American Idol fans have a chance to catch up with one of the show's more popular—and controversial—contenders, Adam Lambert, as he takes the stage in Indio next month.

The singer will perform on July 21, and tickets went on sale today, according to casino spokeswoman Anndee Laskoe.

As of this afternoon, tickets were still available, though selling out at a steady pace, Laskoe told Banning-Beaumont Patch.

Ten people even camped out overnight to score the best seats in the house.  Lambert performed at the casino in 2010, and that show sold out.

Tickets cost $109, $89, $69 or $49, and can be bought at the Fantasy Springs Box Office, via telephone (800) 827-2946 or online at www.FantasySpringsResort.com
