9.30.11 Adam News and Info

I actually agree with his basic premiss, although I think he's missing some newer singers but am too lazy to think of any.

I've never been a fan of any singer just because they are technically great singers. I also agree about all the Idol winners, none besides Adam interest me. Kelly has an incredible voice, but it does nothing for me along with most of the mediocre voices on radio.

And I'm going to have to hide behind a rock....but sometimes Adam's voice is too clean for me in his middle range unless he does something to color it which he can do brilliantly in many ways. In many of his pre idol videos, I appreciate them and how amazing his range is but I never would have become a huge fan from them. Just not my style.

This is why I'm so grateful to Idol though, I think he worked really hard to shed the broadway label and explore what would he could do as a pop rock star, beyond what he accomplished with Zodiac or CV.
And I think he got a lot of great feedback from the behind the scenes people and Slash telling him not to go too crazy improvising with the high notes because he sounds really cool in the lower registers.

It reminded me of that Canadian interview where when asked about his range he said who cares, does it sound cool?

Adam was one of the only Idols to come off that show and really made a go of getting out of the idol box to try and make something that "sounds cool" and succeeded to a large degree. But did he go too far away from "the voice" with the modern production? Once again he listened and learned and has said he wants the voice out front for the next one.

One of the biggest challenges Adam must have is that his voice is so amazing and he has such a crazy ability to make it do whatever he wants, how do you choose? Do you have to choose at all? Could that be his trademark as a singer, being a chameleon? Or do you need that instantly identifiable sound? Would we ever want him to have a trademark sound? Can a modern pop dance record and insane vocals coexist? How many questions can I put in one paragraph?

That's what makes following him so much fun. We have no Idea what to expect from his wardrobe, interviews, performances, albums or his voice. He has said his approach to singing has changed a lot in the last two years and it shows on his new album. I'm glad we don't know what to expect even if I have bouts of anxiety because of it. How dull the life of a Nickelback fan must be.

He's all over the internet though

Here he is as a musician www.myspace.com/ryandugganmusic

And here is where he got his "brother" moniker www.monkswithoutborders.org/staff.html

He's a guy who, based on who he likes to think he is (see his profiles), should be an avid fan of Adam.

On a funner topic, try out this drawing program (found it thru a different ryan duggan.

I think this came and went so quickly overnight, and Duggan not being a high-profile personality, it didn't register outside the Adam universe.

I'm just so glad the media didn't pick up much on the Galliano tweets that I'm willing to give 'em this one too. I sure hope they pick up on the $1 Million fundraising achievement though!

LMAO Jablea!! I found myself drawing a knife trying to kill the dragon thank you!!
