I spent a few minutes of my morning having a skype chat with Monte Pittman.(Incentive for his Kickstarter Project.) He was so ...very ...very cool and easy to chat with; and even though I thanked him, wished him well, and said our time was up, he/we went a roll for another 12 minutes...which was very generous of him. (Same qualities he and the band displayed at River Rock).
Atopers were asking for any news or updates regarding the upcoming concerts.
As of this morning..nothing monumental ...but at least an up-date:
I refrained from asking anything about Adam as I wanted to make it about him and his new music etc....until he brought up his exciting news about the concert in Moscow. And I added... “and the new concert in Quebec”. What?? ...he did not know about that one!
Right away he tried to find it on Adam's site to check it out...couldn’t find it fast enough, so we continued our chat. He shook his head, laughed and said he will add July 29th to his calendar.
The rest of Monte’s conversation on this topic, makes one realize that he/the band are session performers...as he knew nothing of the Quebec concert. I would have thought Adam would have asked the band about their availability and checked to make sure he had a band to perform with him...but... I guess not!
I asked 2 questions about the Moscow concert: Monte thinks Moscow will be Jingleball style, not GNT style, and he said he said that everyone in the band will be there. They have not worked out details yet. (Surprised him that I knew the dates of when others finished concerts or tours...so I was hopeful they would be available).

Hey to everyone.... Thanks for doing what you do! Tweets, vids, pics, articles, hilar recaps, etc.
I finally got the courage to do what must be done and sent my dear doggie to the rainbow bridge to wait for me. Coming here has helped me feel better.

I would have thought Adam would have asked the band about their availability and checked to make sure he had a band to perform with him...but... I guess not! They are definitely independent contractors. This is something I realized right in the beginning. I could never understand why people thought the band should have a name when they are not a band but a group of independents. edit: As far as contacting the "band" about concerts, I'm sure it's Adam's management that contacts them with the details. I'm sure Adam & Monte have an understanding, and the details are left up to administration (contracts, travel arrangements, etc.). On the morning that Adam was canceled from GMA, it was us from Twitter that told Monte. The band had no idea. There was also another occasion where the band found out from Twitter, but I can't remember which one. |

Re: Gaga's video. So, some gays have developed a different version of the Christ story in which Jesus is gay and Judas was Christ's gay lover and being kissed by Judas is what gave Jesus away to the authorities. But Judas didn't mean to give Jesus away. Jesus was then hung as the gays were hung in those days, on the cross. In Gaga's video by saying she's still in love with Judas is she saying she loves this gay man even though the gay man, Judas, is Jesus' lover? Is she saying that Jesus lied to her three times by being with Judas instead of her? Or that Judas lied to her three times by being with Jesus. She holds a gun to the chest of Judas with Jesus looking on. Why is Jesus her virtue and Judas the demon she clings to? In the gay version Jesus is gay and the messiah. But why is Judas the demon? Has anyone already analysed this? Or have a good analysis link? She is stoned in the end by the masses. Is she stoned because she was friends with two gay men, because she washed their feet? Is she stoned because she was a prostitute? She plays the part of Mary Magdalene, the woman in the bible who lived a sinful life who washed Jesus' feet with her hair and perfume. [Bridge] In the most Biblical sense,
I am beyond repentance
Fame hooker, prostitute wench, vomits her mindBut in the cultural sense I just speak in future tense Judas kiss me if offensed, Or wear ear condom next time I wanna love you, But something's pulling me away from you Jesus is my virtue, Judas is the demon I cling to I cling to Sorry if the discussion has moved on, and Imma let you finish, but I want to speak for MM paraphrasing Adam, "I WAS NOT A WHORE!!!!!!" >:(  It's been widely acknowledged that MM was in fact probably the thirteenth disciple and perhaps his #1 confidant. The priests purposely turned her into a whore centuries later because...well they were misogynistic assholes who wanted to keep women in their place. The Vatican has acknowledged this but the myth lives on. I don't find it implausible the Jesus and his disciples could have been gay. It would make a kind of sense when none were married at such an age during that time. Maybe MM was his fruit fly? Or maybe his lover? If you are interested in Mary Magdalen's story Nation Geographic did a show on it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pb17NbNaUU8 |
