Like a pro, Adam finished the song and then addressed the crowdabout the scary encounter. “It's just weird to be, like,in the moment, you know," said the 36-year-old. "And you're singing,and your eyes are closed, and you have this beautiful moment. And then the nextthing you know someone's f***ing in your face … It's super terrifying."
