Some "new" photos of Clay singing "You Were There" at the 2004 North Carolina State Fair in Raleigh were posted to the Clayboard via Clayversity. More are up on the Clayboard thread, but you will need a Clayversity login to see bigger sized versions of the images.

• Update on Clay in NYC from the Clayboard - Clay was indeed in NYC at Radio City last week, as we reported on Saturday -

  Girls just had to pop in and tell you I got a call tonight from my neighbor Lynn. Her daughter just called her and told her to call me. She works in the Christmas Show in Radio City as an elf. (she is a little person) Well tonight they were at a studio doing something for the show and at the same time as her CLAY WAS THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She said they got to meet him. I'm so jealous of her but she know's I love Him so it was great she called to let me know. It was 8:30 p.m. our time and they we're all getting ready to leave. I'm guessing he was working on his new CD. SO OUR MAN IS IN NEW YORK
