I like the wink! I can't see how the HDD SPS for Adam is right. They have him at 44,341 total SPS with 41,112 in sales. That is only 3,169 in total TEAs and Streaming. The numbers do not work with what we know about streaming and track sales. Read those HDD # with a rock of salt. I think he clearly has #2 is sales but could be #2 on the Billboard 200 too. I don't understand how Hilary Duff has nearly twice as many stream-equivalent albums as Adam. Hilary Duff - 6,369 Adam - 3,229 It is not sensible. I will wait for Billboard and I will be thrilled with anything in the Top 3.

We can only hope, but most of those lineups are pretty set already. It is a real shame that he has never been a part of the summer festivals, I think performances in venues like those could go a long way in increasing his visibility to the younger crowds. He has been part of summer festivals but it was ages ago when you were just a little tyke I recall the balloon thing in Canada and a few overseas. None of the biggies in the US come to mind. I was referencing ( not clearly) events like Bonnaroo or Coachella not county fairs or jingleball type events.

That's something that crossed my mind too. I would forget that one. The AO.com presale was accounted for -- but it was probably an estimate. I know, my (wishful) thinking was that the AO sales may have been unusually high and thus likely to be underestimated by HDD.

It also looks likes HDD is low on Taylor Swifts SPS number -- I am happy with #3/#2 for Adam. I do not think #2 or #3 rank for an album matters that much. But above 40K does matter. Why is over 40k a magic number?

I would love him to play Ultra (Miami -- this audience would love Ghost Town!!), Coachella, Summerfest, Lollapalooza, Governor's Ball, Bonnaroo, Firefly (my favorite!!) and a few others.

He did Tango Wango or Wango Tango or whatever that was etc etc. Adam played a few state fairs --- The Washington State Fair in Puyallup, Orange County, San Diego County, Arizona State Fair, etc. and a number of family-oriented civic fairs like Musicfest, Bethlehem, PA. What he has not played are the destination music festivals. Not one of them. The 300 artists in 5 days events. This is Firefly -- in Dover, DE. I did not go this year because of the GMA but last year I was there oldest person there except for Mr. Q3. I will be back there in 2016 unless Adam f's up my schedule again!! (I do the VIP passes because I am not ending up in that mob.) ETA: Adam did play a couple festivals with Queen (Korea and Japan) and is headed to one of the biggest in the world in September but that will not reach the audience that is at these alt-pop-rock-EDM festivals.
