I really loved the surreal, artistic photos from the Schon magazine shoot -- until I read the credits below one of the photos and saw the word "taxidermy." If only they had used an artificial zebra head instead of a real one! (Or better yet, a live zebra.) Realizing that the head of a once-living, beautiful animal was being used as a photo prop made me sad and angry that too many of these creatures are hunted down for sport. Sorry if I'm coming across as a Debbie Downer. But I care deeply about animals, and feel strongly about mistreatment of them. And I think taxidermy is barbaric. Maybe too much of Brian's animal activism has rubbed off on me. (Not sure he'd love this set of photos.) I'm not criticizing Adam for this shoot; I'm sure he didn't see, or intend, anything negative in doing it. It's just that animals are a hot button issue for me. And there was nothing wrong with the shower picture, so at least I have that to appreciate! I agree with you 100%. The only time a severed head would make me smile would be if it belonged to Dick Cheney. (Oh, relax, FBI. That was a joke.) I don't even like the idea of using a fake head if it is realistic-looking, because it still glorifies the idea of killing an animal and displaying its head. It reminds me of that asshole dentist who killed Cecil the lion so he could hang his head on a wall. I was arguing this point over at Adam Without Pity and feeling like a big buzzkill, but I can't get past it. I won't be looking at these photos again. Fortunately, there is no shortage of gorgeous Adam pics out there that I can enjoy without having to look at a display of animal parts.

Help!!! I still can't get on. Can someone send me a link??? All I get is a big picture of dam but no place to click and purchase tickets??? HELP!!! Big red 'purchase tickets here'. q104.cbslocal.com/holidayshow/Thanks Guys for your help! I spent so much time on the phone with customer service and finally got the link but when I clicked to purchase 2 great tickets, the site rebooted and I lost them!! I used your link Linda and got 2 seats in row P center. I tried again just for a single seat for the heck of it and got ROW E dress circle B dead center so I bought that too!!! So now I have 3 tickets but only need 1 of them. Perhaps other fans may want them> I am just throwing money at Adam today, but so happy!!. I will be coming from Milwaukee and hope to connect with some Atoppers.

Please help! I have had a nightmare trying for Q104 Cleveland tickets this morning echoing vikkisusann (sp?) entry.
To make a long story short, I have one ticket in Row G and need another ticket as close as possible. Does anybody have a ticket close to Row G center for sale?
Thanks, for everyone's help. Problem solved and I have my needed extra ticket. Remember having this nightmare ticketing experience the last time Adam was in Cleveland years ago.
Dec. 7 can't come soon enough. Hoping for more near me.
