Red reports from CV!
He needs to get away from Idol songs and sing something higher - "I was an alto all up until last week!"
 
MOAM so gentle and powerful

I don't think there's a band - just sounds like keyboard

Idol is how most know him. Hopefully he will do other stuff too.

DM is cracking up, so he's his usual snarky self.
 
Run to Me!!!!

cut off - back on again (still RTM) He sings it slowly and soulfully. Oops - now she has me on hold

We're back - "When I See You Smile"
 
Clay's voice is strong - maybe because DM is within 15 feet!!! (He's being snarky - I didn't hear what he said, but DM laughed!!)

Clay also said that Ben was the one who suggested Clay perform.  Seems Ben has a friend at the concert place and they were trying to find someone who would be popular to help after a year of no concerts.

something about when he screws up, Ben just jumps right in. They're laughing. "We'll let you do a show later!" (Clay to Ben)
 
Because You Loved Me!!
 
(DM is laughing in places - I wonder if Clay is making faces at her!)

Clay talking about the lights, the sound check earlier, it was hot. "Never did we have the good sense to go inside!" (I think the sun was in his eyes during sound check)
 
"We're not doing much from the third album - just one"
 
Something About Us
 
"purrrfectly purrrfect" (I love his pronunciation!)

"It's a Broadway audience, so we'll do at least one Broadway song" - promoting the Pittsburgh show next week (and tonight at 8:30!)
 
He doesn't have the lyrics - "Come to the 8 o'clock show, I'll get it right!"

"As long as the last note's big" .... That's what I did on Idol (mentions BOTW). "At the end of it there's this big. loud, high note, ... and Randy Jackson said "Man dog I didn't know you could hit that note" and literally 30 minutes earlier I sang this song, which hit that note":
 
THIS IS THE NIGHT!
 
(slower than we're used to hearing it, very sweet with just keyboard)

TITN (and yes, he hit that big loud high note!!)
 
"That song is still the devil!"
 
BOTW now!

That's it! DM and Dancerdad were discussing whether to try to stay for the next show, but I think feet were put down on that. The traffic was horrible. She'll tell us later what he looked like (we already saw at least one picture, right?) She said (in a disapproving tone of voice) that his hair was slicked back.

Before this one he sang "The Sun Going Down on Me."  Said that he was probably going to mess it up.  He did not mess up.  Made me weepy.
 
Now singing "Its Impossible."

Post by: Tiffany on July 15, 2021, 09:38:09 PM

"A Place For Us."  (he just called someone, (Ben) a "dumb shit" in fun, "said is that all I get?"  for not giving him enough chords to start the song.  He got some laughs.  He did it lovingly.

Saying that Randy Jackson was wrong when he said that Bridge Over Troubled Water was the highest note Clay had sung so far.  Clay said that some of the songs he sang on Idol had higher notes.

"Ease Your Mind"  He killed it!  Hit all the high notes!

Clay is encouraging people to attend and support the other artists performing in The Hamptons.

Well, just came to see what Miss Tiffany had posted about the concert and got a play by play!  Thanks Tiff, it's like you were there!  I'm not a fan of the slicked back hair either, think Dancer Mom said the same!
