Today is April 1st, 2020. Are You ready to be pranked??
Somehow, in my mind, it seems pranks and Clay Aiken go together. Even if Clay is having a busy day speaking, writing, or even traveling…I bet he will have time to celebrate April Fools day!!
April Fools Day, sometimes called All Fools Day, is a day of unknown origin. Yet, most of the western world knows this is a day set aside for good hearted pranks, hoaxes, gags, and giggles. It is a day that the gullible, well…watch out!
Pranks performed on April Fool’s Day range from the simple, (such as saying, “Your shoe’s untied!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommate’s alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, “April Fool!”
April Fool’s Day is a “for-fun-only” observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their “significant other” out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It’s simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!

Do you have a special trick up your sleeve for April 1st?
Not much into foolery, but really enjoyed your article about April Fool’s Day!
One thing for sure – Clay really was on the day of this video. His voice is always
amazing but this show was way out there with the magnificence of Clay
singing! Love every single video of this show in Raleigh.
The most probable way (because of current situations) I can be fooled is by my home-bound family! Thank you, CANN for the pictures and the virtuoso performance by OMC!
Thank you for all the pictures and the video. I was never into the pranks. I love this song and the pictures of Clay with the red hat. I love when Clay sings songs from Broadway. Thank you again.
One of my favorite songs performed by my favorite singer, Clay Aiken. Which concert was this? I'm sure I saw it, but I can't remember when. Maybe 2006?
