But he found him one. SO good in his audition, he was just perfect. Topped himself, so good at his role, so mature, respectful, we are soo lucky to have him. Gregory. GAwd, don't you know he will treasure that intro in his heart forever? Now he's introing allison. says the song mcwl was introed by her. has special place in his heart. so he decided to have her do it, it's very poignant to him, he gets to sing it to her every night, mentor, friend, allison lawrence.

Gawd, he is just amazing. AWww. he let Gregory speak. Gawd, how can he even sing after this love in? Gregory? "thank you to clay for letting us be on this tour, and thank him for everything he's done". And he is just going into DSIAFCD like he hasn't been hit upside the head with emotions that are running out my ears just HEARING this. *sob*. from Jill [email] [homepage] 0:37 am - Saturday,December 31, 2005

ooh, she's getting lots of awwwwwsss from the audience. They have achieved their goal of incorporating the audience into the "story." apparently. BIG ovation for Q. Good. Dang, gurll, you tell it. She is sooo amazing. just sitting here shaking my head back and forth, living it with her. wow. standing ovation for Q. Now, Clay's yadayada. BRB. from Jill [email] [homepage] 0:15 am - Saturday,December 31, 2005

ooh, this mdyk? he seems to be blending differently just a wee bit with Q&A. and he is hitting diff syllables for emphasis. just perhaps the most effective rendition i have heard yet. he even seems to have a different accent for this. and *sob* that "i am" wow. HUGE ovation. I am SOOO out of words, y'all. GAH. Does that do it? Shoot, GB won't let me post, so I'll just blather on. Lots of prinnggs I'm hearing. Now Beverly and Tommy. Allison is doing a GREAT job driving home the story in this vignette. Now Q, coming in so softly, v. nice intro. Sounds like they are ready to leave tour behind them....but not Christmas, know what I mean? from Jill [email] [homepage] 0:10 am - Saturday,December 31, 2005

This Emmanuel? Wow. I KNOW I tend to just fling praise, and whatnot, but DANG. He started out just honestly... breathing out the story... and now he's just right and left flinging out glory to all who are smart enough to hear and catch. These rejoices are strong enough to walk on. oh, wow, that Emmanu.....el? a perfect silky blankee pause before that ...el. I don't know how to describe, but v. v. effective. Oh, and odd cutoff to that last "rejoice." Almost like he ran out of air, which we know he doesn't do. so musta been on purpose. from Jill [email] [homepage] 0:05 am - Saturday,December 31, 2005

He has touched a new chord somewhere, or something, cause he is so gentle on this OCAYF. Wow. From Hark to gentle coaxing... oh come let us adore him. The way he is singing this "lord" could build an ark for all Claynation on its very own. GAH. OMG. That last "Christ, the Lord?" Wow, walk on clouds. He is on FIRE. from Jill [email] [homepage] 0:00 am - Saturday,December 31, 2005

TFN. I am continuing with the delusional life of Jill mind, but Oh.my.god. He is just...just...can't even describe. I never ever thought about the meaning of this before, how odd it would be to live what happened, but oh.my.god, he is just OMG, he slayed this song, the frying pan of talent was just back and forth hitting everyone upside every head. OMG so many glory notes, you can't imagine. HUGE standing ovation. unbelievable. Wow. and i so admire gregory for coming in with a very understated reading. just underlines the story, and how amazing the story can be. now we're at HTHAS. I'll try to post quickly and be back, but I'm having problems. from Jill [email] [homepage] 11:57 pm - Friday,December 30, 2005

Okay, I am SURE this is all in the mind of Jill delusion, but I swear, this piano intro to the second half? Really does sound to me like peeps filing into church Christmas Eve. Just lovely vibe to it, and you hear background voices, and welcome and cheerful spirit. And now we're hearing "pringggs" which are even more cheerful. Hee, Beverly says to Tommy, who taught you how to dress? Love that! Hadn't caught before. OHN. oh, yeah. He started out sooo deep, just glorious, now we're lifting off into soaring glory... just divine. So peaceful, in a joyful, sharing, euphoric way, you know? Almost like a anesthetic (sp?). OMG, my eyes rolled again at that angel voices line. Dang, he grabbed that one. He is gonna leave nothing behind tonight obviously. Dang. I'm sweating. Gregory reading, and I swear, you can FEEL the angel watching indulgently. And we can HEAR the angel voices, then softly, oh holy night, diviiiiinnnnneeee. Wow. from Jill [email] [homepage] 11:52 pm - Friday,December 30, 2005

No M&G... my heart bleeds for those who were scheduled to touch the Aiken. from Terror [email] [homepage] 11:46 pm - Friday,December 30, 2005

Hee, amy e. Didn't realize I was _so_ predicatable. I ain't herding tonight. BIT is at a sleepover. : ) Sad report re M&G's. The winners have been told M&G's were NOT scheduled for tonight. Thinking Clay has a flight he _has_ to meet, and he is not gonna be able to meet them. They are talking to Mary, trying to work something out. I thought I was unorganized before I witnessed the wonders of Clique. Okay, here we go, show starting, brb. from Jill [email] [homepage] 11:44 pm - Friday,December 30, 2005

I waited until Jill was going to take a break, herding her kids, or something before I posted. Don't wanna miss an eloquent word! MGM- I have ridden that coaster in your pic. No, No! not Clay but the Sheikra. I stayed put in the middle though. No front seat for me! I like being in the middle. Just like a squished up David Duchovney/Clay Aiken sammich! Run to see Shine's new montage "Carolized"...it's faboo! Clayton kisses to Ga. Kim from amy e [email] [homepage] 11:37 pm - Friday,December 30, 2005
