The Tour Has Begun:

So the tour has begun and we're to the 5th show. Portland, Tacoma, Vancouver and Sacramento are all now done. Tonight it's Oakland. Videos are all over YouTube and the reviews have been overwhelmingly positive for Adam. He's clearly the star of the show. And he's clearly moving beyond Idol. His set is more provocative (sometimes far more) than he could have ever done on TV, even though it was Fox. It's good to see more of the real Adam now that he is more free to be himself. It's also good to see all the recent "hoopla" concerning his being gay, the HiFi scandal and such have not hurt him in any discernible way with his fans. Now that Adam's getting to do meet and greets and signings with fans I'm sure he must be starting to realize how powerful he is at moving people. His life will never be the same. I'm looking forward to watching his career develop.
