Waking up to news that Adam was definitely at Burning Man is awesome!!!! My gut feeling was yes; it made so much sense for him time-wise and where he is in his life right now. I figured we had no reported sightings because, 1) the place is huge, 2) he blended in pretty well, 3) people who are there focus on the event, not interacting on social media, 4) the philosophy is all about community, not celebrity, so it would be kind of against the "rules" to "out" someone who was there just doing their thing. Now that people are heading back, I'm sure we'll hear more about him being there. Ideally, Adam will write a nice lengthy twitlonger about the experience with plenty of details, and Sauli will include a ton of pics of the two of them in his next blog. Hey, a gal can dream, right? : And sending thoughts to Texas and hopes for rain. Please stay safe, Texans! Sigh...at best we'll get a lovely cropped pic of Sauli....at worse a pic of the actual Burning Man But oh, how much fun we'll have looking for some sort of resemblance to Adam in the flames!  |

Chunkey, Hot AC and AC are almost interchangeable these days but used to be AC was more "easy listening" type songs while HOT AC was more pop leaning but def not as "hard" as Pop radio.
The main difference is the audience that each draws. Pop has the largest audience of any of the radio formats which is why almost every artist wants their music played on Pop radio.

OT but maybe a sign of what will happen for Adam with his fifth album...or maybe his next single (plea to the radio gods!! I have decided logic does not apply to radio.) Kelly's new single was released mid-week last week. Does not go for adds until next week but has 23 auto adds and is Top 30 HAC, Top 40 AC, Top 50 Pop right now. RCA is only going for adds on Pop, they know HAC and AC will follow. where did you hear that RCA is only going for adds on Pop? According to AllAccess Kelly's single goes for ADDS on Pop Sept 13 and on HAC on the 12th. It's current chart position: #47 on Pop with +502 spins and a 3 million AI #29 on HAC with +493 spins and 3 million AI #36 on AC with +34 spins and .9 million AI It went for sale on itunes at midnight and without an ad it's at #93 on pop so far. It's off to a good start. Kelly is an established radio staple. Hopefully Adam will get a similar reception with his lead single for album #2. Sorry -- second time I got bogus Kelly info from this site: www.mjsbigblog.com/monday-morning-mediabase-update-aug-29-sep-4.htm/comment-page-1/#comment-1029560"As per usual, Kelly Clarkson serves notice and explodes on to the charts with the debut single from her upcoming album. “Mr. Know It All” achieved top 30, 40 and 50 milestones on three different formats (HAC, AC and Pop respectively). Her song does not go for adds until next week (and only on Pop). Not bad for a song released in the middle of the week. Her spincrease on Pop is 502, on HAC it is 494 and on AC it is 34." Kristen is usually very accurate so I did not check it. And you are correct -- All Access has it listed as going for HAC adds on 9.12.11. Perhaps you should post a correction at MJs so others are not misinformed as I was. ******************* Back to Adam -- I do not expect his single to move up the charts as easily as Kelly's. She has multiple #1's -- just puts her in a different league. |

I'm a bit confused about the Greatest Song voting. I'm sure I didn't go through 9 pages before it thanked me for completing. Also the songs seem to be in rough alphabetical order and I only got as far as the L's. Looking back at page 1 there's a lot of titles I didn't get to vote for. It's Part 1 of a 2-part poll. The second half tomorrow, I'm guessing |

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BAMAFAN!!
[/size]  I'm sending out 'positive energy' for our Atops needing rain!! Hopefully it will come soon. Thanks for posting the beautiful pics from Burning Man. Just amazing images! I'm so glad to hear that Adam was able to share the BM experience with Sauli. Such a special time in both their lives.

Bama!!!! Happy Birthday!!! Have a wonderful day!!! OMG, I would KILL to hear the song he sang at Brooke's wedding. You know they must've had an official videographer. I wonder how much crying (or donating to her favorite charity) we can do to get her to release just that portion? Momtomany, I so hope it was them!! Even the belief that it could have been is a lovely thought. Sooo wish I could send this freak rain we're having in SoCal to Texas. I don't remember it ever raining on Labor Day before, yet it's pouring right now. Here's hoping it moves east.

I definitely have opinions on songs but can't figure out how to vote, either. Won't let me type anything in Directions would be appreciated. |
