How did Adam do as far as the concerts in Russia and the Ukraine,how many people attended??... can't seem to get answers. Wonder why they put Adam into such big stadiums Seems like everything but today's show did very well. Minsk was not full but many fans tweeted they couldn't get there due to the blizzard. :( And today, with the "almost banned" press it got, who knows how that affected people who wanted to go. :-/ But the people who were there had an amazing time! The singing of the audience for BTIKM and Adam's smile when they started!  |

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. This is the exact opposite of angsting:))) I agree with you. I sent huge kudos to his Russian fans who came to Saint Petersburg concert, and when I think of the cancelled flights and shitty weather in Moscow, there's nothing to angst about, really. Re the money issues: I think it is difficult for some people to understand how scarce the resources are in this part of the world for most. "That boy always come out on top." |

Hearing BTIKM again was a major revelation! Reminded me of everything I loved about this song and the video, before it got crapped up with concerns about sales and marketing. SO HAPPY.  |
