I'm a fan because of Adam's undeniable talent. His range and interpretations of music are incredible, just what I want to hear, and to see. I grew up in the era of Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, Queen, Rocky Horror, and many other legends of the 70s. I see that Adam also loves these, too. That's the common thread for me. And I love musical theater. To see a performer emerge with Adam's level of talent, bringing forth all I love about music and performances in one artist, that's a very rare gift. I am probably around the same age as Adam's parents so the feeling Adam invokes in me is pride. I'm truly just so proud of him, which also creates joy. Many of his performances bring tears to my eyes. I am so excited about what is to come for Adam and for all of us. The more I see of Adam, the more I respect him as a man, a businessman, an artist, and a performer. He is handling his new fame beautifully and I do see him as role model, not only for young people who may be like him but, in many ways, for all of us. Adam is a class act and deserves every happiness and the success of his dreams. I wish him and his family and friends all the best.
