Just catching up with this forum after th e epic week in LA. Awwww, you didn't follow me on twitter? Really? tTat's too bad. Libracatz and I got there at 6am on tuesday (the day before). And amazingly, we weren't first! :teehee: A woman from Canada came the night before, by herself, and walked the streets of Hollywood Blvd all night- not smart. But she was first, and we were second and third. We were prepared for two days of camping out, as I have a camper van and there is a 24 hour parking lot right next to the Music Box. We were completely surprised when, at about noon, the manager and a security guard came out and said they were handing out line tickets. They gave us half of a numbered ticket and took our names. We had to come back with the ticket and picture Id to claim our spots in line the next day. We were suspicious and afraid the tickets woudn't be honored, but it all worked out. We contacted everyone we knew who could get there by 6 to get a ticket, but most people weren't coming in to LA until later.
Despite our special line ticket, we still arrived at the Music Box at 6 am on show day, just to make sure everyone knew what was happening. All went really smoothly, except one person with a minor knee injury took 3 people in as assistants, to get priority seating at the front of the stage. It caused some drama, but I didn't care as i got a great spot in front, a little to Monte's side. Lee Cherry was in front of me inside the barricade taking pictures and I loved watching him and talking to him a bit.
The show was a great "full circle" moment, and I know you already have all the details, pics and vids. The show had a lot of meaning for Adam and it really showed. I was very happy and very lucky to be there for it! :yes:

So I finally allowed all the emotions of this week catch up and here’s my recap of an amazing week in AdamLand!

After a less-than-stellar beginning to my trip (but it wouldn’t be an Adam trip if something didn’t go wrong with my travels), I arrived safely to my hotel around midnight Tuesday night. Wednesday began with breakfast with old friends and was followed by a nine-hour love-sit-in until the Music Box doors opened.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I love The Canyons. Alisan’s energy is very similar to Adam’s and her love for Adam bought her (and The Canyons) a free ticket into Adam fans’ hearts.

I sat behind Adam’s parents, Brad, Danielle and a few others who came and went as the evening went on. It was amazing to watch Adam’s dad being blown away by his son’s performance. His applause were heartfelt and were as primal as ours.

With Adam’s speech before CIGC, we saw Adam’s pain of years of rejection being shed. He felt validated (as he should) and even went against his own grain to ‘brag’ about the world tour and the Grammy nomination. It truly was ‘full circle’ for him (and I think for many of us who went back to see Adam’s earlier efforts to make it into the music business). The love bestowed upon him by the audience was palpable. He sang CIGC with his whole heart and we took great care to give it all the love an audience is ever capable of giving an artist of this calibre.

And then Adam made sure to send us off on an upbeat note by singing TCB and being the naughty rock-god-boy we all love.

We finished the night at Bardot’s where we listened to Adam’s songs/videos. Drinks flowed, food was welcome and the most amazing Adam Lambert cake was center-stage. I hope someone took a picture that will surface eventually.

So Thursday was the last show and although very different than the Music Box’s show, it was Adam’s farewell to the old and his anticipation of the new. You could feel his joy and pride. The band and dancers intros were a little more touching. Adam and we knew that they may or may not be available for his next tour. The respect Adam has always shown them was amplified somehow. Adam was a lot looser in his banter (which I ABSOLUTELY LOVED – Hint to Adam: there’s a way to make the shows longer and not strain your voice so much, just babble away, we’ll lap it all up!)... and bless his heart, he may not have gotten the ‘little flickers shooting out of his f*cking head’, but he DID GET PYROS!!!! Almost as good, huh, Adam? He couldn’t help himself but turn around so he could watch it too... The little boy’s wish was granted! Then after an evening of entertaining us, he felt time had come for good old down-and-dirty SEX! And SEX he had with the entire audience! (Minus the Pearlclutchers who were gratefully spared by the lack of view below Adam’s waste) :roll:

I expected tearful goodbyes but that’s not our Adam. After some wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am sex, he gave us his boyish grin, thanked us, said goodnight, took his final bow and just like that he was gone! An exclamation of “No, don’t go!” was involuntarily wrenched from my body... but in my heart, I know he will be back stronger and better than before and will be around to entertain us for years/decades to come. I only hope to be around long enough to see his star rise into the stratosphere as it is bound to do.

I capped the Goldenvoice pictures.

Okay, I uploaded 63 pics into my photobucket account. I'm at work so I should be working, therefore no time to post each pic. Feel free to do so *ahem Jory* :flowers:

My friend got up front to take the vids, but I was in the far back with my sign, so I'm not sure if Adam could see it. Should I send it to him (or a pic)?
