Hi, I'm still desperately trying to sell my ticket in case anyone is still thinking of going. It's in Section 302, Row H Seat 3. I'm only asking for $35, even though I paid $55.75 for it. I really hope someone wants it!!

I had one of the worst days I can remember yesterday, thanks Delta. You and your "policies". Just missed the "God Hates Fags" people outside (probably a good thing considering my condition right now). So I'm taking it all out on you tonight, Kansas City...

Aren't these horrible people one small group of crazies who travel around the country spreading hate at soldiers' funerals and stuff? I really hope Adam and the gang don't think this hate comes from multiple protesters in multiple cities. D: D:

...OMG LOL. I'm not sure whether it was Westboro or another batshit church that protested Fanime 2008, but it ended badly for them and awesomely for the anime fans/the world. I can only imagine what will happen at ComicCon.

On topic: The WBC's very existence is mind-boggling to me. How can people possibly harbor so much hate within themselves? Adam, Monte, Sasha, Taylor... I hate that anyone has to deal with them and their creed. =(

God doesn't hate anyone. Just for the record. Includling bushels of sticks that stick out. God might slightly dislike people who put signs in their kids hands that have negative conotations.

I just got back from the concert and it was AMAZING!!!

I didn't see the protesters because they weren't there when we got let in around 7. And in response to Sasha's tweet, there are a number of gay clubs in the area.

I was shocked by how many guys were there. I'd say it was easily 30% guys, probably more, up where I was standing and there were a ton of couples. There were groups of 6-7 pretty decent looking guys scattered throughout the front. There were two adorable teenage guys near us, one of whom was wearing a wig made to look like Adam's emo hair.

I was probably 15 feet from the stage and I have to say Adam is more gorgeous in person than you can imagine. And his voice is insane. I saw him on the idol tour last year and he somehow sounded 10x better tonight.

Very little Tommy interaction, but Monte went insane with crowd. During his solo on Music Again (I think) he was on his knees leaning over into the crowd and one girl's camera. THen he was on his stomach on the stage and a security guy came out and Monte dissappeared for a little bit and came back on the other side of the stage. I don't know if he jumped off the stage and then climbed back on the other side or what. Does that happen at other concerts? I haven't watched many videos of other shows.

The venue didn't care about cameras and at least 20 people in front of me were recording so there should be good video.

Anyone who can make it to the show should really go. It looks good on video, but it's unbelievable in person.

I'm glad so many of the audience missed the protestors. You got to see an epic Monte performance! Some of the other tweets sounded like he was off the stage and down on the floor section. And, no, that's never happened before!

Review | Adam Lambert at the Midland
http://www.kansascity.com/2010/07/16/2087561/review-adam-lambert-at-the-midland.html

By TIMOTHY FINN
The Kansas City Star

When its eulogy is writ, "American Idol" will be remembered most for a very few things: Simon Cowell; the pseudo-freaks who signed up for auditions; and a few of its champions and runners-up.

Thursday night, one of "Idols" most memorable contestants, 2009 runner-up Adam Lambert, sold out the Midland theater, a feat rarely accomplished these days, unless you're Leonard Cohen or apart of one of Johnny Dare's hard-rock bonanzas.

To give you an idea of how inaccurate the "Idol" barometer is when it comes to predicting success, Lambert lost to Kris Allen, who earlier this year was one of the opening acts for the Barenaked Ladies and Counting Crows. Lambert spins in an orbit unlike any other "Idol" winner or runner-up. Instead of third-generation grunge or watered-down R&B/soul/pop, he deals primarily in a mix of dance-pop and -rock -- the kind favored by disco divas -- and gives it all a light coating of goth.

It has helped him build a battalion of fans ages 12 to 60, which was the makeup of Thursday's crowd.

His tour is called "The Glam Nation Tour"; his diehard fans call themselves Glamberts; and his show is loaded with lots of cabaret, choreography and gender-bending costumes -- a mix of Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Culture Club and Cher.

He took the Midland stage in one of those costumes, an ensemble of fur, fringe, leather, rhinestones and a black top hat, singing the song "VooDoo." He would deliver 75 minutes of dance and music -- some of it big and loud with heavy beats, some of it soft and acoustic. It included covers of Johnny Cash ("Ring of Fire") and Led Zeppelin ("Whole Lotta Love"), proving that nerve and audacity are not two of his deficiencies.

Lambert separated himself from his "Idol" pack with his sense of campiness and his voice, which is big and beefy enough to take on Robert Plant or one of his own big-beat dance songs, like "Sure Fire Winners" or "Music Again." It's also agile enough to handle a guitar or piano ballad, like "Sleepwalker" or "Soaked."

The set list comprised more than a dozen songs, most from his "For Your Entertainment" album, now approaching 700,000 in sales in the U.S. (more than double Allen's debut). But the sights, including a laser show, and the dancing were as much an attraction as the songs.

It was all appreciated by the crowd of more than 2,500, some of whom had gathered outside the theater before lunch to assure a good spot on the floor.

Many wore tributes to him, like jewelry bearing his visage or an extra-heavy application of mascara. Even though the sound could have been a bit cleaner, most devoured it with the kind of intense enthusiasm and devotion that another "Idol" contestant generated -- Clay Aiken.

He has learned that longevity is a tricky and elusive pursuit. Lambert, too, may learn the same thing, but for now he looks like a guy who lost a battle but is winning the long-term war.

Allison Iraheta: She, too, was a 2009 "Idol" runner-up and during her brief opening set, she showed off what got her there: a voice big enough to handle Pat Benatar ("Heartbreaker") and a few of her own hard-pop songs, which evoke the sound and styles of Pink and Joan Jett.

I read Monte went into the audiences during Music Again and wanted to see it but there were no vids surfaced at that time.
Now we have one:

MUSIC AGAIN KC MIDLAND 071510 by GLAMHAPPY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Svby1KqyyI


The vid didn't catch how he went down there,though. Accidentally slid into while playing on his knees, maybe?

Won't this be highlight worthy? :D
