of course you're right, we know nothing about them, just as we know nothing about Adam and yet we speculate and fret over the smallest things when he does something or says something that people don't fully understand. I was just offering my take on the tweet/video. I have always found the season 8 boys more than a tad disingenuous with their "friendships" towards Adam. My opinion and obviously no one is required to agree. Nothing will keep fans from speculating about what actually went on during Season 8. I think only one Season 8 contestant ever said that they did not get along with another contestant -- and the person who said that was Adam. As far as I know, Adam never clarified who he did not get along with except to say it was not Danny Gokey. The speculation at the time was that it was Scott and Adam who did not get along. It was not any of the women or Matt, Kris, Danny or Michael Sarver. So that leaves Anoop (who hung out with Adam so I do not think so) and Scott (who did not seem to be friends with any of the Season 8 finalists. And wasn't that something Adam said in a response to an interviewer's question? It wasn't like he just brought it up out of the blue as a talking point.

Moving 6 years on, I'm way more interested in the tweet from the radio DJ who's just listened to Ghost Town rihannsu retweeted Christopher K @ckontheradio 16m16 minutes ago Wow new @adamlambert #GhostTown very unique & cool! Starts acoustic, then chill dance beat kicks in chorus. Trippy dreamlike lyrics. Dig it! Really can't wait to hear this!!!!! This is the most specific description we've gotten so far. Add in the part about acoustic guitars which we learned last week, and the house beat we've heard. It is starting to make sense to me. Can't wait to hear it. ** No one who has heard the whole thing has mentioned anything "western". So maybe that clip is a bit deceptive. ** I guess the clip we have is the transition from the acoustic section to the dance beat chorus?

So do the radio people have some sort of timeline whereby they can start talking more specifically about a song? I.e.mrather than just saying "it's great', they can give a little more detail? It seems that helps build anticipation.

Yes, the interviewer was trying to get Adam to say that he did not get along with Danny -- instead Adam said something about not agreeing with him about anything but that he liked Danny. Then in an offhand was Adam said there was someone he didn't get along with and laughed.

I always thought it was Tatiana Del Toro, the interview I remember was with Adam, Kris and Allison. They all laughed and acted in agreement.

It seems that helps build anticipation. Yes, WBR reps tell them what and when they can say things. It is all planned in advance. And if a DJ, MD or PD breaches that, they get frozen out, loose promo deals and eventually have to find a new line of work. Same as reporters. If a media outlet breaches an embargo, no one will trust them with advanced news.

I guess I'll be doing a lot of scrolling today so I'll just say my piece for anyone who is reading. I LOVE ALL of the season 8 guys and gals. LOVE that the guys who live in and around Nashville were able to come together in a place they could all meet up at. I do not feel that Adam was left out of anything, I'm sure that if he had been doing road shows together with them as they have been doing with each other and was in the area he'd be there just like the four of them. They mentioned Adam because if they hadn't they would have gotten flak for leaving him out. Matt mentions him and gets chewed out for an April Fools joke. If I were them I would plant my feet as far from Adam and his fans as was humanly possible because it seems that for some Adam fans there is no way for them to be friendly without being a suckup. I love Matt's voice and he's fun to watch on the piano Gokey sound's pretty decent if he's not trying to hard and he does good things with his foundation Sarver is a teddy bear and has tried very hard to be in a good place with the Glamberts Kris wore nail polish on his home town visit and in my book can do no wrong and I buy most of his music (he was my DS favorite) So I guess I should get off my soapbox here and move over to my twitter account and send them positive Glambert vibes to even out my Libra scales of justice because antipathy towards them makes me bleed just like antipathy toward Adam. As a Mama glambear I consider them my cubs too. ITA, thanks for saying what I've been thinking. One of my favorite things about AI8 was the camaraderie among the contestants that year. It's good to see they have stayed friends.

I always thought it was Tatiana Del Toro, the interview I remember was with Adam, Kris and Allison. They all laughed and acted in agreement. I was thinking of an Adam Lambert (solo) interview at the end of May 2009. There is a thread about it on AdamOfficial from May 29, 2009 but the interview is not there. I don't think it was Tatiana. She was not on the same Semi-Final show as Adam, Kris and Allison. And she only made it to the Wild Card round which Adam, Kris and Allison were not involved in. But there could be a second interview where Adam, Kris and Allison cracked up about Tatiana because she was pretty funny and TPTB did bring her back for the Finale. *** In any case, it was 6 years ago. So it is a mystery we will have to live with.
