Sorry I didn't mean to repost that. I don't know how to reply to a specific post. I want to comment on the fact that no one moved after seeing Queen and AL in concert. I work at MTS Centre in Winnipeg where they performed on night 2 of their tour. Of course I was in the front row that night so I wasn't working the show. But everyone is still talking about how that was the best concert they ever worked at because the music was outstanding!! They were a little annoyed that they weren't too busy selling beer and food during the whole 3 hours of their shift. They said no one left the concert to buy anything and when they did they commented on how they didn't want to leave but they needed to use the washroom or buy something quickly. Lol By working different genres of concerts we see a lot of fans loitering around during the show. They chill in a corner talking to each other and some even watch on the tv screens. Not during QAL. Everyone stayed in their seats for the whole concert making it truly a ghost town for those poor workers who had nothing to do or serve anyone for a full 2.5 hours. Almost a year later and tons of concerts later they are the show everyone is still talking about. Kat, I was at the MTS Centre too, 2nd row in the stands. (After that one, I knew I had to see them again -- fortunately I know someone who lives near Toronto who was game to go with me.) You had first row seats?? LUCKY lady!!!! |

When I click on the quote it reposts it again. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. After clicking the quote button what do I do next to allow me to comment on a specific post? When I open the the reply or quote box, I always tap BBCode first. I find it easier to see what I'm doing. As cassie said, post your comments after the [ / quote ].  Thanks for this tip, ladies! I just tried it, and it's much easier when using the BBCode.  |

THe official guidelines are:" Viewers interested in joining "GMA" in Central Park are encouraged to arrive at Rumsey Playfield via the 72nd street entrance on Fifth Avenue at 6:00am when the park opens to the public."
From my experience back in the summer of 2009: - the line-up started at the 72st & 5th ave entrance at some crazy time of 10 pm the evening before (I've asked people in front) - I got there at around 3 am and there were several hundred people ahead of me - Once the park opened they let the line enter the park in a very organized manner, so that no one ran, lots of security people directing the line movement - Inside: There is a large open space in front of the stage and rafters way back. THis is where it became a bit crazy as people tried to get a "closer" spot. -there is no limit on how many people in your party, as there is no "party" per say Now keep in mind this was the post idol craze of 2009 AND Kris Allen and David Cook were part of the concert. There was a huge amount of DC's groupies, as well as some KA fans. I am not sure this time will be anywhere close to the madness and fever of that summer. But hey, may be it will ... I hope it is a smash, wish I was closer. Adam needs many younger fans at this concert. I hope older fans bring along their kids, nieces and nephews, whoever, to make it an all ages send off for era 3! I do not think you need to worry. All this talk about older fans is way overblown. There will be a lot of people there of all ages. > Anyone who has attended Adam concerts knows that except for the concerts that many fans fly to (New Years Eve) and QAL, Adam's concert audience is very diverse and not filled with older fans. For example. he has many fans who were pre-teens during Idol -- who are now 21. > JMHO, please do not fill this audience up with a bunch of non-fans dragged there by their moms, aunts, grandmas in the hope of doing something good. First and foremost, the audience needs to be filled with fans. ETA: This is a FREE concert. Not a $250 ticket plus a flight or some other huge cost. |

www.shazam.com/news/things-weve-learned-15-may#1. Adam Lambert’s comeback is going very well indeed The US star has leapt to #69 on our global chart after just two weeks. ‘Ghost Town’ could be the tune that makes him a worldwide star.
