It is the beginning of a new week…so much seems to be happening for Clay Aiken and I hope we hear more from him soon so that we can really know what he plans to do in the near future.
Just a bit of a reminder to all of you…I cannot re-print Clay’s blog here. It is against the rules for the Official Fan Club. I bring this up as I have received many requests to post Clay’s blog here. So…we can talk about it, discuss it, be happy or sad… but until Clay says it can go public or it is put on the public side of the OFC, you will not find it here.
Of course, as soon as I have news about Clay’s future projects, I will post it immediately. Please check back to get the news!
I am getting very excited for the National Inclusion Project’s 10th Annual Champions Gala. This year it will be hosted by Clay Aiken and will honor Champions of Inclusion who work to ensure no one sits on the sidelines.
Something very special will be auctioned off this year at the Gala…Clay is putting the Jukebox from The Jukebox Tour up for auction. He said that it has been sitting in his house and is in excellent condition. Do you have room for a beautiful addition to your entertainment room? Wow…that would be so much fun! I hope that this classic piece raises lots of money for the National Inclusion Project.
I found some fun facts about Jukeboxes:
1. Manufacturers did not call them “jukeboxes”, they called them Automatic Coin-Operated Phonographs
2. How much do they cost? It all depends on the condition, model, rarity and age and an agreeable seller and buyer. They can be as inexpensive as $100 to over $30,000.
3. No one is really sure how many Jukeboxes have been made. A guesstimate is about 2 Million.
So, according to The inComplete Jukebox:
A Jukebox… has the ability to entertain through sight, sound and feel.
The following are a few of my favorite memories of The Jukebox Tour:
Which of these pictures is your favorite?

You did it again! I can NOT choose which is my favorite, lol! They ALL are! Wish I had the money AND the room for that jukebox. It's going to be fun watching the bidding!!
I am a member of the official fan club 2years paid twice. My laptop messed up my e-mail and it is gone, so I cant get to the official fan club, I want to see the blog so bad it is not fair…..
Margaret, did you try typing in http://www.clayaiken.com and going directly to the site?
Margaret- we are all having issues on the OFC- are you getting the error message that you need a membership to view the page? Just hit cancel if you are!
can't choose, love them all. Looking forward to more news about Clay's future ventures. That Jukebox should bring big bucks for NIP. Thanks Musicfan xox
Clay loves performing and singing as well as interacting with the audience! Just look at the joy in his eyes.
I love those pictures. Clay looks like he”s having fun. Thanks!
This time I do have an absolute favourite. There is nothing like Clay singing Elvis songs on top of his Baldwin piano. 😀 Clay as Elvis alone is priceless, add the piano top, nothing short of amazing. Wish I had been there!!
