I am overwhelmed by everything. The videos, the sounds, the stories, the experiences of so many Atoppers known to me ... the words of others ... wow. So there is still time to get in on the fantasy album thing, huh? OK ... I'll bite. Adam realizes there is a huge untapped market out there ... straight men. He renames his band "Freddie's Machismo" (the personnel do not change). The new album is called Lumberjack. It is recorded live at the prison at San Quentin. Tracks include a number of originals include Beggin for the Banana (a sort of Cuckoo meets By the Rules) and Finlandia, a Bohemian Rhapsody style opera, but with bagpipes and reindeer bugling. However, it is the trance rock cover of The Ballad of Davy Crockett that takes off. The second single, this time a cover of Red Sovine's (Come on Back Truckers) Talk to Teddy Bear is used in the closing credits of Quentin Tarantino's latest shoot-em-up and becomes a world wide smash. Though not a single, I Shot the Sheriff, a duet with William Shatner, is one of the year's most talked about songs.

Finally, finally, I've caught up! Everything that I wanted to say about the last concert as well as the whole WRG tour had been so eloquently and passionately said over and over again by everyone, maybe just this: a perfect ending to an awesome happy tour! and era #3, here we come! Buckle up! :D

Seriously...Adam being the international star to perform for VIP??? Not sure I buy that ...the band could easily have gone with him to make instrumentation etc easy. Hey ...I can eat my words later....but if he is attending...maybe just to attend. Why would it seem implausible to you, I'm curious?? This event takes place in May, there's no need for the band to accompany him to the location right now.

Adam's Kiev soundcheck is magnificent!! I'm enjoying the latest recaps, thank you all! And now I've got that song "Vienna" running through my head: "'cause in Vienna we were poetry, yes in Vienna love was alive, watching you watching me, all that our eyes could see, all of the nights we chased into the dawn, it was the best time of my life." Looks like an awesome charity event. You are so right! His voice just amazes me! He just keeps getting better and better.... And I love "Vienna" and Linda Eder! I heard her sing this live....gave me goosebumps.

Well that is what happens when one skims the thread...I thought people were implying he was in Vienna now. Dunce cap now on! Sorry for my rant.

I was just curious about your point of view. Yes, Adam is in Vienna, according to his "accidental" Facebook leak, "Doing some recording and prep interviews etc for www.lifeball.org here in Vienna tomorrow. So excited to be a part of this extravagant event!!! Who's coming this year?! May 25th!”

Hey ...I can eat my words later....but if he is attending...maybe just to attend. Wait. Didn't Adam say that he went to Vienna to talk to people about this gig in May? If they are at the preliminary planning stages, he would not bring the band with him. And they wouldn't be actually rehearsing the production at this point, anyway. If he was just attending the event and not participating, again, he would not need to go to Vienna now for talks. I think he will definitely be doing something at the event.
