Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Fort Myers, Florida Post by: heater on August 16, 2007, 04:38:07 PM Hey all!
I've already talked to my mom and she was worried about taking her camera in because there was a no cameras sign. I asked if she was already in the venue and she said yes. I laughed and said if you are already in and you don't use the flash, you should be good! My mom sounds just like me when it comes to taking in her camera! :roflmao (http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a245/msheaterfan/SRHP%20-%20Cary/SRHPTour-CaryNC-8.1019.jpg) Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Fort Myers, Florida Post by: Sundancer on August 16, 2007, 04:38:38 PM How are we supposed to compete with Mom P??

I feel like I have been on a deserted island all day. I'm absolutely going to hate the next week. The bad part is on my new job, I don't think there is any furniture, computers, etc. These people are going to have to get their priorities straight. :lol :lol Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: Pamela on August 16, 2007, 04:43:31 PM Heather &/or Pamela - Can you bring the info over? I'm going to have to leave soon. I can help out with the last 3 concerts. I've got it Meesa. I'm just now logging in to the CH stream, and calling the conference link. Multitasking on a slow computer sucks. I'm just sayin. Go party! Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: heater on August 16, 2007, 04:45:34 PM Heather, your photos are marvelicious! Is your Mom taking pics tonight too? Yes, she is. They are on the front row of the balcony, so she should do pretty good. She has the same camera that I do. :bigsmile (http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a245/msheaterfan/SRHP%20-%20Cary/SRHPTour-CaryNC-8.1053.jpg) Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: WilsonClaymate on August 16, 2007, 04:46:04 PM Heather - Great pictures as usual. One of these days I'm gonna get a real camera.
Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: Pamela on August 16, 2007, 04:49:37 PM Eeep...he's already singing Everything I Have....
I Want to Know What Love Is featuring the vocal gymnastics of Clay and Angela.... They must have confused him again at the beginning with who was going to sing cause there was lots of laughing....imagine that! Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: Pamela on August 16, 2007, 04:50:48 PM delu from the CH meet and greet tale from Knoxville.
Quote My meet and greet............. The Scroll bar is ...... yada yada...... What can I say? My brain is still fogged over. But if You ever want to be a fame whore, just have a meet and greet. Everybody wants to rub your hand and hear all the details. Never have I been so popular. The invitation suggests you call the venue for the appropriate place to be and time to be there. Ha! Box office lady says the office does not open til 6 PM.We kept telling her we were supposed to be there by 5:45 for Jerome to collect us. No go, so we called Jerome and asked whats up? His reply was" Pay no attention to the e-mail you get from OFC. We're not that fast! We left Our Hotel and wandered over to the theatre at about 5 Pm Where we were still told to wait.And wait we did, In the heat across the street with some others, who had been chatting with Angela and Quiana. We would have had a good time chatting with the other Clay fans sitting on the steps to a bldg.... IF... The temperature had just been maybe 20-30 degrees lower. Dang it was hot, and I was dragging My walker, which I never use any more unless I think I'll have lots of walking to do and need the support. Unfortunately I forgot My walker and had to use my Sister's which has a wonky wheel. Noisy screeching thing, It almost drove me nuts. Finally we were allowed to have our pretty M&G name tags, And Jerome came to collect us.We had one woman in a wheel chair and Me with my walker so Jerome took us by Elevator and the others had to climb the stairs. Hee! Sometimes being old pays off. Finally after traversing one hallway after another, we went into a room with a sofa and two chairs. I took one of the chairs, and Jerome pushed the Wheelchair Lady up next to the other. Three others sat on the sofa and one pulled up a side chair. We were all set and waiting for the master.*G* Soon Jerome came back with this slim young man who couldn't have been more than 18-20.with rumpled brown hair, wearing a pea soup green polo with olive drab cargo shorts.Hmmm, This was who we had been waiting for? Well he wasn't intimidating at all. Just a nice Young Kid who had very pale luminous skin. He asked us all our names and where we were from. The lady from St Louis had driven the fartherist (? is that a word?) I think.Then he asked if we had any questions.For some reason I don't remember any specific question except the ones I asked. Oh, yeah, someone asked if He ever babysat Chamberlain for Quiana. He said He doesn't talk about Chamberlain because He is too young to have any say in all this interest etc. Which I thought was sweet of him. He did mention that he had babysat Jaime's son. I can't remember his name, but Jaime verified that indeed he had and he was good. He let it slip that Jaime was around when he was supposedly baby sitting. Clay said He thought he was getting an ear infection, He was getting that stuffed head feeling like he had the time He was about 4-5 when he was sick for quite a while without getting better... Now I didn't understand if Faye actually took him to the Dr. or not but when he blew his nose that bean he had put up there came out. So of course I had to tell him about the time I put a bean up My little Brothers nose. Hee! Do all kids do this at least once?? My questions were, Who is choosing the music for this skating show? Him or the producers. He said both. He sent the producers a Cd of songs and the Skaters will choose which one they want to use for their routine. Also I asked about Jimmy Kimmel and if they had seen any of the Klimmel skits. He said he hasn't but he'd bet Jimmy has. I also asked (for my local group) If Raleigh and Durham still had their Fleece blankets we gave them. He said He didn't remember them, and possible they might not have made it to them. About this time He looked at Jaime or Mary who were both sitting at a nearby table.. She ( and I have no idea at this point which She it was)came to each of us to get whatever we wanted to be signed. I took my copy of LTS. The Wheel chair lady brought a huge picture by Linda Huber. Clay said something that I have long wondered. He said the sketch was too perfect to be hand drawn.He thought it was made using some computer software maybe. And His opinion was that IF she actually did that by hand she was wasting her time on doing sketches like that. She should be making tons of money. Clay came around the group of us and shook our hand then went to each person on the couch, they stood up and He Leaned in real quick and Mary did the Click click thing. Being short and knowing he was going to lean his head almost on top of mine I warned him not to displace My wig.. He said we won't and sort of giggled. I have no idea if he believed me or not! Yeah, He was Gawgeous!!!!!!!!! And I want to do this again... Oh yes, as we were finishing up the woman from Ashville who fell the night before, was ushered in. She missed the meet and greet in Ashville, so they had let her have it in Knoxville instead. She got her cast signed. Now if I try to proof this I'll wind up pitching it into the waste basket so I'm dun.... Angela was hitting some notes that aren't human! Clay: "Good-Ness!" HEE! Someone has already screamed "I love you Clay!" Introducing Angela and Quiana...telling Q she looks nice..."Quiana is a shopaholic!" Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: KSChristian4Clay on August 16, 2007, 04:53:10 PM Posting a few pics then I better run.

I wish I could hear what he is saying - everyone is cracking up!!!!!!!! Clay just said "good lord!" Dang! Now I'm really curious... OH!

You've got a whole radio shack in there!" When I See You Smile....he sounds really good. Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: heater on August 16, 2007, 04:59:48 PM I know Pamela, I wish I could hear what he's saying too.

I asked her to call after the concert so I could get a full report on what they thought. :giggle

"The girls have been with me a long time, they get lots of gifts now. Jesse and Sean got a lollipop --- to share between them." Brady Bunch --- "This man's fifteen lines ahead of everyone. That don't make you better --- just faster and louder!" Now he's singing themes from "Greatest American Hero" and "Bosom Buddies" --- "Tom Hanks dressed up like a woman!"

Near the end of the song he took her hand and twirled her around in a sweet dance and everyone went "awwwwwwww!" OK....Clay took Scarlett's camera and he started taking video of her, the audience, Jesse, Sean, Angela, Quiana, the orchestra....then Scarlett took her camera out of her purse and took video of Clay taking video..... and that's when he made the "radio shack" comment.... Clay is playing to their and everyone else's camera tonight.... prime grade A Carolina ham!

During the TV medley they divided up the audience into three sections to see who knew more of the songs...Clay said the balcony won! (That's where Marilyn is.... hee!) Clay is wearing a blue striped shirt and the wrinkly white linen jacket... rivet jeans.... Quiana went shopping in Atlanta and saw a cute shirt she loved at Macy's and bought it - she was looking at her pics last night and saw herself wearing the exact same shirt - she already owned it! :roflmao During These Open Arms (right after the TV medley) someone yelled out "you're going down Clay!" because he didn't let them win the song contest -and he said back "and you're going OUT!" :clap Clay talked about Quiana and Angela always getting gifts and that someone gave Jesse and Sean a lollipop last night. Just one. To share. :rofl The whole front row is full of people with cameras.... the orchestra was laughing at them Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: fhmmany2 on August 16, 2007, 05:50:25 PM :wave Barb - Has there ever been bad Clack?!?! :wink

Dad said that Clay is SO much better vocally tonight than when we saw him at Christmas in 2005. Both my parents are laughing and they think he's a great entertiner and think he's very funny!

She sounds awful! Poor thing! But she said Clay is really on tonight! She said when he grabbed Scarlett's camera he started filming everyone on stage and then she whipped out another one and started filming him filming them! When I think it was Quiana singing they wouldn't put the spotlight on her so he went and stood behind her so the spotlight would be on her! She said he's wearing jeans and the rainbow shirt from Cary? Also that he's really, really funny tonight and ON! She wanted to check to make sure that everyone could hear her on the conference call! I hope she feels better soon poor thing!

Clay's back! He changed shirts - he's wearing a brown one. Maybe he spilled something on it? :wink A Thousand Days, with the very interesting change ups, so as not to bore him.... :thumb and, it sounds lovely...

"I want to make it easier for people to be Clay Aiken fans. I want to be cool, so you can be proud." It's hard to be a Clay Aiken fan. It must suck to go to work and have people tell you all day long..."get that crap off of your desk." ".....if I have to hear that Invisible song or Bridge Over Troubled Water one more time!..." He went on and on with the "confession" :rofl "Something I've thought about talking about. I almost talked about it with Diane Sawyer."

He sounds hilarious and the audience sounded full of energy tonight. Can't wait to see the clack of him taken clack. :lol I'm so envious of the people that have seen him at every concert. Every one sounds better and better.

Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: Pamela on August 16, 2007, 07:06:16 PM Clay changed into a brown shirt with a gray pinstripe for the second half...he said "I've never had to change shirts before!" But he didn't say whyyyyy...
I guess sweat is not a reason to change shirts? Hee! The solo cello player was very, very, very into the show...especially during the cool song medley... There were tons of shouters in the audience.... and they weren't all teenagers either - Quiana had her own dawg pound.... 'woof!' Some woman kept yelling out "you make a difference Claaaaay!" ..... and other various annoying peeps Title: Re: Cellcert 8/16/07 :: Clay Lights Our Fires in Fort Myers Post by: Pamelas mom on August 16, 2007, 07:08:44 PM Such fun.
