Short notice yes, but I'm just thankful we have all day tomorrow to catch our breath, decide where we want to go and get our ducks in a row before the pre-sale on Wednesday (if that info is correct). I live about 15 minutes from the Tabernacle and I have a room booked in Nashville (that can be cancelled) so I feel like I'm already ahead of the curve if those are the only two shows I decide to do.

I couldn't give a rats ass for the machinery of announcements. The moving pieces and parts of it all are well beyond what people can imagine. What's important is that people know it's on. The dates are out there so they can buy tickets to the show. Whether there will be others or not is probably quite dependent on how this lot go. So if you can and want to then go and yay if there is another one later you can also go to. Just my opinion and no criticism of anyone here, but I don't see second guessing and back seat driving the professionals who support Adam as productive. I'm a fan. My job as fan is to buy his music, go to his shows, watch his videos - basically support him in whatever way makes sense. It is indeed a weird day and no way anyone could have predicted Adam's tour news would be buried under the avalanche of David Bowie's death. A sad confluence, but life goes on. None of us is getting out of here alive, it's just a question of time. I can only hope that Adam has a long career and an impact even a fraction of Bowies. #carryon #stilllovethemoo

checking out the SLS hotel and prices are over twice what they are now. Word is out? Plus the rooms are LV tacky, all white and gold with a mustard yellow thrown in. eta and a $32 resort fee, but you get free wifi Also, from what I can tell about the venue it is a multi use area (pool, bar, night club) Has VIP tables but mostly standing room venue with capacity of 2500. Not my favorite set up. There are probably less expensive places to stay in the area and do room sharing to help reduce costs. Be nice to find a hotel location close by with better rates and congregate there.

So, what does this mean? More dates maybe!!! it means his publisist did a crappy job of controlling the release and making sure the information was released at the preplanned time. The truth as I see it. My guess is that today was the official release date & these outlets had the pressrelease with an embargo date of today. With the Bowie news, Adam's team probably chose to hold off a few days, but not all outlets got the "hold" e-mail in time. It's happened before.

The Stratosphere is walking distance TY - any recommendation for accomodations close (few blocks walking) to the Orpheum in LA? Will prob fly into LAX.

Mixed feelings today. Congrats to all the US people who will be able to see one of the shows! Great news! I also think Adam might has asked to delay the news in respect for the news we all got this morning. I was just about to go to work when the news came in this morning of David Bowie's passing and it struck me harder than expected. I am not a fan, but familiar with his music. Guess the Adam connection made me mostly sad for him to have lost his Idol and I couldn't keep my tears in. Expecting Adam to incorporate Bowie in his next concert in some way. RIP Bowie!
