Adam was magnificent tonight...worth every penny spent for just 15mins. He sounded fantastic and the crowd were great even if the majority had never heard of him Not sure if you could hear on the stream but he said "I know most of you don't know who I am but I hope you soon will"  He may not have had the teen screams but there was spontaneous applause everytime he hit the notes hard !! NCOE was unbelievable......... Barely noticed the band (except the fierce bass player 8-)) or the backup singers (only heard them once when Adam stopped singing) ETA LOL Gill...I don't think they missed our presence in the 2nd half ;D Thank you for recap, and, I hope they know him soon too ;D |

Just want to encourage people, if the opportunity arises naturally, to make international friends. Like Adam does when he tweets to other acts.Today the headliner act at Royal Albert Hall was JLS. Who played for the Queen at her Jubilee. JLS are a boy band who are GIANT in UK. They have a friggin 3-D movie of their sold out tour coming out this month. I had never heard of them until today. They are basically BoyZone but they look like Hip Hop kids. Cute. And they can really sing. (As could BoyZone. Love Ronan Keating.) Remember, the UK likes singers who can actually sing. So I tweeted: Think that's JLS. Mega Boy Band du jour. @coconutgrove0 Adam at Royal Albert Hall tonight MTV UK pic twitpic.com/9tuo3b And 6 JLS fans retweeted that. One started following me. Her bio says "I live for JLS" and some other even more committed stuff. (She's a teen) Sensing a marketing opportunity, I did some searches on JLS. They're good. Biebs better watch his back. 4 cute guys with actual talent. And YAY ADAM FOR GETTING YOUR PIC WITH THEM. Then I tweeted:
Researched JLS. They're huge, very cute & can actually sing. Surprised not in US. Have 3-D movie coming out. Fab that their fans saw Adam. 11 RT's from JLS fans. One of whom cleverly replied: actually, it's great that Adam fans saw JLS. I tweeted back, of course. (Even though didn't actually see them. But saw vids. They're good.) JLS fans clearly search "JLS" on Twitter all the time. So any chance we have to make friends around the globe, can't hurt to praise their, uh, Idol. YES, this should always be in my mind. I get so obsessed with Adam's vocals and performance that it is hard to expound about others - but you outline why it is so important to acknowledge positively about those who are a part of Adam's path ...  |

Did the band Adam had playing for him at the show play for other performers? If they were just put together for Adam...I wonder who got all these musicians together and how long they rehearsed for this? I wonder if they'll play the G-A-Y show for him? Lol! I sure did ask a lot of questions. I would like to know more about the members of this 'rent a band'! ;D I believe someone said upthread that they're from Hire-A-Band, so I assume they're all professional musicans that can do the job in quite short notice. So maybe while Adam's in Canada, they've decided to just hire local band, it's cheaper compare to bring all the band members, backup singers and the instruments accross the pond. |

And is first time I've really heard the bass line get decent prominence on Trespassing, so yay for that! |

but.. but.. UK also likes US singers who can't sing  :-/ Well, yes, alas, tis true. But still, there was that lovely aspect about someone in Royal Albert Hall tweeting today that they were next to a family so impressed by Adam's ability, who had never heard of him, say "Oh, he must be huge.". Obviously, because Adam is so talented. And there is a swath of UK audience that have this idea, oh, singers should sing, which leads to Boy Bands that can actually sing. |

Thought people might find this interesting Carrie Underwood is playing the same theatre here in Melbourne that Adam sold out when he toured down under for Glam Nation... will let you know how her sales go (seeing my hubs manages the security there will be easy to find out)  |
