Tampa Bay Added to Clay's Tour Cities

Great news for you Florida fans! According to info from The Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center website, Clay will be performing with a 42-piece orchestra on Friday, August 17, at 8 p.m., at Carol Morsani Hall. Not only is this great news for Florida fans, but its great news for everyone, because apparently Team Clay is still adding cities to the ever-growing summer tour concert list.

In its announcement of Clay's performance in Tampa Bay, the TBPAC website had some great things to say about Clay:

As the runner-up to FOX TV's second American Idol, Clay Aiken wowed television audiences in 2003 with his Southern charm, sweet demeanor and bright, glorious voice. Originally from Raleigh, N.C., Aiken released his debut album The Measure of a Man at 25 in October of 2003. The Measure of a Man sold 613,000 copies and went to number one on Billboard's Top 200 during its first week of release. His first holiday effort, Merry Christmas with Love, followed in November 2004, debuting at number one on Billboard's Top Holiday Albums chart, giving it the biggest debut week sales figures for a Christmas album in SoundScan history. He released A Thousand Different Ways in September 2006.

Tickets go on sale to donors on Wednesday, May 23, at noon, and to the general public on Friday, May 25, at noon. Ticket prices are $75.50 and $55.50, not including service charges.

Get those fingers ready to dial or rattle a keyboard, Florida fans. Ticket stress is just around the corner for you!
