucks.
