In 2005, Clay Aiken traveled around the country presenting  The Joyful Noise Tour. Aiken dug into his theatrical roots for this holiday show. He  wrote a story that incorporated traditional Christmas songs and tunes from his Christmas CD,  Merry Christmas With Love.   He spent little time in the spotlight, instead letting the actors and dancers perform scenes as he sang. It was more than a concert, but still highlighted the wonderful voice of Clay, backed by his accomplished back-up singers. It was fun to see how Clay used some talented actors and singers from his hometown of Raleigh. He also used capable performers from local theater groups from the area of the concert.

Did you get to see this concert live?? I was lucky enough to see it twice.

Because of the talent of so many fans, we have many wonderful pictures from that tour. Please vote for your favorite picture. This will be hard!!

Monday was my travel day from Raleigh to San Francisco…Why in the world isn’t there a non-stop flight?  It took much too long!

I guess I need to get back to my schedule now that I’m home.  You have all been very patient with all my travels.  Thank you!
