I admire Adam so much for speaking out on these issues. For a long time, we have seen that he has a wide variety of friends of various races, ethnicities and sexual orientations. I assume he's had conversations about human rights with his friends.
I especially like pattihum's clarification of Black Lives Matter. I have tried to explain what it really means to a few people over the years and some of them still don't get it. Saying "Black Lives Matter, TOO" makes all the difference. It shows that "black lives" have historically NOT been equal to "white lives" in American society, and still aren't. Just saying "All Lives Matter" dilutes the ongoing severity of racial injustice in this country for the past 400 years.
Good for Adam for speaking out!

I also join those who are proud of Adam for speaking up. He has never shied away from speaking about some important issues. You don't need to have an African American friend to know that it was an unjustified killing of another human being. You need to have a heart and some feeling tho. And it has happened too often. And yes Black Lives Matter and people are fed up. But they should be able to protest without people who don't care coming in to takeover and create havoc. And it does not help to have someone at the top who thinks it is fun time now and a good time to point selective fingers and threats. Ugh!!

I did not get an email confirmation for my refund request. However, in my account, if I click on "My Tickets" it takes me to "My Events" where it shows my upcoming events. If I click on "see details" it takes me to a page that says: "Your Order Has Been Updated If you've submitted a request, we'll be reviewing it as soon as possible and will reach out with any updates along the way." When a Bon Jovi concert I had tickets for was cancelled and I was notified that a refund would be coming, the same message appeared regarding the Bon Jovi show. I did receive that refund, but the only way I knew that it had arrived was by checking my credit card information regularly. peace&love Thanks nonotme...that is the same as what I get on my page. I will just be patient and wait.

To Adams latest post, i left this comment: of course all lives matter duh should be clear but black lives have been SO disproportionally affected in a very negativ way in so many areas of live and black lives matter simply acknowledges that fact. ...also WHAT the actual FUCK! 😳😳😳 youtu.be/ftLzQefpBvMUnfortunately WTF seems to have become a state of mind and not a sporadic outburst of emotions from time to time

LA is being hit very hard by the protesters, and many of the stores in The Grove have been looted by the bad actors. I just have this wonderful memory of shopping there with some special Glamberts that beautiful summer day when we all gathered for Adam shows at the Orpheum. It just makes me so sad.
