The Official Clay Aiken Discussion Thread

[CookieGVB]

I can't BELIEVE I actually forgot to keep up with this thread.

I'm so sorry - I was the person looking to go to Sewell - finances just wouldn't allow, with some extra auto expenses...not to mention my upcoming WDW trip.

Thanks for thinking of me - I hope you sold them, or got to go!

Clay is on the Tonite show with Jay Leno tonite!

 

[Fantasmic303]

oh my heavens...i just wached some video from some of the recent shows...those of you who are going are in for a real treat!! especially those of you who have FRONT ROW SEATS...pay attention when he sings what are you doing new year's eve...

i guess they are really crracking down on the cameras and cell phones. my friend couldn't call me from the baltimore show.

let's hope that miss fantasmic up there recovers after her show!

I can't wait for Friday!! I'm a little bummed though - I know I'm not going to be in my right mind during the show, so I was really hoping to have lots of pictures from the night. I even practiced with no flash at the Radio City show last week!! I though I'd be able to share them with you all!!

In addition to Leno, don't forget about the Today Show (Wed), The View (Thurs), and the Early Show (Fri)!! It's just a week of Clay for us to enjoy!!


But anyhoo

Can't wait to see a whole hour of Clay tonight! Did anybody see him on Leno last night? Apparently, he showed a video of his vocal cords. He was also on the Today Show this AM. (I was at work, so I couldn't catch it.)

 

[disneychrista]

airplaycentral has video of the Tonight Show, including the vocal cords. It was pretty gross. He is just like my oldest DD though, his tongue get "coated" with white junk when he is sick. LOL.

now i don't know if it was NO CAMERAS period...or if it was no flash period...hopefully it's just the no flash...i'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

he was delightful on both the tonight show monday night and then on the today show this morning! i so can't wait for the special tonight!! he's on the view tomorrow...

 

[Kimberle]

Great show last night! I LOVED Santa is coming to town by Clay, Barry, & Yolanda. They sounded so perfect together & looked so natural.

 

[scarlett873]

good show! i thought it had plenty of it's share of cheesyness though, but that's alright...i'm not complaining!! i'm still gonna buy the dvd next week!!

 

[scarlett873]

forgot to post this reminder...

clay's on the view this morning!! check your local listings...

he's also appearing tomorrow on the early show on cbs!

i also saw a blip at the end of access hollywood yesterday that said he'd be on today too! don't know what that's all about...but thought i'd mention it!

Its not on for us. We are a day behind for some reason. Same thing with All My children we are a day behind with that too for some reason. I have no clue when we got behind on these shows.

 

[Kimberle]

Just watched Clay on the View. He sang Mary Did You Know & talked about some passages in his book.

I so rarely get to see him on daytime TV. But today I was off. I will try & catch him on the CBS am show tomorrow.

 

[flamom]

i loved clay's version of mary did you know, such a beautiful song. i thought he sounded great last night. i just put his book on hold at the the library.

 

[Fantasmic303]

Ok, so let's talk about how I absolutely HATE it when I want to see something on an early show, wake up SUPER early so I can get ready for work before the show comes on so I can actually watch it but NOT lose my job, only to discover - already too late to hop back into bed - that it's not even ON on the right day, that it's just taped and showing on another day.

On the bright side, it looks like Clay will find his way under our trees on Christmas morning, as that's when his Early Show appearance has been scheduled for.


However, on the REALLY bright side....

MSG was absolutely beautiful last night. It IS an amazing show, even though we were pretty far towards the back. My only complaint is that there weren't screens and we didn't bring binoculars, so I had to keep reminding myself that it really was Clay.

And, just as a warning...

Tonight? I may throw up, if Clay comes near me. I hate to say that and sound all fangirly/Claymatish (cause I am SO not), but it's the truth. I'll try to stay calm and remember to breath, but, COME ON - It's CLAY!!

And hopefully I'll have a picto-report to share with you guys!!

(Of Clay....not of me throwing up.)

 

[Tess]

Thanks for the heads-up, now I won't have to suffer through The Morning Show!

 

[scarlett873]

geesh...why oh why did they change his appearance??? i went to watch the view yesterday to see him, but it looks like we're a day behind here for some weird reason! ack...so he's on today...i hope!

glad you enjoyed last night's show kylene! please...don't throw up on clay tonight! i thought of you when i was watching a downloaded clip from one of his shows when he sings what are you doing new year's eve...my absolute favorite song on that cd by the way...remain calm tonight...and more importantly....BREATHE!!!!!!! you're gonna have a great time!!

dh and i will be driving to lovely des moines, iowa next week. (woo hoo...the only vacation i get for awhile...note sarcasm) anywho, i'm trying to figure out how i can convince dh to listen to the audio version of clay's book while we drive...plotting plotting plotting...

 

[disneychrista]

So when IS his appearence on the Morning Show? I am taping right now, since I am 'hard at work.'

 

[Fantasmic303]

Don't even bother watching it today - his appearance won't air until Christmas morning.

If they change that and add an earlier date, I (or someone, whoever hears first I'm sure) will post again!!


PS - Does anyone know who I can call to get those two hours of my life back? I really could've used the extra snooze this morning!!

sweetie...something tells me that you'll be running on pure adreneline here in about 4 hours... you don't need sleep!

 

[Kimberle]

*sigh* It's 8:47, do you think Kylene is dancing on the stage with Clay now...........

 

[Fantasmic303]

Hi guys!!



By the way, how about if we all agree not to respond to the thread to the attention of Claymates? I really hope we don't have any Claymates here, but I don't feel like arguing the merits of Clay with anyone today, so I'd prefer not to have that particular thread on page 1.

How's everyone doing?
