Adam Lambert, Javier Colon & Jeramine Paul Deliver The Biggest Spring Fling Ever
May 27, 2012 3:09 AM
By this time, the crowd had grown to over five thousand people, all anxiously awaiting Adam Lambert to bring home this epic Spring Fling, and chants of “Number One!” and “Adam-Adam-Adam!” could be heard from one end of the theme park to the other.
The chants turned to cheers as the singer and his band took the stage. Clad in a black vest, denim shorts and black boots, Adam was certainly styling for the Summer weather, but the heat didn’t impact his energy one bit!
Lambert kicked things off with his funky new title track “Trespassing,” and the crowd’s cheers only got louder. With decidedly little on-stage banter, Lambert rolled through a rocking set of classics like “Whataya Want From Me?” along with brand new tracks from his recent release such as “Kickin’ In,” “Chokehold” and the impossibly dancey “Shady.”
Lambert asked the audience if they heard the new album and I don’t there was a fan in the audience who didn’t cheer in affirmation– “I worked so damn hard on this one,” Adam recalled on stage, before thanking his fans, especially those of us here in Connecticut, for all their support.
As a special treat, the singer showed off his incredible range with an “Oh yeah” vocal solo that lead directly in to another song from Trespassing, “Broken English.”

“It got a little heavy with those last few [songs]” quipped Lambert. To lighten things up, the band started up one of the poppiest tunes on the new album, “Naked Love,” which really got the crowd going again. The excitement kept growing as Lambert teased “You guys wanna hear an oldie?” The crowd exploded as the band let loose the dancey drum beat of “If I Had You,” before performing his latest single “Better Than I Know Myself,” which the singer turned into an epic, hook-filled arena rocker, worthy of his (semi-)bandmates in Queen.
As things winded down, Lambert addressed the audience once again. “I wrote a song about myself, but also all of you.” he said. Lambert referred to his “die-hards,” and how crazy they are both in person and on Twitter– but he doesn’t mind, proudly declaring “I’m crazy too.” He dedicated one final song from his new record to the audience– “Cuckoo.”
By the end of the awesome performance, it was certainly no exagerration to say everyone was definitely a little ‘cuckoo’ for Adam.
