Is it just me are does it look like Adam's feet slipped a little when moving on the bar after his glory note at about 2:03-04?! Every time I watch the video I want to grab him from falling off the bar.LOL!

Someone suggested the other day that we do wristbands for QAL. Babs12 and I were talking yesterday, and thought about the KISS--keep it simple stupid--approach. How about picking a bright color (DAYGLO or Atop green for Adam's snake?) ribbon and wear it in one loop like the breast cancer symbol on our lapel or upper torso? The one loop sort of looks like an "A" for Adam or Atop. That way each of us could bring our own 1/2inch to 1in wide ribbon and a safety pin and we'd be all set. I prefer lapel or torso because I think wrists are often difficult to see. (and interfere with jewelry). Day-glo Green probably would stand out against any AToppers outfit, and one such ribbon would work for all concerts. What say you ATOP? Sound like a plan? can I inquire what the purpose for these ribbons would be? Are we trying to seperate ourselves from the "regular" Queen fans or is this so we can spot fellow Atop members and say hello? I don't get it. I don't think it has anything to do with separating Queen fans from Adam's fans -- I thought the purpose was to identify Adamtopia members so, if you wanted to, you could go up and introduce yourself. After all, we "talk" a lot. For some of us it's fun to put a name with a face. If you don't want your "cover" to be blown, don't wear a ribbon. |

You cannot separate the Queen fans from the Adam fans unless you want do this to me!  ** Regarding the ATop ID -- I like the subtle wrist ribbon idea. I suggest that we make it ATop/PF (Planet Fierce) because there are many PRers who are quite connected to the fans here. And that is were this all started. Over the years of Adam touring I have gone to so many concert alone because I knew I would not be alone when I got there. I know many, many other ATop and PRers who do the same thing. It makes it easy to connect with other people that you have only met in digital space. I am unlikely to wear a ribbon to a concert -- not my style -- but I also now know so many Adam fans that I have met at prior events. (My problem is connecting the real people to the digital IDs. I am not good at that!) |

I think light green ribbons are a great idea, and nobody is forced to do this, if they don't want to participate. I don't think the neon glow is the most important point, but if you are at Michaels or whatever craft store and you have choice of 5 different greens, then select a lighter and brighter one, rather than a darker green one. That's all. I don't think you want to be so neon green that the corners of the arena where Adam fans got most of their tickets look like some swarm of lightning bugs have invaded the place.
It's just, so we recognize each other, and feel free to approach and meet folks. Everybody is free to do as they please and if you don't like the idea, then no problem and no pressure. I think it's a great idea, and does not require organizing and ordering wrist bands. Thanks for suggesting it.
ETA: Oh, and Adamrocks, I think that Adam is just turning around there, he does not seem off balance to me, just watchful, as he is on top of a bar and does not want to miss his footing or kick something over.

Thanks for all the clarification everyone.
Babs12 and I are glad we went with our 2nd choice, as the flaming top hats probably would have been somewhat controversial!
Purpose: to identify Atop people for those who want a visible cue. I'm shy and I never knew how fun it would be to meet Atop peeps.
Supposed to be inclusive, not exclusive. Anywhere you want to wear a green ribbon is fine. You can even bring your own "ole oak tree."

I don't see it but it was a good excuse to watch it again He was in control....doing a step over stuff on the bar, and a slight pivot, to maintain his balance as he moved to another position on the bar. Again another chance to check him out on a vid!  |
