adamrocks totally with you on Adele...don't get it either, like I've stated before...not that she's bad it's just with her limited range and her ONE way of singing she's not very versatile...

I thought that perhaps Adam might have been too much like George to be a good choice too. But then I remember when he did Faith, and it was Adam doing Faith, not a GM impression. Also, Bruno's tribute was fabulous & he pretty much tried to BE Prince! IMO, It totally worked. I figured out why I disliked the Adele tribute so much. It was HER tribute to George! It wasn't a tribute for fans or for the Grammys. Her performance in a medley of several artists would have worked. Or if it had been at a special event honoring George and that song had been one of many songs. But to choose that song, which was not a big hit in the US, then arrange it so it is completely unrecognizable...... IDK, what she was thinking. And what's with the awful starts of her songs for 2 years in a row now? What is that all about?! IDGI! I think the moral of the story, for Grammy, should be that tributes should be done by multiple performers. Remember last year in the lead-up to the Bowie tribute, many people were saying she'd make it all about herself... Well, whether Adele tries to make things all about herself or she's a victim of circumstances, that's what I see happening with her! All the news today is about Adele. George Michael is an afterthought (and what about David Bowie's five awards?) That, and she is certainly developing a history of blowing it on these live performances. What are her live shows like? Whenever someone is lauded like Gaga and Adele, an artificial aura envelopes them and the world seems to grant their every wish regardless of how they perform. And these tributes invariably take on a narcissistic appearance where the honoree takes a backseat. Or am I being too negative? On a side note, did Adam tweet about Katy Perry? I may have missed it.

I can't find it now, but a bit before the Grammy there was an article about Adele and George Michael working together on writing music. I think this has a lot to do with Adele doing the GMT tribute.

Adele is no Adam Lambert but I saw her live and loved it! I loved her attitude and wit maybe more than her voice, I also love many of her songs. She was funny, real and relatable. She doesn't have Adam's moves though, so it's a more sedate show.

I actually don't care what brings him to a show like the Grammy's, a tribute, playing with Queen or plugging his own material, I just want him on my TV PERIOD!!!!!!!! Well I can agree with that!!! I would like Adam to have a late night weekly cable show. Just a chat shows where he sings every show. And it would be OK it if was 2 hours long. And, yes, Pharaoh can be the show dog. And, yes there needs to be an awesome house band. And a bar with cocktails and smoke. And a chaise-longue.

I think as fans we can be very bias. Just because Adele no Adam Lambert. Doesent mean we should diminish her success or talent. Adele is one of the best contemporary voices of our time. Adams screwed up from time to time on live tv. Amas cough. But Doesent make him less of a vocalist. Because of it.
Anyway, I wonder when Adam we'll start making real movements on A4. Hopefully real soon. Early March possibly. Album released after the Qal tour. August probably.

Thanks for any advice. Yes, but I could only pull up Garden tickets on the far side sections during the fan pre-sale and the general sale. Was able to get Terrace seats that were more centered. Terrace seats were only sold in pairs.
