Thanks so much
aralid. I fully understand your hesitation. On one hand we need to warn people interested but not in the know about BFM, on the other hand every comment we make also creates marketing and hits on search pages.
My own choices are: If there are already a few comments, explaining the situation then I leave it at that, but if there are no comment or if the comments are misleading, then it is probably worth the hit to leave a comment, imo.
As far as web-sites:
www.adamnews.de is by far the best one out there in DE/AT/CH and it has a forum (button underneath the facebook and twitter signs). So it is fairly easy to introduce yourself in the introduction thread and bring up a topic on that forum there and ask whether they want to discuss further.
Furthermore, Nadine does have contacts within Sony Germany and has made very good use of that both getting some info out as well as keeping the fan-site and any info she may be able to get in check.
Most fans on it are teenagers, so it is in style and culture a bit different than here, not so much discussion and yapping and more information only, pretty flippant in style, I'd give them a very good vote overall.
Then there is an Adam Lambert thread on IOFF - for example:
www.ioff.de/showthread.php?t=348858&page=292 will get you to page 292 of that thread. This thread moves slowly, but major news are reported on.
Neither of the two places has so far addressed the BFM / Paramount situation. And in Germany BFM will not only be marketed at Amazon. I think that if German music web-sites outside of Amazon are showing BFM, it will be happening in other countries too, we just have not found it yet, but that is just my opinion.
Hope you meet some great people there. The Berlin and Cologne section are the biggest representatives there as far as I know. Good luck in finding that start to the proverbial ball of wool of finding some contacts.
Finally, regarding that ball of wool, I agree, the neon green/yellow does not fit with Adam and in fact hurts my eyes a bit. But I have to say they otherwise have some very nice colors there. Not much time or talent in the knitting department myself. They certainly got the attention our attention, didn't they, so that makes it good marketing in itself.

Welcome iceish!
And a very Happy Birthday to Jesse555 !
