9.22.11 Adam News and Info

I was not impressed with any of the designs. The only things I liked at all were the zipper pants and the braided fringe jacket. Overall, yuck! But, the band they had to work with must have been limiting. They seemed a throw-back, and definitely not into style or fashion. It was a waste of time, frankly. If you are going to do FASHION design, do it for a band that wants to appear fashionable. Oh, wait. There aren't any male rock bands who have any fashion sense. Damn! Our Adam spoils us in another area. First the voice, then the showmanship, then the fashion sense.

This is the first season I have watched PR, but I have watched it from the beginning. Tonight I kept thinking that they were showing Adam more frequently than they have shown any of the other judges. And well they should. Especially since he was the only strikingly fashionable male there. I hope that this episode gets lots of attention and comments, and leads others to think "Let's get that Adam guy on OUR show."

ahem ...

SQAAAAA WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's trying to kill us. He truly fucking is. I'm convinced. But .... oh well!!!!

Haha! I thought Reihmer really intended to say "So, 'little Adam'...Wish 'he' had been more involved with more screentime." LOL! :-[ ;D I read like 5 responses thinking "that's not what Reihmer meant!" And then I realized, yes, that IS what he meant, my mind was just in the gutter again....oops!

(Ahh, flashbacks to the AI tour days.)

I loved Adam on PR, he was great. So articulate, so humorous, so original, so spot-on.

Also, just have to say that I adore the Insider interview where he talks about his executive producer credit. I think that's my favorite of all his interviews within the last six months or so. First of all, he looks...just beyond belief, amazing, perfection. And he was so natural and enthusiastic -- just really, really loved it. Doesn't surprise me at all that he's been given executive producer status. I know he's got good instincts as a businessman, but my feeling (based on zero knowledge of the industry) is that his producer status primarily involves the artistic vision (music, imagery, themes) for the album as well as the sound of each individual track. I have felt strongly all along that RCA trusts and values his instincts and ideas as an artist, musician, and performer. They know he's one in a million. Or one in a gazillion.

I'm also not surprised that it IS Adam who wants more time for the album, and I'm thrilled that he's taking whatever time he needs -- and that RCA, per Adam's tweet, has been 'patient'. I think they really trust -- probably are to some degree in awe -- of him. YMMV

ETA : I haven't been able to read through the whole thread today, so I apologize if I'm repeating anything discussed earlier.
