From TimesUnion:

When it comes to pop music, popularity is all important. One way we measure that is by the number of comments a popular music review generates from readers like you. In the past, we had readers commenting on concerts at the You Review blog, but in August, we ported that blog and put music reviews (and other reviews) in this blog — the Arts Talk blog — to consolidate our arts coverage in one location. So some of the links below will take you to the You Review blog, while others will send you to posts within the Arts Talk blog. And now, the top 10 Capital Region concerts of 2010 based on the number of reader comments


10. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at SPAC, Aug. 27, 2010

9. The Allman Brothers Band @ The Palace Theatre

8. John Mayer @ SPAC 8/8/10

7. Diana Ross at the Palace Theatre, 9/15/10

6. Phish at SPAC 6/20/10

5. Bon Jovi at SPAC 7/11/10

4. American Idol Live @ Times Union Center, 7/17/10

3. NEIL YOUNG @ THE PALACE THEATRE, 5/18/10

2. Billy Joel and Elton John @ Times Union Center, 3/11/10

1. Adam Lambert @ the Palace Theatre, 8/23/10

Adam's glamnation tour was so unique in comparison to the regular concert. I went to a number of great concerts this summer, but none compare to the Glamnation concert. Adam was mesmerizeing. It was a show. I saw 3 of his concerts. I have never done that before. Not in one season. He is just so addictive it is almost scary. I can not wait for what is next.

Congratulations to Adam's very successful GNT! There is no doubt in my mind that Adam has attracted various groups of people who has great taste in music no matter how diverse it may be. Another common denominator among us could probably be our penchant for things that are beautiful. Adam is soooo attractive and his beauty shines from within. Furthermore his intelligence makes him ultra sexy. I'm mot surprised anymore with all kinds of recognitions he is getting lately.

I also believe that Adam is most deserving as the Greggy Music Star of the Year considering his huge accomplishments this 2010 and how he has worked so hard on his projects. Thanks for the link @daydreamin and it thrills me to know that you will have more time for 24/7 during your break teehee ;-) Happy holidays to you and your family!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO THE 24/7 ADMIN AND TO ALL THE POSTERS!

this is what STEVE BARNES wrote when he reviewed Adam's concert at the Palace Theatre...
My answer is " I want, with all my heart ! Edgy with a smile, as Adam says it"

I am so happy he is getting all those recognitions at the year end and have his music in my lifetime. Better double buckle my seat belt to ride with him on his next tour.

12:22 I totally am with you. I attended 3 concerts as well and it was not enough. Yes he is addictive and I can't wait for the next tour. Guess I will probably go to as many concerts as I possibly can. An added benefit to each concert are the fabulous people you meet and the friends you make. It is a fun party every time with Adam as the host.

I was at the Palace theater in Albany and Adam was amazing. It was my second concert after Wilkes-Barre and I would have seen all of them if I had the money. I wrote a short review about his concert at the Palace and it was published online on their website. I am sure many others did, too, and that is why he won.

OT,
only 56 mins till christmas day, so I in case I don't get to visit here tomorrow, I would just like to wish all my 24/7 'friends' a Wonderful Christmas. Hope you all have a great day whatever you're doing.

And congratulations to Adam on all his awards and end of year 'Best of' lists that he is making. He so deserves everything, and more.

Adam is the consummate performer and that is why his concerts were so special. Congrats to him for getting the recognition he deserves..I went to 6 of his Glam Nation concerts between July and Dec., beginning with Seattle and ending with the final two in LA, and I absolutely never tired of seeing him on stage and listening to his unbelievable voice live. I would guess there are few who can match his ability to deliver a pitch perfect performance of each song, each time, including singing through a cold, day after day, often with no time off in between..and each time was special and different in some way. I can also proudly say that my husband enjoyed 3 of those shows with me (plus one other..Fantasy Springs.), once from the front row, and he was just as thrilled to see Adam live as I was! So happy we were able to share that time together! I can hardly wait to see what Adam brings to us next time, once his new album comes out and he puts together a new tour...but for now, memories of Glam Nation will have to do! Looking forward to that professionally produced DVD that RCA keeps talking about! Its gotta be a whole lot better than my wobbly self-produced vids where the camera kept drifting off into space or down to his feet, because I was distracted watching him...(no kidding!!) Now...on to that Grammy!!!

And OT (again)..Christmas and Holiday wishes to all of the 24/7 peeps! And thank you to 24/7 Admins as well!

No doubt Adam's GNT should be on #1 spot cuz there is nothing out there like it or like Adam‼ Adam's show is all the audiences could ever wish for, very entertaining in every way, to every senses of of your body & being. Great to hear/listen to, great to watch/see, makes you happy, excited & can be emotional, dance your ass off & you even get sex education to boot... lol Simply can't get enough of Adam & his show‼ :)

Merry Christmas to all you 24/7 regulars and admin!

Glitzylady, it makes me so happy to think of your husband enjoying Adam's concert as much as you did! Whoo-Hoo! Thank you for telling us!

Here's the entire "Diplomacy is not really my forte" interview in Paris.

Ditto to all the good wishes for every fan of Adams and those that are not but might become if they give this man a chance. Thank you all for your posts.

Not only has Adam made us want to listen to music again,but he has made us want to be entertained. And he does that like no other. The GNT was a tour de force, without exception. Adam should be winning awards as entertainer of the year everywhere. My opinion may be a little eggnogged slanted as I just got home from a very lovely Christmas Eve party. Happy Holidays!!!
