[revives slightly]
Traded a "no picture" request for TWO hugs AND and a ~super sneaky autograph of my red-spined, 1st edition, Acoustic Live CD !!!
[grins evily]
* Fresh FM girl: "No autographs allowed - we have pre-printed pics for you"
* Me: [thinks fast] 'My first and maybe only meet-n-greet....gonna try.....'
* [holds CD next to coat, with pen already uncapped]
* [grins at Adam, bats eyelashes, "This is my first time meeting you EVER [quietly shows off CD] Pleeeeeeze!"
* [Adam grins, opens up DC, pulls cover out of jewel case and signs actual cover]
* [gets my SECOND hug, and then both schufly and I talk to him about Sonisphere for waaaay past our alloted time!]

One more thought on the band thing and then I must be off to RL. I was talking with a client the other day and he said, "My company has a no ASSHOLE policy. We don't care how much money you have, if you are an asshole we won't work with you." This is a big company in the entertainment industry, not a mom and pop so this is a serious statement. Adam has to spend SO MUCH time with his band. On tour, at these seemingly endless radio gigs, traveling here and there.... The no asshole policy is probably true in Adam land and from all accounts Tommy is a nice guy and fun to hang out with. The best guitar player? Unlikely. Not an asshole.... pretty sure that's right. Willing to go along with Adam's vision....yep! Adam picked him. There's a reason for that. Adam is a professional singer, he needs and deserves musicians around him who are top notch, asshole or not, Tommy is not top notch, IMO. The thing with Adam is, he's loyal to a fault. Unless he's personally betrayed somehow (see Monte) he won't get a new guitar player because he likes Tommy and they are friends. As Adam's fan I respect his choices and his right to have whoever he wants in his band. I would never tweet him that I think Tommy sucks but I reserve the right to think Tommy isn't a good enough guitarist to accompany Adam on these radio gigs because there is no way to "hide" his mistakes or heavy handed playing. |

Hi guys !!!!!! just posting here , to say on the "Tommy Vs. Kevin" thingie :
Kevin seems to have more musical education and expirience IMO , He plays keys and guitar , and he is a musical director , so , is just natural that maybe he doesn't get "nervous" or "mess" up while playing music live .
Tommy , on the other hand , I think I read somewhere that learnt to play guitar himself ( correct me please if I'm wrong) and that first auditioned for adam's band to play guitar . then he was told that the guitar place was taken . but that he could play bass . he then bought a bass and started training . And he pulled it off !!!!
Don't hate on Tommy . In my very honest opinion , he played guitar just as good as Kevin , esp. in WWFM . And I play piano , so I have to have a good ear for that . (at least)
AND , remember , Adam picked him for it . that means the must have skills . he's just nervous right now . give him time !!!!!!
Sorry for the long post , hehe !!!!!

BTW - Was sitting in a swank table up front (THANK YOU RJACKS for saving us seats while I was caught behind a stupid car accident on the George Washington Parkway and completely freaking out that I was going to miss the whole thing).
Both Adam (and Tommy's accompaniment) sounded absolutely gorgeous.
[grin] And I *do* have a good ear and was sitting about 10 feet away from them both. Video recording does neither of them justice.
