The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part 14, version 2.0 — Page 63

Ok, I'm really out of the loop. Is Next to Normal a revamped (hopefully shorter) version of Feeling Electric?

As was discussed yesterday, I think that's the reason why it's frustrating that we get bored at his concerts these days.

I totally agree, and I was referring to the current state of his career in a general sense as well. The move to LA was so ill-fated. He still hasn't broke into mainstream movies and there are months upon months where fans hear little to nothing about his career because he's home. The lack of an actual publicity team. The lack of a website (although I think that's being somewhat resolved). Giving your tour/album(?) a juvenile name, and yes, playing almost the exact same show (down to the jokes) for two years (I love that you mentioned the outfits). There's this sense of lackadaisicalness that hovers over his career.

I don't know, maybe he's content being unambitious (as Craww would say), at least in a practical sense. Even worse, I have this image of this post becoming the post read before Book of Endings at the next concert. Because God knows that's never going to leave the setlist.

I have that fear every time I post something that's critical.

But I mean, if he does repeat that type of post a la the last BOE intro, it's still repeating the same shtick. And it would just be more obvious that he's still performing the same routine over and over.

That being said, if he ever does read one of my posts, put me out of my misery on the spot, whoever's sitting closest to me

Forgive my attitude, I just spent all night working on a cryptic assignment for a class that I despise

shameless repost.

I'm still amused over how defensive he seemed when he said "Yes, that's the name of the project!" at the Columbus show. He's obviously read the criticism, so you would think that might inspire them to rethink it.

Stubborn.

That's fantastic. *loves*
