Duh. Thank you, Wal!  ETA: I just love shoooooooooeeeeesssssss. Here's a strange pair!  ...and a t-shirt I kinda like...FEEDBACK/DISTORTION (it's hard to read)  Ahhh, yeah. The tshirt...On that kind of a design one really needs to try it on to see where those eyes are gonna hit!! I get how Adam's lace up crotch pants are essentially to highlight his attributes, but I think the smiley shirt doesn't quite work in the same way.  |

Much talk here of Brian London, backup singers and dancers. So I have to add that when I checked out Brian on twitter, I found that he followed a very select group of about 68, including, as one would expect Bruno Mars and Adam. But I was surprised to see that Brian also follows Terrence S*&@^#r. So I think it is safe to say T. has a double guarantee of a job when Adam is easy to do a full-out show. As far as the divas, I think they will be needed for backup on the upcoming promo tour. I think someone (Mys*&@^#r?) found that Brian was involved in Zodiac. Quite a talented and close knit family there, too, it seems. |

Very much OT and probably of no interest to anyone, but it seemed such a topical coincidence that I figured I'd post it anyway. There's an interesting profile of Jack White in the NYTimes today, and it opens with a discussion of his use of color (his most famous band, The White Stripes, were known for their constant wearing of red and white). Here's a bit from the article: "White is obsessive about color and meticulous in his attention to detail. Inside, the walls that face west are all painted red, and the ones that face east are all painted blue. The exterior, meanwhile, is yellow and black (with a touch of red). Before he made his living as a musician, White had an upholstery shop in Detroit, and everything related to it was yellow and black — power tools, sewing table, uniform, van. He also had yellow-and-black business cards bearing the slogan “Your Furniture’s Not Dead” as well as his company name, Third Man Upholstery. When he started the record label, he simply carried everything over. “Those colors sort of just mean work to me now.”
Roaming the hallways were several young employees, all color-coordinated, like comic-book henchmen. The boys wore black ties and yellow shirts; the girls wore black tights and yellow Anna Sui dresses. (There were also a statistically improbable number of redheads.) White stopped in front of one cute girl in bluejeans and Vans. “Can you guess which Third Man employee is getting fined $50 today?” he asked, smiling."

Here's a bit from the article. Lately I've been dutifully trudging through the NYT every a.m. but today I made what may have been dolphin noises at the coffeeshop downstairs. It was also a particularly great article and Jack White is always on topic if music/art is adjacent. (ETA - MWP - did you see the parody vid going round - Hipster Games? I think since it's Silverlake-centric both Austin and Portland should respond~) |

I just love everything tonight...Brian, The Girls, the performance, the confetti, the attitude, the black/yellow bands, the recaps, the birthdays and birthday cakes, the pictures, the vids, the love, the support, the "almost instant" info on anything new, the ease in navigating this homeplace, the openness, the help, the compassion............and most of all for Adam-Fucking-Lambert...the catalyst

I LOVE the silicone bands!...so good for identifying fellow fans. No way in hell I'm gonna wear black and yellow. Nope. Sorry, can't do it.....even for Adam.  Yellow and black were my absolute favorite colors...in high school. Had my own little goth thing going, and this was way before anyone knew what 'goth' meant, in a fashion sense. Haven't worn yellow much since then. But I would totally wear it again for Adam. But it has to be a bright/greenish or lemony yellow and not an orangey/gold-yellow. And no stripes! (Black is no problem -- my most-worn color, along with grey/silver. And aqua. And hot pink ;D). |

WOW - can't wait to see that performance on my tv! backup singers are a very cool addition! love the black-and-yellow theme too. oh, and confetti is the new glitter! wondered who concepted the whole thing?thanks everyone who brought photos/tweets/video/recaps!! PS: we're going to need some black-and-yellow lollies for this era I know nothing, and I'm often way off base, but IMO it was ADAM who conceptualized the whole performance. With input from others, no doubt, but his concept, his ideas. ("I have a lot of ideas" -- AFL, AI Hollywood week) (And we've seen the truth of that). |
