OK I've just watched the full episode of the entertainment news from which I posted a clip ealier. They had a long segment about the concert, but kept talking about the concert and what happened before and after it on and off throughout the show. Dana - the woman who interviewed Adam and Brian in Romania and taught Brian to say "curls" in Hebrew - had a 3-hour breakfast with Brian today. They kept in touch after the interview, and just before the concert he texted her "where are you?". So she met him backstage and he reminded her they're having breakfast the next day. She suggested the place, and Brian's PA went to see it, and she approved and said if it doesn't work out she already had a backup place... complicated! During breakfast Brian got up and on all fours to try and pet a stray kitten (there's a picture). He also invited Dana and her husband to see his wife in Wicked in London, and the host mentioned that Adam used to play in the same musical.

This article seems to be saying that Adam had photos taken to decide on how to style himself for maximum impact during the show. And/or what poses to strike. If that is correct, it provides insight into the depth of Adam's preparation for every aspect of his performance. We have been discussing today how he adds visual to vocal interpretations for the songs, and I suspect that is all carefully considered and planned in advance. But, I didn't realize he went this far in designing his look for a show. He is his own producer/director as well as an actor and a vocalist. WOW! I'm not sure I believe a single word of this lol. No snaps or pics from sight seeing or the major lazer show. And don't get me started on how they'd know where he slept The Major Lazer show is probably hapenning now.

This is a question that I have that maybe someone has a thought about. How can Adam perform in front of such large audiences in the US and abroad (20K, 40K, 75k even 200K+) to such acclaim and adoration and so little of it translates into album sales or solo tour concert numbers? Yes, these are Queen songs and fans but a lot of young people are also at these concerts and people walk away in awe and mesmerized by Adam. And older people do buy albums just ask Adele. Is it the dance pop on his records or dancers incorporated into his act that keeps a lot of these folks from following and supporting him outside of Queen? Too club like for them or what? I don't expect him to do a straight up rock album but what could he do to capture some of this audience? Other than making big bucks (tho great) it seems a waste to lose this audience. There are a lot of people out there who just love him even if they first discover him thru Queen. His name and talent is out there. What could he do to attract more than a small number from these massive audiences? Love all of the great reviews they are getting! I think that a huge majority of people who adore Adam as Queens new frontman expect a different sound from his solo material, which I think is worlds away from a set of Queen hits. Apples and Oranges? There sure was a time when I hoped that album #3 would tie in with the Queen sound a bit, but that's water down the bridge haha. I for myself have come to the conclusion that Adam is a different generation and that he should feel free to pursue his own path separate from Queen. There's another response that resonated with me deeply, which I would like to repeat in my own words as I can't find the exact quote..."let's be careful to not put our own ideas of success on Adam".

Translation to the entetainment news from tonight: video! bidur.nana10.co.il/Article/?ArticleID=1209570(if there's a large ad covering everything, after 3 seconds you'll see the word דלג on the upper left corner, with an arrow, so press on it and the ad will go away) What did they do the afterwards, after they made tens of thousands of people dance, and stuck half a million others in traffic jams: First of all, to everyone who saw him like THAT on stage and asked themselves "is it possible that Queen's frontman has green hair?" – yes, and these are the pictures from the hotel in the hours before the show. Photographer Itzik Biran was asked to help Adam with photos from all angles, to choose what would look best from the audience's direction. A few hours before that, Adam still dyed his hair at a local hair dresser. And there are some really nice shots of Adam posing in that video!
