Glam Nation: Kansas City


This was a stop that brought protesters but it didn't seem to have much of a bearing on the performance. Adam's hair is down and soft and his makeup is on the less dramatic side. Fever is highly gyratory and thrusty with plenty of energy and is followed up by a mighty Sleepwalker. WWFM seems a little speedy and Aftermath brings lots of joyful contented smiles. SFW has some different riffs and the pose along with the coat at the end of Strut reminds me of that of a matador. Monte gets into the mosh pit with the audience as Adam looks on with mild concern during MA. WLL is an acoustic version that is fast paced with minimal keys until the instrumental break. It's a great vocal, with 'Baby' being replaced with 'KC'. Here's my playlist:

  1. AB, wasn't Aftermath so beautiful, I loved the extended pause at "all you feel is love", given the hate that was happening outside the venue. Am also loving the pause for the "in the aftermath" belt. Monte has just been so impressive lately. I enjoy the Monte/Adam interaction more than Adommy (lol). (Nikki)

  2. Nikki, there are so many beautiful Aftermaths I'm having trouble choosing a favourite right now. I'm also a huge fan of how Adam and Monte work together. Their relationship seems much more serious than the Adommy one. They seem to have so much respect for each other and often don't even need to verbally communicate because there's an instinctive understanding there. I'd love to have more of an insight into their workings.
