Thanks, 4msrmyn. I finally got AI Aftermath into my iPod! The guy from AppleCare said you can't put HD mp4 vids on the iPod Classic so I have to find mp4's that'll work. All of you probably already know this but you find a video download on the INTERNET and put it in Automatically Add To iTunes. It goes to iTunes MOVIES where you Right Click it and when the window pops up you click OPTIONS and you'll see MEDIA Choice and choose MUSIC VIDEOS, click it and it is now in your music videos and will sync to your iPod!  Since it's a slow day thought maybe someone else might not know this and find it helpful. adamrocks, Thanks for the helpful tip, I'm in the minority that didn't know. I'll try it now. Thanks again. |

For some reason I keep thinking that Adam #2 will be created like a collage. Adam will have a vision of the story he wants to tell. He will have lots and lots of great music and ideas to choose from. Some will be from collaborations and some will be just Adam. He will lay everything out on the table and start arranging and rearranging and trading until he steps back and looks at the full picture. When the music represents the story he wants to tell, the album will be ready for production. We will all be waiting eagerly to open the cover or order the digital download to hear Adam share his next vision and story. ^^^^THIS |

Pjd - When in Rome do as the Roman's do. Use Greek money. It is hard for these people to go to the bank and change the money. There is usually a charge. Since Greece is part of the EEU, Euros are used and then there is no question as to the denomination. Right now the dollar is not strong against the Euro. I bought Euro's on my trip to LA to see Adam in Dec, 2010 for a trip in July, 2011 to Italy. The dollar was strong at that point. Remember everything in Europe in quite expensive and ecasue our dollar is not strong, it will seem really expensive. We were in Paris,Bruges and Amsterdam last year and nobody would take American dollars. We ran out of Euros and wanted to tip our Dutch waitress and she said next time and wouldn't take our U.S. Currency. This was a first for us.. we were always able to use American dollars when we traveled before. Interesting discussion, I've traveled all over Europe, lived in the UK and India, traveled in Mexico, Thailand, Nepal, and many small islands, and it's never occurred to me to use US dollars at all. It just seems like it would make your life and that of locals difficult. (Plus it kinda seems culturally imperialist to me? Unless a up-to-date guide book said that it was the done thing in a particular place for particular situations...). I usually just get a few days worth of the local currency out of an atm with a visa debit card in the airport after I've arrived, it has the lowest exchange rates that way (manned exchange windows, travelers cheques, getting currency before you go are all pains-in-the-arse and have high fees associated.) I pay with most things w/ a credit or debit card if I can, and use cash only when necessary. Given that, I've never traveled with a tour group and tend not to frequent tourist ghettos or self-contained resorts which might be set up a little differently. |

I have always been scorned by AO. Have yet to receive an email notification of anything being shipped. I check the filter for junk mail and my spam folder but nothing ever shows up there. Have to go look up the order and see if it was shipped and then check UPS or whoever for an estimated arrival. Right now UPS says they have created a lable but are "not in possession" of the item so until they have it - no shipping date is available. I got my email saying my order has been shipped but when I click on the tracking link, it says the same thing yours does. It says the tracking status will be updated when they receive the shipment. I think it's a good sign that they've created a label for you! Even if the email went astray, they're gonna send you the package. |

Have not traveled recently in Mexico much, many years ago we used to go to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico twice a year. Back then, and yes it was before it became major touristy, the local shops and restaurants loved being paid in US dollars. Probably because we would tend to drop more dollars and with fluctuating dollar versus peso back then with dollars they were better off. Anyway, that was many years ago, times change. Now when we travel, we use plastic : |

No notification of shipment from AO for me either. I actually have 2 separate orders, one just for the DVD/CD and then one for the Tour Pack (I couldn't resist!) Seemingly, neither one has shipped. :( No e-mail from AO for me either...darn it. I ordered my tour pack and add'l DVDs on the same order....hope that doesn't delay it. |

While waiting for CD/DVD, am also waiting for charity:water signed photo. I thought one or two members mentioned they had received theirs. I think my request for a mailing address was in the second email batch that went out and there were 2 or 3 others after mine. Anyway, just curious.
