Hey everyone, I agree that we don't know what went through his head (visiting Jerusalem) and personally I don't want to know, it is privet to him and to the people he chose to share. I am not a practicing Jew myself and usually do the traditional stuff as part of that only, and not from a religious standpoint. It was nice for me to see that he shared the pictures with us and the rest is just speculating on my part. Usually entertainers that come here fly right away (as did Brian and Roger) so I just, personally, enjoyed that he stayed here a little longer. In the end he is just a tourist that does as most tourists do when they go to Jerusalem. Hope no-one here was/is offended it was not my intention with my silly thought. Now to more important things- I wanted to share with you guys that I just got home from lunch at Grammas and I talked about the concert with my uncle (who's around 60) and he said "Oh, I heard from friends of mine that it was AMAZING". Then he went on about his friend that goes to a lot of concerts but never intended to go to this one, got a ticket in the end and he went and totally gushed about it! My glambert heart swelled with pride. Thanks for the story! It always makes me happy to hear how new people are wowed by Adam About Adam's visit to Jerusalem... here's a story I would like to offer for additional perspective.....family friends of ours are Jewish and they have honored all the holidays, celebrated Bat Mitzvahs and encouraged visits to Israel. However, not too long ago we discussed religion and I was surprised to learn that they don't consider themselves religious at all - all the rituals have only been a way for them to keep traditions. I think that at times, this could have been a very good description of my family -- "all the rituals have only been a way for them to keep traditions." That is an essential part of Judaism - repetition of traditions. I believe that both my husband and I would describe ourselves as spiritual not religious. Although I think by other people's standards, we might be considered religious. Jewish identity has many dimensions -- including both direct and indirect heritage/tradition. It is very different than a Christian view -- I am a convert, raised Catholic and find the Judaism is far more integrated with daily life, family and home than Catholicism, even my family's Italian-Catholicism which can be very intense. In my understanding, Islam is similarly integrated into people's lives. I am not talking just about values, but everything. The Western Wall visit is a connection to Jewish history and a deeply powerful place for many, many people -- Jews and non-Jews. But I think it is different for Jews than it is for non-Jews and that difference is something that I cannot put into words. It is not about religion or spirituality -- it is about a connection over time.

Lol! So some of us are not fans of the new the hair. Is that really any different than some not liking the aqua shorts, or Frankengump or who he is or is not dating (don't care)? Some like the camp more than the rock and roll. Some like the rock and roll badass more than the camp (Me). Some of us crave his ballads or his freestyle dancing and rocking while others can't live without the dancers and choreographed routines. We just don't love all things equally. Ha! But I do miss that glorious hair and hope it is back soon. Also love and miss the tight leather, the black fur and red fur (early Queen) and the tight shinny pants. Don't care for the shorts or the lace but adore the fringe pants. Still love Adam tho and he is free to be Adam in any form. I too miss the glorious hair and pants that accentuate his gorgeous legs. I think that baggy pants are just "wasted" on him (haha), regardless how fashionable they are. He's still sexy though. How can he not be?

When I don't like some latest fashion craze Adam decided to adopt I take refuge in the old, faithful and unchanging place - I concentrate on THE NOSE! as you know I am the OG Nose person anyway... I love and respect The Nose. Even when Adam tried to intrude The Nose rebelled and rejected the piercing - SMART NOSE! Perfect in every way. #TeamNoseFTW The End. LOL Yes it is a very SMART NOSE!!! I'm sure it thought you don't mess around with perfection and get that nose ring out of here!
