Good to hear from you dietcoke, hope bamafan is ok, and all others in AL. And all areas hit by tornadoes. Don't know what's up with the weather this year, but it sure has been crazy for all parts of the country. I think Mother Nature is mad 'cause there won't be a GNAFL tour. She is a female, after all.

So glad to hear Needacoke is safe. Now I hope we hear from bamafan that she is safe. OT but I got an email from a friend I thought I'd share with you encase anyone is interested. This month cell phone numbers go public to the telemarketing companies. The sale calls you get will be billed to you. If you would like to prevent this call the Do Not Call List number 888-382-1222. It will block your number for 5 years. You must call from the cell phone whose number you want to have blocked. The whole thing takes about 20 seconds. I just thought I'd pass this along. I'm not sure if this is correct. See attached link. urbanlegends.about.com/od/business/a/cell_directory.htmOK. Thanks. I'm not really sure. Do you think I should delete my post? I don't want to give false information.

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!! Adam replied to my song suggestion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tweeted this: NoAngelPF NoAngelPF @adamlambert A tripped-out Burning Man psychedelic vision with mad beats & pulsing drums! 6 minutes ago And he replied (OMGGGGGGGGGGGG) adamlambert Adam Lambert @noangelpf you can count on that! 3 minutes ago BRB flailing until the end of time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my god I've been totally busy and missed all the twitter fun until now. NoAngel! I think I'm probably practically as excited about this tweet exchange as you are, and not for your sake (though I love you BB) but for my own cause this sounds like an awesome fuckin song and "organic" (LOL) in the BEST POSSIBLE WAY!!! I can't wait to hear "NoAngel's Song" on the actual album. THank you, BB, you rock!! I'm so bummed I missed the twitter party because I totally have a song request and while I'm not on twitter I'da asked one of you lovely people to tweet it to him for me, but now its too late? Cause I would die if Adam had a "narrative" song on his album, you know, a song that tells a story about a person, not him. Something lyrically strong and unusual. Classic examples are the Beatles "Eleanor Rigby," Paul Simon's "Lincoln Duncan," MJ's "Billy Jean,"--I'm sure there are many other even awesome-er ones but you get the idea. I'd love to see something like that, something kinda outa the box and not the standard love/party/heartbreak song. But I'm twiliterate, as I like to say, and dunno how I could squeeze that request into 140 characters anyway. I'll have to just hope for Che Mascara instead, LOL (LOVE THE LAMBERT MEN!!) CHE MASCARA ETA: Everyone out in the wind: BE SAFE

after last night's discussion about fans following Adam's family and friends, I wonder how many of them would be known or benefit from their generosity Monte's Kickstarter..$50,000 Lisa Pittman...baby shower gift cards Tommyjoe.. $4000 Apple Gift Certificate for a new computer donations to help pay for medical expenses incurred during his Dad's illness. Longinue lighted drumsicks..no cost for fans Sasha..donations for her niece Mia if she is on SYTYCD, I'm sure Adam fans will support her Scarlett and Lee Cherry...Labor of Love album and photos of Adam Neil piano cost? Alison Porter Pennyroyal Skingraft Charity Water Donors Choose I not suggesting that supporting any of Adam's friends is wrong, or that they have even complained..but I don't think a lot of people would even know about them if it wasn't for him, so it is a two way street..I do feel for Cheeks. because he seems to resent the attention he is getting because of Adam and really I can't blame him.. I'm sure some of these people would be recognized on their own merit or talent, but I think knowing Adam has helped Cheeks isn't on this list. He is in a very different position than the other friends. The rest haven't experienced hatred. Brad has never asked fans for money for himself, only charity. I don't see him being jealous of Adam's career. I can see it being difficult to have and "ex" that you just can't escape. Not only old pictures of when things were good between you, but also pictures of the "ex" with someone new. Adam being everywhere and smiling with Sauli has to be hard, no matter how long ago their relationship ended. The pictures are very different with Sauli than Drake. Adam's attitude is very different. Brad's feed has been filled with hateful fans tweeting him pictures of Adam and Sauli. Making immature comments about Adam being happy. How hard is it for Brad to date again? Is it intimidating for someone to get in a relationship with someone that has a famous ex? Adam has always said he has only been in love once. That answer becoming "twice" would have to hurt. We don't know their complete history. We only know that Brad had enough character and respect for Adam not to sell his story (Is there any doubt he could?). We also know that Adam has never said one thing bordering on negative about Brad. Relationships don't work for a variety of reasons, but being forced to watch the other move on still stings. RE: Brad sucking it up and not whining because he is famous. He has the trappings of fame without the benefits. He is still a struggling young artist with more fame than money. Cassie, I love your post from last night. Just to be fair, Cheeks has benefited from the reflected fame, and in part has hinted at his past relationship to do so. He addresses that in this response to a comment on his "Sparkle Sharper" post: I think of course he has been very discrete and kudos to him for being a decent human being, but just because he isn't selling a physical object - an album or a calendar, or a series of live shows, doesn't mean he isn't selling hits on a website or intending to do so (there is a donate here link). Previously he marketed himself as a kind of clever and positive web comedian, a youtube version of Michelle collins for lack of a better analogy, plus put out a few music singles. Now I'm not quite sure what form his site will eventually take, but it's a combo of a lot of things - a design tumblr, quasi-spiritual/self-help advice, music remix postings, pet photos, and again, driven by hits and comments. Many of his most active participants are Adam fans, and in his follow up comment weyume.com/2011/04/27/holla-back-6/ he makes clear that he is fine with that, he just doesn't want to hear criticism from anyone who is not actively commenting with equal heapings of praise. I grant that you could give him points for not asking for money for some form of physical art project, but I wouldn't hold it against him if he did. It's up to him to decide what to create and sell, and it looks like, at the moment, the most tangible thing he is offering is a cult of personality and some insightful essays? Correct me if I'm wrong. (I just get pretty confused with the talk about his "art" and his "talent" when it isn't currently taking a very concrete form). I just think it's interesting that all his friends are dealing with the surge in fanbase in different ways, and all are in some ways benefiting. (Though I grant that a trickle of inappropriate relationship comments and insinuations are probably a pain to deal with--and reached a breaking point with him).

'cause lots of people are still sending him idea tweets. You should sign up for twitter though, it's super easy. You just need to go to twitter.com and create a username and password. Then you can follow another Adam fan and get links to Adam and related people through them to make it simple and quick.
