Ah yes, Adam Lambert. As runner up on American Idol he’d already courted some controversy with many people thinking he should have won the show but a performance at The American Music Awards caused all sorts of outrage Stateside and Monte was there to witness it first hand as he is now playing alongside Lambert as he promotes his new album.

“I’ve know Adam since 2004 since we met on a show called the Zodiac Show,” says Monte. “I’ve studied music history and I don’t remember it being as safe as it is now. I think the American Music Awards and American Idol are just too safe and what Adam did was just get in there and shake it up a bit! Now he’s coming out with his album and we’re doing promos for that. We’ve just done Lettermen and The Early Show and many others.”

I think you can read into what Monte is saying. First Adam shook up American Idol and AMAs by being edgy and 'different'. American Idol wants to play it safe not taking any chances on their winner not being acceptable by all. Come on the AMAs have always been over the top. America can't handle a kiss? Madonna did the collars/S&M in her video. Its nothing new. Now the band and Adam is out doing all the shows and more. Good for Adam and Monty. Plus a Gold Album!
