Hey guys, happy 2011.

I got a little nice treat for all of you, in case you haven't heard about it yet.
By supporting the Adam Green documentary currently in work by Dima Dubson on his kickstarter page (links to follow) you can get YOUR hands on some awesome things.

Ever wanted to video chat with Adam? Ever wanted to meet him for dinner?
Ever wanted to be at a movie premiere? Just check out the amazing events you will not want to miss.

Already one dollar helps fund a great project: an Adam Green documentary.
I know you ALL wanna see it.

So head right here:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dimadubson/how-to-act-bad-a-film-starring-adam-green

It's only up and running 14 more days and I don't even wanna know if this project doesn't get funded.
Thank you, little teaser?

(Hey, Adam fans, are y'all posting generally elsewhere or have you all just been really quiet lately?)

Okay. The concert was great. Adam was opening for some band I've never heard of but which is apparently infinitely more popular around here than he is. 45 minutes after opening, there were only like... 50 people there. Maybe. 45 minutes after THAT, when they finally started getting their act on stage, there was maybe 100 tops. And most of them had come to the the Other Guys.

Meaning, of course, I easily got a spot as close to the stage as it gets. Photos will follow.

Adam is very fond of crowd surfing, I must say. So I actually held him over my head three times during his set. Once, I can now proudly say, I was between his legs for about 3 seconds. Lulzzzzzzz. I also totally might have maybe sorta kinda felt up his chest. I have no regrets.

After his bit was done, I decided I was bored of hanging around in there and didn't give a shit about whoever was on next, and it was a warm night tonight so I went outside and just hung around chatting with people and drawing and waiting for Adam to appear. It took... ohh... about two hours. Which gave me ample time to do a pretty good drawing of him AND meet a neat dude from Bolivia AND a hot chick from around here AND get to know one of the place's employees pretty closely.

Oh yeah and then I actually got to hang out with Adam.

See... it's sort of funny and sad, but apparently NO ONE ELSE was actually waiting for him to come out. Seriously. Not one other person. Not even the crazyhyper guy who practically bulldozed his way through the crowd to get closer to Adam. So finally, he showed up and tossed his stuff in his van and we just like... chilled for about 15 minutes.

Anyone who knows Adam's music or is at all familiar with his celebrity reputation might possibly think that he would probably be this superstoner druggie stumbling around drunkenly. I had honestly prepared myself for that. But... no. Absolutely nothing even close. He's just such a totally chill dude. He is not at ALL into his own celebrity rep. He was really interested in talking and really easy to talk to and hang out with. We just lounged against a wall and he asked me to explain the "Taxation without representation" thing on DC plates and we talked about touring and how he sometimes likes to go onto the Other Band's bus and crash there and wake up in another city, which he wasn't doing tonight because he'd done it two nights before and he didn't want the band he was playing with to think he was a snob. He said they had four hours to drive tonight to Raleigh or somewhere he wasn't sure, then to Georgia tomorrow. It was totally just like hanging out and chatting with a friend, not in any way awkward or weird or like "OMFG YOU'RE FAMOUS"... which I guess might be partly because there was no one else there. But he was very friendly and hugged me a few times (:D!!!!!!) and... yeah. He also said they're doing another US tour in two months and he wants to do more ballads then. The band he played with is called The Dead Trees and he said they were very incredible... they're sort of his US band kinda, and they'd had only 3 rehearsals with him before they started doing shows together, which... based on what I saw, is mind-blowing. They are REALLY good.

Oh, and yes, he gave an AMAZING fucking show with energy through the roof, playing to the crowd like crazy, totally involving them and totally into it. He is an amazing performer and an awesome guy.

And now you get pictures. First, you get my drawing, without a cut, because I'm evil like that:



( Now you get concert photos! These are really big images, FYI. )

Damn, folks. There are THREE bands playing this venue tonight, Adam and two others, and a grand total of maybe 35 people here. That is just SAD. I'll update later if I get any worthwhile photos. In the meantime... Wow. Just wow.

Har Mar Superstar & Adam Green perform 'Never My Love' for Drew Barrymore's upcoming film...

You can listen to the whole song from that page.

It is making me smile. A lot. I don't even know why. It's just a wonderful, wonderful version of that song. It's so... happy-zen.

And Adam.

HEY YOU GUYYYYYS!!!

This comm is too quiet, especially for there being SO GODDAMN MUCH new material for Adam out lately. People, I have been through over 100 pages on flickr and a ton more on Google and I'm too lazy to save shit like that HOWEVER, I will link to you a wonder beyond wonders:

CLICK HERE FOR ADAM GREEN'S PHOTOBLOG

It is updated regularly. The last update was 4 days ago. The photos are PRICELESS and the handwritten journal-entries are absolutely hilarious.

And by the way, this solves a question that has been brewing in my mind for literally years: Adam Green is BI. This makes me infinitely happy. Also, jesus christ he is such an adorable and cracked individual, I kind of just want to hug him.

Adam has a blog now -> http://blog.zeit.de/adam-green/

Aaaaand the feed adamgreenblog

Enjoy!
