t.co/JwDJRXNEOrDidn't know how to bring this over but it is a link to the Digital Journal's review of Adam's Believe performance. Music to my ears! Thanks for bringing it over, gypsyladee! "Lambert sang an orchestral ballad version of her signature dance-pop tune "Believe". Lambert's vocals were resonant, dynamic and pristine. He had great control over his voice throughout the entire performance..." "Overall, Adam Lambert delivered a stunning musical tribute to Cher ... it is a masterclass of how a proper tribute should be done" Best review ever! Here is the whole thing: Digital Journal Review: Adam Lambert spectacular at Cher tribute at Kennedy Center Honors BY MARKOS PAPADATOS 8 HOURS AGO IN MUSIC Washington - On December 2, Grammy-nominated pop sensation Adam Lambert honored global music star Cher at the 2018 Kennedy Center Honors. Lambert sang an orchestral ballad version of her signature dance-pop tune "Believe". Lambert's vocals were resonant, dynamic and pristine. He had great control over his voice throughout the entire performance, and he connected with the song on an emotional event. It was well-received by the audience and it earned him a standing ovation. Ironically enough, "Believe" was one of the songs that Lambert performed during his tenure on the eighth season of the reality singing competition, American Idol, which helped propel him to stardom, and it is neat to things come full circle. Following "Believe," veteran pop star Cyndi Lauper joined Lambert on stage for a remarkable duet of the Sonny & Cher classic "I Got You Babe." This marvelous rendition would have made the song's late songwriter, Sonny Bono, proud. The Verdict Overall, Adam Lambert delivered a stunning musical tribute to Cher at the Kennedy Center Honors in our nation's capital. He soared on Cher's international chart-topping hit "Believe," where he made it his own, and equally infectious was "I Got You Babe" with Cyndi Lauper. Lambert's musical performance at the Kennedy Center Honors earned an A rating, and it is a masterclass of how a proper tribute should be done, especially for somebody as iconic as Cher.

I see there are some seat maps being posted finally. I am getting tickets for Tacoma tomorrow and am stressing about the layout. If anyone finds one please post it or let me know where to find it, I will do the same if I find one first. I have checked TM and the Tacoma Dome site but nothing yet. The main thing I want to know is which end the stage will be because I have been there many times but where we sit will depend on which end they set the stage.

The seat maps for my shows aren't up either. My main concern is if the interactive map isn't up at first....like generally happens....you aren't for sure how the seats for each row are numbered. Some number from the thrust out and others opposite and a few number all the way across the whole floor. Can make a huge difference and put you way to the outside when you think you might be close to the thrust. We ran into this in Nashville last year with the high numbered seats being much better on Brian's side than seat number one....which was way wide.

Question...is that Digital review a fan post? It doesn't sound like a professional review, more like a fan gushing....why would they talk only about Adam?
Just curious....I've seen the name Digital Review before, but couldn't remember what it was.

I understand the thrust /row is an unknown, but the seat numbering does not change from show to show, so just go to any TM active event at your venues and look at the way they are numbered... or mapaplan.com for instance
