It is July 5th…I hope you had a fabulous 4th of July!

 It reminds me how much I love holidays!!

Oh…Wait!

There is some news about an upcoming holiday that might make the next few months move quickly!

According to the Chandler Center for the Arts, Clay Aiken will be performing at the center on December 16, 2016.  The program is called Christmas With Clay Aiken. The Chandler Center for the Arts writes:

Clay has admitted that his tombstone may one day read “That Guy From American Idol.” But history (and the stone cutters) would be sorely remiss to diminish his accomplishments to only his participation on that show. His first single made him the first artist in history to debut at #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. Yes, he’s sold six million albums and sold-out 11 nationwide concert tours. His 2004 memoir, Learning To Sing: Hearing The Music in Your Life was a New York Times Best Seller, and his run on Broadway in Monty Python’s Spamalot was a critical and box office success. Come hear holiday classics with Clay accompanied by a twenty-two-piece orchestra.

I bet you are smiling now!

Chandler is a  suburb of the Phoenix, Arizona. Chandler Center for the Arts opened in 1989 as a shared facility between the City of Chandler and the Chandler Unified School District.  The Center hosts over one thousand events annually.

So…can you wait 6 months to see Clay in concert?  It does sound pretty exciting.

BUT…a word of caution…We have not heard anything from Clay about this concert. I do believe that since this concert is listed at both the venue and Ticketmaster that it was safe to post here.   I will feel much better when it is confirmed by Clay.
