I didn't even try. I went to 11 concerts and I can barely remember the names of the cities. Royal Oak, that one on the river, Tenn, the one I went to in Ohio on the way home from Tenn, Erie (he sang 20th Century Boy for the first time and no one new what it was), Philly at the Tower where Queen also played, Bethlehem outside at some fair, I think I already missed one, Rockford?, Peoria where I had a meet-n-greet... Def not adding up. Oh yeah, I took my oldest daughter to Kentucky - Covington and Indy where they shot the DVD. wow, 11 concerts is huge! [laughs] I still had a toddler at home, so I was so happy with the shows I could get to! And by the way, I am STILL so damn grateful to Q3 and all the Planet Fierce folk (where we were at the time) who got me tickets to my local show. I was dealing with a horrible family medical emergency at the time, and they made sure I had tickets. The Baltimore and Richmond show tickets also came from PF'ers who had extras, and being able to get away for an occasional night during that time when I was dealing with a small child, a husband in recovery, and a completely unsympathetic work environment (nothing is better than being screamed at over the phone by your boss over paperwork while sitting in an ICU wondering if your husband is going to make it) made the situation more bearable. |

I'm fairly certain Q3 and many other Atopians have me beat. I never crossed the pond, either one of them. I never went more than a few hours driving distance from home. |

It was Lubbock, Texas, right? Definitely Lubbock. I was there. Mahailia wrote the definitive, photo-enhanced, loooooong-ass recap for Lubbock, in the Lubbock TX GNT thread: |

I made an attempt and got to 38 %, and learned a lot of things along the way. First of all, big cities does not help in many cases. i.e. no Philadelphia, who the hell has heard of Sayreville, NJ? I entered Hartford, New Haven, whatever I could think of, they wanted Ledyard. Really, are you kidding me. Thought of Lubbock, but did not get further than Lu_ _ _.
This is really hard, because Adam chose a lot of venues outside of big cities, in order to avoid the TM/LN monopoly on venues. i.e. I knew they were not in Chicago directly, but some 40 miles outside of town. Could not remember the town, but recognized it, once I saw the list. Then there are of course other challenges. i.e. you need to know how to spell Cincinnati, and you need to know that Thackersville has that 'h' in there, and other things that my spelling challenged brain could not master. I knew there was a concert south of Memphis on the Mississippi side, but could not remember the name of the place.
But still, even if I would have known those extra ones, I would have made it barely past 50 %. So, this was hard, but also a fun trip down memory lane. It is amazing how many concerts Adam gave in short order.
You guys remember the drag queen chase through the streets of Lansing? Or the various pre-show club-kid dances to 'I'm a single lady', or the revolving stages in Massachusetts, the let's throw some glitter on this barn, or the concerts in Hawaii? There is so much I had forgotten, and that little game brought a lot of it back.
Fun times.

So do you think Adam and his team well be releasing his first single around March? After the Queen Tour? Wondering if he may perform on the Billboard Music Awards. That is in Feb tho. Correct me if i'm wrong. I think the album well be vocal electro pop. But heard rumblings of a more rockish album. Who knows. But it well be new if anything.

I would be thrilled to have his album in March. I'm hopping hoping for Rock-Opera. LOL |
