Thank you everyone for your comments, hope to see many more comments, it just solidifies Clay Aikens standing with his fans. Knowing how charismatic Clay is, I am quite sure the tour and concerts will be an evening to remember for all who go. Should be something extra special on the Valentine's day show.

I have to wait until March to see my 2 Clay concerts...but believe me it is sooo worth waiting for!!! One cannot have too many Clay
concerts!! Clay is untimate entertainer!!
Hopefully someday, he will be honored for
that award!!!!

Great post guys...
I will be going to Clay Aiken's last show on March 12 at The Warfield in San Francisco, CA. This is a surprise for my wife, she does not know it yet... and gives me a chance to see a great entertainer live.
Note to all: Buy your music responsibly, and see your favorite artists like Clay Aiken live. This is how musicians and entertainers make their money. Illegal downloads of music hurts everyone.
Please don't forget to look at our sponsors, and help support us all.
On Clay Aiken, talent is talent, that can't be fabricated or manufactured...

Lucky me, I will be at the Houston Show.
January 20, 2011 at 4:13 PM
I was planning on attending two concerts but have been talked into going to a third. With Clay, no two concerts are alike. He may sing the same songs but you never know what he will be bantering about. Clay is the best all around entertainer that has come along in years and he must be seen to be appreciated. In addition to the voice of an angel and his heart of gold, he has a sense of humour and gift for comedy that other performers would die to have.
Thank you, George, for the great write-up and I know everyone will enjoy another fantastic concert.
January 20, 2011 at 4:59 PM
Thank you. I will get tickets to this tour.
January 20, 2011 at 8:50 PM
Thanks, George, for this great article about Clay and his upcoming Tried and True Tour. I've been anxiously awaiting my two concerts ~~ in Towson, MD and Glenside, PA!! Wish it was more, but I'm thrilled with my upcoming Meet & Greet in Towson. Clay's concerts are always unique and sooo memorable!! No two are alike and there's nothing like experiencing Clay LIVE!!!! Hope YOU have the opportunity to see the show, too!!!
January 20, 2011 at 10:30 PM
Thank you for the informative article. My husband and I so hope to see him. My husband loves Clay's new album - that is a feat in itself. GO CLAY!
January 21, 2011 at 5:42 AM

January 23, 2011 at 1:25 PM
