Clay Aiken is a very talented entertainer and his first concert in 4 years was fantastic!!!
We have attended 3 of Clay's concerts since American Idol. Clay is a class act. Love his voice.
Clay Aiken's first concert in four years was suberb! Clay has such a voice range and it was wonderful to hear him sing so many holiday favorites and newer songs. Clay also has an outstanding stage presence, so down to earth and funny too! I took my mom to see the show and she loved it too!
As always, Clay was funny, clever, and in top voice. Backed up by an incredible orchestra and the amazing Ben Cohn, even the old Christmas standards seemed fresh and new. Another thing I love about Clay's shows is seeing those who have never been to one of his shows before. It's a joy I never tire of. You keep singing, Clay, and we'll keep coming back for more. <3
Clay was very interactive with the audience which made his expressive voice even warmer. Songs done in a new way and the traditional songs were awesome. His rendition of "Mary Did You Know" was outstanding and songs like "I'll Be Home For Christmas" were rich with meaning. All in all it was a concert worth seeing. I'll remember it for a long time.
Along with singing awesome Christmas Carols, Clay Aiken has a gift of humor and timing. I do believe he could do an hour of just comedy and take it on the road. I would, however, miss The Voice! He's that good.
This performance was something I was really looking forward to and Clay did not disappoint! I have seen his Christmas show before and it really puts you in the Christmas spirit. I have also attended many of his other performances and love to listen to his incredible and enjoy his interaction with the audience.
The venue allowed for Clay's magnificent voice to carry beautifully. He has got the greatest singing voice of anyone in this generation. He is also an incredible showman and entertainer, interacting with the audience wonderfully, very timely witty and humorous on stage. The Christmas show was fabulous. He did all of the Christmas songs we really want to hear and in his own Clay Aiken style that makes him stand out from all other performers. He didn't waste any time on stage singing obscure songs that would have been unfamiliar to the audience. His wardrobe changes throughout the show were classic and subtle, always resulting in a most professional, elegant appearance. I could have sat there for another 6 or so hours and enjoyed further this concert and performance from Clay Aiken. The audience also was never without a full house of enthusiastic applause.
Concert really put us in the Christmas spirit. His voice is truly amazing in person. There are no bad seats in this theater so nice to be able to see a performer so close up. The accoustics are wonderful also in this theater. Clay also adds humor to his show, he has a wonderful funny personality.
I really liked the theater. The views for any section were great as was the sound. Clay is multi-talented and I loved being able to see and hear him live.
Great show, always need a holiday show to get me in the spirit of Christmas and Clay did not disappoint. Many traditional songs, sung the way they were meant to be. Highly recommend this show! Booth seats are a real plus, Northern Lights Theater is fantastic setting for ANY show!!
Clay was an all around talent the other night. He sang MANY songs, talked with the audience. He has a great sense of humor and very likeable. He is mature on stage, classy, polite and a quick wit! Very enjoyable to watch and listen to....
Clay Aiken's show was unforgettable, mesmerizing, and beyond wonderful. His voice touches the soul in a way that makes the spirit feel peace, contentment, and inner joy. Clay sang all of his favorite holiday songs from when he was in the choir as a young boy. His feelings of love for and his connection with these songs is obvious as he every delivers emotion into the presentation. I sat in awe as I always do when hearing him sing, as if I were being a private concert. Once Clay begins to sing, it's as though there is no one else in the room; that is the power of his voice. The show included Clay and an orchestra, different from his previous "Joyful Noise" shows, which had back-up singers and an abundance of hoilday decorations. It was pure Clay! This new format was what the audience was there for; to hear Clay sing like no other can.
This was one of the most enjoyable concerts I've attended. I took my husband, daughter, and her boyfriend. All had a great time. It was a great mix of Christmas carols, standards, newer Christmas songs plus fun stage banter between Clay and the audience. He was backed by a live orchestra. The stage was beautifully lit. I highly recommend the show.
Clay Aiken's voice & performance absolutely stunning! The orchestra was great. Clay is always very sweet, funny & has the voice of an angel!! I flew in just for the concert & Meet & Greet--worth every moment of travel & every penny!!
I've been a fan of his since idol and have seen all his shows, even traveled to worcester civic center twice when he didn't come to boston. This show was great, his voice, his banter, the band was outstanding. My only complaint is that I was seated next to a drunk man that kept shouting and standing up saying "I'm Gay!" and crying.
I have seen all but one of his performances but enjoyed this the most. It was a smaller venue and less production, with no big special effects. But his interaction with the audience was fantastic. I didn't know he was such a character and so outward and honest. He had us in stitches a good part of the show. Loved the ending. I had the good fortune to be seated right where he came out into the audience and sang his last song. Overall loved the show and definately would see it again.
I have a big crush on clay and have since 2003...even though I am married, he is famous and single...I just think he is the cutest...not to mention his amazing voice...I took my mom to the show and she also loved it...
After not seeing Clay in concert for a few years it was great seeing him live again. The man has a spectacular voice and his XMAS show was absolutley fantastic. Thanks for getting my XMAS spirit going.
I bought the tickets for my wife who has always liked Clay and his singing. I ended up enjoying the show as much as my wife. He was tremendous. He connected with the audience and was very comfortable telling stories about himself and backgroud on some of the song selections. The Orchestra was a "10". 15-20 piece band that performed flawlessly.
