review of tonight concert

'Idols Live' delivers mixed bag of performances
Watching Adam Lambert - the 27-year-old, now-openly-gay American Idol runner-up perform David Bowie's theatrical 1971 tune Life on Mars? to an arena packed with screaming tweens - it seemed peculiar that the eccentric glam-rocker didn't take home the gold in the singing competition's eighth season.

Strange, too, was how a 10-minute medley of Bowie, Muse and Led Zeppelin songs (coupled with Lambert's PG-13 gyrations and impromptu uses of both an oversize feather on a stick and a hot-pink bra tossed onstage) so enthused the mixed-gender, multi-age crowd.

Perhaps it was because more than two-thirds of the way into American Idols Live!, a three-hour spectacle in Value City Arena, a parade of the season's top-10 finalists had yet to start a serious blaze onstage.

Sure, there were the messy-yet-confident stylings of 17-year-old Allison Iraheta, who strummed an electric guitar through Pink's So What and wailed to the Janis Joplin cover Cry Baby like a old soul.

Matt Giraud and Scott MacIntyre, who both played the piano during their three-song sets (which included predictable fare by the Fray and Keane), were stronger and more confident than on TV.

Third-place finisher Danny Gokey cut back on the goofy dancing that earned him scorn from judge Simon Cowell, but he didn't fully curb his moves. A lively interpretation of Michael Jackson's P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing) made me smile.

Others didn't quite deliver the goods.

Megan Joy, sporting a blonde Afro wig, took her Amy Winehouse-style vocals into camp territory, while Lil Rounds couldn't reach Mary J. Blige heights.

Former oil-rig worker Michael Sarver needn't cover Ne-Yo tunes - and ought to cut back on the beauty-queen waves - and Anoop Desai, while smooth at projecting R&B material, didn't pick the right tunes (such as Bobby Brown's My Prerogative).

Already hindered by an intermission, enthusiasm had dampened by the time winner Kris Allen was set to perform. Lambert, after all, is a tough act to follow.

Yet the guitar-playing, churchgoing Arkansas native - speculated to have received a hefty chunk of votes following the elimination of Gokey, a worship leader from Wisconsin - did his best to chug through the so-so material by Kanye West, the Killers, Bill Withers and Rob Thomas.

Noticeably missing, though, was Allen's first single, No Boundaries, the much-condemned tune penned by new Idol judge Kara DioGuardi that was reportedly scrapped from the tour.

Closing the night was a group performance of Journey's Don't Stop Believin', a fitting tribute to a juggernaut reality program based on dreams - and filled with characters we invest in (both emotionally and through sheer viewing hours) for months.

The accompanying tour is hardly perfect, but watching the hopefuls sing for their supper one last time is, however cliche, appropriate closure before the sun sets on another American Idol chapter and a new day begins.

Basically, they were doing a slow ride! HA. From my friend's seat (who shot the videos), you really couldn't tell how close they really were. She was basically stradling his leg and he was right in her personal space. When Adam picked up the tickler whip and started strutting in Allison's direction, she was like, "hit me with it," -- that was the look on her face and she was saying yes with her head. She totally loved it; they really seemed to enjoy it tonight! HA.

I am sooooo totally spazzing, thank you! I had to walk up a little closer than I was to be sure I had a good toss.... which I pitched up there during Life on Mars, snuck back to my seat, and then when he picked it up I screamed some BSC stuff, idk "I FCKING LOVE YOU" or something, and proudly screamed to the guy next to me "THAT WAS MINE!!!!" and he screamed, too! :haha:

My Complete Recap of the Idols Live in Columbus

You guys count on me to be as thorough as possible, so let me start my recap of the Columbus stop on the “American Idols Live Tour 2009” with a word or two about the venue…

I have to give MAJOR props to the people at the Schottenstein Center for switching one of the men’s restrooms to a women’s since there were WAY more women at the show. Although, I have to say that it was a little freaky walking into a men’s room…

I also have to give them props for opening the doors an hour and a half before showtime, since I was there so early because of the afternoon press hour. It gave me a chance to chill out and have a little snack before the show.

But it also gave me a chance to sweat out the lack of people in the arena. I was a little concerned when five minutes before the show started, the front row wasn’t even full yet. I guess everyone was just running late, because when the spotlight started to roam the crowd, the floor was full. But the upper sections never did fill up. I would say it was a ways away from a sellout…

At first, I was impressed at the massive improvement in the graphics and lights from the last Idols concert I attended (the season six edition), but they quickly got annoying. And during a few sets, they were downright nauseating. Clearly, no one had ever sat dead center in the upper level and saw the effect they had on people…

The season six show altered the tour format and had the Idols sing in different combinations. But last year they went back to the tried-and-true one-at-a-time in order of elimination format. This year, it was handled almost like a countdown show as each Idol was introduced with a graphics package and an announcement of their number…

Up first, was #10 Michael Sarver. Michael was a great way to get it started as he came out with a high energy rendition of “In Love With a Girl” (Gavin DeGraw). He tried the same with his second song, “Closer” (Ne-Yo), but Michael just wasn’t meant to do an upbeat R&B song and it came off a little karaoke…

Then, it was Megan’s turn. And I’m afraid she did nothing to change my previous opinion of her. Her version of “Put Your Records On” was actually decent, but those word pronunciations are still so weird. Then Megan did “Tears Dry On Their Own” (Amy Winehouse) and it just didn’t work at all. The performance was not that good, the song was kind of strange and the graphics department did Megan no favors with a weird animation on the big screen that looked like the rejected opening credits for “Down With Love.” It was totally cheesy. Megan, by the way, was sporting a new afro for the first time. It looked cute in the press room, but it just didn’t translate as well with her hot pink Marilyn Monroe-style dress…

Scott MacIntyre rose from the floor seated at the piano. Scott is a super-talented pianist, but his vocals have improved since the show as well. The Keane song “Bend & Break” was a good choice for him, even though it wasn’t all that familiar. Scott then talked to the crowd about the “high-five heard around the world” before taking his seat back at the piano to do “A Thousand Miles” (Vanessa Carlton). I questioned this song choice when I first heard it, but I was wrong because any song that allows Scott to play the piano a lot is a good choice…

Michael did a decent job getting the crowd into it, but Megan seemed to completely lose them. Scott got them back to a certain extent, but Lil Rounds never had a chance. At the risk of sounding like Paula Abdul, I would say she looked great and she had incredible stage presence. But the vocals just weren’t there. And sadly, she was the first Idol who got to do three songs. I would have much rather heard Scott play the piano some more. Lil did “Be Without You” before breaking into “Just Fine” (both by Mary J. Blige) and she should have knocked them out of the park, but she didn’t come anywhere close. “No One” (Alicia Keys) was a little better, but she blew any goodwill she earned with her rendition of “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It).” She made a big deal about working with Beyonce’s choreographer, but then barely showed us any of the moves. And the vocals were incredibly spotty, especially since she let the backup singers take most of the notes on the chorus...

At this point, I was really starting to have serious buyers’ remorse. But then Anoop Desai took the stage and really surprised me. In fact, it was the first time I let out any kind of yell at all. Anoop had a big following among the college students in the arena and he wowed them and me with “Always On My Mind” (Willie Nelson/Elvis Presley). His vocals are silky smooth live and he did a lot of really cool vocal acrobatics. “Mad” (Ne-Yo) was also solid, but the silly graphics of water drops probably just made people need to run to the bathroom. Anoop closed out his set with his crowd pleaser, “My Prerogative” (Bobby Brown). It was a solid performance, so I was a little disappointed that the crowd didn’t get more into it.

The crowd pleasers continued with Matt Giraud rocking out “Hard to Handle” (Otis Redding/Black Crowes). But what the crowd really wanted to hear was “Georgia On My Mind” (Ray Charles). Matt is an extremely talented piano player and he had a lot of fun with his arrangement on this one. It’s also when he put on his hat for the first time. Matt’s set concluded with “You Found Me” (The Fray), and he did a much better job with it here than he did on the show, but it still had its issues vocally. Matt’s piano playing, however, had not issues…

It was then time for Megan to return the stage (in a new outfit) to start “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You” (Four Seasons/Andy Williams). She was later joined by Lil (also in a new outfit). And if I thought these two were weak on their own, well, together was even worse…

Thankfully, they were replaced by Scott and Matt rising from the floor seated at pianos doing a duet of “Tell Her About It” (Billy Joel), which ended in a bit of a piano duel. I could have listened to the two of them all night, so I really wish they could have done more songs together. I also have to give the show props for the way they made things as easy as possible for Scott…

Michael then re-emerged (in a suit) for “Suspicious Minds” (Elvis Presley) and it was pretty good, but then he was totally blown off the stage with the smooth sounds of Anoop returning to start out “Beggin’” (Madcon/Four Seasons). He was joined by Matt, Scott, Michael, Lil and Megan, who each took turns in the spotlight. And then all of them (including Scott) sported some pretty cool choreography (and some pretty cool duds). It was a good way to end the first act…



Then the 20-minute intermission was announced, and the crowd promptly booed. Probably because they knew that would only delay the appearance of Adam Lambert on the stage…

Don’t believe me? During the intermission, the big screens showed a commercial for the “American Idol Experience” at Disney World and every time Adam appeared on the screen, the crowd screamed. I knew if they were screaming that much at a little video, that they were going to go nuts when he actually appeared on stage…


But first, it was Allison’s turn. And as much as I hate to admit it, I was pretty disappointed with Allison’s set. The first thing to note is that the volume was turned up tremendously, and Allison got a little lost in the band. And the nausea-inducing spinning swirls on the big screen didn’t help her any. She shouted most of “So What” (P!nk) and in all honesty, watching a 16-year-old sing about her ex-husband just didn’t work for me. “Cry Baby” was better, but she seemed to totally lose the crowd through the spoken part of the song. I think I would have cut that part out. Her set concluded with “Barracuda” and the band was so loud, it just got completely lost. I think they should have found a younger, more crowd-friendly song for her…

If Allison lost the crowd (and I believe she did), Danny Gokey quickly got them back with “P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)” (Michael Jackson). I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed the performance. He even managed to do a good job with “Maria Maria” (Santana), which I had thought was a bad choice for him. However, he should have seriously left out the dance moves as they were not good. If you followed my blog last season, you know the big 180 I did with Danny, but I have to admit that he is a pretty good performer. And he managed to hook me with his almost gut-wrenching performance of “What Hurts the Most” (Rascal Flatts). Then, after an inspirational pep talk for the audience, he closed his set with “My Wish” (Rascal Flatts), leaving me as conflicted about him as ever…



But I didn’t have much time to think about that as Danny had barely left the stage when the chants for Adam Lambert began…

Now, at this point in the show, I had a decision to make. As a member of the media, I had the opportunity to go down to the stage and take some pictures of the last part of Kris’ set and the final group number. But in order to do that, I would have to leave the arena to go meet our escort and that would mean missing Adam Lambert’s entire set. So, did I try and take a good picture for you guys, or did I stay and watch Adam? I think the lack of pictures in this post tells you my decision…

And for the record, I don’t regret it. Sorry…

When Adam’s bold, bright and loud intro package hit the screens, the place went nuts.
Adam emerged through a mass of bright lights to do “Whole Lotta Love” (Led Zeppelin) and he completely embraced his role as a rock god. His stage presence is something I can’t even explain. You know how when people parody fashion photographers they always say, “Make love to the camera”? Well, it almost seemed like Adam was making love to cameras all over the arena and the crowd loved it. Adam then did “Starlight” (Muse) and he showed every rock god pose in his repertoire. He then took a seat for a gorgeous rendition of “Mad World,” which the crowd—and I—loved. Adam then welcomed Allison back to the stage to do “Slow Ride,” which was Allison’s best song of the night. They have a great chemistry and sound fantastic together. Adam had some fun with Allison by smacking her on the behind with one of the bras someone had thrown on stage (Yes, there were several underwear items thrown on the stage during Adam’s set.). Adam closed his set with a David Bowie medley of “Life On Mars”/“Fame”/“Let’s Dance.” During “Fame,” Adam removed his jacket and did some more suggestive dance moves. And the more risqué Adam got, the more the crowd loved it.

I said in my earlier post that Adam is a freak of nature, and I mean that as a total compliment. His singing is so effortless and his stage presence is beyond words. If this guy is handled correctly, he could be a gigantic star. And yes, I’m totally upset that he was not part of yesterday’s press hour…


Finally, the countdown reached #1, quieting the Adam chants. Kris Allen got a lot of cheers himself, but it was a totally different kind of energy. Kris started his set with a great rendition of “Heartless” (Kanye West/The Fray) and then went into the song that replaced “No Boundaries,” “All These Things I’ve Done” (The Killers). I was concerned about that one, but it was a good performance and the crowd got into singing the “I’ve got soul, but I’m not a soldier” refrain. The crowd really got excited when Kris sat at the piano to do “Ain’t No Sunshine,” (Bill Withers) and it was gorgeous—even though he once again just barely missed that last note. Kris then went into “Bright Lights” (Matchbox Twenty) at the piano and it was probably one of the shrewdest choices for any of the Idols. It made me wish that Kris had done more Matchbox Twenty/Rob Thomas songs on the show. Kris closed his set with “Hey Jude,” which elicited an “Awww” from the crowd. Everyone in the arena sang along on the “Na Na Na Nas” and Kris was joined by several of the other Idols at the song’s end…

Usually at this point, the performers do a fake exit when you know they’re returning for an encore. But they didn’t even attempt to fake anyone out and instead launched right into Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing,” bringing the Idols out two at a time kicking off with Matt and Scott coming out of the floor with pianos. Kris and Adam came out last—also out of the floor—to lots of screaming from the crowd. Even though that song is starting to get seriously overused, it still worked. The Idols threw in a chorus of “Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye” in the middle just for the fun of it, before closing with the final refrain of “Stop”…

Overall, I would say the show was good, but that’s as strong of a compliment as I can muster. In the first act, Anoop and Matt—as well as the “Beggin’” number—were solid, but they weren’t enough to save the act from the issues of Megan and Lil. In fact, I would say that the two acts were like night and day both in style and—unfortunately for my ear—in volume. Adam was amazing, but I would’ve liked for him to sing some more recognizable, crowd-friendly songs. And Kris was amazing as well, but after the spectacle of Adam, his set kind of lost something. I think they should’ve staggered the performers like they did in season six when Blake performed before the intermission. Maybe they were afraid people would leave (I did see some people leaving after Adam’s set.)…

Usually after a show there’s one performance that I just can’t stop talking about, and that just wasn’t there for me after this one. If I had to choose a favorite, I would probably go with Adam’s “Mad World,” followed by—believe it or not—Anoop’s “Always On My Mind.” I also really liked the group number, “Beggin’.”

I would say that it was worth the money just for Adam and Kris, but it would have been nice if the ladies could have stepped it up a little too…

So were any of you there? If so, be sure to let me know what you thought…

And later this week, I will share with you my complete interviews with Matt, Megan, Scott, Danny and yes, Kris. So stay tuned…

Here is my AI Tour recap for 8.25.09 in Columbus, Ohio.

Before the show, my daughter and I made signs for all the idols, plus one for the MFB. They turned out really well, and we received a lot of compliments on them. We had printed pics of all the idols, a few extra of Adam, a copy of Rolling Stone, a camera with a fresh battery and 3 memory cards. We headed out the door around 11:00am to be sure we had a good spot at the barricades.

We got to the arena shortly after noon. There didn't seem to be very many people waiting there; I wasn't sure what sort of crowd to expect, but this wasn't it. Many of the folks had thought to bring lawn chairs and/or blankets, plus food & refreshments. Remembering an earlier comment here, we were both armed with drinks, but I would have definitely brought a chair with me if I had thought of it. No matter, we plunked down on the ground, right around the middle of the barricades, and were even lucky enough to have a spot of shade. There were a lot of Gokey fans, Kris fans, and several Matt fans. I didn't see many obvious Adam fans and began to get a bit nervous.

There were already 3 buses there when we arrived; the next group of buses, the ones with the idols, arrived at about 1:45p.

About 2:00, a few more security guards popped out, so we knew we were getting closer. The crowd had picked up a bit, but had I not arrived until that moment, I still would not have had any trouble getting a spot at the front. I'm sure this might vary from one city to the next, but in hindsight, I would not have wasted the time in arriving too early. Another minor note, I thought there would at least be port-a-pots somewhere to use; there weren't.... so, yes, bring enough water to keep from being dehydrated, but not so much that you have to pee!

About 2:15, the first Idol appeared and it was Scott + his handler. It wasn't the brother I remember seeing on tv, but he was really cute. Scott took his time working his way down the line, stopping to sign and pose with everyone who asked. When he got to us, his handler read our sign to him - he signed this plus a pic. He agreed to pose with my daughter and handed her one of his cards. He was sooooo sweet and better looking in person.

The next person out was Matt. He also started out taking his time with the fans; he was signing, posing, and even giving random shoutouts on people's cellphones. Right before he got to us, a security guy told him he only had 2 more minutes. He still stopped to sign (he looked at the pic we had and said, "God, not this pic!") but he signed it anyway. He also signed our dueling pianos sign; I did get a couple of snaps of him, and he made a point to just sort of hurry down the rest of the line so that he could at least give an autograph to everyone who wanted one. I thought that was really sweet of him. I also have to add that he was really cute in person! I never really cared for him much on the show, either physically or musically, but I was pretty surprised that I actually thought he was kind of hot.

The last one out to the barricades was Michael Sarver. He also took his time working the line and stopped to chat up everybody. When he got to us, he showed mad love for our sign and thanked us repeatedly for making it for him. My daughter asked him to wear her rainbow blingie shutter shades and pose for a pic, which he did more than willingly. I also posed for a pic with him, and we got his autograph. Michael went inside, I think it was around 4:00 - he was probably out there for 45 minutes or so. He was shorter than I expected him to be, but just sooooo nice. Squishy. ;)

We killed some time and eventually entered the arena and found our seats - 8th row floor, off to the side just a bit, but still really good. Much closer than we anticipated.

MICHAEL SARVER: He did a great job opening the show. Everyone was up, lots of cheers & screams. "I'm in Love with a Girl" was really good, better than I expected. He seemed pretty confident onstage. His second song, "Closer," wasn't bad, but a bit cheesy. While our section remained standing through the entire concert, I noticed that, by this point, much of the arena was sitting down.

MEGAN JOY: She was sporting a fro! She's one that I tried to like this season, but I couldn't really get into her. She sounded better than I expected, and her body is smoking! She looked sort of like a pin-up 70s Barbie doll. I thought the restroom people graphics behind her were nauseating and tried my very best not to look. Anyway, Megan was okay, but I think the show lost a bit of momentum at that point; it would have benefited from a bit more energy or intimacy.

SCOTT MACINTYRE: After our positive fan encounter, I was a bit more open minded. He sounded good, and he's definitely at his best behind the piano. He was very nice to listen to, and I enjoyed him more than I did while he was on the show.

LIL ROUNDS: She came out and looked stunning!! She had long, wavy hair, a form-fitting dress, and she freaking owned it. I thought her opening medley was spectacular - she sounded like the Lil I remember from the auditions, the one who I expected to be the last girl standing. Momentum picked up in the stadium, and I think a few more people got up to dance. Unfortunately, that was her best moment. "No One" seemed to go on for an eternity. She shed her dress for "Single Ladies" and shook her booty, but I thought it seemed a bit forced. Her dancing was okay, and her singing was all right, but it seemed like something was missing.

ANOOP DESAI: His rendition of "Always on my Mind" was spectacular! Dude has pipes; this is the kind of thing he needs to be doing. I don't remember his 2nd song at all, and he closed with "My Prerogative." I didn't really care for it and found myself giggling at his hip swiveling, but there were a few audience members loving every minute.

MATT GIRAUD: "Hard to Handle" was amazing. He can bang the sh*t out of a piano and really bring the house down. He woke the audience back up, and it was at this point that I realized I could actually support the guy and hope he ends up with a career. This was probably my favorite non-Adam song of the night. "Georgia on my Mind" was very nice, then he did the Fray song and I kinda wished he hadn't have. It wasn't awful, but "Hard to Handle" was just so much better that I hated for him to go out with that.

CHEESY GROUP MEDLEY: I actually kind of liked Sarver's "Suspicious Minds," but Elvis, he ain't. Sort of the lounge singer vibe going there, but he smiled and waved at my daughter, so she was happy. :) Megan & Lil didn't really mesh together. Lil was okay during the rapping part of Beggin'; Anoop came out wearing glasses, and I found it hard to take any of this seriously. The Dueling Pianos were AWESOME and by far the highlight! Made me like both of them more.

INTERMISSION: I mention this because we had a sign that said "#I WANT MY MFB!" and the band was still onstage while the lights were up. We held up the sign and Aaron spotted it and waved. He pointed it out to the rest of the band and we got more waves, thumbs up, etc. We got a good minute of loving from it - well worth the time it took to make the sign. ;) There were all sorts of BSC screams whenever Adam appeared on the screens, and especially during the Disney video.

ALLISON IRAHETA: Gotta love her! She did "So What" with the guitar and pretty much stayed in one place. I loved her singing but would've rather she chucked the guitar so she could work the stage. Luckily, she did for "Cry Baby" which was really powerful, and in "Barracuda," she just rocked it out. She has so much energy and just zooms around the stage - tons of fun to watch, but really hard to get a pic. I loved her and the crowd did, too.

DANNY GOKEY: I have gone back & forth on my Gokey opinion this season, but I have to admit I really enjoyed PYT, and the crowd seemed to just love it. I also have to admit that I was losing my focus at this point because Adam was next, so the rest of his set is a blur. Somewhere in there, he took of his jacket to a lot of appreciative screams, and yes, there was a mic stand maneuver; this all made me LOL. I liked Santa Maria the least; he was more in his element with Rascal Flatts; perhaps the talks of him goin' country aren't so out of there after all. The preaching wasn't *that* long and was a positive message, but I still would've rather not had it. I think I would have been more receptive to him if he hadn't been preceding Adam.

ADAM LAMBERT: What can I say that hasn't already been said, but OMFG. The screams took over the arena during the intro, bringing it to a deafening level. My screams were among them. When he emerged from the shadows, it was like the air in the arena had been changed. This was no longer an American Idol concert; we were in the presence of our Rock God, and everybody in the house knew it. His presence was massive; he was truly larger than life - he might as well have been 20 feet tall. He just towered over everything and everyone. We were his at that moment and he knew it. Just seeing him took my breath away; he was gorgeous, yet fierce, and completely captivating.

WLL was everything I could've asked for and more. Emo hair! Woooooooommmmaaaaaannnnnn! Backdoor man! an insane amount of mic stand maneuvers to serve as little teasers before that epic, pumping, microbation moment. BSC screams greeted every single move, every swivel, every thrust. No amount of videos I had viewed had prepared me for this moment. He was sex on stage, commanding our full attention, and by this point, I had completely lost my sh*t. I knew at this moment that I was right. We're all right. He's the musical savior we've been longing for, even if we didn't know before him that we were missing it. He's Adam f(*&ing Lambert, baby, and he ain't going nowhere. He's ours because he chooses to be, and I am damn thankful for that.

Starlight was so beautiful and magical. I love the song, but to hear it live, and with an ethereal mood, just took me to a different place. I felt like I was floating with him, I was swaying with the crowd. I found myself wanting to reach out and touch him, not even for a grope, but just to see if he is real, if he's of this world.

Mad World was hauntingly beautiful. I had feared I might not love this song, due to so much exposure, but he completely drew me into his soul. The emotion he invoked made my heart ache, his facial expressions were so intense, and this truly felt like he was privately sharing an intimate moment. Chills ran down my spine.

Slow Ride! This was a crazy performance - just so much fun and energy. The two of them just feed off each other and it's electrifying to watch. Columbus went nuts with the props - we might be midwestern, but we're not all prudes! Alli twirled boxers while Adam slung a bra, and Adam slapped Alli with a blue tickler whip! He loved it, she loved it, and the crowd ate it up. These two just rocked it out, it was sexy, it was fun, and it had the whole place energized.

FIANLLY it's time for the Bowie medley, the moment I've most been awaiting all night. Life on Mars began - and I love this song - but I snuck up towards the stage. I got close and tossed a riding crop (a perfect throw!) and tiptoed back to my seat before that portion ended. Again, he's powerful and breathtaking. Freakiest show! As Fame begins, my favorite part, I once again lose my sh*t. The dancing, the swiveling, and OMFG OFF COMES THE JACKET!!! I lose it, I scream, I flail. "YOU'RE F(*&ING GORGEOUS!!!!" escapes from the back of my throat, and I don't even piss off the people around me - they all turn to share their agreement! He's dancing, he's playing, we're screaming, I'm flailing, and then he PICKS UP MY CROP AND SMACKS HIMSELF WITH IT!!!!1 He's kicking boas offstage, picks up another whip, and I'm spazzing and spazzing more with each minute. He segues into "Let's Dance" and doesn't even tell us to get up and do it - we already are. I soak in every last minute and just wish there could be more.


KRIS ALLEN: A bit sobering after Adam, but probably a good thing because I was nowhere near composed. Heartless was greeted with enthusiastic cheers, but at some point, I think most people retook their seats. I liked the way they dropped the curtain to make the stage more intimate, and I've got to say, I enjoyed him much much more in person that I ever did while he was on the show. He's totally grown on me, and he actually does have a stage presence. I didn't expect one, but he was good! I can't remember much from one song to the next due to my Adam-induced high, but I know I didn't mind it. Ain't No Sunshine was my favorite. At some point, the curtain was lifted, and little pocket rocked it out with the band! I wasn't sure if he could hold his own, but he totally did. Hey Jude segued into the group coming out....straight into DSB, which (shhh) I've never particularly cared for that song, but it brought me that cute little Kradam interaction, and a glory note ( ! ), so it was all happy and cheesy and fun.

Having stayed through the entire set, we still decided to try our luck at the barricades. We exited on the opposite side of the arena and worked our way around. We were still able to snag a spot in the middle of the area. My daughter was able to squinch her way to the front, and I had just 1-2 people in front of me at any give time. Much to our delight, Adam was the first one out! Right on his heels was Megan. Megan found her way to us first - she's so pretty in person, despite the fro. She was smiling and happy and signing away.

Shortly thereafter, Adam. Oh. Em. Eff. Gee. I canNOT describe what it is like to see him up close in person. He's beautiful. Gorgeous. Every positive, complimentary adjective you can think of. No matter how many pictures you've seen of him, they don't come close to comparing. He has an aura, a light. He glows. He is quite truly and honestly the most stunning human being that I have ever seen. That I could imagine ever seeing. He is beyond beautiful in a mystical, magical way. I couldn't take my eyes off him, and I can't even articulate this, but he's so amazingly, wonderfully gorgeous in a way I can't begin to explain. As he drew near, I was entranced, but somehow managed to hold up a few pics over someone else's head. He sign them and he smiled, I melted and struggled to speak, but I think I managed a "thank you." He made it to my daughter who told him he was fierce. He gave her that sweet "thank you" and signed her mag and pic. He continued down the line. My daughter turned to me, visibly shaking. "He said 'thank you.' I told him he was fierce, and he said 'thank you.'" I broke from my trance, and we both decided to leave. We had just seen Adam Lambert, no one else mattered.

We hopped in the car and I was still so overcome that I made a wrong turn. I righted myself and started making plans for another show. 20 minutes of heaven are worth any price. Four days have passed, my voice is still hoarse, and I'm frenetically rewatching the vids and reviewing the pics. If there's anyone out there who hasn't gone or is still hesitant, DO IT. GO. You will not be disappointed. He exceeded every expectation or perception that I might have had. A live experience with Adam is worth every dollar, every drop of sweat or blood.


If I ever get around to uploading pics, I'll post a link here. I have some decent shots of most of the idols, but most of my Adam pics didn't turn out so well since I literally lost my focus. :haha:

LittleBee, if you wouldn't mind, and as a personal favor, would you amend the following in the OP? :flowers:

Items thrown on stage:lots of whips, a riding crop, two boas kicked offstage
Shout outs to crowd:"Look Out" before throwing riding crop into audience

You'll probably think bad of me for this, but my brother and I left right after Adam was done. I had school the next morning, and it was important that I get a good spot and stay as long as I could for Adam. Don't think I dislike Kris, because I love his talent and respect him.
But yeah, we got a spot right up against the barricades. He started closer to where my brother and I were, and he ended up signing my RS and my tour program. People were starting to shove a bit once he got closer, though.
But I LOVED it :) I got to hold his hand for about 2 seconds :)
