Music: Play date with Adam Lambert

MUSIC

Adam Lambert enjoys playing around with preconceived notions, and that includes proudly showing that there’s depth and self-awareness beyond stereotypes. Lambert’s other clear goal as a pop star is to celebrate all aspects of the word “play”: pleasure, performance, flirtation, virtuosity, masquerade. His debut, “For Your Entertainment,” is a polished affair, but stylistically, it shows Lambert running loose like a kid in a Comme des Garçons store. With the Hollywood pop A-list at his disposal, he chose to go for it all. Pacific Amphitheare, 100 Fair Drive, Costa Mesa. 7:45 p.m. Thurs. $29.50-$59.50. pacamp.com.
