Sorry I am late to the party. Drunken wrestling? It is not a real fight, not blood involved, it is quite entertaining and pretty harmless. I am an expert, it is quite common in my town and my friends and brother in the university used to get involved in one every weekend. And everything usually ended with both parts having a drink toghether . At that time I was really pissed because I am female and they didn't let me play. So I am sorry but I don´t see anything really wrong with this. And if I tell my brother that some people thinks that this is such a big deal that deserves interational news coverage, he is going to laugh his ass off.

My impression was that there were tempers involved here but what I've been picturing is that one of them was upset and decided to leave and the other one was physically trying to make them stay. That's just my imagination, but one way it could have gone down that would include a "non-threatening - non-violent" type of scuffle. I would like some further assurance that everything is okay between them. I guess they're in Sauli's hometown, but Sauli didn't say anything about the 2 of them on his blog. I know....not my business, bit dammit, I care. 8-)

Ok. So, yesterday, amidst all the craziness, I upgraded from the pro boards lite app on my iPhone to the paid one, in order to be able to post (with nursing, I spend a LOT of time on my phone!). The side benefit is that now I can actually click on the beautiful photos that reihmer posts and get a good look. Yum!! (thank you!)

You and I see it as two guys "communicating" with each other and others (mostly in the media) immediately see it as domestic violence, where one of them is the abuser and the other the victim. In terms of the media, I'm thankful we are going into the holiday.

I sent Tony Knapp (Wash DC) a twitter thanking him for all the Adam support and told him he had developed quite a fan base here. He tweeted back saying thanks and his support of Adam was well deserved. I really think he's a sincere fan. (I would do a screen cap but can't figure out how to load a screen cap up on photobucket because of the file extension.)

reihmer - thank you for the pics! I am amazed that having been to 7 GNT concerts I've never noticed most of the background/projection pictures and have paid no attention to the dancers and the band. I see that I am familiar with neither the dancer outfits/hairdos/masks nor the projected art. I do know everything about Adam finding and choosing and buying the art... Adam is such an attention grabber! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Here's to hoping he has some pull with the PD's line up!

It feels terribly annoying that the media in USA refers to Sauli as *a beau* .. as if he had no value at all but is just a playmate for Adam. Why do they underestimate Adam's inteligence so much? .. Is Adam considered some kind of a stupid person in USA??..To live with a beau???.. crap!! Erm, the word beau also is a fancy schmancy way of saying boyfriend. Which is not inaccurate. I'd be more offended at the word "boy toy". Yeah - to me "beau" is just another term for boyfriend. 8-)
