Mszue and Sandysva, I love these bands as well but in many ways you guys are confirming why Adam needs to cultivate the younger demographic. These bands are the bands that we loved in our tweens, teens, and twenties and that is why we are still going to see them in our 40s, 50s, and 60s. Being big with a younger audience does not guarantee longevity but it does open the door to touring for a very long time. My resources are not extensive (think quick Google search) but Kelly Clarkson/Nick Jonas canceled tour dates were for the remainder of the NA tour in November and December. Demi's world tour does not start until February 2016, so there is something else going on here other than Nick Jonas was suddenly available because Kelly's cancellation would not effect 2016 touring. If negotiations were indeed as far along as was stated, I can imagine there was hard feelings, certainly among the negotiators (this would not be Adam and Demi personally) who were dealing in good faith. I'd be pissed. Would I talk to TMZ, probably not. We'll see how it plays out. Just to be clear...not angry but it is really easy to be mis-attributed....I did not at any time mention older bands...I have never seen either of the bands mentioned, and Sandysva only mentioned them as an example of a format I suggested would be great. Linda, you make a cogent point except its roots are in sand....just saying... the next commenter will assume you requote us and the line of reasoning turns into good fan/bad fan, or young fan/old fan...sigh... eta...I see sandysva clarified things so it is all good...

Adam must seem like an enigma to many in the music business,he is loyal,honest upfront,is kind ,considerate,generous and most of all you can count on him in all things.." his word is as good as his bond"...it's not only his golden voice that is one of a kind It's also his character. Can Adam change the music business,doubt it,the amazing thing is the music business is not changing Adam.

I really do not like the sensational headlines these online media sources are using about this tour mess. TMZ...you sleazeball....shaking my head that anyone would quote you. I don't care how much of what they said might have any validity to it...their choice of words... trying to get the two artists to be pitted against each other...F*CK YOU CLASSLESS TMZ. ETA: This should be a time of celebration and talking about, in interviews, of the success of his TOH album, GT, ALN, and an amazingly successful QAL tour. But I'm guessing that Adam will have a butt load of questions on this Demi and him touring mess. Adam will be his classy, articulate, and pleasant self but I roll my eyes just thinking about what he'll have to answer over and over again. Hopefully the hype will stop fast.

Mszue and sandysva, my unqualified apologies to both of you. My fault for not reading more carefully. I sometimes find that I am reacting to the gist of a number of posts and then when I don't read carefully, I mis-read according to my thought and not the actual content.

It is sometimes easy, as we all know, to become defensive or mis-phrase a response or comment. There is so much room for mis-interpretation in the written word. Plus we are discussing a subject near and dear to our hearts, and a person we are passionate about.
Thank you for such a reasoned, reasonable response. And this: is something I can learn from.
Thank you.
