Script For Glitter and Photo Text & Links:Adam Lambert Bio - Upright Cabaret
Adam Lambert recently appeared at the Pantages Theatre in the LA Company of Wicked understudying "Fiyero" and appearing in the ensemble. Adam's breakthrough theatre performance was as Joshua in The Ten Commandments at the Kodak Theatre in 2004 opposite Val Kilmer. His tour de force performance became a press and crowd favorite with the New York Times calling him "the most consistent crowd-wower" and the LA Times stating that his "personal sound and style… (was) the best." After The Ten Commandments, Adam was cast to understudy "Fiyero" in the 1st National Broadway Tour of Wicked. Musical Theatre credits include, Hair (European Tour '03), 110 in the Shade (Pasadena Playhouse), On the 20th Century (Reprise!), Evita (Civic Light Opera of South Bay Cities), Grease, Chess (Moonlight Ampitheatre). In addition to theatre work, Adam has also ventured into the Hollywood music scene. He has been collaborating with Composer/Guitarist Monte Pittman (Madonna) for close to three years. Together they've formed an alt/pop/rock/electro band called THE CITIZEN VEIN. They are currently working with Producer Malcolm Welsfords and A&R Worldwide to record an album. Adam has performed at the Henry Fonda Music Box in the glam-rock revue the "The Zodiac Show", the Key Club and in "Club Makeup's Halloween Show". He is currently on the prowl for additional producers and musical collaborators. Please visit myspace.com/adamlambertmusic for original material.

www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=6385"Crazy" Music And Lyrics By Gnarls Barkley (Danger Mouse And Cee-Lo) Songfacts: This song is about losing your mind and diving into insanity, which the singer finds is not all bad. Going along with the theme of the song, the music video is done in the style of the Rorschach test, which is a psychiatric evaluation where the patient is asked what he sees in various inkblot patterns. It was directed by Robert Hales, who used an ink theme in the video for Jet's "Are You Gonna Be My Girl." Gnarls Barkley is producer Danger Mouse (Brian Burton) and vocalist Cee-Lo Green (Thomas Callaway). Danger Mouse produced The Gorillaz album Demon Days; Cee-Lo was in Goodie Mob. The name "Gnarls Barkley" is a play on "Charles Barkley," who is a Hall Of Fame basketball player and an outspoken commentator. The moniker came up in a conversation between Danger Mouse and some of his friends when they were throwing out weird ideas for band names. In a 2006 interview with The New York Times, Danger Mouse said: "I brought in a song that I felt was a complete Ennio Morricone ripoff, (Morricone is a composer of spaghetti-western scores) but Cee-Lo and I started talking, and I somehow got off on this tangent about how people won't take an artist seriously unless they're insane. And we were saying that if we really wanted this album to work, the best move would be to just kill ourselves. That's how audiences think; it's retarded. So we started jokingly discussing ways in which we could make people think we were crazy. We talked about this for hours, and then I went home. But while I was away, Cee-Lo took that conversation and made it into 'Crazy,' which we recorded in one take. That's the whole story. The lyrics are his interpretation of that conversation." This song was leaked on the Internet and became a very popular download when it was released in England, sending it to #1 on the UK charts. In 2006, Danger Mouse told The Observer Music Monthly, "I did the initial backing track when I was in Iceland on holiday a couple of years ago. We put it on in the morning and by the time we left the studio that evening we had the whole song done." Cee-Lo Green added, "I thought 'Crazy' might be the song that Danger Mouse would write if he wrote songs. He played the instrumental track for me and I was just, 'Wow!' We put the track on repeat while we talked for 2 hours about sanity and its place in pop culture and the creative process., how it's associated with true artistry." This was the best selling single of 2006 in the UK, where it spent 9 weeks at #1. At the end of 2007, it was the most downloaded song ever in the UK. (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England, for above 2) This was chosen by a panel of experts including Yoko Ono, Lil Wayne, Lars Ulrich plus critics and industry insiders as Rolling Stone's #1 song of the 2000s. Cee-Lo Green explained to Mojo December 2010 why he believes this song proved to be so popular: "It rang true to a lot of my peers and fellow artists. Because the song was about insisting upon doing things my way, and the thin line between being crazy and being convinced that you're right." songfacts.com www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=6385February 21-22, 2008 2008-02-21, 22 Upright Cabaret Viceroy Essell Wallpaper Life upon the Wicked stage is not easy.
