Ok, had to jump back on in regret for saying FU to all the doubters. The past few days I have been upset by the underlining desperation in the fandom. But I have been a doubter at times too so I am sorry. It was the adrenaline talking. I am overcome from that performance and feel something larger than life here. I guess I don't think Adam's success is ordained (that would take more spirituality and belief in fate than I have in me) but I am basically an optimist and believe in goodness in this world. I refuse to believe that the world we live in is so screwed up that it could possibly over see something so big as this.
That performance. What Adam just did. Guys, I feel I just witnessed true greatness. I cannot believe that it can be squelched by mere radio a-holes--or that if we don't throw our money into buying and tossing singles aside then he will go nowhere. I can not believe that the homophobic hate is so great that it will outshine him. And the polls mean that much? If I believe all that then I will loose all faith in this world all together.
Perhaps I am a fool. Perhaps the absurdity of this full grown adult obsessing over a star is just that--absurdity. maybe I have taken up with a bunch of crazy people like myself and that has fulled my insanity. I have certainly suspected this before. But I am choosing to believe that there have been a handful of greats in the art world and that I am privileged enough to be witnessing the rise of one that will change society and music for generations. It looks like it may take more time than we want but as Adam says he is just getting started. I simply cannot doubt Adam's greatness. Or that greatness will prevail.
I love you all and welcome all opinions, dark and light. Thanks for them all!

I'll leave the squee to the professionals but will say Adam completely (at least in the moment) won over the scrum of hard core Queen fans I buried myself in. At the beginning they were happy but by barefoot Adam, they were seriously swooning (for big older guys with buzz cuts - well actually for 12 yr old girls too). It was a wonder to behold. I passed Neil and Eber chatting peacefully in their seats but then the pack spied them and would not be deterred - I fled. There was much much love for Mr. Lambert and very interesting to be in such a different crowd. For instance, they clap in time  - the love was running a mobius strip from stage to audience at the end. It was a lovely sight to behold. LOL is it the Queen fans that can clap in time and not the Glamberts? I know I'm offering no help when it comes time to stomp and clap to Trespassing. I've practiced and I still can't do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can not even tell you how happy I am to read that I am not the only one who is hand-clap challenged! |
