I really like that they had the GA inner pit - for me it is a huge plus to have at a rock concert. The athmosphere is different and I wish they would use it for all the concerts.
'sealuv' date='Jul 21st 2014, 10:55 AM

so agree.....the GA pit makes it a totally different concert ........looking at those vids we have so far....you can see adam is in his element...he loves to feed off the pit chaos .....and he loves to have the ability to actually have physical contact with the audience.....that's when he shines the most!

what a great concert last nite! and Talc has the whole thing.... including the audience reactions!....yay!

Has anyone been able to get to the comment section on the Baltimore Sun or Washington Post reviews? The Baltimore Sun says you have to register, but I can't figure out how, and when I click on the comments link on the Washington Post, nothing happens. Just curious to see the comments.
bebeg' date='Jul 21st 2014, 3:56 PM

I can see the comment section on both articles without doing anything.

'Grand Girlie'...that's cute, and yes she is a very sweet, girlie teeny bopper and made sure we got up close!! :hug:
Those are rhinestones on her face, by the way...hard to tell from the grainy pic and I do look even older than usual having raced to get there at the posted time of 6:30 on most sites and on the ticket....only pamphlets at the gate said 8;30 which I was sure was a mistake/misprint. They actually got started about 8:15 and that was a long wait in the heat and humidity...a longer night on my feet for this over the hill dedicated Glambert'

But then of course, so very well worth it to be real life up close and personal from the opening notes and his awesome vocal greeting "Now I'm Here!" I quietly spoke back "Yea me too" almost in disbelief and almost had to pinch myself to be certain it wasn't some beautiful dream!! :hug: :wub:

Family members on the lawn were surprised when everyone stood up and stayed on their feet from the opening notes and his awesome vocal greeting and even teens commenting on how gorgeous he is! Sold out venue, totally enthusiastic and fully participating, singing almost every lyric to every song, up on their feet, screaming and cheering throughout.

All ages and some cute Argentinian boys in the blue and white team uniforms so well known from their near win of the World Cup, and some British flags waving which I hadn't seen before. Even teen boppers commenting on how he is even more gorgeous in person! We were right next to the people whose hands he was touching in the pic and probably if I wasn't awestruck and somewhat immobilized by his closeness I could have reached out and touched him!!

Settled down to listen to and savor my first ever Adam realness, awesome vocals, great sound/acoustics except for short helium sound during one of the songs. Powerful and personable stage presence and audience interaction throughout never appearing any less enthusiastic and genuine even after so many shows. The crowd loved it and sent all the love back to him and many Queen fans eagerly rewarding Brian and the band with much loud applause and appreciation.

One last adjustment, after watching the relative up front and close videos over the years, was watching the couch fun on the big screen only. The catwalk was at floor level and in the center away from our up front position so running off too see that again now on some of the great vids.

All in all a truly 'Once in a Lifetime' experience now being celebrated with family gifts of a beautiful poster and tee shirt, and my wrist band, ticket stub and gold confetti shrine in my sons guest room which I shall transport carefully back home with me as I continue to relive and cherish my beautiful 'real life' Adam memories!! <3 :hug: :wub:

Always a learning growth experience keeping up with the oh so very many multi faceted permutations and gyrations of Adam Lambert... and now his "young" friends on this tour with seemingly endless energy and enthusiasm. I probably would be more respectful of my age and never do GA again...but then again I just might!! :rolleyes: :haha:
Just now did get to see his total silliness, shmexyness on the couch,wriggling/shaking his bottom because with all the screaming waving craziness and the couch in the center at floor level I couldn't see it there except on the big screen...
too much fun!!! :hug: :w00twave:

The Jimmy Crack Corn part is on this video at about 7:59 and then he walks back up on the stage and jokes about it with Brian. So cute.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIQIlU3-CTM...Y3yaSuIHD4yrxDA

So glad you were able to attend this concert, Barb. It sure looked like an exceptional one. And you were SOOO close! Must have been thrilling! Thanks for sharing the photo too.
I've only been to one Adam concert at a smaller venue on the Glamnation Tour. My husband went with me and we had a vip table. I did stand and clap during whole concert, but he was able to sit. Our feet just ain't what they used to be. haha I don't think I would have ever made it in the standing only GA section. At least I was able to sit until concert started.
It's nice to see one our most positive and helpful members here get to enjoy our Adam. :hug:
barb4Adam' date='Jul 22nd 2014, 12:06 PM


A tear to my eye for sure ...such high praise considering ALL of the hugely dedicated and devoted Glamberts who contribute here!! :hug: :flowers:

Yes, still recovering from what turned out to be close to 5 hours standing. Love to know who messed up that posted starting time all over the net and on the tickets.. 2 hours early and changed it when we got to the entrance!!!! ;) :angry:
But big smile on my face and thrilling memories of the proximity to all of the Rock God greatness...realness!!! :hug: :wub:
Thanks for the vid info! :flowers:
