Well now we know the residency value to the casino. Total $7,454,170.00 46,868 tickets sold/ 48,600 seats available =1732 not sold
(av price per seat=159.00)Hmmm...does someone know how to read the ticket results. Appreciate some help wrapping my head around it. Why are the numbers I bolded in black showing such a different number of maximum seats, for the 19-22 ( 14,472) concerts and the 5-8 ( 14,621) concerts. Are they discounting the free complimentary seats???? Did they reduce seating for the last three concerts? (just my curiosity!!) Also what does the 3 bolded in pink mean in front of the $1,000. The other lines show a 0 (zero) The number of "maximum seats" is the number of tickets that were available for sale. In Las Vegas, many ticket are never sold, they are comped. So the gross ticket revenue in Vegas is only part of the story about what an artist receives.
The opening concerts have more press, VIP, and comp seats. These do not count as available seats or sold tickets.
3 / 3 = three concerts, three sold out.

My take is Adam can never please everyone with what he is doing. Some prefer rock Adam/Queen Adam. Musical theater. Dance pop. Pop/rock. I love rock Adam or Queen Adam. Would enjoy his musical theater but would not want to see a whole career or concentration of it. Enjoyed the pop dance earlier but have grown tired of anything with dancers pretty much (from anyone). Love his pop/rock. So for me, glamrock/altrock/pop-rock would be ideal. And he slays a ballad. But will be there for whatever Adam puts out. He does it all so well so I will be a fan with whatever he delivers.

Most of those speaking up in defense of more QAL are already huge chip fans. OK, dropping the analogy - it seems to me that the majority of you listen to every possible livestream, watch the Instagrams on repeat, spend hours on the videos, attend as many concerts as time and finances allow. Nothing wrong with any of that, and I'm not implying for a minute that there is. But stop and think of how you'd feel if Adam were devoting that kind of time and creative energy to another band whose music you don't enjoy - music that, for the record, is not, and will never be, his, no matter how well he performs it. Would you still be as wholeheartedly thrilled, even if Adam were making money hand over fist and playing stadiums? If so, I'd tip my hat to you if I wore one. There's really no way to say this without sounding like a terrible person, but here it goes - I stan artists because they do work that I enjoy, and that speaks to me in a very special way, not because their work makes them happy. I'm guessing most artists do work that makes them happy, and I'm happy for them if that's the case, but that isn't reason enough for me to stan them. For those who are disappointed at the prospect of more QAL, it seems to me that QAL just doesn't connect with them, for whatever reason, and accordingly they aren't happy about more of it. I don't get why that's so hard to understand. It has nothing to do with Adam, or what's best for Adam, or how much fun Adam is having - it has to do with them, and what makes them happy, and for most fans, that's par for the course. Fandom for most is not a selfless activity, and there's no particular reason it has to be, as long as they aren't abusive to the artist for not complying with their wishes. Totally agree with you here. If I had to listen to more Elvis songs, I'd be outta fandom in a flash. I don't get it, I'll never get it and it's just not something I'd stick around for. I don't listen or watch many QAL videos either, didn't go to Vegas. But I totally understand why he tries to balance the two parts to his career.

Because I love musical theater I'd love to see him in a Broadway show as the lead. I grew up in the 80s and was an MTV junkie when pop was the best kind of music IMO but today, it's just not my thing for the most part except for Gaga. But regardless, only Adam knows what is best for Adam and not any of us and that's how it should be.

Plus, if he's going to buy tee shirts that cost almost $1,500.00 there better be a lot more QAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Adam started his music career on American Idol. A very contemporary pop driven show. He started his career with FYE. A very modern, top 40 driven album. While I understand some would like to see Adan do more theatre and classical stuff. Being a classically trained vocalist. I just don’t see him doing that. He’s not a classical artist. He’s a rare as you get in the modern age and in pop culture. A modern artist with an old rock soul. I expect his album commercially to still be Driven by too 40. That’s the music Adam likes. But he has also said he has been influenced by his work with Queen. And all the current events. So we may get something more real and authentic. More instrumental he said too.
Besides I’m struggling to see how he can’t do Queen and release a new album. And dedicate his fullest to both. I recall in 2015 he released TOH. He joined the RHPS. And went on tour with Queen. Now I’ll admit if he ended his collobaration with Queen. I would be ready to say goodbye. Creatively I don’t think theirs much you can do at this juncture. But the collobaration imo is unprecedented. And we can’t underestimate its momentum. And the privilege Adam has. Of course it’s ublikeky he would be doing arena shows with his own stuff. And hey if he can cooperate his solo stuff great too. I signed up to Adam Lambert in 2009. And I have no intention of leaving. Queen, solo, dancer, actor. I want it all!
