'''Adele Live''' was the second concert tour by English singer-songwriter Adele. She visited Europe and North America, the tour supporting her second studio album, ''21''. Adele was backed by a five-piece band and backing singers.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog/2011/08/live-review-adele-at-the-greek-theatre.html |title=Live review: Adele, Wanda Jackson at the Greek Theatre |author=Roberts, Randall |date=16 August 2011 |series=LA Times blog |work=Los Angeles Times |access-date=21 June 2011}}</ref> The setlist comprised all of her songs from ''21'', except for "He Won't Go", as well as selected songs from ''19''. The shows garnered positive critical reviews, many of which emphasised the show's understated, “unplugged” nature, as well as the singer's vocal performance and accessible persona.
Recurring health and vocal problems led to numerous adjustments and postponements to the tour itinerary. The first European leg of the tour was uninterrupted, however. For the first North American leg (which was originally scheduled to begin 12 May 2011 in Washington, D.C. and end on 22 June in Minneapolis), Adele canceled the last nine dates after she was diagnosed with acute laryngitis.<ref name="Adele.tv">{{cite web |url=http://www.adele.tv/news/301/adele-s-north-american-tour-cancelled-due-to-illness |title=Adele's North American Tour Canceled due to Illness |date=3 June 2011 |access-date=9 June 2011 |publisher=Adele.tv |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110607161049/http://www.adele.tv/news/301/adele-s-north-american-tour-cancelled-due-to-illness |archive-date=7 June 2011 |url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-13659987 |title=Adele cancels North America tour |date=5 June 2011 |work=BBC News |access-date=19 August 2011}}</ref> These dates were rescheduled with some additional dates and some larger venues. The tour was sold out quickly across North America and Europe, and received positive reviews.
In September 2011, "continuing problems with a serious cold and chest infection" prompted the further postponement of seven additional dates on the second leg of the European stop. However, the tour was resumed on 13 September, and new dates for the missed shows were rescheduled. In October 2011, the singer again cancelled the remaining dates of the second leg of her North American tour—this time due to a vocal hemorrhage that caused internal bleeding near her vocal cords.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.latimes.com/health/boostershots/la-heb-adele-vocal-hemorrhage-20111005,0,1943101.story |title=Adele cancels her tour due to vocal hemorrhaging – is it serious? |date=5 October 2011 |work=Los Angeles Times |access-date=6 October 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111022231652/http://www.latimes.com/health/boostershots/la-heb-adele-vocal-hemorrhage-20111005,0,1943101.story |archive-date=22 October 2011 |url-status=live}}</ref> Adele was forced to cancel the remaining dates of her tour to undergo emergency surgery for the throat hemorrhaging.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/adele-cancels-tour-winehouse-new-album-20111031 |title=Adele Cancels Tour, Winehouse New Album |author=Nicolini, Jill |date=31 October 2011 |work=Good Day New York |access-date=1 November 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304021612/http://www.myfoxny.com/dpp/news/adele-cancels-tour-winehouse-new-album-20111031 |archive-date=4 March 2016 |url-status=live}}</ref>
== Background == Production designer Rob Sinclair wanted the stage to be sparse so the audience would focus on Adele and her voice. The back wall of the stage featured a "distinctive" wall of 96 cone-shaped lampshades using 60-watt household lightbulbs to illuminate them. Each lamp was individually dimmed and the bulbs of each lamp were dipped in a special rubber solution so they wouldn't break. The rest of the show featured moving lights and much white light to focus on Adele at the center of the stage. The moving lights were designed so that they didn't appear to move from the audience's point-of-view and were powered by Jands Vista's next-generation Vista v2 software. The decision to focus on sculpted white light for the stage won "considerable acclaim."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.plsn.com/international-news/8283-jands-vista-v2-controls-adeles-international-tour.html |title=Jands Vista v2 Controls Adele's International Tour |author=Moen, Debi |date=17 November 2011 |work=PLSN |access-date=5 December 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111217114421/http://www.plsn.com/international-news/8283-jands-vista-v2-controls-adeles-international-tour.html |archive-date=17 December 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.jandsvista.com/archive-2073/adele/ |title=Adele |year=2011 |work=Jands Vista |access-date=5 December 2013}}</ref>
The tour was minimalist in every aspect, from stage design to using each venue's own sound system rather than transporting a tour-specific system. The front-of-house engineer for the tour was Dave McDonald. McDonald carried an Allen & Heath iLive-112 with him during the tour and hooked it up to each venue's sound system with a Cat 5 connector. This allowed the tour to travel light and allowed McDonald to control the mix for each show using each venue's systems. McDonald used plug-ins to replicate the sound of vintage ENT plates for the sound. The tour chose to only use Sennheiser microphones. McDonald chose to have Adele use a wireless Sennheiser SKM 2000 system with an SKM 500–965 G3 transmitter. For the back-up singers, McDonald chose hardwired Sennheiser e 935s. The guitarists used Avalon DIs and the piano was a "gag piano", lacquered upright to look traditional but actually housed a Yamaha MO. McDonald's goal for the tour was, "I want the audience to forget who they are for a moment and be able to project themselves solely onto what's occurring onstage. That is, after all, why we go to shows."<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.prosoundweb.com/article/enveloping_the_audience_the_audio_approach_for_adele_in_concert/P1/ |title=Enveloping The Audience: The Audio Approach For Adele in Concert |author=Greg DeTogne |date=22 June 2011 |work=ProSound Web |access-date=5 December 2013}}</ref>
The tour featured a 12-piece string section that backed Adele up, consisting of eight violins, two violas, and two cellos. During some performances, a 20-ft mirrorball (named "Mirrorball Mike") descended from the ceiling during the encore. A screen lifted up at the beginning of the concert to reveal Adele and occasionally descended behind her with images projected upon it. During "Hometown Glory", an image of St. Paul's Cathedral was projected onto the screen.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://blog.stephenarnoldmusic.com/2012/02/24/adele-behind-the-scenes/ |title=Adele Behind the Scenes |author=Whitney |date=24 February 2012 |work=Stephen Arnold Music |access-date=5 December 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-09-20/adele-heads-to-u-s-with-heartbreak-songs-jokes-concert-joy-rock-review.html |title=Adele Heads to U.S. With Heartbreak, Jokes, Concert Joy: Review |author=Robert Heller |date=20 September 2011 |publisher=Bloomberg L.P. |access-date=5 December 2013}}</ref>
