I had a crazy afternoon & dying to tell everyone!!! I didn't have m&g tickets to any radio stations but I live 25 min's away from my favorite radio station 106.5, who's actually been playing Ghost Town at least 3x's a day, my husband hears it often coming home from work. I don't have a lot of patience for radio & play the album when in my car. My husband found 106.5's address & location for me, which wasn't so easily advertised anywhere. I was off wk today & decided to head up there to see if I'd be able to get a glimpse of Adam. He was supposed to be there at 3:30 at 2:50 I was in the car heading to target to get the CD real quick just in case I was able to maybe get an autograph. (I Already have multiple ITunes albums explicit Regular. & deluxe & non-explicit deluxe). I hear the DJ say "ohhh look who's early-Adam Lambert just walked in!" But he said he was going to be there for an hour, so now I knew I was only maybe going to be able to catch him when he was leaving, but felt it was probably still worth it to go & see what happens. It was fine because this way I was able to listen to whole interview on radio while going up there. My 4 year old was with me & she was upset when she heard he was there already & she really wanted to see him. She loves so many of the songs on the album, TOH, The Light, ALN ( she loves the moo) EITN, Rumors. I told her ok we'll still go. Well somehow I got really lost couldn't get onto the correct street somehow. I got turned around like 4 times. Anyway I wasted like 15 min's. Then it's 4 pm I hear the DJ say bye Adam. I am about 8-10 min's away, I head there anyway thinking he'll chat w/ people a bit maybe so maybe he won't be gone yet. Meanwhile my 4 yr. old fell asleep like 20 min's ago. I finally see the building but wasn't sure it was the actual building Adam was in. I circle the building Meanwhile I'm trying to get my daughter to wake up. Then I pass by the main entrance, glass doors, getting ready to park to watch to see if Adam will come out. Right as I'm passing the doors I'm looking at them & I thought maybe I saw Adam's head. I just back in & sure enough these 3 guys are walking out & holy crap it's Adam. I wasn't even backed in all the way, I leap out of my car saying "Adam, hi how are you, oh my gosh." Honestly it was hard to talk. I told him how we got lost & my 4 yr. old was crying because we weren't going to make it & now she fell asleep but she's waking up & asked him if he would say hi to her. He said sure, meanwhile his Manager or person was like "No, we can't we have to go". Adam said "we have more radio stations we have to get to." He said it very sweetly & apologetically looking straight in my eyes. I was shaking the entire time literally. I couldn't believe just he & I were having this conversation. The other 2 guys got in the car that was just 2 spots next to me. I told him my daughters name is Ali & she loves the album & can name almost all the songs. He peeked In the car a little to see her & said, "Hi Ali". He was kind of standing at my passenger side front door. I told him I've been to all his concerts & that she has been to one too. She was actually still in my belly for one. He said, "the Queen one", I said, "No Glam Nation" He said, "Yeah, she's older than that." I said, "Yeah, she's 4.5." My daughter was still 1/2 asleep I opened her door to let her see Adam better & for Adam to see her, I didn't have time to let her out of her car seat & she was too sleepy still to even get out. I then asked him if he would sign my CD he said sure. Meanwhile I had to dig in my center console to get it out & he waited. I handed it to him still shaking. Then he yells over to the other guys does anyone have a pen or sharpie. I said, " I do" I then reached in my purse to find my sharpie, luckily it was right there so he didn't have to wait too long. He signed his name & asked me which song was my favorite. I told him all of them, then I said no seriously I love The Original High. Then I asked him if I could have a hug & he said sure & he gave me a hug!!!! OMG I couldn't believe it. Then I got in my car still shaking & realized I didn't get a pic. Crap he was in the car I tapped on the window to see if I could get a pic real quick but they had to go & i couldn't get my camera on my phone to work right it was on selfie mode & I just wanted to take a pic real quick of him through the window, but I was shaking & couldn't get it to switch quick enough so I got a pic of him as they drove passed me. He looked at me & gave me the peace sign but the window was up so not a great pic. I will post later. OMG seriously still can't believe it, I was in shock whole way driving home. Sorry so long but had to share my crazy meeting of him & how I still can't believe how it worked out. The really cool part was he that he was just so genuinely sweet & really was spending time with me, it was like he was flattered that we did all that to see him. He walked over to the side of my car (opposite of where his car was) to see my daughter he was sooo nice & has just this calm relaxed presence about him. He wasn't really rushing me at all. I felt bad I was taking up his time time because I knew he had a busy schedule but told him I really appreciated him doing this for me. Thewhole thing was probably 2 minutes just wish I had hopped out w/ my cell phone in my hand so I could have gotten a pic. Anyway he made my year. I was going to tell him that I was supposed to go to GMA (b-day present from hubby) but couldn't go last minute. I also was going to congratulate him for his #3 debut on BB. There was no time & my head was spinning & literally it was like only 1/2 my brain was working. Anyway I love this site & again because someone posted his radio schedule for today I was able to plan for it. I wouldn't have known otherwise. Aww, congrats, alisgr8! I'm so happy for you and your little daughter that Adam stopped at your car for a moment to talk to you, how sweet of him!

alisgr8! WOW! Your narrative was like a stream of thought . . . I felt like I was there! Haven't had a chance to read the thread or listen to TOH all day; just now, I sat in the dark, yeah, had a little wine, and listened. Maybe I'll feel differently tomorrow, but right now, right now, ALN just took me away . . . even further than The Original High. Doesn't mean a thing! Because, THE song that really, really is finding me (or, maybe it's the other way round) is After Hours. Is there a chance in hell it could be a single? I think it would uproot pop radio!! Enough of me. Goodnight! I really like After Hours too. Did you see this fan video that was posted yesterday? After Hours Adam Lambert www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pm10tS0_nk

"It is not a Moo. It's a Yeah...YEAH! Get over the Moo!" -Adam Lambert
I think the next single will be TOH. Guess it boils down to believe Adam or don't believe Adam. I choose to believe him. eta - sorry I don't have a sense of humor about this, but I think it would be damn awkward at concerts if fans start shrieking "moo" during his performance. That's all. I have played this song for many ,not one mentioned a moo sound.. I don't find this funny especially since Adam has asked us to get over it.. Can we listen to him,It's his song and we are his fans.. I can think about more important things to rebel against in the world can't you?? ..LOL To Add I think GT has a lot of life in it yet.. did it just make that golden 100 list?

I don't think anyone is saying he is lying. It's just that, try as we might, many of us are not hearing anything that sounds like "yeah." The sound is so distorted.

I guess I'll go with Adam's other advice--"it's not that deep" and "it's just entertainment." It's too bad some people feel offended by other's light-hearted joking. I don't feel it's any different than typing "fianlly" (old joke), naming his hair styles funny names, or any of the many things we joke about. We're all here because we like the guy, but I do not follow blindly. He made a "get over it" remark, which people say all the time. It's not a command and it's not that big of a deal to me. Anyways, I won't convince those who see otherwise, and I'll continue to hear it as "moo" and smile every time.

I think there is a difference between having fun with the moo and joking about it among ourselves and yelling moo at a concert. The latter seems disrespectful to Adam and to other concert goers.

Are people assuming some fans are going to yell "moo"? Or has this already happened?
