I think he says “throw it out of here” to which she responds “I’ll throw it back at their face” or something like that.
To me it sounded like “throw it, Al-i-son”, but how can we know for sure until someone posts more vids! We hardly even get to see what she’s doing, since she’s mostly out of frame.

Adam Lambert ~Starlight~ Cleveland, Ohio 8/23/2009
Sunn….you rock! You need to quit your day job and be a you tube detective. I wonder how much money there is in that…hmmmm
As for the possible standing O for Danny…I went to two concerts in California as Danny was finishing his set….all the adam fans started chanting “adam” and screaming. It was loud. I wondered if Danny thought it was all for him. I know he has fans…but the adam fans all over the venue were going insane as Danny was finishing.
That girl’s got a couple of Adam-signing vids, too….
I am pretty sure that the people in the video of “My Wish” that I just watched who were standing and cheering and waving their arms through the song were intending that feedback for Danny. If they were just sitting there quietly and leapt to their feet and starting cheering at the end of his set, this comment would be credible but that’s not what appears to happen. Certainly the cheering does intensify when Adam’s intro starts. But Danny gets a lot of crowd reaction during his set.
I do find it pretty amusing that so many of the SR vids are 99% focused on Adam, even when he’s not singing! I feel bad, but that’s how I tended to watch it live too (sorry Allison!) Both of them are great, but maybe there’s just the added level of “what will Adam do this time?” Plus his faces and expressions during that song when not singing are awesome!
LOL! I drove 5 hours to see a second show
I had the same feeling about needing to go again! Now I’m seriously considering a third show (by now my family knows I’m a lost cause and just goes with it
) The plus side is that they keep coming back to PA every few weeks, so I can take a break, then go again to another PA show
Hard to tell from where I was. I personally thought My Wish was just ok. I was not a fan of the heavy sermonizing message of it (yes, I know, I’m not the most gooey, feel-good person in the world
) and throughout the song all I could think about was Adam coming soon. The audience reaction was nice for it, but hardly epic.
Sunn, Thank you soooo much for posting those. Just finished watching WLL and am getting soooo excited for tonight!!! Tonight’s the night I actually get to BE THERE!!!
I’d been feeling a bit, bleh about going lately, thinking I’d watched one too many vids of Adam and not being fully appreciative any more so I’ve been hanging back from the concert threads and not watching the vids. IT WORKED!! This one got me pumped! Now I just have to hope that the ear plugs I got take care of the helium effect tonight. Woohoo! hope he pulls some of these WLL moves again tonight.
jms!!! I’m so excited for you. I’m sooo jellus.
Please tweet for us if you can.
Enjoy tonight, and don’t forget to pop by afterwards and tell us all about it.
I really am excited for you, WooHoo! That last WLL was like a caffein injection of Adam fascination. I hope he gives you a rrreeally good show.
Have fun.
Sorry, no tweeting as I don’t have text on my phone. It’s an 1.5 hour drive so I should be home 12ish. I’ll stop in to tonight’s concert thread when I get back and tell ya’ll about it.
That’s alright, just as long as you have fun.
Have a safe ride.
Oh, have fun at the show! I’m jealous, because I just want to go and see it again and again
One of my fav parts of the WLL vid is that the camera goes crazy and shakes uncontrollably at all the wild moments during the performance! That’s mainly the reason I couldn’t actually videotape him – I’d just be shaking with excitement and energy the whole time! Nothing would come out right.
I’m going to Columbus tonight, I just hope Adam Rocks it like he did in Cleveland, that was hands down my favorite Adam performance (WLL) he really let us know that he still will let it ROCK! He’s been taking it “easy” on his voice.
Cleveland Adam was UNREAL!
