Hundreds of women woke up with Clay on their minds Friday morning.

Clay will take center stage Friday night at Cary's Koka Booth Ampitheatre at Regency Park.

More than 300 Raleigh Claymates gathered at the Sheraton RTP Hotel and Convention Center on Friday morning.

It's the latest stop for Clay's "Juke Box Tour" which includes songs from several decades.

Fans say Claymania reminds them of the fan following of another rock-n-roll legend.

"I was a huge Elvis fan back in my day and I'm in my second childhood," said Canadian Clay Aiken fan Darla Steinke. "It’s like fandom all over again."

A silent auction was also held at the door. The proceeds go toward the Bubel-Aiken Foundation.
