Adam Lambert brings glam-rock show to Borgata
By REGINA SCHAFFER For The Press http://pressofatlanticcity.com/life/sunday...1cc4c002e0.html ATLANTIC CITY — Glam rock is alive and well, and Adam Lambert is loving every campy, over-the-top second of it.
Hitting the stage dressed like a trippy circus ringmaster and singing his hit "Voodoo," Lambert, the Season 8 runner-up of "American Idol," kicked off the Atlantic City portion of his "Glam Nation" tour with a non-stop, one-hour set Saturday night at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa.
The show, of course, brought out the expected, and sometimes rabid, Idol worshippers — the fans who scream at the first strum of the guitar for Lambert's current radio hit "Whataya Want From Me."
"Hello!" Lambert exclaimed to the screaming crowd after his opening number. "Welcome to New Jersey. Wow!"
Lambert may have ultimately taken second place on the show (the "Idol" title ended up going to singer Kris Allen — and some fans never quite got over it), but Lambert has taken the opportunity second place affords and run with it. Lambert live, as evidenced Saturday, is an experience for the fan, complete with laser lights, a posse of dancers and multiple costume changes that would make Boy George proud.
Luckily, the substance matched the style.
Lambert's range was on full display in ballads like "Soaked," and he threw in a few acoustic versions of songs for good measure. Fun pop stylings like "Music Again" — a campy dance number reminiscent of another over-the-top band, The Darkness — kept the show moving at a good pace.
Lambert was smart to play to the predominantly teen, tween and middle-aged mom crowd, and toned down the overt sexuality that has landed him in hot water in the past (kissing a male keyboardist during an televised performance in November resulted in ABC's "Good Morning America" dropping him as a musical guest). Instead, for his single "Fever," Lambert replaced boy-on-boy kisses and gyrating pelvic thrusts with merely putting his arm around said keyboardist (with a little bit of sexy dancing, of course).
Australian-born singer-guitarist Orianthi, who opened for Lambert, started her set off with a bang — a drum and bass beat literally felt in your chest — and a wicked opening guitar riff that quickly explained why she was originally supposed to be the lead guitarist for Michael Jackson's "This Is It" concert tour. There were a few hints of pop-rock-sweetness that won the crowd over, like Orianthi's "Shut Up and Kiss Me" from her debut album "Believe." (She asked the crowd to repeatedly scream "shut up," garnering cheers.) But Orianthi's hard-rock edge and sound seemed at times like it belonged to different type of concert entirely — and more than a few of the young Lambert fans used portions of her 50-minute set as a chance to hit up the bathrooms.
Alison Iraheta, who took third place behind Lambert in Season 8 of Idol, opened Saturday's show. To close your eyes and just listen to Iraheta sing, one might think Joan Jett was in the building. Her powerhouse vocals and non-stop energy — albeit during a brief, 20-minute set — did move the Idol fans in the crowd. Still, Iraheta, while gifted vocally, lacks the charisma that Lambert just naturally oozes. If she can polish up the stage presence a little, Iraheta could potentially be performing for bigger crowds.
But if Saturday's show proved anything, it's that headlining is clearly Lambert's thing.

Getting back into real life - Husband and I went down to the Borgata show via a stay at bed and breakfast in Ventnor, just 5 miles from Borgata. Timing in life being everything, we managed not to have dinner - only some munchies at the hospitality meet-up at the b&b.
Borgata was much more civilized that Starland Ballroom - line-up was organized, and we found ourselves with other short people at the far left of the screen as you faced it. Young woman sporing bindi, 80 yrs old woman working on her next show after Foxwoods, red-haired woman sporting KISS t-shirt complaining how Adam went disco and cut his hair all wrong on my right. Generally all good times tho. Husband was remarking that this must be a cultural phenomenon. (Husband hates to go to concerts.) But husband now thinks the Borgata was a fantastic show, but the one at Sayreville was more "raw", and prefers that experienc.
You never know your neighbors at a b&b - but this morning we shared a breakfast table with "joe and jon" who were obviously a couple. After exchanging pleasantries we got into "what did you do last evening" - the guys were taken aback that we hadnt had an actual dinner, but we explained about the hassles of getting into an Adam Lambert concert. The blue-hairs listening in started commenting about how they wouldn't got to Adam's concerts b/c of not knowing what he would do, (we put their minds to rest), but our table companions were appreciative of our review, and added they had seen Adam's clips for his musical theatre with Val Kilmer and were on board.

For all the controversy surrounding American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert, you can't say he doesn't have the splashy goods to back up his public dramas.
Announcing to the world he was gay in a Rolling Stone interview was cool. Lambert hinted as much throughout Idol's eighth season (during which he lost to Kris Allen), so coming out of the closet was but a modest coda. Sucking face with one of his boy band members on the American Music Awards seemed uncool, but only because it came across as so contrived and forced, a calculated shot at Madonna-like notoriety.
He lost a couple of television gigs after those awards. Who cares? His voice is that of an angel with a powerful and dynamic range, a tenor with a glass-cracking falsetto touched by the hand of God and blessed by the spirit of Freddie Mercury. That's what brought "Glamberts" out to the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City on Saturday night. That, and the costume changes, which ran from steampunk circus ringmaster to leathery lizard king.
The most noticeable thing about Lambert's live presentation was how much more electric he was on stage than throughout his 2009 album For Your Entertainment.
From a musical standpoint, the blipping techno of "Voodoo" and "Down the Rabbit Hole" borrowed liberally from Depeche Mode's thick synthesizer sound. That density gave Lambert something other than fluff to stand on as his voice leaped easily from moody lows to sweet high notes. Lambert yodeled throughout the snake-charming swirl of "Ring of Fire" (the Johnny Cash chestnut) and made tuneful panting into an art form during the lusty power ballad "Sleepwalker."
Better still were the stripped-down instrumentation of "Whataya Want From Me" and the piano-filled, Sondheim-like "Soaked," which gave Lambert room to breathe and provided grand cabaret of the highest order.
Australian-born Orianthi was the opening performer. Best known as the lead guitarist for Michael Jackson's "This Is It" concert comeback that never was - and featured in the film of that name - she took command of the stage with her own brand of edgy rock, a slashing guitar style reminiscent of Eddie Van Halen, and a squeaky but seductive voice that made "Shut Up & Kiss Me" into a surprisingly sweet pop anthem.

I was at the Borgata and absolutely LOVED the concert! I think it was the best concert I have ever attended, and would kill to be able to attend more. He gives so much of himself. I was mesmerized by his singing, dancing, costumes......everything!
I do feel sad, however, that I didn't get to see him perform WLL. (Saw him perform it last summer and drooled all the way home!) I was so looking forward to the slow, sensuous version in person. Also, from where I was (in the bleachers), I couldn't see too much Adommy action. Def no hot, sexy kiss. :no:
Which brings me to my question for people who were there and might have attended other, more frisky concerts. I know Adam has said his performance is a mirror, reflecting back what the audience shows him. Since no sexy WLL and no hot Adommy action, and no tweet after the concert, I am worried, As an audience, did we let him down? He seemed happy - big smile throughout. LA there (could see THAT from the bleachers!!) Fabulous performance. I know he and Tommy have been sick with colds. But not as frisky as at other concerts. (both Nokia shows, the last Club one in DC for example) Is it that we weren't as receptive or showing him as much love? I would hate to think that.
In any case, even without WLL and kisses and tweets, he still gave an amazing performance, and i am thrilled I was able to be there.

I was there too and have seen three other concerts as well. I felt that Adam was under the weather. The show was awesome and Adam was amazing and to someone who had not seen any other show or the videos, it was perfection. I sat next to a woman who was a 'virgin' when it comes to GNT and she was floored by how great it was. I also met another girl who was seeing the show for the first time and she was over the moon at how amazing the show was.
We rabid enthusiastic fans who have watched every video and attended multiple shows are spoiled rotten and have become 'educated' critiques. Ignorance is bliss in this case. Adam on a 'not-so-great' night is a million times better than other artists on their 'best' nights.
Moonlightchiara' date='Jun 29th 2010, 1:36 PM
Thanks for your response. I totally agree with your last paragraph. And not that I want him to be sick, but I feel better thinking he was under the weather rather than that we as an audience didn't "reflect back" enough love. Even so, he was more than awesome.
Four shows?? Wow, I am SO envious. I couldn't go to the Nokia shows (and boy, do I wish I had been there!) and I was desperately hoping he'd do a show on the Island (Jones Beach Theater, the Colisseum or the Music Fair anyone?) Luckily, I have a wonderful friend who knows how much I love Adam, and she offered to drive to AC so I could go. Interestingly enough, she was not a fan of Adam. After the show, I looked at her and she said, "I liked it!" in a surprised voice. (She even asked about Strut, saying she really liked the "song with the cane") I asked if she could now understand his appeal and she said yes. When we got home and I told that to her husband, he asked her why. She said he's a good singer, a good dancer, he puts on a great show,and.....he's nice to look at! The look on her husband's face was priceless! (Especially since she had always kind of rolled her eyes -nicely- when I went on about him. She's NOT a fan of th makeup and campiness.)
Then, the next day we had lunch with friends who asked her about the concert (they already knew how I felt LOL) and she said, without being asked, that she could understand his appeal, etc. etc. and then said twice that he's got a good body and is nice to look at! (We already knew that but coming from her....LOL!) Someone asked if she thought he was erotic/sexy and she said yes, he was! Again, from someone who never saw his appeal! Adam, you have worked your magic again!!

I haven't had a computer since this show, so ya now I get to tell you all that I MET TOMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ohyeah: :ohyeah: :ohyeah: :ohyeah:
This was my 4th and final show :( But omg. Meeting Tommy made up for all the crap The Water Club put us through. Never stay there. Seriously. If you're going to a show there, stay at the Borgata, not the Water Club. But omg. The concert was AWESOME. We were like...7 or 8 people away from the stage this time, and then on top of a fantastic show, met Tommy afterwards in the casino. Got a pic with him :D My eyes are closed in the pic but ohwell he is the sweetest!!!

So, I've dragged husband to Sayreville and Borgata. And he was good with that, but kind of looking askance that I also had tickets to Musikfest in Bethlehem and the Staten Island show. He was sounding very much like he wouldn't be up for Musikfest.
Came home from work tonight, and he asked - so when's our next Adam Lambert show? I"ve got this song in my head and I need to listen to it, don't know the name, please play the CD. Turns out the song stuck in his brain was Fever, and going out to Musikfest is back on the table.
