The Beg For Mercy thead has been added to my timeline thread. I am beyond furious. I will copy and then delete all of my posts, if it it not moved. I'm confused. Please PM me. [puts on mod hat]BB, I see what happened. This was apparently a result of yesterday's site re-organization. The links and other stuff associated with BFM needed to go somewhere, and placing it under the category of "Pre-Idol Performances and Recordings" does make logical sense. It is NOT part of your timeline. Talk to Q3, bb, but I'm sure its was not meant as a slur in any way, shape, or form.

Off topic but I think I can make it about Adam; Today we had an adorable Adam video and here's Sophia Grace and Rosie also adorable; www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=KUWpd91UBrA#! I wish Adam had walked the red carpet earlier so he could have met them! Warning; James Durbin sighting and he shows them his underwear ewwww

This is ironic. I came on here this afternoon to note that you, 4Msrmyn, are one of the people I am thankful for today! I was putting together a list of Adam moments of the year for which I am thankful and I can't even describe how much your work helped me. Just wanted you to know!

I'm sitting here watching over a sick relative and came across this (Welsford mouthpiece) Eric Mayron's Twitter (emayron). He was the one who spammed the BFM Amazon page under a fake name until he screwed up and posted under his real name, then kept spamming any way. Now he's claiming via Twitter that Adam doesn't have a cd coming out and that Citizen Vein was not a band (in other words, he's trying to say that the marketing of the cd as an Adam Lambert cd is not misleading because it's ALL Adam and that BFM is Adam's new cd because it's the only cd coming out.)
Beyond everything, I'm just wondering at the business plan going on here. What sort of marketing genius thinks insulting the performer and his notably loyal fans is an effective way to sell product?

(quickly putting on mod hat) 4Ms: Not sure I understand, but, since hoppers has to be away from her computer for a bit, PM me and we will figure this out.

Wait...so that Mendez tweet. Are we thinking that Adam AND Sam both sing on the track? Like a totally super gay awesome duet of awesome gay proportions?!?!?! Or am I getting ahead of myself here? LOL. Does Sparro do background vocals for other peeps or something? I am intrigued...

Beyond everything, I'm just wondering at the business plan going on here. What sort of marketing genius thinks insulting the performer and his notably loyal fans is an effective way to sell product? Carrieb, who is this Mayron person? If he is involved with the business end of BFM, this is crossing the line into deceptive trade practices and becomes actionable by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission). From the FTC website: The FTC Act prohibits unfair or deceptive advertising in any medium. That is, advertising must tell the truth and not mislead consumers. A claim can be misleading if relevant information is left out or if the claim implies something that's not true. For example, a lease advertisement for an automobile that promotes "$0 Down" may be misleading if significant and undisclosed charges are due at lease signing. I'm sure Adam/RCA's lawyers know all this and much more. As for your other question ... none of this has made much sense from the beginning. It's one of the worst examples of lose-lose thinking I've ever seen, and I've seen a few. :(

I don't usually worry much about the BFM thing, as I think it will all blow over/fizzle out. However, I did look up Eric Mayron the other day out of curiosity. His linkedin says he is:
Performer - Keyboardist/Vocalist/Programmer at Diego Schoening Band Music Producer/Arranger/Multi-Instrumentalist at Welsford Music Professor of Workstation Theory at Pinnacle College
It seems that via Welsford Music he helped to "complete" the music on some or all of these tracks.
That is all I know.
peace&love
