What an amazing Night.
After waiting all those hours for him today after the show he was first out. When he came out people started to scream (picture Elvis) where people would be practically passing out.
Neil is right he is not human, when he came around the corner it was something you will never see again, like a comet he is larger than life he is beautiful (so much more beautiful then TV) and although seeing him perform was spectacular truly seeing him in person is an experience I will never forget.
I now understand why professional media have a hard time interviewing him both men and women because he is so ICONIC it is not like anyone on the planet. There will never be another Adam he is the most unique and mystifying and soulful person I have ever seen. You could be Madonna or Bowie or president, but he makes you step back and stops you dead in your tracks in awe. He truly makes you gasp, without realizing you are doing it.
HE slowly got through the crowd to the farthest end, and he stood and smiled and said thank you to every single person. He spent so much time with each step he took trying to be there for everyone. There was not one place where he didnt speak, smile, laugh or wink at everyone. If you ever hear he is a DIVA people are lying. He was soo patient, and so REAL after seeing the cast of clowns this afternoon with their egos and personas (less Scott) he has none of this he is so accessible and genuine and sincere and you know you are talking to the “real Adam” unlike the others where you are getting “entertainment” while they work the crowd and are not sincere, nice yes but now the real them. He looked every single person in the eye and tried to reach as far back as he could for pictures etc to sign he never ever rushed and he made you feel like you had all day.
It was truly like being intimate with him one on one in a crowd of a thousand people.
The whole time he was there everyone screamed ADAM ADAM and we LOVE YOU ADAM and Vancouver Loves YOu or just screamed. They never let up and they did it together. In between was OMG OMG OMG!!
When he was finally done and the next ones came out (he was first) we stood back and just watched awhile soaking it all in, there was not one shout of a name all the idols had their turn and you never knew from the crowd who was there. A couple of hoots out but pretty reserved but when Adam was there the energy goes up farther then the space shuttle can reach, he brings you into the magic of his world and you feel like you have truly left this world for another.

I spent all day getting Gaga’ed. My nails weren’t dry when my friend came to pick me up. I was so nervous, I kept dropping everything. I thought my black nail polish bottle would break when I dropped on the tile floor — eeck!! Got to our seats and were surrounded by Adam fans with signs etc. Everyone had black nail polish – I have to say that I had the best guyliner though! Michael Sarver was quite good, people seemed to like him. Megan cute. Anoop was very popular – he was a cool dude! My friend is Indian (from India) and said that Anoop had classic Bollywood moves/hand gestures etc – and would do well in India if he decides to do shows there. She also said he was handsome by Indian standards – I told her he was pretty cute by caucasian standards too! The crowd also went wild for Matt – he went over big here! Danny had some fans too – but I noticed half the floor sat down when he came on and they had all be standing previously. He had his moment – but my friend could tell I was annoyed with him. Then ADAM!!! Everyone was on their feet and screaming – I have been to alot of concerts at GMPlace and I think the only time I have heard it louder was during a play off hockey game! I was so excited I was shaking, and I am still trembling now. I tried so hard to hold the video camera still but it was so hard!!! I managed to get Slow Ride. The Bra moment was priceless – typical Vancouver I tell you – Party Party Party!!!!! He’s lucky that is all that was thrown up there. I remember people at a Prince Concert actually doin’ it in the seats about 12 years ago – we ain’t shy here that’s for sure! I wanted to get all 3 songs on the Bowie Medley, but my body had to dance to Lets Dance. OMG he was hot! He sang Baby tonight not Woman for Whole Lotta Love – but that was okay. At the end of his set as he was going under the stage he said “I Love You Vancouver!” – and in my OCD – delusional state I was sure that he was talking directly to me as me name on here is Vancouver Loves Adam! Kris was next and was good – but frankly his set was anticlimatic – but in a nice way – kind of like the cigarette after a really good you know what! It gave us a chance to gather ourselves for the trip home! Then I came in and canoodled with hubby for a bit and told him about the show and then downloaded my vids.
Hope they aren’t too bad, I could barely hold the camera!

So Danny went off. The lights went out. For all the previous contestants, the little intro reel had started right away when the person before them finished, but they waited a good 30 seconds to show Adam’s, letting the tension build. I had chills all over me and I was cheering louder than I’d ever screamed before, lol. Then his little intro video started and oh my freaking God, did Vancouver scream. Pretty much 50 times louder than they’d screamed for any of the others. The place was ELECTRIFIED. So anyway, Adam came on and I was pretty much screaming and crying the whole time. I couldn’t believe it was really him. You know when you see someone on TV for so long and they’re amazing but you think ‘oh, they can’t actually be that good looking or that talented, it’s just for tv’. No. He was @#@*$(ing AMAZING. His voice…oh my god. I don’t know how he does it, but he is hands down the best singer, dancer, performer, ANYTHING I’ve ever seen live. He sounded 10x better than on TV. That man knows how to sell a song…he was literally making love to the crowd (and for those of you who are wondering, he didn’t tone anything down for the tour. His dance moves were extreeeemely sexual haha ). I was just freaking speechless. And yeah, someone threw a bright red bra on the stage and he picked it up and twirled it round his head like a stripper during Slow Ride and threw it in the crowd. It was perfect lol..And he left the stage just like he’d come on…like a rockstar.
Frick, I love me some Adam Lambert.

Adam-excerpt from Vancouver concert reported by Kirsten on mjsbigblog.com
(…) An alien did land. His name was Adam and I knew it would be loud (every time his photo had appeared on the screen in between repeats of the “All-American Girl” video, a loud cheer would go up. I’m pretty sure that the cheering was not just because we weren’t having to watch “No Surprise” again). Anyway, an ear-splitting roar occurred and everybody seemed to be on their feet. And a cow three rows up started waving around her cheap-@ss sign so I didn’t see much of Adam unless he was on the other side of the stage. Look lady, if he doesn’t acknowledge your ugly sign the first 15 times you waved it as high as you could, perhaps he is ignoring you. I wish I would have saved some Dibbs so I could have lobbed them at the back of her head. I don’t even like Adam so I can imagine how livid his actual fans were. So, I hate “Whole Lotta Love”. I hated it when Zepplin originally sang it. I hated it when Daughtry sang it on tour. I hated when Adam sang it on the show. So, odds were slim I was going to like it this time either. And, “No Surprise” (no 19M, that is not your cue to play that video AGAIN), I didn’t. Yes, he did the thing with the mic stand and I almost burst out laughing. It looked so rehearsed. I remember laughing during Ace’s heartbeat thing during the S5 concert and if fan looks could kill (I’d be dead), so I made sure I did not this time. Then he sang “Mad World” and won me over. I love that. The ethereal quality of his voice during this song is captivating. Plus, when he isn’t concentrating on “The Adam Show” I find that he comes across as much more genuine. He followed it up with “Starlight” and was on a roll. I really enjoyed that as well. Now it was time for Allison to come out and sing “Slow Ride” (the only song I really enjoyed from stupid Hard Rock week) and they did a fantastic job. It was slightly marred by an underwear incident. I say marred, because Allison and Adam had a great vibe going on there and the audience attention was ripped away by the distraction of a rude concert goer. So, the audience ended up being amused rather than focusing on the performers. Way to go rude concert goer. Finally, Adam ended his set with the Bowie Medley. Somebody let Mayor McCheese out of his cell and he programmed some truly cheestastic imagery for the screen during the first song of the medley. Then, they wrestled McCheese away from the backscreen program and I could focus on the rest of Adam’s performance. It was fine. I don’t really like the rock wail (I know others do and the concert isn’t all about me), but I much preferred “Mad World” and “Starlight”. I think he should bump the Medley to the middle and move “Starlight” to the end.

When he [Danny] left, the crowd went nuts in happiness obviously. Then a HUGEEE light show came on and everyone knew sex was about to come erupting onto the stage. Then Adam fiercely struts in and I lose my stupid composure and I go wild. I was all AADDDDAMMMMM I FREAKINGGG LOOVEEEE YOUUUUUU. You couldn’t even hear the music. The crowd was like, drowning it out. It was SO amazing. The smell of horny women and gay men was in the air! Then the unbelievable happened. The sexy whore walks up RIGHT in front of me, starts THRUSTING his hips and I almost pass out. My hormones are going wild, I’m delusional, and my body was screaming to be on top of his. After his does some AMAAAZZZINGG crotch grabs, the lights go out and a chair comes out and we knew Mad World was coming. The crowd goes even WILDER. His voice is SOOOO STUNNINNNGGG in real life. I didn’t even really listen to it though. I just kept yelling and yelling. LAST BUT NOT LEAST, he walks up to me AGAIN, makes EYE CONTACT with me, and SNARLS. I flatlined for a good 5 seconds.
Then STARLIGHT was on and he was magically and gracefully moving around the stage like a sexy little bunny. I was totally salivating. Then SLOWW RIDEEE. Him and Allison were amaaaazing. He gave her the cutest little intro! So when that was all done and over, the Bowie medley came on.
When he took of his jacket…I lost EVERY LAST SHRED of dignity I had. I was just, THROWING myself at the barricade SCREAMING his name, SCREAMING “TAKE YOUR PANTS OFF TOO!!!!!!!!” I can’t even remember what happened next. My brain was swimming around in thoughts of sex. When he finishes, he thanks the crowd and goes off.
Then…Kris comes out. Yay…. I actually sat down and started tweeting. Sorry baby but even my dog howls better than you sing sometimes. Sigh. Boring boring boring.
Then DON’T STOP BELIEVING. It was so amazing. Adam and that winner comes out and the crowd goes nuts again. Then, ADAM instead of Kris goes to thank the crowd, ENDS the song and is the only one stepping out of line LOL. Ok Kris, you may have the title but it’s clear who really won.
So afterwards, I got stuck there and everyone was running outside. So we waited for a good hour and Adam is the first to come out and there were only like…a few hundred people waiting but it was SO loud. b**** looks so gorgeous. So when he comes near me, I nearly get squished and I throw myself at him and almost poked him in the face with my magazine and he signs it, and I scream. So I get everyone else’s autograph and the most magical thing happens.
I’m standing there after Adam went back in and this lady screams ADAM!!!!!!! And I’m like WHERE WHERE and she grabs me and she’s like ADAM WHY ARE YOU STILL OUT HERE. So I’m like ….I’m…not…Adam K and she told me she thought I was. So clearly, I am beyond flabbergasted and flattered and I told her she made my night.
Then I proceeded to go home and bragged all the way about my Adam encounters J Yay!

So not only did I gain a ticket but V and I have emailed back and forth and we were thrilled and excited
to finally meet up and then to add to all my excitement I got to see this energetic spitfire witty poster named feetchick show up in my kitchen and upon talking around the table we realized we both lived near one another and we were both going to the concert.
Since that moment feetchick is now just FEET she is the person you want to share the Adam stuff with, she is the one you hope will burst open the door and get the room on high alert about all things Adam and she was the one I was lucky enough to be standing outside waiting for Adam to come with.
After Sarver went inside I was getting anxious because I didnt want V to miss Adam and she had been so generous to me I wanted her to be with us. Well low and behold an hour before she was expected to arrive my phone rings, and it is her and she says I’m here, Im like the ferry just got in, and she say NO I am here standing in a crowd of people where there is 2 semi trucks. Sure enough upon looking to my right there is my seat mate standing there talking on her phone. So now the ring is complete, we can relax and enjoy and await seeing Adam.
After standing there for hours it was decided that we must hurry back and get ready, and I am talking about an hour to change and arrive back and seated. So just before we are about to leave moutain whisper shows up and we have added another friend into our mix.
Flat iron flying, black everywhere, no time to paint nails, throw glitter in everyones hair and we are off like cheetah’s moving in for our kill. We can feel our heart pumping as we get out into the air in 10 minutes we will be walking up to the gates and be readying ourselves for the performance of a lifetime. Feet and her niece leave with glowsticks in hand to try and grab food. V and I opt for arena food, so that we can get onto the floor before it starts.
We settle in and look at each other going this is it are you sooo excited, oh my goodness its going to take so long. But alas we have seen the bottom 6, and we know when the lights go up for intermission that we have almost embarking on the journey we have waited months for.
Allison opens and makes us realize that there is someone out there that can perform and move an audience. She leaves us wanting more, she is the rock star in the making, she is been sprinkled with the magical star dust that only ONE can possess.
The one who shall remain unnamed takes what feels like an hour, honestly I didn’t think it will ever stop you can see the ever growing anxiety in the crowd. After one final attempt to move his audience he vanishes into the dark.
The huge screen flashes the numbers for the countdown that the whole audience has been waiting for.
My arms had goosebumps, there was a lump in my throat, as I realized this is no longer idol
he is not coming on to my TV set or monitor as each number leads me closer to seeing him. Each flash of his picture reminding us all that we are about to witness a ROCK STAR. We are on our feet, i have left to try and get video from another angle everyone is trying to sneak up with me. The grandmas that we had been giving glow sticks to during intermission are standing up on their seats just to catch a glimpse, they have seen Elvis and The Beatles but yet their daughters are so quick to share “I have never seen my mom like this in my life, they tell us they are in their 70s, and look at them. Oh with age we become wise and we know you have to capture the moment, so with glitter in their hair and glowsticks waving in the air standing proudly shouting ADAM’s name from atop their seats he arrives.
We know that song, we have listened to it thousands of times over and over and watched that video squeezing every bit of love from it. We know all the places where the snarl should be but yet when his voice radiates around the arena this is not my tv and this is no longer idol. This is a superstar and I am hearing his voice radiate throughout all of Vancouver, each time he sings WLL his head sassing back to see that he is the bad boy behind the song. He really is every thing you have dreamed of and hoped for. He is commanding the stage from his first note showing you his body and everything he can do with it, strutting in that beautiful jacket that he has talked so proudly of his voice could not be more crystal like a rare diamond. We are knowing that we are getting closer we know that just the other night he sang WOMAN, which one has he saved for Vancouver will we get Baby or Woman. He is not going to just answer your question though he is going to make you work for it. His face grows coy and he puts that little finger up and starts edging you near, he puts his finger to his ear and he waits patiently for the roar and thunder of the crowd aching for what is to come and finally it is soooo much more then we could have expected. It is so visual…with mic stand firmly thrust in between his crotch and his hand running up and down carressing it like every woman and man wants to be carressed by him and his beauty he slowly gives you all wait you have waited for BABY YOU NEED…….A whole lotta LOVE. Everyone needs to grab onto the back of the chair in front of them they are mesmorized and satisfied that what we have waited so long for was now so much greater then anything we could have expected.
He stomps around the stage and shows you over and over that he is the reason you voted every week, you can openly see how much he enjoys entertaining you. Every detail has been scrutinized and planned, he is there to entertain you and take you on a journey that will hopefully last until his solo concert. His voice never leaves its raw beauty all while he plays with you encouraging everyone to loosen up and have fun. Live your life with meaning and passion, there is no room here in this arena for reservations.
STARLIGHT is about to start with all of your expectations filtering around the room
As he opens his vocals are so beautiful and realize that you have watched him for 6 months and you believe that you know his voice and his capabilities and talent. But alas as we have come to always know about Adam we should never put boundaries on someone so Talented. Adam is the chameleon with his clothes, his music, his hair, his style. The only thing we have ever seen that stays the same is the person behind the syle and music. The vocals are so gorgeous and alluring and haunting. You question his voice, staring could it really be him singing? His voice is eerie, and mystical and you can feel his passion and connection to the song floating above you. He takes you into his web, as he has done many times before leading you to the chorus. As you stare at him still standing and waving your arms in the air he is proving to you that infact his unique talent and vocals are so unique that you begin to tingle down your spine and go breathless as his falsetto brings you passionately and satisfied to the end of starlight.
He interacts more with us, telling us how he loves us all and always thanking his fans. He introduces Allison and calls her back out, always the eye of fashion he makes sure the audience appreciates her new wardrobe change.
It is now his time to change his persona, from the centre of the attention to sharing the stage. He becomes playful with the audience enjoying the energy of our admiration and joy and enjoying singing his duet with Allison. For every awesome and extraordinary note that he sings for us, is matched with humbleness and generosity and it is never more apparent then him sharing the stage with Allison. When he rolls those hips during “roll all night” the audience is in collective awe and feel like we have just seen something so sinfully delightful the red bra arrives on stage. Allison never missing the beat tosses it with her sassy black boots his way he bends down and as if it was a planned prop times his overhead swinging perfectly with the lyrics of the song before tossing it back to the audience in which it came. Every moment on stage is spent engaging the audience bringing you into his world. His body is never still, he is entertaining you with his eye candy and movements some subtle and some just plain sexy. The fire and smoke end the wonderful slow journey we have been allowed to witness between Allison and Adam.
Mad World the song we heard over and over and the Bowie Medley.
The audience sees the chair and knows what they are about to expect, they know that he is going to give us the same song that we have grown so comfortable with. He looks out with the hauntingly blue lighting and puts out that beautiful hand welcoming you into his world and starts to sing. The audience that had just relaxed a minute ago are suddenly straightening themselves out a bit more they perk up standing on tip toes trying to see him and catch a glimpse because although we know this song has been sung so many times before we once again denied putting expectation on our Adam. The beat is faster the vocals are a little less eery and a little more passionate and strong. It is a noticable difference, and you can hear the judges in your head make the song your own. But how does one make their own song their own and put a new twist on a classic. Well when you are Adam anything is obtainable for his audience. The visuals of the screens around the arena are beautiful and you soak in your time with him in his mad world watching him on the full length teletron is spectacular, the audience is swaying back and forth feeling the song deep within their souls, just as he shows us his very soul every time he sings.
Finally, the air in the arena changes people are restless because you realize that with all of the excitement the time has all too quickly flown by and it is now time for him to embark on his final song. He stands in the middle of the stage channeling his inner Bowie, a man who has been an idol of his for so long. As the music starts to play and his voice grows stronger, his foot begins to tap to the music. Making you comfortable and at peace until the moment that his voice rises higher and higher until you are screaming, it fills the entire arena with no place left untouched until you think you can’t take it anymore. It is the time, the time that he strips that gorgeous jacket and rips it from his body, throwing it with a thrust of the wrist. We watch it land ever so gently, like the prized possession it really is. As the audience stares in amazement, you are seeing that the infamous black tank top you have come to adore has been covered with a sexy sparkly vest. His hips begin to roll and he sings Fame. When he puts his arms out to his sides, opening himself up vulnerable, you see him THE SUPERSTAR, the performer, the musician. The veil of idol has been removed and he is no longer needing to be the PG13 performer that has to keep a close eye on his left hand and unforgiving hips. There is little doubt now, a few exchange looks we know from reading the boards that there is no way that he DOES NOT. Everything that we thurst for from the leather pants, to the thrusting sexual hips, and grabbing that mic stand amongst other things and showing us that he is so much more then we had ever written about or talked about. He is toying with us, swinging those beautiful bare arms in the air, pumping them up as Lets Dance begins to play. The crowd is now on overload we are sweaty and hot and tired and moved. We have been taken on a journey of our emotions and feelings, some sexual, some passionate and some private. We are all turned on to the glittery dark lord, it is SO HOT in that stadium, until the seen we have all tried so hard to forget, the spaceship has landed and the door has opened and our glittery alien must return to his castle. He yells a final I love you Vancouver, reminding us that his voice, his music, and his soul will never be lost on his audience. We will take his charm and his confidence and his sass, and his unforgiving sexuality with us to carry with us in our own hearts, as he has shared his with us.
Well it is 1:30am just got in the door
What an amazing Night.
After waiting all those hours for him today after the show he was first out. When he came out people started to scream (picture Elvis) where people would be practically passing out.

I now understand why professional media have a hard time interviewing him both men and women because he is so ICONIC it is not like anyone on the planet. There will never be another Adam he is the most unique and mystifying and soulful person I have ever seen. You could be Madonna or Bowie or president, but he makes you step back and stops you dead in your tracks in awe. He truly makes you gasp, without realizing you are doing it.
HE slowly got through the crowd to the farthest end, and he stood and smiled and said thank you to every single person. He spent so much time with each step he took trying to be there for everyone. There was not one place where he didnt speak, smile, laugh or wink at everyone. If you ever hear he is a DIVA people are lying. He was soo patient, and so REAL after seeing the cast of clowns this afternoon with their egos and personas (less Scott) he has none of this he is so accessible and genuine and sincere and you know you are talking to the “real Adam” unlike the others where you are getting “entertainment” while they work the crowd and are not sincere, nice yes but now the real them.
