Couch Tomato Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Bwahh -- kid was in a talent show -- he came in 2nd -- like that Clay Aiken guy If he said that..then BWAH Catching up at Clayversity: Audience is roaring at the vignette... Silver Bells...duet Children laughing.. People passing.. I am going to cry...he sounds so good!!!!!!! Silver Bells....it's Christmas time in the city...ring a ling...hear them sing...soon it will be Christmas Day...... so gentle...so much control... he is singing with someone...not sure who.... very quietly and gently...dayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.... piano music... Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire... Jack frost nipping at your nose.. Very very tender with just piano in the background Wow, you can really hear the poignancy in The Christmas Song. Just beautiful. Christmas Serenade (Lee Ann Womack) She smiles at him, he says, "Hello" They stand beneath the mistletoe Embarrassed by the awkward circumstance He asks her if she’d like a drink She says, "I better not I think Oh, what the heck, maybe just one glass" They talk about, oh, this and that He says, "I like the way you laugh And I’m so really glad you’re here" Then suddenly it’s much too warm She feels his hand against her arm The season loves the reason for romance It’ll get you if you give it half a chance The night goes on, the music plays A moonlight Christmas serenade A lovers’ song that’s meant for only two And they don’t even know it yet But this is one they’ll not forget The holiday where all their dreams came true Across the floor he spins her around Oh, could it be they’ve finally found A love worth waiting for Then in the tender yuletide bliss They share an unexpected kiss The season loves the reason for romance It’ll get you if you give it half a chance Then suddenly the night is gone It’s late into an early morn The season loves the reason for romance It’ll get you if you give it half a chance I'm assuming that's one of the songs he did that I didn't recognize.

Back to the actors - something about it's important to spend the holidays with people you care about, even if they aren't your relatives?? ---- Piano intro...slower song...Clay singing. Sorry don't recognize the song. Wonderful song and glory notes! WOW! Something...Baby Boy. --- Celebrate - Kenny Loggins --- PLEASE CELEBRATE ME HOME!!!! KENNY LOGGINS!!! OMG!!!!!!! --- OMG!

Ansamcw Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 From CH: INTERMISSION. Evangeline talking with Dolcepenza Clay's hair is kind of spiky, blondish in the spikes. He is wearing a grey suit, long jacket, and grey pants, and shirt. A lot of the vignette things, there is dancing in the front of the stage, Clay in the rear. Dancers in the front doing a pas de deux, wearing ugliest jacket she has ever seen. Dolce thinks they went out to look for the ugliest jacket. Girl is wearing red silk jet, they are dancing like at a Christmas party. Clay is on stool in back. Sometimes hard to see him. Sometimes he will come out toward the front and sing toward the audience. But not really interaction with the audience. He does a growl at the end of last song. Growl killed Dolce.

Ansamcw Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 From CB: CLAY DID A GROWL ON THE LAST SONG\ --- There have been NO FLASHES SO FAR and people actually have BLACK TAPE!!!! --- HAIR LOOKS GREAT, AND NOOOOO ROOSTER HAIR. --- More from cellstream caller: No Jerome sighting so far. Band is on stage but kind of high up and behind gauzy curtain so hard to see them. William Joseph is there (playing grand piano) + Felix, Daniel and Andy Abad. --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djs111 Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Clay did say that he was just like the soundtrack for this show - sounds like it will take some getting used to the difference between this show and the JBT. He sounds wonderful. And is it strange that I feel very normal, sitting here at 2 am, listening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couch Tomato Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 FROM CLAYVERSITY: Intermission report from Elfe350: From her front row, center seat, Clay was practically in Elfe's lap! He was just right there! He's engaged throughout in whole show, kind of like he's the director; sometimes the cues people, he's walking around stage like he's the master of the show. Sometimes he'll point at a person, they'll freeze, then later he'll point at them again and they move again. Voice is GREAT! On one song he growls! Celebrate Me Home. Total big growl. Last song of first half. Will be a big fave! LauraQ video'd the first half. Elfe video'd some, took a few pictures. She can't tell if people are flashing or not since she's in the front. Someone near Elfe said no flashes were going off. Lots of security and arena people watching for flashes. There was an announcement by Clay at the beginning, it even talked about taping over the flash with electrical tape! It was full of acting, little vingettes; choir tacher is like older woman, alone, doesn't celebrate Christmas; the young boy takes to her. They go through scenes from her memory, when she was younger; sometimes Clay interacts in the vingette, hand someone a prop (handed them a cookie cutter). He's not a character but is involved, he oversees it all. Angela's song was Angelaish. Started out restrained, then got much louder. Hair - Elfe loves it; it is longer, spiked in top, spikes combed back slightly; reddish, lighter highlights, looks good. Not as dark as we've seen it sometimes. Fantastic. Long suit coat, black pants, black collar shirt, no tie. Looks like clothing from The Insider. Clay's the in charge; he's directing. Very theatrical. 3 sets, living room; kitchen, made cookies; wheeled table out w/ glasses, punch bowl - hurt video view. The band is behind a transparent curtain in back. William Joseph is playing piano - just didn't open. Jacob, sax on one song; can't see the other musicians. Not a crowd size to be ashamed of. Thinks probably 75% full. She's really enjoying the show. Clay is so engaged by it all. Glowing, beaming, totally into it. Someone near her spoke with someone from the venue who said it seats 2800, sold 2400.
