So I was a +one and therefore eligible to keep entering the contest and now I just won tickets! Working on finding good homes for them. The word is this is not a singing event unless Adam decides to based on the crowd etc It is more an intimate walk through the album, questions etc. Radio peeps says they are very nice events and we will love it. Maybe like the SF event. We will see. Adam 2 nights in a row. Can hardly stand it! i truly do not understand. adam explicitly commented about "repeat offenders" yet he is, once again, going to see the same faces in the front row. no one seems to have listened or maybe they just don't care about adam. smh

I have seen Sam Smith twice live and he was great. He was better live than recorded. Both times were before his vocal issues arose. > I realize many ATop members are not Sam Smith fans and many are fans. I am in the middle -- I like him enough. But I think Adam is a SS fan. I think Adam was sincere -- it would be totally out of character for him to be snarky in that manner. When Adam does not like something (Kanye BoRhap, Les Miz, etc.), he says it plainly. I agree, as Adam says he saw Sam live well over a year ago which was long before any of the vocal issues. When Adam is snarking on something you can hear it in his voice and I didn't hear anything but honest appreciation of Sam's talent. I think Adam truly respects Sam's voice. They are so entirely different in style, etc., but I believe that, one singer to another, Adam understand Sam's skills. I like Sam well enough, but he kind of sounds the same all the time. Just me, I guess. He'll need to change his technique or something, unless he wants his vocal cords to get damaged again. It's important to sing properly when you go on tour. Adam seems to have incredible endurance, especially considering the type of songs he sings. He really showed his strength and power during QAL. He's got stamina and muscle control, both in his throat and chest. Great singing at that level is an athletic endeavor. Takes conditioning and control.

We don't get many promo opportunities to see Adam in Florida so why shouldn't the South Florida fans go to events in South Florida?

The story associated with the recording of Underneath is truly heartbreaker. That VH1 interview concentrated on his sexuality, not his music, then he has to come back and finish singing Underneath, a song about baring your soul and keeping no secrets, something he has done since Day One. That song is such a tour de force. It could have been an arena jaw-dropper, an Awards show thriller. But as we all know, that didn't happen. That song is virtually unknown to all but the core Glamberts. He has only sung it a few times live, I believe. It's an amazing song that wrenches my heart every time I hear it. I agree that it should have been a single. I hope he sings it live again, maybe on the next tour. He says he'd like to add some songs from his previous albums on the set list. Glad to hear him say that things are "bubbling" about a tour. Adam is so incredibly special. He needs to be seen and heard by everyone. He's as good if not better than anyone else out there who is doing very well. Hope his TOH album continue to deliver some high profile singles that keep the spotlight on him. Successful singles are the ticket to getting a tour.

OMGGGG!!!!!!!!!! IT IS HIM!!!!!!!!!!! Did not dare to believe it would be..... so excited!!!! now just gotta wait with all the stress of hoping and praying I win tickets (along with all my NZ Glambert friends)!!!!!!!! I hope you win too!! Thanks hun! Just heard this from someone who used to work for iheart radio here, and the odds of winning aren't great. :( These draws are always random. Each concert competition gets about 10,000 entires. IHeart usually has 500 tickets to giveaway, and 2degrees also 500. Then the stations have 500 also. 1500 all together. Draw is very random. Entering more than once won't help chances as they get rid of all duplicate names. Occasionally they create a "die hard fan" list, and any left over tickets that don't get picked up, go to those fans. Also on the day of show, they do last minute giveaways also.

You don't understand. There have been NO intimate radio events with Adam in South Florida in the last five years and possibly not in the FYE era. I wasn't here then so I can't swear to it. Only two or three of the So FL Glamberts have traveled to see Adam recently and only one of them was in the first row of GMA which was not exactly intimate. Most of them never have traveled to see Adam. The only concert chance after one Glam Nation concert was Fontainebleau - very expensive - in 2013. No other Trespassing events (Pride with 3 songs does not count) Tuesday night is NOT a radio event. It is a party hosted by a magazine and involves a fashion show etc. He is the entertainer. There will be a lot of milling around of all kinds of people. People bought tickets for this. Anyone has the right to buy a ticket like a concert. There are still tickets available. No one is taking up anyone else's space and there is no front row so to speak. I truly hope this is not going to be another round of bashing fans who finally have the chance to see Adam. We have been spending hours on this contest winning tickets for fans that don't get the chance to travel to see him. That has been our top priority. Judge us if you like but you have to be the one attending when you win a ticket and then you get to bring someone. If I did not enter, someone else deserving would not be going.
