With the way that many Adam fans go to multiple show, it can be advantageous to do the smaller (small to mid-sized) venues. There are many more smaller venues within a 4-5 hour drive from me than there are arenas. Since the cost is cheaper driving to near-by cities, I can attend more concerts at smaller venues than I could if I had to fly to go to arena shows. ETA - And smaller venues in more cities should pick up more casual fans. I know that I will not travel the 3-4 hours it would require to go to most pop arena concerts unless I am really into that artist. We do have an arena here, but mostly for sports. Only a very few artists, mostly country artists, could pull in enough fans to justify an arena show in my city. Maroon 5 is the only pop artists that I know of that has an upcoming show at our arena next September - their first time here. Even though I am not a big fan, I might just buy a cheap seat for that concert since I do not have to travel to go. Advantageous for the traveling band fans and for the local existing fans who don't travel. Small venues with only AL or AL+minor opening act are not likely to attract people who are not already fans at some level. The economics of a small venue means he has to hit many times more venues to generate any significant return on investment. In other words while nice for existing fans, not worth much at all for exposure to new ears and really hard on the artist. I don't think that it follows that arena concerts would generate more exposure than smaller venues except in very large cities. More of the USA can be covered in smaller venues, so a larger portion of the overall population can get exposure. Of course, it all depends on if people even know about the concert which depends on good advertising. Arenas are only going to generate larger revenue IF the artist can sell out the arena. If the arena is only 50% sold, then it would be more profitable to use a mid to large sized theater. Usage costs are much higher in arenas.

Safora Glambert @saforaglambert 20m20 minutes ago @adamlambert This is happening because of you (: When i became your Glambert i was finighing high school and i didn't what i wanted to do. c Safora Glambert @saforaglambert @adamlambert or who i want to be. But you changed my life. i find myself with your, in your love to your fans..you became my path, my guide Safora Glambert @saforaglambert @adamlambert You helped to find my way you have always shined your light on me and my life... now here i am, fighting for what i want (c) Safora Glambert @saforaglambert @adamlambert trying to not hide myself, tying to rise and shine and these all happening because you. i live because of you Safora Glambert @saforaglambert @adamlambert You are my breath, my world, my whole life and everything.... So i thought what i can do for you to thank you for all these (c) Safora Glambert @saforaglambert @adamlambert When i was working on BS thesis, i figured out i can dedicate my work to you Safora Glambert @saforaglambert @adamlambert So i did it Another beautiful example of how Adam is an influence in somebody's life. I guess he knows only half of what he means to the fans and how he influences people in so many different ways. We may worry about Adam being this big pop star but his influence in these ways on individual lives is what will make him an icon.

My point was that small venues where he is the sole draw is not productive for him as a mechanism to grow his fan base nor is it a big money maker when bounced against the wear and tear effort required to hit all those small venues. He will not be doing an arena tour on his own - no way he could sell that kind of venue on his own. To do any kind of arena tour or even a largish mid-size venue it would need to be with a larger or equal draw touring partner. Having a popular touring partner as well as the associated advertising is where the new eyes and ears would come from.

I loved that these adult BCC reviewers showed Adam the respect he deserves. Adam responded in this forum with one of his best interviews. I am a long time lurker, a role I am very good a and comfortable with. However, I have followed Adam closely since Idol, have bought all his music, seen all of his interviews, voted in poll after poll, watched every performance online, attended two GNT shows and and one QAL so I am a Glambert by behavior if not declaration. Thank you to everyone who works on this board. And Thank you to all posters. magneticresonance

Hi, I know I post here very rarely but I read pretty often... I would love that if Adam sang Running live... but wasn't there some kind of list of songs that needed to be approved for China concert or something and I think Running was not there... Although I did not understand much what the list meant... Running was my first thought while reading the post with Adam talking about his tour saying there are a few songs the fans haven't heard him to sing live yet. It would be so amazing if he choose Running for his THO tour. *fingers crossed*

I'm with you! Adam wants to play Arena, Alison's not going to help him do that and... it's not going to bring new fans. We don't know that Adam wants to play arenas -- all we know if that if he was on the Demi Tour he would be playing arenas. I am not expecting Adam do do a US arena tour -- that would be a big surprise. I am hoping for nice, mid-sized venues and a lot of cities in the US and Canada. Adam is playing arena in Finland I would prefer many small, intimate concerts
