It didn't even register to me that Larry might not be in LA. You're probably right.
He seems a lot more in his element with a full band. It's strange -- I'll probably always think of him first as a Broadway performer and a rock musician second, but despite that, acoustic shows just don't seem to suit him. They're too subdued.
And hearing him play songs like Something of Ours, Every Time Around, and Model Prisoner when songs like No Trace, The Ringing in My Ear, Tomorrow and the Sun, Ordinary Boy, and The One that Got Away (do I really need to go on...?) are unplayed makes me sad!
I imagine what he chose for the tour was what worked best with Larry. He may go with different stuff for this. That said, those first two songs you mentioned are among my favorites. I love the chorus to Something of Ours, especially
We all want something of ours
To shine like gold
Taste like wine
And bloom like a flower
And I love the acoustic guitar sound on Every Time Around, and the way it soars at the end.

Heh, insert foot in mouth. I should probably clarify that it's not that I don't like the songs I mentioned (the only solo Adam song that I really dislike would be Mother's Child, and only the overdone screaming parts), but I don't feel they're among his best. It's obviously all so subjective, though.
Thanks for posting the chorus to that song, though. I never could understand what he was singing and have never really looked it up.
He's still a lot of fun to watch at the acoustic shows, but you're right, they are very subdued. It's just... kind of thrilling to see him really in his element, rocking out with the full band. You can tell how much he loves it, and that's contagious.

The audience's energy doesn't exactly seem to be too high, either.
Hee, maybe they're all in an Adam-induced trance.
If this is really completely solo, he's really going out on a limb. Has he ever done a show like this before?

If you look closely, you can see the words to Glory in the binder.
There's that necklace again...
ADAM SING GLORY! F*ck You, No
I'm really curious as to whether the necklace shows up at this next concert.
He looks rather demonic in that picture.

Hi Amber - I'm in dire need of one of your chocolate chip cookies tonight.

Join the club to be honest...I need to make some more. My apple pie finally disappeared tonight...it was sad.
So um...I got asked out at work tonight...and because I'm dense and don't know much about this stuff...I nearly missed it.
Aren't I the bright one...
That's great - was it someone you work with or a customer? (And how did you almost miss it?)

Aw. Yay! I'm jealous!

Someone I work with. Who knows what'll happen. I thought he was kidding...we don't have anything planned, and he may never speak to me again. I told him I'd be up for something, but instead of throwing a bunch of things out there, I needed a plan.
There needs to be a manual or something for this stuff...so confusing: How to Understand When Boys Are Into You for Dummies. Then, part 2 could be...What To Do When Boys Are Into You for Dummies.
G'nite...Sweet Dreams

A manual would be helpful. Good night! I'm off too.

I've lived in Montgomery County my whole life, so it seems odd to me that someone would name their child that.
ETA-Wow that was really off topic, sorry
I know a family with the last name Montgomery, but I never really thought of it as a name.
Went into the city w/ my camp to go take a tour of Madison Sqaure Garden. It was pretty cool. The weather was a different story. Very humid, & muggy. And it was raining super hard w/ thunder & lightning. Bleh.
Yeah, the thunder and lightning were pretty heavy.
This has got to be the ultimate eyelash photo.
