Just a quick catch up post. I keep lurking, but never have enough time to post after I read all the comments I've missed.
First of all the Russian Concert was
AND the real-time comment thread was
as well. I forced myself to start from the beginning and let the whole thing unfold.
All the confusion from everyone was absolutely cracking me up and then Adam posts: Sound Check?? I'm confused.
Seriously surprised I didn't have to buy a new keyboard.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THAT CAPTURED THE VIDEOS AND PICTURES. All the worry was for nothing, he was INCREDIBLE!!!!
CASSIE - I'm so excited to get to hear you discuss BB's voice with someone at your level of knowledge. Congratulations for being asked to participate. I really hope there's a download because I will be working and won't be able to listen live. :-/
NICA - I'm sorry you got "used" by that horrible site. I'm also sorry that I was reading too fast and thought they had said something good so clicked the link. :-[
Q3 Maybe we could have a smiley that easily conveys a "don't click link" warning? I know I should have realized, but it made me so mad.
As to references to Adam's fans as
old broads etc. ....My theory is that if it weren't for us older fans, Adam wouldn't have the success he has. I would never have had the money or freedom to attend multiple concerts last year if I were still in college or had young children at home. Who would have been attending all those sold out shows and let TPTB realize there is money making potential there? Also, who would have the time to search out and read every item on the internet giving hits that encourage more publicity?
I would probably know how to rip the album without paying for it rather than buying every new product put out there, too.
I for one am thrilled when I see the young crowds all over the world and especially the boys in the audience. But I think we had a hand in making that possible and I think Adam knows that, too.
So Mothers, mother. It gets OTT to me, too, sometimes, but this should be a safe place to do it.
Haters, hate. We just need our Force Fields Up.
Whew. Noon here, and I'm not dressed yet. Sorry for the long post.
