Columbus Crowd Estimated at 12,000 to 14,000
Columbus welcomed Clay with open arms! Venue staff estimated the crowd at the Chemical Abstract Service to be around 12,000 to 14,000. WOW!
The Columbus Dispatch gave the concert a thumbs up in their review:
Aiken, the American Idol runner-up turned adult-pop star, headlined the Columbus Symphony Orchestra's Picnic with the Pops program last night.
His audience is mostly women; his singing is polished, and his attitude is upbeat. He exudes sincerity and earnestness, but, like so many pop singers, he lacks compelling originality.
One of Aiken's endearing traits is his gently self-depreciating humor.
"We have more gentlemen in the audience than we usually have," he observed. "Either the women in Columbus are strong-willed, or the alcohol tab is very high for the men here."
Aiken's strongest moment was his performance of Lover All Alone, for which he wrote the lyrics.

I was in Columbus,and I was totally amazed by how many people were at the buses! I truly think Clay gained some new fans that night! He was superb, spot on, and snarky as ever. If you have yet to see Clay, you have GOT to find a way to go and see him. He was drop dead GORGEOUS!
