I'd say minimum 3000, max 5000. Based on 25 people front row in this pic (approx 1/3 of stage?) and 20 deep back to the sound stage so minimum 1500 in front of the soundstage. If it's 30 people deep to the soundstage then 2250 in front of the sound stage. All guesses of course but it looks massive. I don't know where this crowd shot came from but it can't be the Adam concert. I was front row and the black barriers in this picture are not the barriers we had. For one thing they kind of zig zag and the barrier across the front of the stage at Universal was absolutely straight and had mesh panels not solid. Also there were little platforms on the stage side of the barriers which is what Adam stood on when he went to the fence and as much as people are bitching about people groping his butt they were also balancing him because with the crowd shoving from behind they would have knocked him right off the fence. Also straight out from the stage was a street an across that street was a cafe with tables and umbrellas not a line of trees like in the picture. If you haven't already, please post it here first. Then it can be archived wherever. ![]() |

Hi Holst - Re: Gaga and the anthem. Every singer I've heard since forever tries to go high at that spot. Most can't do it, or do a terrible job. Gaga was good, but I think Adam was better :-) And I understand why she changed the words, just not a fan of that kind of thing. I would really prefer it just be done as written, but then it's not my favorite piece of music, anyway. Thanks so much for responding. I don't watch any sports events and don't keep track of how people sing it. |

aleksandrakv, I hope you can get in long enough to post your thoughts ... can't wait to read them. I also hope mouse 2.0 survives. After reading your response to the article I posted, I wasn't sure if I had made myself totally clear that the article just reminded me of Adam because, well, everything reminds me of Adam in some way. Anyway, I posted the following disclaimer above the previous post. ETA: I AM NOT SURE I WAS CLEAR WHEN I FIRST POSTED THIS BUT THE ARTICLE IS NOT ABOUT ADAM AT ALL, IT IS ABOUT STAGECRAFT, IT IS JUST THAT I THINK ABOUT ADAM EVERY TIME I READ SOMETHING LIKE THIS. Oh darlin, you were probably clear to everyone but me, I'm sorry for misinterpreting your post. I'm still on Adam high, lost in the halo of the sweat he kept shaking off himself:))) You know me, I saw Vega, and laundry, and gave my completely amiss, dazed and confused, 2 cents:))) Sorry:) Adam messes with my focus:) Combined with heat and tasty, refreshing beverages... it's a lethal combo:) |

I am going to cross my fingers now and try to post. What I need to say is: I LOVED ADAM IN ORLANDO AND I AM SO VERKLEMPT THAT I NEED TO WRITE ABOUT IT. Maybe I'll be able to post it, Atop's been messing with me big time. Not only was I unable to log in, I couldn't even open the forum a few times. My poor mouse was the unsuspecting victim of my frustration. Got a new one. Atop's still wonky. Butterknife, thank you SO MUCH for the stream, and that amazing full set video!!! [kissy smiley here, three times:)))] Okay, here goes... SO, HURRY UP AND WRITE ABOUT IT!!!   We need to hear EVERYTHING you're thinking about Orlando!!!  |

I'm curious. How much do y'all think Adam earned from the Universal gig? For how hard he worked and how much he sweated, I hope it was a good pay day. I saw that the 1 day admission to the park is $92.00. (Wow)If Adam drew, say, 2500 extra people to the park that day, that would be $230,000 for the park, just for admission. That doesn't count all the cash they would spend in the park for food, trinkets, and expensive bottles of water. I figure that gives the management lots of profit to spend on Adam. What do you think?

I have no idea of course, but my thinking is that since Pittsburgh Pride allegedly paid $200K, he wouldn't do Universal for less than that. I am sure they have a sizable entertainment budget and the profit from extra people coming to the park is - as you said - much, much more than just the entrance tickets. |

And he did a longer concert at Orlando, so likely more like $250K. Let's hope we get the longer concert at SD too!!! |
