Hi all I wanted to post a good little Adam related story on today's beautiful thread of lightness and love. I'm sitting at the hair salon getting highlights and reading Atop. Only on page 8 or so and have already cried like 3 times. So much beauty!
So here's my little story. As I said, I'm reading Atop while I'm getting highlights. My hairdresser sees the snippet of Adam singing (from the youtube link / Michael Slezak post) and she exclaims (for all to hear mind you) "is that Adam Lambert? I love him!"
So I told her yes it was and explained that I was reading Atop. She said she saw him on Idol last week and wanted to get his new song.... Something about closing your eyes. :-) She was very excited to tell me he was coming to Des Moines for the Waterworks park festival. (Pssst, i've had my ticket for a week:-)
Anyway, a couple other people in the salon chimed in about going to the concert and how it sounds like a good line-up. The conversation moved on to this year's Idol and who would win.
My hair is almost processed and after my cut and style, my hair dresser Abbey is about to receive what is sure to be her first tip/cd combo... Because like any obsessed Adam Stan, I happen to have a spare copy of -- the soon to be announced Billboard #1 -- Trespassing in my purse. :-)
Btw, Abbey is in her mid-twenties. Gotta run. :-)

You can just feel the excitement brewing when Adam returns to Idol. We're not alone. So many casual fans and media get pumped too. He really does have the special sauce! :-) (and in light of discussion re: "underneath" on today's thread, I want to say I don't mean anything sexual by that." :-)

Hi all, If the link is still available, I would be so grateful. I was able to grab a couple songs before last night's link conked out, but am feeling very buthurt that I haven't been able to listen to Runnin. (ETA: Received, thank you!!)I'm still letting it all sink in but have to say about Underneath.... how beautiful and how raw... and how special to have Adam share this with us. It feels like he gives the most personal piece of his soul in this song. And this is just the recording. When we are privaleged to witness it live, it will be gut-wrenchingly beautiful and I won't be able to handle it... but I will manage with my box of Kleenex and hopefully a bestie or two by my side. Adam makes everything seem so alive and real!I wear my AFL Infinity necklace always, and I think of his explanation of "what you give to receive and what you recieve you give." (Paraphrasing.) I feel Adam is safe in giving us this glimpse into his soul because we give back our love and support. That may sound kukoo, but I don't care. He does that to me us. I don't post often, but I'm here every night reading the daily thread from start to finish. Ya'll are killing me today. Have to read about every 5th page or I'll never catch up. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Thanks for letting me wax on a bit. Now, back to reading, and and reading, and laughing, and crying, and thinking, and crying, and laughing. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) So alive!

Even though Adam is FIERCE, he's also a bit nerdy and niave (immature ![:-X](http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Other%20Smileys/OMGlam.gif) ) sometimes. Ditch vjj, and call them what they are... the DIVAs!! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Or..... what Mszue said. (Mszue you're so deep and so wise. I almost wouldn't think you are the same person who owns a delish pair of glam slippers.) 8-)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OCEANAROSE and TIPPYTOES!!!! Thanks Lynne for thr recap sounds like it was more than worth the trip. If he is not touring soon then I hope he plays some small shows again at the casino's to test the music or small venues.[/quote] OMG, those shows would sell out before they go on sale! But I'm in! Lynne, thank you for the wonderful recap. You included all the details we love to hear and gave us some new info. It was perfect!

Awww Hoopla, can't wait to hear your story. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) And Fanoftheman, I agree with your comments about Kevin. I like Tommy a lot, but I really appreciate something about Kevin. I think it's a maturity of musicianship... or something like that. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) I've been listening to the new songs today and I think all three are great. I love the Queenesque vibe of Trespassing; I think Cookoo really needs it's studio production behind it for us to grasp it's craziness, and I feel it in my bones that Chokehold is going to give me that emotional jolt I love from some of Adam's songs. I love reading everyone's opinions on the new songs. Just when I've made up my mind about how I feel about a song, it's production, how Adam sings it, etc., I read comments here that often open my mind to consider another angle, take another listen, or another look (looking twice/thrice, etc. at the vest and it's still not making my top 10 100 list of Adam ensembles ![:-X](http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Other%20Smileys/OMGlam.gif) ). What I love the most though is it's NEWWWWWWW music. And from the bits I've heard so far, it's smart, sophisticated, fun, funky, creative and current. I can't wait to hear more. LOVING the vocal awesomness!! :D Cheers everyone!
