BarbarainDallas,Admire your creativity, but have not been sightings reported. Have a great time. Tell him how much we raised for charity water in our leap day challenge. He doesn't know that and he likes it when we act in community. ;D Tell him we're thinking about doing another one for his un-release date! ;D ;D ;D And if you can do it without sounding pushy, mention that a tweet from him encouraging everyone to join in on the Un-Release Charity Water Challenge would really help! He can reach a lot of people who only follow him on Twitter and may not be on some of the boards where the information about the last challenge was posted.

I don't know, it really doesn't bother me. Obviously, Adam gave them his blessing (or may have even handpicked Skins and Stones) and Hans is a friend of his and from what I can tell, they've gone to great lengths to create a quality product that is more involved then the Pennyroyal stuff. (I'm not an expert, but seems like creating a variety of custom molds would be more difficult than stamping into a pendant.) It's tough enough for struggling artists to make a living, and having a piece of work get licensed in a way that they can make a decent amount of money doesn't happen often. He chose to use Hans' artwork, so by inking himself with it, it pretty much gave it his endorsement. People aren't under any obligation to buy and in this case, it's like any other type of jewelry – we buy because we like, it resonates with us and we want to wear it. We don't expect it to have a charity connotation. ITA. BTW I ordered it. Me too! And I agree with all comments made..I was going to write something but others have already said it in a great way. PennyRoyal jumped the gun to do a promotion and had to back off as Adam had given his blessing to Skins and Stones. I am sure PR will now coordinate with Adam for any future endeavors. I think a contest winner created a design which they hope to use in the future.

Thank you all so much for your comments and suggestions. The M&G starts at 2PM. OMG, it really is happening tomorrow...YAY!!!! ljsmack Telling him about our Leap Day Challenge for charity:water is a great idea. Need to research the amount raised in two days. Plan to mention how many of us are going to Sonisphere. Will go the the Ask Adam link to look for questions, comments, too. This is beginning to sound like it will be my personal M&G...so much to talk about. Let's hope I don't freeze looking into those liquid, blue eyes. Yes, I plan to look at him while I talk - operative word "plan." Is it tomorrow yet? No, but it soon will be ;D and you have good things to talk to him about. Adam LOVES his stans so breathe, baby breathe - relax and enjoy the conversation. We'll be eagerly awaiting your report. Thanks so much for sharing!

Bama, yes that's the place on Roswell Road. It is for 94.1STAR and you can win three ways - by texting, registering to be a member of their A-list and following their facebook. I think it will be hard to win unless you are listening the whole day as they will tell you when to call. And then you have to be caller #something. Go to their website for details. I have also been clicking away at Q100 to get as many points as possible. Ah, what we do for love! May your perseverence be rewarded! Sending positive vibes your way...

I don't know if this was posted before! They discuss the possible singles off the new album!! ETA: apparently from Jan 20, 2012 Adam Lambert album thingwww.popjustice.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5975&Itemid=206We reckon the singles should go like this: 1. 'Better Than I Know Myself' (this is the one that's out in America already and we reckon they should just bin off the UK release and instead start again with...) 1. 'Cuckoo'. This is a properly brilliant single. It feels a bit unfair to say "it doesn't even sound like Adam" but we suppose if people are either not fussed by what they've heard so far of Adam's work, or simply didn't like it very much, that's probably a good thing. The lyrics are fairly Adamish though, or what we think Adamish means. WHO IS THE REAL ADAM LAMBERT? (That was a rhetorical question, please don't email or phone the office.) 2. 'Trespassing'. Well the album is called this so we assume it will be a single at some point and it's pretty great so that would make sense. 3. This should be where the ballad comes in. FUCK THE BALLAD. Let's go straight back in with that ravey 'Never Close Our Eyes' one. That's a hit single however you look at it, so if people haven't been very into the whole Queen-esque Pharrell business this will help sell some albums. We seem to recall Adam saying that Bruno Mars had something to do with this one but he might have been talking about something else. 4. Now you can do the ballad. We'd go for 'Outlaws Of Love' here. It feels like a better expression of what it might be like to be gay in America than anything else we've heard recently, and it's got a fantastic tune.

www.carbonated.tv/entertainment/adam-lambert-covers-fault-magazine-spring-2012Adam Lambert Covers 'Fault Magazine' Spring 2012 Adam Lambert gives a deep stare with his piercing blue eyes on the cover of Fault Magazine‘s Spring issue. Here’s what the 30-year-old entertainer had to share with the mag: On choosing the album title Trespassing: “The title track serves as a great mission statement for me as an artist and for how I live my life. I also wanted to give a name to what listeners would be doing by listening to the album. They’re essentially trespassing into my world, getting to know me much more in-depth than ever.” more

JustKaren - I want to add that the Pennyroyal jewelry sales were a great collaboration but only 30% went to charity, so I think there was still some profit for Pennyroyal. I think this Skins & Stones collaboration is great also because the product seems more detailed and priced fairly (I'm getting the bronze key and it's less than half what I paid for the peace sign in bronze). Also, I think this does benefit Adam by supporting his friend - maybe he'll get a deal on future artwork for himself .
