Adam Lambert delivers glam-tastic show at The Tabernacle
Considering the amount of theatricality in an Adam Lambert show, there’s an extreme danger that it could all collapse into a pile of forgettable fluff.
Adam Lambert is one of the most talented singer “American Idol” has seen in its nine seasons. Hyosub Shin/hshin@ajc.com
But Lambert is more than a prettily painted pinup able to get both boys and girls to fawn over him.
He is one of the most – if not the most – talented singer “American Idol” has seen in its nine seasons.
So while it’s a hoot to watch him prance around the stage in feathered shoulder pads and a top hat – call it his own Freddie-Mercury-meets-P.T.-Barnum look – his presence is even more gripping when he starts to sing.
See photos of Wednesday’s Adam Lambert concert at the Tabernacle.
At a nearly-sold-out Tabernacle Wednesday night (his second show in as many nights, the first at Woodruff Arts Center), Lambert bopped through an hour-plus set that highlighted his multi-octave voice and solid pop songs that veer from potent ballads to club thumpers.
His supple voice sounded undiminished as he stalked through a haunting version of Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire” and the disco-tastic “Fever” – impressive considering he’s been on a fairly grueling tour since June and will soon head to Japan and Australia for dates through October.
Lambert is a natural showman who moves fluidly and is vocally capable of taking a song such as “Sleepwalker,” one of the more pedestrian offerings on his “For Your Entertainment” debut album, and making it a highlight thanks to his lovely voice that can swing from a whisper to a wail.
But the most illuminating example of his abilities came on the operatic “Soaked,” a powerful ballad that he handled with the polish and passion of a Broadway vet.
Though Lambert was clearly enjoying himself throughout the show, thrusting his pelvis for a sassy routine with a cane on “Strut,” gleefully aerobicizing the glam rock anthem “Music Again” and even turning the uncomfortable warmth inside the venue into a joke about the “hotness” of the crowd, he was particularly unfettered during a special encore.
It’s usually his bassist, the New Romantic/Flock of Seagulls throwback Tommy Joe Ratliff , who garners most of the non-Lambert attention on stage, but on this night, drummer Longineu Parsons received a tribute that should have the Glam Nation all atwitter.
Since the dreadlocked sticksman is departing Lambert’s tour to return to his band, Yellowcard, Lambert and the other three members of his group donned dreadlocked wigs during a tight and tuneful rendition of T. Rex’s “20th Century Boy” as a cute way to say goodbye.
Expect to find it soon on YouTube, where Lambert’s evolving career is already a digital encyclopedia.
Since the start of his tour, Lambert has given his fellow season eight competitor Allison Iraheta primo visibility with an opening slot.
The upside is that Iraheta, who was recently dropped from her label, gets a chance to remind people that she possesses a brawny set of pipes and the potential to develop a career.
The downside is that, live, Iraheta too often resorts to shouting rather than singing and could use some guidance in steering her vocals.
As with most of the “Idol” alums – especially the also-rans such as David Archuleta, Elliott Yamin and Melinda Doolittle – it was gratifying to see how Iraheta, at only 18, has developed as a performer.
A diminutive figure in black with a maroon mane that she flailed like any good rocker chick, Iraheta connected with the snarling rocker “Don’t Waste the Pretty” and the acoustic “Scars.”
But her messy, breathless version of Pat Benatar’s “Heartbreaker” and the hoarse yelling throughout “Friday I’ll Be Over You” were evidence that Iraheta’s raw edges still need some smoothing.

Love Soaked. It really shows off his vocal talent. This guy is without a doubt the best vocalist and performer to come from American Idol.

“No doubt Mr Lambert absolutely ruins T. Rexs 20th Century Boy” – hey humpty – novel idea here – why don’t you listen to it before you assume that you will hate it? If you hate it then, fine, if we all liked the same music life would be boring. But because you don’t like the way he looks, he must not be any good? Life fail on your part – open your mind.

Dear Humpty H.,
I think I have seen your silly moniker and negative comments before, have I? Since I don’t seem willing or able to lower myself to your apparently uninformed level, I will simply suggest that someone as “unbiased” and “magnanimous” as you appear to be would do well, in the future, to go to Youtube and watch at least one of “Mr. Lambert’s performances, before, you pronounce sentence on his appearence and/or his performance. I just know you meant to. Did you not?

Thank you for an enjoyable review which actually focuses on the music and showmanship of Adam Lambert! I’ve been to three concerts on the Glam Nation tour, and each of them was delightful in it’s own way. This show will be remembered especially for the dreadlock tribute! The fact that Adam isn’t afraid to take risks, repeatedly challenging himself to keep his performances fresh, makes for a very thrilling ride. I’m proud to be an Adam Lambert fan. He isn’t only the most talented singer to come from American Idol but also, in my opinion, the most talented singer . . . period.

Thanks for the review. The dreadlocks were a riot. Who else but Adam F. Lambert could pull off a reggae Whole Lotta Love in Halloween dreads? I have also been to 3 Glamnation shows because one just isn’t enough and wish i could go to more. It’s more than a concert, it’s an event.

His show is actually going to the Pacific in October and then Europe for the entire month of November, and I believe some dates in December as well. Amazing 6 month world tour for someone just starting out. And practically sold out everywhere.

I was at the concert last night and I was exhausted when it was done! LOL. Can’t imagine how he does it almost every night! I loved it! The special long tribute to Longineau was amazing! Adam is going to be around for a very long time. Can you imagine what his next tour will be like in the bigger venues? But I’m happy that he got to do this tour in smaller venues because it’s up close and personal. Although I wouldn’t mind being MUCH closer! LOL

I have to ask people why are they thanking Melissa for a great review? She didn’t review Your concert. She reviewed Adam Lambert’s concert. I find it odd when people do that. She’s not complimenting you. There is no need to thank her. Also, how many people does it take to respond to the one idiot poster?
My response: Adam is the most talented singer to come out of idol. There are some talented singers from Idol ie, Clarkson & Hudson two heavy hitting vocalists but I think Adam has the best range and technically the most gifted. By far the best stage performer (others don’t even come close). So if I get fans of others panties in a knot but just stating the truth. I didn’t say the others weren’t talented because they are. Just saying his vocal talent is amazing. You have to see him live.

I’m a little embarrassed to say in Adam territory, that I’m a huge fan of that cute kid from Canada (don’t want to mention his name here, haha). My friends are huge Adam fans since his audition (have to admit he’s really cute too). One girl couldn’t attend his concert so they asked me to go. Since I had nothing better to do, I went along, Not expecting much and not knowing his songs, I wasn’t expecting to have so much fun. Haha, the ages of some of his fans. 60-year old men were dancing. Wut? Adam’s vocals are insane. I now have two favorite singers, and even tho Adam has the edge on talent, I still think my boy from Canada is cuter.

Melissa thanks for a very fair and interesting review of the concert last night. I’ve seen Adam live once in June and was “blown away” by his vocals and stage presense. He is by far the most talented and vocally gifted male singer in my lifetime. I stopped going to concerts over 15 years ago mainly because no entertainer interested me any longer. But when I saw Adam on AI I feel completely in love. Now I’m a mega fan.

No Mr Humpty, it’s not Halloween, it’s called a theatrical performance with costume for added perception. Ever heard of that? You might actually want to check out an Adam Lambert performance of Twentieth Century Boy before you start hacking it up. I think you will be amazed at his interpretation & delivery, if you are capable of freeing up your mind of whatever baggage is blocking it. Glam Nation concert = fabulous music & presentation!

Your guy from Canada,LOL. is VERY cute. I have NEVER said anything bad about him. My kids like his music. so I respect it, a lot. They, too, respect my admiration for Adam.
Glad you had fun at the concert. I wish MORE ppl were open minded like you!!!

I listen to all Adam’s songs w/earphones as to keep my experience more personal. When he came on the stage with the dreadlocks, my earphones were vibrating! What a fun experience. This guy can do anything. Noticed he was wearing dark lipstick last night, probably in protest to the article about guys shouldn’t wear make up. You go Adam, your fans are 1000 % with you.

This almost 30 year old, GaGa wanna-be can’t write, can’t dance like MJ, Chris Brown, or even Usher, and can’t create anything in production like GaGa does. He completely uses sexuality, selling sex, gossips, dirty pictures, throwing gay crushes on good looking men, dissing other artists, putting guy’s head to his crotch in public, even telling little kids some drugs are fun to try? Go away to theater. That’s the best fit to show your theatrical crap. This guy is one I will never ever buy his music in my entire life.

It is a pleasure to watch his successful tour break records and leave jaws dropping.

Sorry, Jackson – you’re completely off the mark. Look at the liner notes on his album and you’ll see what he’s written. As far as production, he was very involved in the entirety of it – there’s a recent article by the production crew in how creative he was and is. As far as MJ is concerned, why don’t you give the guy more than few months to show you what he can do. Saw Brown and Usher – they’re OK – so overhyped. Gaga – a few good songs and some crazy costumes – can she sing? Not very well. Lambert’s so past these people with his gorgeous voice, beautiful and charismatic stage presence, and intelligence and humor. And, in addition, he’s a kind, generous, loyal guy. Get real.

People at the concert are there for Adam Lambert. I along with the majority of Americans aren’t buying Allison. Any opener would do well with him. I guarantee you when Allison prepares for her next chapter, audiences will be tiny. She is completely riding on the shine of Adam. She does not sell herself as a serious rocker. Im sure shes a nice person but this is the music business. Jive dropped her because she’s one the the least succesful Idols to date.

@Leigh,
You’re wasting your time trying to correct/inform/enlighten @Jackson. You might as well be saying ‘blah,blah,blah,blah….” He, and his ilk, only see and hear what they want to and have little respect or need for the truth. He’s been on other blogs and it doesn’t matter that everyone else makes crazy sense (even some non-Adam fans have admitted to Adam’s talent)…proof means nothing. I’d be willing to bet he has never taken the time to even listen to him (at least not with an open mind)! He always compares Adam to others,even though Adam has never compared himself to ANYONE!
That’s his m.o..
Don’t take him seriously!!

I have been to 32 concerts with @adamlambert and @AllisonIraheta. I enjoyed the opening act Allison and so did the crowds like she was the headliner. I have yet to hear her shout. She has an amazing soulful voice that pierces your soul and brings chills. Most people fill the seats for Allison’s opening act and warm up for Adam. I enjoyed Adam performances, too. It is about the music with me. They both should be rock stars.

I love Adam Lambert. He is very gifted, and I was looking forward to seeing him at the Tabernacle……………. Alison was entertaining as an opening act even though the crowd Talked through most of her songs. Could be why she had to scream……….. Adam started out strong, but it ended up a choppy mess as he was constantly having to head over and have words with his mixer. There were gaps between songs that were downright uncomfortable and even the head stage manager had his fingers in his ears from all the kick-back. Something just was not right. It felt very unorganized……. Adam is a showman, but the concert felt sort of unorganized……Of course the people watching was fun, and only one queen and his hag got thrown out at the very beginning.

@melissa, Thankyou for giving a review that in no way reflects on non-show aspects of Adam. It is refreshing to read about what his show was like and not how gay he is. Adams voice is the first reason I am his fan and being a musician myself, it is not often I find someone I enjoy so thoroughly. Aside from his incredible talent he also has major charisma and a personality that shines on stage and off. If you are going to say “I bet he ruined” (@Humpty Humpinstein) you havent heard it, you dont know him and u obviously have a problem with other aspects of Adam. He doesnt ruin songs, he changes them to fit with his persona.

Great review. Unfortunately I was only able to attend one of Adam’s concerts this summer and I had to fly 3000 miles from home to do that. I was blown away by his live vocals and showmanship. Since he’s never likely to come handy to where I live, I’m already saving to attend at least one show on his next tour.

@Jackson I don’t think you know what you’re talking about. Adam doesn’t put down other artists. (that’s your job, buddy) and he CAN dance and write his own music. Too bad you know nothing about music history to tell that Adam’s idols include the 60’s, 70’s rock showmen like Bowie, Mercury, Zepplin, etc. Here’s a vid of Adam channeling MJ. Notice how Adam focuses first and foremost on his singing, dancing secondary without any lip-synching or auto-tuning like a singer is supposed to.

OMG these posts are hilarious! I love the post about the nursing home calling…..you left your teeth on the nighstand! I love the banter. The review was spot-on and I loved the description of Adam’s persona as “Freddie Murcury meets P.T. Barnum.” Freddie would have loved this I’m sure (I’m from that era and loved Freddie and Queen). Adam continues to excite audiences and his fans. I hope the tour overseas goes as well. Wish I could be there. I wonder why this one didn’t sell out. Very few haven’t. Love this great performer!

I actually found the Rumpled Stilt-Skin comment to be hilarious. In a crazy skat-a language, the Rumpled One means Adam’s performance was the BEST IT HAD EVER HEARD OR SEEN, just like saying something is ‘Mean’, meaning the thing is the very best. So in a roundabout way, Adam was paid a compliment.

I find it very entertaining how some relentless naysayers can’t stay away from Adam either. They are drawn to him just like his countless fans, but don’t have the guts to admit it. It’s okay, keep looking him up and enjoy! I am certainly having the greatest time to of my life to see a young talented dude with the most spirited soul win the hearts of so many.

these so-called naysayers/haters, they come here because they are fascinated. Also, they are just spying. you see they are fans for someone that didn’t get famous, and so they just had to peek here to read the review. Although they know deeply Adam is THAT FANTASTIC, they just had to say puke or be negative just so they feel comforted. So i don’t believe a word of negativity from them. I sincerely believe they secretly agree with us that Adam is fantastic and that he is an icon in the making! They are just in denial. It’s ok, they are forgiven!

[...] Access Atlanta – Adam Lambert delivers glam-tastic show at The Tabernacle “Lambert is a natural showman who moves fluidly and is vocally capable of taking a song such as “Sleepwalker,” one of the more pedestrian offerings on his “For Your Entertainment” debut album, and making it a highlight thanks to his lovely voice that can swing from a whisper to a wail.” [...]

@Jackson, Can you please come out? I’m sick of you stalking Adam’s article to write the same stupid comments. You must have the statement typed up and copy and paste to all of Adam Lambert’s article. I know you want Adam Lambert and he does not want you.

Sorry Adam is NOT the most talented ever to be on American Idol. Adam is the most flamboyant showman. Do you not know who David Cook is? Now that guy can sing anything AND he plays instruments. Really you should do your home work.
yup agree with sydney

David Cook is not going to go down as that great, sorry. His voice is OK; nothing to write home about. AFL all the way. Most brilliant entertainer I’ve seen in awhile. Adam is playing concerts all over the world. Cook? doubt they have even heard of him much outside US.

Adam is the most talented singer ever, niot just from idol! I have seen him live twice, unbelievable! No words can describe just how good he is! As for his bass player Tommy, I dont get what teh appeal is! He looks a bit silly trying to get in the way of the camera! Come on guy, your famous for what? LOL! He seems to want to copy Adam but is not too succesful! Sorry, but its true! He kind of likes the attention, but dont you have to earn it? Whatev….
As for those who are naming the others who are better, Adam is in a league of his own, idol was just one link on his career, it doesnt define him like the rest who were on it! He is more comparable to artists like Freddie, MJ, Elvis! If you dont believe me, just go to one of his shows and its this guys first tour! Wow, cant imagine what it will be like with a few years under his belt but Im looking forward to it!
The musician who does stand out though is Monte Pittmann, his guitarist! The guy rocks and you can tell that Adam and him have great chemistry together!
Oh, and O went to David Cookes show! He was just allright, not that great of a showman, I have seen 1000 other artists with better chops than him! Maybe you just havent stepped out of the idol bubble to notice? Oh well, to each his own!

Great article! it made me hate that I missed it! I guess I’ll have to catch Freddie – I mean Adam another time! (He really does remind me of Freddie Mercury) . . . shame he wasn’t considered for the new movie on Freddie and Queen
