I saw Adam in Foxwoods and although he looked tired at the photo op, he sure didn't sound sick or act sick. He has sung the same set list since that night. I knew he had cut songs and there were several I would like to have heard, but my enjoyment of the performance was not diminished in any way. He has a very long road to hoe over the next 4 months and if dropping several songs is what he needs to do to protect that glorious voice, I think he can do that without people tweeting him, assuming he is sick, or feeling that he is short changing his fans, because everyone else sings more. I am really surprised by some of the remarks. Adam does not do a show like everyone else. It is high powered and vocally tiring. He has literally no break during the whole performance other than a couple of minutes to change. He dances and moves and expends a lot of energy! Maybe if he just stood there and sang, but I guess people would think there is something wrong because he is "low energy". I don't equate Adam's show to anything else out there and I think 75 minutes is great. That was how he got through the GNT tour in glorious fashion. Adam has to do what works for him and if he sounded strained vocally, everyone would be talking about that and discussing how to keep his voice where it needs to be for the tour. Maybe he is doing just that. Otherwise he might have to cancel shows like many of the other singers are doing because of their vocal cord issues. I would rather have 75 minutes of Adam than nothing and I felt like I certainly got my money's worth. If I cut anything, however, it would be the Photo Ops, that is just one thing too many, IMHO. I also might cut NCOE and put in one of the other songs, but that would be it. The show is perfect as it is! You guys are going to love it! I wish I were going to another one, as one night of Adam is never enough!!!

It is kind of funny somebody mention maybe Adam is under the weather, a few more post later and that becomes a fact: he looks tired, he sounds raspy etc, etc, etc. I don't care about the rumors babe!

I'm trying to collect my thoughts for a recap which seems to be an easy thing to do on the surface but on the emotional level it is proving to be "PM material"... So, i'll go with the "easy" approach 8-) This was my first of the two TOHT shows. I got to the venue during Alex's set, got to my row J center seat and immediately loved the "closeness" to the stage. I could see Alex perfectly, the sound was great, the theater looked packed, I tested mixlr (very easy to use btw) and I was ready for my original high :D ... and then Adam gets on the stage and as if the universe shifts and the stage moves away from me, and Adam is impossibly far...now...how did THAT happen? 8-| and it stayed this way until the end of the show at which point the stage moved back into it's proper place... sooooo... how close is close enough? The flow of time got shifted as well. Because no one can convince my feelings that Adam was singing for 75 mins... HE WAS NOT! it was more like 75 seconds of heavenly audio experience... pure perfection! At time I had to close my eyes to concentrate on "listening" -my old habit of isolating sounds from visuals - the latter, especially in Adam's case, are too distracting and he was to "far" to see well anyway... so, no hoarseness of any kind noticed throughout the concert... Mixed crowd, a decent amount of couples, a few children, a few boyz...many faces familiar from other NY area events...met mmadamiamadamm for the first time in person - what a warm and charming lady! Hugged theosgma, unfortunately there was no time to talk... our TALC goddesses were right in front of me doing their magic - I have to say they have the "process" down - amazing dedication... the "short" set was already discussed enough - I am hoping the Terminal 5 show will get lucky! Counting on the presence of media and industry and Adam's friends to bring all bells and whistles out!

Thank you Adam for this wonderful pic from M&G in Warsaw - one of the best TOHT concerts ever!

Him having cold would definitely explain it but on the other hand there were pictures of him being out with his friends and I think also in the gym with Terrance and I am not sure if he would if he was not feeling well.. haven't seen any videos from last night but during the casino shows he seemed more playful and relaxed than ever and sounded wonderful to me.. but maybe he is just very good at hiding it.... If he is not feeling well I hope he gets better soon, it has to be so stressful be sick when you are on tour. Actually, there are no pics of him out with his friends other than eating dinner. This might be more proof he is under the weather because if we were out at clubs and such, there would be pap photos for sure. I think doing the cycling exercise just shows his commitment to getting better. Shimoli, if you missed them, there is an incredible set of videos from Atlantic City by TALC. Could be some of the best I have ever seen. Absolutely perfect! Oh thank you Pattihum. So I got it wrong. It wasn't AC, it was the show before - Foxwoods (yeah, Friday - I was listening to it on Saturday early morning). It was the first day he shortened the set list. At the very end of the show he really sounded tired and without energy. But it could be by the stream, who knows.

I wish I were going to another one, as one night of Adam is never enough!!! Speaking from the sidelines (and agreeing with you), as I don't get to any shows... comparing Adam to others who do a lot of dancing in their shows, he's actually SINGING while he's dancing! I admire his energy. He does sing for 90 minutes in the QUEEN shows, but he had some long breaks between sets. I doubt the photo ops will go away. That's a lot of money that's almost pure profit.

I was at the Foxwoods show and Adam didn't sound tired or without energy to me. I was lucky enough to be standing at the foot of the stage for the whole show with Adam just feet away from me and that boy was on fire!!! He was unbelievable!!! I just think he might want to shorten it up at this point because he knows what he needs to do to stay on point for the whole duration of his upcoming shows, both his and Queens.

I see the "sick" discussion ...well... all I can say is that last night there was NO indication of anything wrong AT ALL! The voice and the energy were at the usual stratospheric level...
