Name listed for the review is Barry Walters. thanks  I am sorry, I got a phone call from son who lives in LA. He is worried about his flat screen TV and car, seems on the news there they are saying it is 99% chance between the 19th and 26th LA will have an earthquake of 6.0. This will be Kevin's first earthquake, IF, it happens. I asked him if he wanted to come home for that week. He said he could not, needs to work to pay the bills. I told him to get online and find out what he needs for earthquake kits for home and car. That is when he says, I am ONLY worried about my flat screen TV and my car.  :  His apartment has underground parking, wanted to know if I thought he should park his car on the street for that week???????? He is 25 going on............I do not even know what to say!!!!!!!! I didn't tell him that I really do not give a flying fish about his TV or car, I was cool, calm and collected. :D Anyway, sorry it took me so long to answer. |

I think if Adam's people thought that Rolling Stone gave him a bad review ,they wouldn't be touting it with the EW review. I'm happy RS is talking about Adam again,hope we don't hate on the magazine.. I want them talking about our guy.

So much Adam goodness with his releases of Acoustic Live, Aftermath Acoustic, Glamnation Live. Adam's input is all over these musical and visual releases and the product is phenomenal. If Adam #2 is anything like these releases, we are in for a treat.

Thanks MyS*&@^#r....I've had it on all day trying to stretch it out !! I wish I had gotten a Medium, instead of a small. The neck is kinda tight and the cut is slender, but at least it runs long. (If I had a little less midriff bulge, it would fit OK lol) Welcome Gingerpf !!! ...just noticed that this was your first post at the new Atop. Hey bamafan!! Thank you! This is good info because I absolutely HATE tight Tshirts. I need something a little looser to disguise the rolls of fat around my middle. Ya know, those merch people really need to look at their demographics. Most of us are not teenage girls anymore. They coulda made an easy $75 from me for that turquoise & black hoodie on the tour but it was made for a 10 year old. When will they learn? : |

Fuck Rolling Stone Mag. I just finished watching the DVD on my TV with my Bose speakers. (No spoilers, promise.) What a tour de force! First and foremost, who sings that well, that powerfully, that emotionally and that consistently live????? Adam Lambert, that's who. The vocals sound too good to be true. The sound production let's that voice shine. Every word is clear. Every note right on. Frankly, the sound is better than I heard in the concert hall, where everything was so loud it tended to be muddy. With the sound on the DVD, Adam's voice and delivery are even more impressive. Altho they trimmed the time between numbers, the DVD shows the performance straight through, and the energy Adam maintains and even escalates is impressive. By the time we reach the final section of celebration, the joy transcends the medium and you feel it and get swept up in it sitting in your living room. I am so glad and grateful that RCA decided to release this. If it is not universally embraced now, I am willing to bet a month's salary that in the future it will be considered a classic; the epitome of a stellar live performance from start to finish. Cassie, of all the fine words you've ever shared here (and there have been many), these may be my favorite! This sound/his voice is PHENOMENAL!! |

I lived thru the Northridge Earthquake, which was two 6.2 earthquakes within seconds of each other. It was pretty devastating. There is such a grid of faults in the LA area, having a 6.0 and its effects have a lot to do with which fault line moves and whether it is located on land or out in the ocean. You can really feel the rocking and rolling and it's so quick that by the time you react, it's over. It's the after shocks that become very disconcerting. My oldest brother was visiting from NY when it happened early in the moring. He was scared shitless. Typically peeps put earthquake straps on electronic equipment, which prevents them from falling over. All my art work had special earthquake hangars. He might want to put away anything of value. As far as himself, it just happens so quickly. He would be safe to have a blanket and food and drinks in his car, just in case. |

Just popping in for a split-second, but I'm not bothered at all by the RS review. Couple of weird moments (i think the "barely live" comment comes from incredulity rather than criticism) but on the whole pretty good. He says Adam is "often triumphant," and nods to his remarkable "charisma." those are pretty strong words of praise from a non-stan. Also, I kinda agree Adam is stagey--I love his stageyness! As many others have commented, Freddie was StageyDeluxe!! I feel kinda like Adam with Simon--"it was a little Rocky Horror for me.." "Oooh, i LOVE that movie!" "I took it as a compliment!" :D I chose to take my cue from Adam and be relentlessly positive! I'll take almost all the RS review as a compliment, just like Adam does! In case it wasn't posted, here's a link to the whole review: kanvaso.com/show/4LRD |

Cayman -- mark me as a skeptic that they can predict earthquakes. But if they can predict them and if it is "only" a 6.0, it should not cause major structural damage in LA -- only to structurally deficient buildings.
But having been thru a couple major quakes and losing a house to a hurricane, I learned that "stuff" doesn't matter -- cause you can always buy a new TV or car (if you have great insurance) -- but people really matter. Puts things into perspective.
