Couch Tomato Posted March 11, 2010 Report Posted March 11, 2010 I intend to buy a ticket for this concert -- but I'm hoping some better dates pop up for me. I'll be on the east coast so eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I know I'll get to see Clay this year which makes me tharilllllllllllled. Quote
Couch Tomato Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 Anybody else going to the first show? I'm looking forward to this one. Unspoiled. But it also seems a nice getaway spot. I still have to figure things out but I'd love to have a bit of time there if I can. Quote
Desertrose Posted April 2, 2010 Report Posted April 2, 2010 Anybody else going to the first show? I'm looking forward to this one. Unspoiled. But it also seems a nice getaway spot. I still have to figure things out but I'd love to have a bit of time there if I can.I am going, and I would love to finally meet you. I have friends that have been to Ashville, and they say that it is a beautiful area. I got my plane ticket last night, and I signed up for Ficus's group at the Doubletree. There is a motel just down the road that is about three years old, and I have friends that have stayed there say it is reasonable and has free breakfast. They liked it. That would have been my second choice. We will arrive on Thursday and stay till Sunday. I hope you can make it. Quote
Clayzy Posted April 6, 2010 Report Posted April 6, 2010 I'm strongly considering going to this one! It should be exciting because f I go it'll most likely be the first time I've ever traveled on my own! I'm checking out bus fares and hotel prices right now. The Guesthouse Inn is looking good--close enough to the venue to walk and a good price.I'd love to meet some FCA-ers, if I manage to get there! :^D Quote

The Guesthouse Inn is looking good--close enough to the venue to walk and a good price.I'd love to meet some FCA-ers, if I manage to get there! :^DSome of us are staying at the Doubletree, which looks like it's very near that place, so you can catch a ride with one of us in to the venue. The Biltmore House is way down a long winding road deep within the estate. If you drive in, you park your car and take a bus even farther into the estate. It's a very cool place, and an amazing venue for a Clay concert, and it's the first night too. You should definitely come!! Seems like a good sized group of FCAers will be there. If you can get a friend to go with you who would enjoy Clay, it's also totally fun to travel with a friend to see Clay! Quote
ToldForThis Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I am going and bringing 2 friends. We signed up for the package. Really looking forward to it. I have been to the Biltmore several times..... the house is wonderful and so are the gardens. The Azalea garden is beautiful in the spring. Quote
ncgurrl Posted April 10, 2010 Report Posted April 10, 2010 I am staying at the Doubletree. I have yet to figure out how I am getting from Raleigh to Asheville. I was supposed to be traveling with my sister but she bailed on me. Quote

bottlecap Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 From the CH:Just got a call from Ficus!!! Clay and Ruben are doing a soundcheck now. Clay's wearing a striped shirt, rolled up jeans and he is barefoot. She heard Clay and Rube singing "Eye of the Tiger" and "All Night Long" At one point Clay said "you gotta test this shit" The crowd there squeeled and he turned around and told them to hush up!! Felix is there on drums, she's too far away to see if she recognizes anyone else!! Quote

cindilu2 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Posted July 24, 2010 Would you explain why I have tears in my eyes?Dunno, but when you figure it out, you can explain mine, too. Quote
Carolina Clay Posted July 24, 2010 Report Posted July 24, 2010 I'm here, too. Haven't seen any M&G reports. Cellcert just started. The ET spot was great! Caro Quote
ldyjocelyn Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Posted July 24, 2010 The CH stream quality is worse, I think...and the cellcerter isn't talking during the show, which makes it very confusing.Keep those CV stream things coming! Quote
