Just returned home. Emotionally drained. I think there were about 40 people at the i93 show. Adam was fashionably late as usual. We waited outside (where it was very hot 80) when they did the sound check and I really couldn't hear a thing.
When we went in, the stage was set up with 2 chairs. Adam came in: let me stop here for a minute; he is more gorgeous than I remembered and sooo very, very young looking. His smile could melt icebergs; I could listen to him talk all day, his sweetness shines through his spoken words. TOTALLY unassuming. He is his own best PR person. Back to the story; he sang BTIKM with Kevin on guitar - beautiful. Then he sang WWFM. There is nothing like hearing him live. Everyone who has been to a concert understands this. My hope is that EVERY Adam Labmert fan is able to hear him sing live at least once. I know nothing about music but his voice is so pure - it draws you into his world. And right now, his world is fabulous if his demeanor is any indication
Again, back to the story...After the 2 songs,(was being entitled and hoping for more, of course) we had our pictures taken with him, in two's. I managed to tell him I was going to Sonisphere, he said Oh good or something to that effect and our picture was over. I know I looked at him as I was talking but I truly remember nothing else AND I had prepared myself for this. I think he is so disarming without meaning to be that I lost any thought of what I was supposed to be looking at or for ie lips, freckles, eyes. Way too short but oh so sweet.
On the way out Kevin talked to us and was a true gem. What a nice guy he seems to be; I can see why Adam picked him for the band. He asked my name, told me to tweet him and he'd answer if only a word or two. Think he likes twitter as much as Adam. He said when he was growing up and following bands or singers, it would have been so great to feel connected with them and now he can through twitter. Super guy.
Sad the day is over but thankful I had the opportunity to see Adam live. Sorry I couldn't mention Leap Day...we'll just have to hope he somehow knows about it and I bet he does.
This will probably be my longest post ever (or at least till after Sonisphere.) If I forgot anything crutial and remember it, I'll add it later. I thought about you all, I really did. How much fun would it be for all of us to go to the same concert. I know, not possible, but it would be so wonderful to share this feeling of joy with truly like minded friend. Tonight I'll work on how to bring over pictures. That should be a challenge. Love, light and peace to each of you.
