Why does he give them this attendion. I reserve comment because it would need to be censored.He considers them friends. Thats itThe thing is- they stayed and were front row and center with support when he came out. Since they are young and sassy, I think he appreciated it. I just hate how obnoxious they are to others or in front of others.

Marilyn - have you heard anyone say anything about Clay's voice tonight. When I read about last night's show this afternoon, it seemed some people thought he might have had a bit of trouble in places.
ch1 wrote: I have a question - if Clay's voice is hurting from doing five shows in a row - how do Broadway singers not blow out their voices? If Clay were to perform in a show with a lot more singing than Spamalot - how does he not lose his voice? In Broadway shows, the performers usually aren't onstage and singing and performing non-stop for 2 hours. There are, of course, exceptions, but for the most part it is the case. They also are not getting on a bus after each show and traveling to a different city, and in some cases, a different climate every night. Touring companies would be the exception of course, but even they are not usually traveling every night.
I could think of one show where a character sang as many songs in a two hour period as Clay does during this tour, and if those songs were as vocally challenging as many of these songs are, I might consider being concerned. As it is I can't think of a one so I'm not worried about Clay's ability to handle Broadway. Looking forward to it, as a matter of fact. *And did I miss something? He hasn't, actually lost his voice yet, has he?*
Many reasons, take your pick- *He sings a lot more on a Solo Concert Tour than he would in a show. *He wouldn't have all the M&G's if performing on Broadway *He wouldn't be traveling from city to city and sleeping on the bus *He had a cold before the tour started

Mrs. C - I don't know you but I'm glad to see you here tonight. Come back any time because the more the merrier.
Interesting info Marilyn. I know sometimes when singers are sick they just go on vocal rest. He needs to not talk too much and save his singing and talking just for the concerts.
