In June, Nederlander Concerts announced their plans to create a series of concerts and special offers at The Greek Theatre benefiting the Griffith Park Recovery Fund (GPRF), which supports the reforestation efforts needed after more than 800 acres, were scorched in the May fires.
Now, multi platinum recording artist, Clay Aiken has donated autographed merchandise which will be available during a silent auction prior to his performance on Saturday, August 4 with all proceeds benefiting GPRF.  Items range from a limited edition poster, to an autographed book, t-shirt, CD’s, and much more and will be available for bids in The Greek Theatre plaza beginning at 7:00 PM.  In addition, the winner of this exclusive package will receive hospitality passes to The Greek Theatre’s VIP Deck after the show.

Clay asked if anyone knew what song that was. The crowd shouted The West Wing, and he clarified anyone who hasn't seen the last 10-15 concerts.

Mentioned Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader. Sounded like he spoke with someone from SC who is also gonna be on that show???

His voice is spectaular tonight - as usual!!!

Time for The West Wing. I love how he get's into this while the symphony is playing it.

"Give it up for the Greek Theatre orchestra. Anybody know what that song was? Anybody who hasn't been to 15 shows know what that song was? I love that show - The West Wing.

I've been on a TV show. Going to be on Who's Smarter Than a Fifth Grader.

Talking to Quiana about something. Something about - see my socks.

Something about there being a difference between playing dumb - and just being dumb.

Tons of laughter in the crowd. Can't hear everything he's saying.

um...Survivor...no...hmmmm......that show on that FOX network. When I was auditioning for it, I had auditioned in Charlotte. I auditioned in Atlanta the next week. Slept out on the street? Q, you were there, right? Q--Nope. I had 5-6 different songs...sings snippets.
Everybody was singing on the street and I didn't want to share cause they were getting on my nerves. I forgot what it was I was going to sing. My brain farted.

hi all,

I have been listening to the cellcert from Mel, while i was driving...

here is what i remember...

Faye is in the audience

This audience is not as enthusiastic as the last night

best guess estimate is that there are about 3000 out 5000 seats sold

the venue is exceptionally beautiful. It it multi tiered with trees surrounding

black shirt

jeans

and

plaid jacket

sounds like the Newark outfit, I will ask....

Black shirt on and jeans, and the grey jacket and the hair looks gorgeous....Both Clay and Quiana threw their shoes at Angie when she was done.

Clack is being procured...

He went hog wild during the Jefferson dance...on his knees...swinging his jacket around...

He is messing with Angela a lot tonight since her family is there...he said "we make such a cute couple!"  Her family is cracking up --

Quiana said "why are they taking pictures of your feet?"  "because of my socks!"  (yeah....sure....that's it)

He is funny tonight and he sounds amazing!

Sue is saying the stage is low enough so if he wanted to get down he could.

The end of the all in the family they were going back and forth on the last note.

Clay's mom is in the audience near Sue, and Angie's family is about 3 rows back in the pit. She is really close to him when he is on the end of the stage.

Jacket toss was during the jefferson song.

He is complaining about being so hot.

He was very flirty with Angela tonight, and Angie said that they would probably beat her up later. He was trying to get her to dance with the mic stand but she was not as flirty with it tonight.

People are really enjoying him ,,,guys as well!! An older couple in their early sixties are really enjoying it!!!!!!!!!!!!

They really bantered with I want to know what love is and Clay wanted to beat Quiana with the vocal gymnastics...and Quiana is just amazing!!!

She will give a detailed comment on the jeans after the show is over.

Angie shoved him at one point!! Teasingly of course! He was picking on her about her dad being a preacher..

He talked about how hot it is there...and asked the audience to blow on him and they did!!! They made blowing noises. He said it is not as hot as Pala...

Quiana talked about aiplane incident.

They announced no flash or video but our favorite clackers are getting it especially Spotlight!! Yay!!!! She is getting most all of it on tape.

Took so long to get you people to stand up.

Got something to say--gonna' hurt you people's feelings. I need to tell you sumpin'. I'm not cool. I try really hard to be but the truth is I'm not. Angela, have you ever known me to be cool? You didn't have to say it so emphatically. I'm not. Off the hook, off the chain, off the meat rack... I don't know any of these things cause I'm not cool. In order to be cool you have to sing fast songs. All the cool people are on the radio and they sing fast songs. They play only... I don't know what you've heard but you ain't heard me on it because I ain't cool. I've got people like Aubrey teaching me to dance...to be cool.

Q--Y'all know I'm black. You know that.

The point is I need some help so I've asked Jesse, Quiana, Angela ....in Hollywood, home of the music industry, gonna' have to sing cool songs, learn to dance, off the chain... stars of today.

I Like Big BUTTS

He said Jaymes is here tonight.

Clay just stood there on the stage of The Greek Theater in LA and said that they were MANDATED to do cover love songs of the last 20 years. Titanium indeed.

When we started putting together this album we did love songs...some songs original. Jaymes asked me/encouraged/nagged me to write a song myself but I never was really huge on doing but she, like I said, drove me crazy asking me to write a song. Her brother is one of the most prolific songwriters in the world...we were in the studio one day and she asked him to write some lyrics. Literally in five minutes --it took him to write an entire song. It took me five minutes...and seven months to write the lyrics.

So very, very quiet when he sings this song.

Now...Oh don't get all upset...

Give it up one more time for the orchestra.

Been very fortunate...talented people all over the country. So much talent... More talent on this stage right here than... and that's just the three of us. There is so much talent, if you live in the LA area you are extremely blessed. Some play studio sessions.

The usual support your community arts programs part.

Another thank you to you for allowing us to do this. Q and A put up with me day in and day out. Q and A are going to beat me up? We see your faces, recognize so many of you from chasing us down the interstate. Jesse's been with us for 3 years. Sean has been with us for a month. We have the most amazing time and we have to thank you for the opportunity and we appreciate it so very much. Thank you so much for coming. We appreciate you more than you'll ever know.

"Because You Loved Me"

I love that black shirt. :drool Can't wait to see clack. I was wondering about if any celebs were in the audience. Would had been cool if Jimmy Kimmel got to see him. I figured Jaymes would be there.

That has made it even more special !  It has so much meaning because he has "dedicated" it to us!

THANK YOU MEESA, PAMELA, AND MARILYN !   :clap :clap  

Thanks for the comments, everybody!  It was fun!

Post-Concert report, courtesy of the Clackhouse Cellstream:

He played to Angie's family.

Angela's son came out and danced during TWYMMF. Clay also came down into the audience.

Cool banter...so sorry we're disappointed because he's not cool.

He did not respond to some dude who kept yelling out.

He was a little hoarse tonight. The air is really dry. He told the crowd that that bothers him a bit.

No professional photographers tonight...just "us."

From the CB...

More...

Orchestra really liked him, especially the violin section.

Jaymes was in the sound booth, so no one saw her reaction to Lover All Alone.

jojo got busted on the first song, but she did get These Open Arms.

He was sweaty. But he's cool now.

Older couple that was there loved the second half!! I am talking to Sue again.
When he did baby got back. When he talks about butt, Angie told her dad not to get mad at her!! It was really funny she said.

Angie nailed her song!!! It was amazing!!!

Jerome said that there will definitely be a bus line.

Not the rivet or low rider jeans....sorry guys....just average jeans,,,,they were loose enough to do the grab.

Older folks were having a ball that were first timers and were just loving it.

Spot got good shots for the Classics but the rest was kind of washed out...She is talking to Sue right now....shucks....!!! So most of Spots is not like she hoped.

She is going to try and find JoJoct to see how hers turned out. If she sees her she will ask her.

He was saying how smmmoootthhhhhh the songs coming up were going to be.

He went into the audience singing the way you make me feel and his mother was in the audience and said that singing certain parts of it was weird with her there.. He got back on the stage just fine.

He did a lot of schtick getting back on the stage though... very funny and cute.

Jaymes was there in the soundbooth...and he acknowledged her.

Faye was sitting at Clays left with him looking down at the audience..

Hair is very light... Did not wear the jacket at all...later during the second half.
There was a huge bug that was on stage and annoyed Clay.

They had two spotlights,,,and one was on Angie and one was on Clay...Quiana was in the dark...they were talking about being cool...so he went over to stand by Quiana so the spotlight would be on her and then he would leave and she was in the dark again....very funny she said!

Not sure how MUCH clack yet. JoJo and Scarlett were busted and Spot had camera problems, but they all got various things, so there will be some clack at least.

Post by: Marilyn on August 04, 2007, 11:14:50 PM
He nailed Without You it was superb... Typcial banter on how long it took to record Lover All Alone.

The older folks stood up for the standing Ovation for Lover All Alone even the men!!!

They said the venue was about two thirds full.

Hundreds are at the busline!!

Sue will be doing the cellcert again tommorrow!! She has front row tommorrow!!! Yippee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi you all...here's my recap from last night...enjoy.


Glory at the Greek   


It’s noon Sunday, and I’m still in a bit of daze. Clay at the Greek…what an awesome evening…and the wonder of him performing in this historic venue…I’ve never seen him so riveting…no metal reference intended!   :slick

California blessed Clay with our best weather…the temperatures have been mild and comfortable…Clay fans gathered outside the venue, chatting about in the late afternoon sun.  Soon, we were allowed in to settle into our seats…we were dead center about 10 rows above the pit…great for hearing a full, balanced sound.  Initially, Thea and I were preoccupied with empty seats about us, however just about all of them filled up where we were in section A … many more filled up as the evening progressed…and while I’ve read estimates of an 50 to 60 percent attendance rate, I’d put it between two-thirds and three-fourths full.  This venue is nestled in a cluster of trees…a lovely ambiance for fabulous music making.

Just as the sun was setting, the magic began…Clay bounded on out…looking ever so fine…his hair is just about All Is Well style now, and in black…oh so sexy, yeah!  I was very pleased to note that he was backed by a large, skilled orchestra this evening. [I believe an oboist I know was playing this gig]

For this particular concert, I was more personally invested in his success…it brought me back to those AI evenings…hoping ever so much that Clay would continue his trajectory into actual stardom. As I listened to him sing out this glorious evening, his appearance at the Greek struck me as an important affirmation of his place in the world of entertainment.

Thea and I had some anxious moments early on…the dry air really appears to impact Clay’s voice…and there were moments when it was notably raspy.  But, with the breaks built in to the show, he was able to put it behind him by the second half.  As I reflect, it reminds me of the collective state of mind of the Clay fandom at Merrillville last December as we all prayed for Clay to hit those All Is Well notes. 

Quiana hinted at Clay being hyped up pre-concert time…and as you read the banter, he certainly was enthusiastic to the max…fresh audience reactions to it really enhanced my concert experience…it became obvious from the gleeful laughter many were hearing it for the first time last night.  Angela’s son is just adorable…a real cutie patootie, that young man!…he wore a broad grin, his eyes were a twinkle…and Angela was the proud momma!  The boy can dance…and dance he did for the pleasure of us all.  Clay managed to engage the entire audience in standing up and getting into the energy of the ‘transformation to cool’ groove.  The Greek was a rocking at the point…I heard many sing along…many male voices…using the phrase advisedly…OH YEAH!…hee

Stand out vocals this evening were MOAM in particular, and Lover All Alone for me.  I am thrilled Clay elected to sing MOAM again…I imagine it was a fantastic moment for him when he first performed it with a symphony for the Capitol Fourth, and I’m not surprised that he wanted to enjoy performing it that way again this tour.  With these skilled musicians, that song just flowed from his whole being. Lover All Alone was no less than a work of art…the cellist was brilliant, and Clay opened his soul and caressed each note with his loving spirit. As he shared “Because You Loved Me” with his fans, the night was all aglow with pastels.  The glowsticks were distributed far and wide, and Clay was so moved by this concrete expression of affection by us.  Before he exited the stage, he paused for a bit and appeared to be savoring one last moment…bearing a look of amazement on his face…as the audience was roaring in approval. 

During Lover All Alone and Because You Loved Me, Thea and I turned to each and acknowledged a moment of awe…a gorgeous summer evening, Clay’s extraordinary musical gifts, and an audience showing the love…Glory at the Greek. Yes.

Just got home from LA. so justa few observations about last night then I will organize my thoughts.

First it was a beautiful setting and the weather was gorgeous just like clayharmony said. Just about a perfect temperature.

Next I think Clay's voice late in the concert was showing some wear and tear from earlier. He had some trouble hitting the high notes on  "Lover All Alone"

Did not do the line because my daughter-in-law was with me and she was not feeling well. She needed to be put to bed.
Lots of fans were waiting in the bus line.


"and while I’ve read estimates of an 50 to 60 percent attendance rate, I’d put it between two-thirds and three-fourths full.  "
 Quote from Clayharmony I agree with your assesment.

I'll write more later when my brain revives, But for now know that Clay was funny , snarky, gracious, and his voice was magnificent.
