Yes, Trespassing was live acoustic and we heard only 60 seconds of it. Livestream didn't work most of the time. A lot of interruption in between. This video is only what we could barely hear. Trespassing sounded fabulous even though it was acoustic (I don't care much for acoustic. I love full music/sound productions.). Can't wait until March 20th.
Adam forgot some part of lyrics to WWFM. But he pulled it off nicely. I have seen few other main artists who have forgotten lyrics to their own song and sometimes they turn the mic. to the audience to sing along. The main thing is to be able to quickly divert to something else without audience noticing it. Adam chanted the forgotten part with his beautiful vocal range and that was cool, IMO.
Can't wait to hear studio version of Trespassing. I love the little snippet of it even though it was acoustic. Hurry March 20th!
Kevin, new music director/keyboardist/backup singer is GOOD. I think he is a great asset. Tommy has no fire nor facial expression, Isaac is improving but still lacks fire as well. I think Ashley is going to be great but really think band is too vanilla. I hope performance of up tempo numbers will show some spark. Adam is, well, perfect, but even he needs a responsive audience. Were they snoozing?
I'm confused people, what is adam doing here in this small unappreciated audience (from what I could see)? isn't this is birthday today? Why is he singing to this small crowd, where is he? I felt Adam seemed very uncomforable here, maybe I'm reading too much into this. He looked and sounded brilliant and I'm so thank-ful for this video but something seems off?
@8:27PM this was basically Adam promoting his single and album in Austria. It wasn't a concert. As it said Q-Music Snowcase (short for showcase). He was interviewed by couple of radio stations there and he performed to promote his music. As you know Adam is an international singer. Adam has completed his album and now he is promoting it by being at different radio gigs he can find. He'll do the same in Germany and then UK for the next two weeks. He will do bunch of other promotions until release of his album. There are certain procedures an artist has to go through until release of their album. Please stay tune and be supportive until March 20th.
As fans we can also do our part by requesting radio stations to play his music or purchase/gift his new single/album.
Sometimes we are too much invested flailing for Adam then we start reading into things. We get side tracked from reality.
Yes, watch the girl who tells the them to shhhhhh!!!! The Master is singing for heck sake! Ha! Should have been Australia and everyone would have been going nuts!
@9:44 Thank you for clearing that up for me I'm @8:27 makes sense now. Oh I will alway be supportive however, been a fan since day 1 on idol ,have all his music, been to 4 GNT concerts and come here everyday.LOL
OMG ADAM Oz is so darn proud of you! This is brilliance in the making! This IS ADAM!!!!! If the world doesn't put you on that Superstar pedestal now....life is over!!!!! Bloody brilliant ADAM!
I also am a fan from day one but I hope Adam still shows the fire the excitement is his songs moves like the last tour I know this was for radio but Adam & tommy all of the band are very good to watch needs to be more alive hes does not need to tone it down PLEASE.
@10:29PM With all the travel trips, interviews and performances; Adam knows how to adjust his voice so he won't wear out his vocal chords from stress of all that. Let's just stay positive and supportive of what he is doing.
ADAM's acoustic rendition of Outlaws of Love me cry. You could see this song has a deep meaning for ADAM. All of his emotions were in his Voice & on his face ... I think OOL is the most beautiful song on his album so far. LOVE the acoustic version with NO screaming in the background much better than the St. Agathe version. Is everyone in Europe so laid back? This reminded me of the VH1 UNplugged vid ADAM did. Same reaction from the crowd. THANX for posting ... really appreciate your kindness. Love 'n Light
@anon 10.29 jan 29th if you remember back to Adams FYE overseas promotional visits, for all the radio stations they were all acoustic, it didn't stop him then rocking out on his GNT..so don't worry.
I don't think Tommy is 'sleeping'. He's the lead guitarist now and obviously taking his new role very seriously. Well done, Tommy and well done to the rest of the band.
Not every audience in the world has to scream every time Adam sings. In fact, I find screaming very annoying when all I want is to hear Adam's voice, not a bunch of crazy fans screaming at him. Screamers need to show respect to Adam and to the others in the audience.
@ 10:29 PM It was an acoustic showcase for promo purposes, did you really expect him to break into dance?
All the songs sound so great here, especially OOL. Adam's voice is amazing in it and I really like this arrangement with the prominent piano. The audience is a bit blah but the plusside of it is that we can hear the songs without any annoying screaming.
In general, I wish people would stop whining and worrying about every single thing and would just enjoy this ride that has only just started.
Agree with those who say the band lacked muscle. It seems to me that they were under-rehearsed a bit, right down to Adam forgetting the words to WWFM. These showcases are partly about getting their feet wet after a long haitus.
I absolutely loved OOL and the acoustic version of BTIKM, though. Adam's focus is on his new songs and rightly so. Cannot wait to hear the rest of the new stuff.
The point where you can tell the real difference between the old and new band is FEVER. Not enough heat there. I love the PEOPLE in Adam/s current band but for SOUND my band choices would be: Monte on guitar, Zak from Korn) on keyboards, Longineu on drums and Tommy on bass.
I know this is an acoustic set but go back and look at the acoustic performances from spring 2009 promo tour and listen to the guitar....
4:49: When I look at 10:29's post there's nary a whine in sight. Since when is expressing your musical and performance preferences for Adam whining?
I was at a pretty big 30th birthday party for Adam yesterday and everyone had a ball discussing which songs/Adam they liked and why. The 19-year-old opposite me was very clear: she wants more Fever/Strut etc. No one thought it was a problem for her to say the tamed down Adam is not her favourite.
Half the fun of Adam discussion is talking about which song, which genre, which outfit, which hairstyle, which hairstyle, which Adam...
I thought it sounded a little too lay back...sorry, just my opinion, I appreciate that Monte and Adam had their problems but Monte was way better at lead guitar than tommy and would have been a great asset to this performance. I loved the new song Trespassing of what I heard of it, but how frustrating to only hear bits and pieces of this new number. Adam sounded brilliant as usual but band the band is not doing him justice or perhaps because it was acoustic and I don't think all songs sound good this way and this to my way of thinking is important especially if your showcasing a new album.
Adam's new album so far sounds sensational, Adam always sounds fantastic, but because he is so good at what he does he deserves the very best when it comes to musicians to show case his voice.
Tresspassing is awesome - what I heard, anyway. I can see why they didn't put it out first, even though it's a great song. It is a very in-your-face song and I think they want Adam to enter the public consciousness on a more gentle note.
I LOVE IT. It could be a 60's protest song. No kumbaya, though. And virtuoso vocal performance. I can see why the critics really loving this song.
I love the band and Adam's voice was great! Tommy referred to Elvis 68' special Trespassing has that vibe to me. Tommy is great on twitter. He is pure joy like Adam. I would love to see Adam dye that piece of hair in the front blue. but for now(and always) he sure is HOT!
Who says Adam will be more toned down? This was an acoustic set, quieter by nature. Trespassing is full of up-tempo, kick-butt songs. We just haven't heard them yet. Just because he did a set that was quieter doesn't mean that hs whole direction is going to be quieter. Not by a long shot. And don't worry about Tommy. He knows hwo to rock it when the venue and gig-style demand it. I think he'll step up to the task just fine. I'm not going to tear anybody in the band down before we've even heard them to a full-out concert performance. It's gonna be great, people. DON'T WORRY SO MUCH! DRG
Love Tresspassing, but not a good song to debut acoustically, imho. The band is good. I just don't think they sound like they practiced the acoustic set at all. That is disappointing. That being said, I don't miss Monte at all. I like Tommy's electric guitar style much better than Monte's.
I loved the performance. However they did seem to be under-rehearsed and awkward between each song. I love the band set up (missed Ashley) but I think Tommy needs to connect more with the audience. He barely looked up. I'm sure he will loosen up on tour.
Casual. Small venue. Acoustic. Perfect. It came across as laid back and casual. It didn't seem unrehearsed, just casual. I loved it all. This was for radio and it was appropriate as such. LOVE Trespassing! I can't wait to hear the recording. Can't wait to see more of the promo work he does in the next few months! So good to see Adam performing and hear his voice and see him performing again. It has been too long. No complaints here.
Don't understand all the negative comments about the band. They were sitting on stools, it was acoustic and the focus was on Adam and his voice. What's wrong with that? For those who dissed Tommy, what would Monte have done differently? Chill people - we all know that when it comes to a full-fledged performance, they will all rock out! Sheesh!
People need to quit complaining.Some of Adam's fans want to down him for everything and up Monte.I like both, but Monte did like the spotlight And alot of Adam's fans helped with his kickstarter. Some things being said is, he shouldn't say this band is better than the other.(That Kevin guy is as good as they come.)One that is good friends with Tommy, Adam & Monte wants to know what is wrong with Adam for some of these things he is saying seems to have opinions on lots of stuff.. Someone else twittered that Adam wasn't grounded and was getting a big head. Be nice.
I wanna clap too damnit!!!!! HURRY MARCH!!!!!!! lol
ReplyDeleteBtw: It's BRILLIANT!!!!
ReplyDeleteTrespassing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy Shit!!
ReplyDeletelove it ...come on March,,,
ReplyDeleteIs it March 20th yet?
ReplyDeleteThis is Not FULL version - next time just post it as in complete just like the other one. A full version would not lack sound in parts!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, Trespassing was live acoustic and we heard only 60 seconds of it. Livestream didn't work most of the time. A lot of interruption in between.

ReplyDelete"Trespassing" was blurred on purpose from what I hear. It's an unreleased song and they don't want the full version out yet.
ReplyDelete15 youtube videos of Adam's performances and interviews at Q-Music:

ReplyDeleteI'm not suprise about audience because I think QMusic Snowcase is TV or radio show. It would explain small audience.
ReplyDeleteJust found that QMusic Snowcase is performance for very small audience and competition winners.
ReplyDeleteIsn't adam a much bigger star than to be playing at this type of place? Do all the other big names do this also? Curious, that's all?

@7:48 PM Band didn't impressive me either. Kevin was the best part of it. Tommy was like sleeping. Cannot deny that I missed Monte.
