New Fan...comments on last night show in Sacramento
My friend Annie emailed me today. She and her husband were "dragged" to the show by their two teenage boys. She said that both her and her husband were pleasantly surprised by all the performances of the "kids" as she called them..that everyone one of them from Michael to Kris were enjoyable. However, when Adam hit the stage, she said their mouths dropped open and stayed that way for his whole performance. Much to the chargin of their kids, Annie and her husband were up dancing and cheering. She said she cheered so hard her voice is hoarse today.
They were blown away by Adam...didn't know much about him, hadn't watched AI.
She said "he completely captivated the audience..they were all his, in awe of his vocal ability and his command of the stage" After Adam's performance she said she and her husband just looked at each other " trying to figure out what the hell had just happened." LOL, the excitement in her email was tangible.
She is busy trying to get tickets for tonight's performance for both her and her husband.
She said "Adam embodies everything that is a superstar".
She took pictures, promised to send to me, will post once received.

I posted an update on Annie and her husband about their second concert in Oakland..it's in the "Oakland Rocks" thread....She and her husband (and the couple they took with them) and all now ADAM fans...Annie is a very very excited Fangirl.
It's so much fun to watch people as they become aware of Adam. I forget sometimes because I followed AI this season (because of Adam) that there are people who have no idea who he is....yet.
I can't wait for the AI tour to finish, Adam's RCA album to be released and for him to hit the road solo. As fast as my (never watch AI) friends are becoming glamverted, I won't be pressed for people to come with me. Damn, probably can fill a whole bus.
Looking forward to the day! See you there.

I never watched the show. I thought it was kind of lame. I went to the concert because my son and daughter do watch the show and they are too young to go on their own. They both dressed in Blue and Silver and I had no idea why. It was a fairly sedate show and some of the singers were a little laughable ie the third one to the end. Then the lights went out and my kids started yelling and screaming. I asked them why since the stage was empty. Then I found out why. The one they were yelling and screaming for was Adam Lambert (the only one I know the name of-now). I have to say even this jaded old mom had a reaction to him. I actually found myself cheering and screaming right along with my kids and it was real. This guy evokes that kind of response. I just about had to restrain myself from rushing the stage. My poor kids would have a mommy in jail. If you are on the fence about going go just to see Adam Lambert he is worth it. After Adam performed we left since the kids were tired.
hope they will be posting here soon with their personal experience - that would be awesome!
Adam is truly magnetic
one tour city at a time. Thanks for sharing us your friend's story. Despite the grueling nature of the tour, Adam is really converting a lot of people with his live performances.
she was visiting me just for the weekend and I shared with her as many posts and youtubes on Adam.. she was mesmerized by his voice. [she too had never heard of Adam before]
and when it was time for her to leave (she lives interstate), she asked if she could have a copy of Adam's itunes CD so she could listen to his songs in the car. She described his voice as "hypnotizing", that reached right through to her soul!
Everyone should know by now that Adam is way too great for that silly AI title. Superstar!
I hope my friend has the same experience!
tonight for her and her husband and another couple. She is so excited (NOW she gets what I have been going on and on about
).
I love hearing these kind of stories too...Adam's appeal reaches far beyond the audience that tuned into AI. Makes me want to stand up and cheer! I believe Adam will be a world wide superstar, iconic, I get teary eyed thinking about it, he is so deserving.
I hope her friends have the same kind of reaction to Adam, sure I will hear from her tomorrow.
glamnation: thank you so much for the offer of tickets..I came back into this thread too late, Annie already had purchased. Hope you were able to sell them!
Rock On Adam!
thx for posting
I have a feeling Adam is winning over a lot of new fans with the tour.
have seen a few similar stories, there are definately a lot of people who really don't know him and while his voice is so great its really his stage performance and charisma that grab ahold of people, which is why AI was such a good platform for him but now we need to all drag more people to see him!!! there will be many converts!
Can't wait to see the reaction of my sister, who like Adam's but doesn't LOVE him like I do 9meaning she has a life and does not spend her every waking moment on these fansites and thinking of Adam).
i love reading stuff like this! it makes me so happy!
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome post! they caught Adam Fever too!
I actually got chills reading your post...so wonderful that Adam is having that effect on people who have not followed his AI journey.
It does not surprise me though; How can you not be drawn in by Adam???? He Rocks!!!
thanks for posting that! Adam will keep getting new fans every show!!
It gives me the warm and fuzzies to see new people being drawn into everything that is Adam. I'm so glad that he's gaining more and more fans as each day passes.
THAAAATS GREAT!
and once they do.......their whole world changes......and I share in their awe and excitement.
& after it did, they went from regular people to Glamberts to Groopies for wanting to go again tonite. Luv these stories!!!!
for sharing this! they really didn't know much about adam but recognized his superstar quality. i'm telling you, adam is the next elvis! people may laugh but this is exactly the way people reacted when elvis first came on the scene. i don't mean "the next elvis" in terms of comparing their talent(adam blows elvis and everyone else away with his vocal talent), i'm talking about the iconic and superstar status that elvis attained in such a short time. we all feel it! adam is a diamond in the rough, and he is going to be worlwide huge!
Thanks for posting...
I love these stories!
to hear about people that have never heard of him and that don't have any preconceived notions, falling in love with Adam's amazing talent~~~~does the heart good!
I think Adam's amazing, but it's great to have it confirmed that he must just REALLY be that that great! I can't wait to see Adam at the Prudential Aug8th in Newark, NJ.
Jersey's gonna ROCK!!!!!!!!
Glow for Adam! Yay!!!!!!
me too. me too. love converts to adamania stories
as carrmuse said, more converts to the Dark Side to come as concerts go by and album debut in nov (evil cackles)
This way, by the time the tour is over, Adam will have tons more fans!!! More album sales for sure.
E-mail back that the Adam fans are shouting WOOT in their direction.
As for me, stuck here in New Zealand, I am just so rapt when I hear of people going to the concerts. Every single one of them is going for me!
