Stream wasn't working on the computer... just kept buffering. Switched to Ipad and it's working fine. For those of you who have an ipad or iphone, you might have better luck.
Pop that lock!!

![:o](http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Other%20Smileys/icon_eek.gif) I MISS GLAM NATION!!!!!! Me toooooo!!! I'll take the occassional one-offf... but it's so much more efficient to group 4 or 5 concerts in a region over a couple days (say Omaha, Kansas City, Des Moines, Minnesota, Peoria, Rock Island..... etc.) than it is to go from Biloxi to Thackerville!! ![Shocked!!!!](//storage.proboards.com/3270318/images/Hy2vTsmUdP6mKKBGsxJ5.gif)

Oops, I forgot to add my story. Back in the early days of Idol Forums, I was wink(something... usually numbers). This was Season 8 - Adam Lambert and I was experiencing what many of you experienced as the season unfolded.... just craziness about this guy -- nothing like i'd ever experienced as a fan before. On the forums, I told a sloppy story about how I didn't know what was happening to me -- and I'd found myself in a bit of a trance in a grocery store aisle just thinking about Adam and I cried -- right there in the grocery aisle. It was just those crazy feelings of that whole season whirling through my brain -- constantly! Someone posted in response to my story "clean up in aisle 5" so my Planet Fierce Handle was born and I was "cleanupinaisle5" on PF for the duration. When we moved to Adamtopia I decided it was time to go back to being Wink-something and it was pretty cool to just be able to use Winks and not have to add numbers to it. (Signed up early.) Winks itself isn't very interesting. Wink is part of my last name and the nickname winks is just an extension. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

I just went to Adam Official and found my original Glambert # from 2009 - took me forever to find it, but they have the original list. I was 1630. Brought back memories. What is going to upset me once I get used to seeing Adam on a show is wanting to see him every week on a show. I hope he is so good that he has to be on television at least once a week on something. Irish1139 I would love to find my #. Can you point to a particular thread or section? Ohhhh I found the thread. I see what you're saying about "it took forever." I'm still scrolling! ![:o](http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/xx348/Quu3/Adam%20Smilys/Other%20Smileys/icon_eek.gif)

I'm usually so nervous when Adam is performing on anything televised on a national scale like this, but for some reason I'm just excited as hell and not nervous at all! Seriously, it's so nice cuz I'm usually in knots. It's probably because it's taped but I think I'm going to be able to watch this in "real time" and just enjoy!!
Thank you to all who have been bringing in tweets, etc all day. So much awesomeness!
Sorry if this has been discussed and I missed it, but regarding the singles on iTunes. Do the glee songs generally dominate for a day or two and do we expect MTN to be up there?

I've been following ticket sales for Winstar and I think it's looking really good. Looks like he's sold about 1400 tickets, which incidentally is more than Train, Dwight Yokam, Three Dog Night and Flo Rida -- who are all performing within a few weeks of Adam.
The three acts who've sold more at this point (and two of these are next week, and one Nov. 22) are Willie Nelson, Reba and Gary Allen.
I wonder if Glee might provide a little spike?

Winks, the only reason I would say your guess for Winstar might be slightly low is because it is NYE. I would guess 250K. Definitely not 500K. Winstar & the venue & the tickets prices are not big enough for that. However, last NYE at that exclusive resort in Bali? IMO, 500K is entirely possible. The Fountainbleu event probably has a high fee too. For one thing, it has sponsors! Mys*&@^#r50 I can't argue with that. Your examples are good illustrations of the varying fee ranges. It's all dependent on the situation. Who was shopping (adam, the venue, both?) how much $$ on the table... all kinds of variables. Often there's a fee plus expenses scenario too. I can see a $200,000 fee, plus travel package. Transportation, lodging, etc. for 10 people. That could add up easily to a $250,000 fee package.

This is interesting! Think we could start a kick-starter for Atop to hire Adam, just for us?? Huh Huh could we? We've raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for other things... why not a private Adam concert?? I like it!! ![AdamSing](//storage.proboards.com/3270318/images/Agjh6ck4QHEcIMNXPaLx.gif)
