My theory is that the idols featured prominently in the promo will be appearing during the season. So, I expect to see Kelly, Carrie and Adam. Jennifer Hudson was shown very briefly so I’m not sure I agree except for Kelly. She is a coach on their biggest rival, The Voice. They have not had her on Idol since she joined that show (could be NBC contract related). Adam has been a judge too but he was on Xfactor Australia and now Clash and the UK show. None of them are rivals for Idol. Jhud was also a coach on The Voice but she has not been a coach on there since John Legend let it be known that he wanted the spot, lol. So maybe she would be invited back now? Oh ya, I forgot about TV and Kelly! There goes my “theory”, lol. re what Adam would promote - may be his musical will be ready for that soon? |

I remember so well that QAL tour when Adam was sick with bronchitis. He sounded very wheezy and could not breathe well. But he got through it like a trouper. Then his doc said he had to cancel the Brussels show.
What is remarkable about Adam is that he is rarely sick. His FYE tour was long and grueling with a packed schedule. I don't think he missed even one show. I'm sure that there were shows on that tour where he didn't feel 100%, but the audience never knew.
We'll have to see if he does get asked to be on Idol. I don't watch at all anymore, but I'll watch when he's on.

But then I remembered it always seems to take him a really long time to get something ready for recording so no need to get my hopes up. Tho on the bright side, wasn't he in a recording studio not too long ago? Seems someone posted a picture.
I would still like to see him mentor.

I just want to see him sing something beautiful . . . or rock it out! It feels like it's been so long . . . |

He's such a pro. I bet we'll never know how many he's performed when he wasn't feeling well...and you could never tell. ... Then they left out „Who wants to live forever“ (I believe, it was the only time that they left that one out in a regular concert). That is not entirely correct. The first time WWTLF was not performed was at the Tokyo Summer Sonic 2014 (the one recorded for the BluRay), but I can agree that it probably did not count as a "regular concert". However, after skipping the song in Frankfurt in 2015, QAL did not perform it in 3 consecutive stadium concerts in 2016 - in Finland, Estonia, and Sweden. What is scary is that the concert following the Sweden show was... Isle of Wight! I have to wonder if the Pulse shooting was the reason the song came back on the list... |

kryptoman68 How do you remember all these things?? You must have a system in place lol. I honestly didn't realize that Adam had skipped WWTLF for a series of concerts back then. It definitely came back in full force for Isle of Wight and that was arguably his best and most meaningful rendition to date.

It definitely came back in full force for Isle of Wight and that was arguably his best and most meaningful rendition to date. A while ago I posted a little screenshot of the large spreadsheet I have. It shows every song in the X and every concert in the Y, with colored cells representing who owned the song. A number inside the cell shows the order of the song on that particular day. Red cells show me when a song was not performed. I have dates, locations, and the number of days between dates at the top. I have counters showing how many times the song was performed, and a percentage of the total number of concerts. I have color coding for who wrote the song. There is a smaller spreadsheet for the extra shows that were not full concerts, too. The verbose version of that spreadsheet is somewhat represented by the article "QAL In Numbers": www.adamfullcircle.com/qal-in-numbers |

kryptoman68 you are amazing! I have some appreciation of large spreadsheets thanks to my software engineer DH. You are indeed a treasure for Atop!
