Jablea ...yes it was suppost to be a joke...ok maybe a very superficial and blindfolded Adam asked that fan to go party with him?!!! I'm jealous af! I was in Munic also one year ago Me too. :D With my husband and a good friend. I met there sizzling63 , QueeenAl and a lot of other Adam fans. One of the best days of my life! What a night it was about a year ago in Munich!!! So funny how I met shimoli710 ...she stood slightly in front of me during the whole concert and I was thinking, "hmm...this lady is really into it, she must be a fan" haha. I am glad that we talked once the concert was over to find out that the both of us are on the same fan site haha.

unsteady || 178 @crazyglambert17 17m17 minutes ago boy got some skills I remember when Adam painted this. It was at a radio station or something. The DJ or somebody made a still-life model out of fruit and Adam was supposed to paint it, which he did. Oh course, the whole thing was meant to look very phallic. Adam was quite clever when he splashed on the speckles and mentioned artist Jackson Pollack.

Thanks, Patti. The no cd player was nearly a deal breaker for me but I really wanted the new CRV. I have something like 1,000 cds but I guess I will have to play them on my PC. Will just do "greatest hits" for everyone except for Adam and Elvis in the car. I have an old iPod. I know, I know, no one uses those any more either, but it holds a gazillion of my songs. I have practically my whole CD collection on it. I know I could load some on my phone, but it has much less memory, and it uses more battery power. So, for exercise, dog walks, airplane rides and driving in the car, I use the iPod. It connects directly to my CRV , you just need the iPod cable. You might be able to find an older model or something used for very cheap and take thousands of songs by Adam and others for your longest road trip. My sister had the same problem. She had loads of CDs - fifties and sixties music. She lamented to the car salesman, who actually took her CDs and downloaded her favorite songs to a flash drive. So if you have a computer with a CD drive you can make playlists and download them to a flash drive. Or find a kid to do it for you if you don't have the time, patience or expertise. Your new car will have USB ports. Gosh - it's hard to keep up with technology, isn't it?!?

Sort of off topic but not exactly. The newer cars are not including cd players. I just bought another Honda, and Honda has deleted this feature on all of their models. I haven't purchased the QAL blue ray disk, but how do I play the cd in the car? Do I have to transfer this to my phone and use bluetooth? Along with all my other disks? Will the quality be less? That's too bad. I love my CDs in the car. In our 2015 CRV we got a single CD player. But it made me miss my stacked CD player in my 2008 Odyssey. When I want to hear the best sound for any new song, I always like to use the CD player in my car. The best speakers I own. I use my iPhone playlist more. But the CD option is awesome! So, to answer your question. Yes, you will have to upload the CD to your phone & then play it via bluetooth. Will quality be lost? Yes, but most people actually don't notice. Where is our Kryptoman? He knows the details on the difference in CD and DL quality. I was out and about, driving my 3 weeks old 2017 Honda CR-V, which has the same no-CD issue I purchased a 64GB flash drive and copied every song I could find in my iTunes folders, and on the various CDs I had in my 2008 Civic. The commercial CDs I had purchased or got as bonus with concert tickets I inserted in my CD-ROM drive on the desktop and let iTunes download as MP3s. Now granted the quality of MP3s is nowhere as good as Audio CDs, but then again I got most of the music I needed on about half of that drive. Now I can simply select "Random Folder", and one of the thousands of songs from hundreds of albums will play, ranging from Classical Music through Children Songs to Heavy Metal And of course plenty of Adam and QAL (I really love the Buenos Aires radio transmission from Estadio Geba!) In principle, if your cell phone has enough memory for music, you can connect your phone to the car (I plug in with the original USB cable that came with the phone) and use it for both navigation (esp. if the car has Android Auto or Apple Carplay like most 2017 models do), and for music at the same time. Unfortunately, my phone is rather old and is full with pictures and videos of my daughter, so I don't really have nearly as much space on it as on that flash drive... I tested a USB hub (1 to 3) to see if I could connect two devices at once (phone and flash drive), and it is not supported. So using the phone for navigation and music storage is probably a very good solution for most people.

The guy wasn't in the front. He must have been a few rows back on the left side (seen from Adam's point of view). I don't remember, when that was. Must have been either in the beginning of that very long encore or during the third part of the concert. But I found it funny and a bit weird, that Adam simply asked an unknown fan to come backstage after the concert. He then joked, he was for Terrence, not for himself. Seeing Terrence's face was even funnier! T. then also tried to find out, who the guy in the audience was. That's how I remember it. I don't think it's unusual at all. Artists probably single out people they want to meet all the time. Remember Adam's laser pointer joke? As a matter of fact, Adam even mentioned groupies in a recent interview & he has said he's had sex with a fan. I always assumed that had to be a male fan. He's a Rock Star, people! C'mon!!
