A Little Pre-Kimmel Clack For Your Enjoyment

There's magic in the air tonight...excitement, chills, anticipation. Everyone is waiting for Jimmy Kimmel Live to start so they can see Clay and all the excitement that the show is bound to be filled with.

But while we are waiting, there is plenty of pre-Kimmel clack for you to enjoy. The Clayboard is in touch with many of the fans who are waiting in line. So for your reading pleasure, here are some high lights from The Clayboard Pre-Kimmel thread (Line reports start on Page 17). You might want to call this a Kimmelcert:

• She said they are lining them up double file. She said there are probably 100 people there now. Lots and lots of flower and balloon deliveries. She said they are coming in left and right...They asked someone at Virgin Record Store if they could play Clay for them once an hour and the guy who would handle that is not there but will be back shortly but the guy they spoke with said he didn't see why not.
• I just got a call from hotclay who is in line at Kimmel. She told me that they just delivered a heart shaped mattress!!
• Clayperfect said she is standing 3 feet from the bed. Two police officers are there now but they told CP that they don't why they've been called. A security guy told them they usually call law enforcement when they are going to be doing a skit out on the street....
• Concerning the heart-shaped mattress...yall will laugh at me, but my first thought was, "Okay, which fan group ordered that for Clay", and my second thought was, "Why didn't I think of that!"
• There was 60 bands given and 80 did not get bands. There was a lady there that flew in from Baltimore who didn't get a band and one fan was gonna give hers away to that lady and the lady denied such kindness. I mean how beautful is that?
• I just talked to my friend who is waiting for Kimmel. She said they are about 30th in line and they have their wristbands. She went down the line and asked people who had gotten wristbands and she estimates only 30 did not have wristbands yet. These people were told by Kimmel people that they have to wait to see how many VIPs show up before they know who can be admitted. So, there is some hope yet.
• People allowed in...80 were turned down, 75-80 VIP and those people who didn't get bands left already. No other news as of yet but one of the staff came out and gave a scare to the entire line by saying Clay canceled, everyone flipped out as you can imagine. They go in at 5:30 pst!
• Word from ellenpoppy in line. The security guard told them Clay's room is completely filled with flowers, balloons and presents. She (the guard) took a picture on her cell phone. She said Clay can't even get into the room to change clothes. Ellenpoppy suggested he change clothes on stage...
• I'm thinking that his dressing room is filled with more than the flowers, etc. It is filled with LOVE! Surely Clay can feel that love tonight. It just warms my heart. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to making this night so wonderful for Clay.
• Freakin gorgeous. Hair is cut shorter. Gave JKL a shirt with his pic on it!

Well, we are now closing in on time for Jimmy Kimmel Live to start. About 35 minutes here in Texas. Hope you enjoyed the pre-Kimmel clack. Now, I think we are ALL ready for the real thing!!
