If they are streaming via pandora, etc., I am sure it is. What I don't know, is what happens to all those corporations, who have canned music put together for them for play in their stores, or buses or planes or whatever else may use such service providers like muzak and playnetwork and others. But we cannot influence any of that anyhow, so it probably does not matter. We can influence only sales (minimally) and streaming and talk to friends, etc. The reality is, the industry has found a way to get to more objective data. And fanbases cannot influence it quite that much anymore. Like it or not, it has become fairer. Which does not mean, that I am not going to do do my part, as best possible. The streaming numbers are so big that retail play is a drop in the bucket. You cannot legally play Pandora or other consumer streaming music services in a store. The commercial music services (and most US retailers use legal services) and licensed commercial use radio are NOT included in the Billboard charts. Billboard is only including CONSUMER STREAMING SERVICES. Wow, did not know that playing Pandora inside stores or offices, is illegal. Doubt that my hair salon or doctor's office knows either, lol. And how many hair salons are there across America? You are sitting there for an hour or so, so the music matters. And each play reaches lots of people. Pretty amazing. Talking about hair salons. There are i.e. 2000 Supercuts across the US (for people outside US, Supercuts is one of these cheap hair cutting places, mostly used by kids and by men, who want a simple haircut fast and cheap). Anyways, they just made this deal with Vintage Trouble, and so these are mutual promotional deals, where both sides hope to benefit from this. www.adweek.com/news/advertising-branding/ad-day-supercuts-139231Kind of funny, and the article recognizes that. It's definitely a bit of an awkward fit. ======= But that the actual streaming in these 2000 stores is negligible, is actually astounding, that is quite a reach. And there are tons of chains with hundreds or thousands of outlets each. But anyhow, thanks for the info.

From the Pandora help desk: Playing music in a commercial setting Due to the terms of our music licenses, the consumer version of the Pandora service (including Pandora One) cannot legally be used to play music in a commercial setting, such as retail stores, restaurants or spas. However, we have partnered with DMX to provide a legal, licensed way to use the Pandora service in the vast majority of businesses and commercial establishments.* However, this service is not for use for bowling, skating, choreographed or organized dancing (such as dancing in dance studios, ballrooms or discotheques), instructed health club classes, and aerobic or other similar forms of entertainment or physical activity or where an admission is charged. If you have specific questions about whether or not your business is eligible for a commercial version of the Pandora service, please review DMX’s terms at: www.dmx.com/pandora/terms or contact DMX at: pandora@dmx.com * This feature may not be available outside the U.S. see also: www.dmx.com/pandora/why-pandora-for-business/

Thats part of the reason why Adam struggles for airplay. That idol stigma. So any association not with idol is great. Even though it got him that start. Yes, but somebody like Daughtry, who is much less current than Adam, is out. He is tied to rock music, to college radio stations, to alternative bands, etc. There are ways out of that silo, just Adam has hopped around quite a bit genre-wise and topic wise, and so nothing has stuck, so far. But maybe, we are also thinking to insular, as fans. That is my point.

TOH is country western deep house r&b! ;-) well run on over to the stylists IG account and tell him, like some one already has done about the clothes. "The cover idea works with the 2nd pic but these clothes don't work for Adam. Maybe the 2nd rack." Seriously People!!! BBL - going to look for my sense of humor.

page not found.....I think, they could not listen to it anymore.
LOL, understandable.
Do you guys still remember donutboy? People are given one selected picture, and they jump to all kinds of conclusions.
Would it not be kind of obvious, that whatever outfit they picked, was not hanging there anymore for the picture, that they feed the fanbase? You are looking at the leftovers.
And that silver jacket does not look all that cowboy to me. One pair of boots does not a cowboy make.
