Great minds, Reg! I just did the EXACT same thing.
Odd. No posts before Clay Aiken entered Spamalot.
Strange. Nearly all posts about or related to Clay Aiken.
Curious. Obsessive details about Clay Aiken.
Why, one might come to the conclusion Mikers is an obsessive fan.

"Clay Aiken fans scare the bejeebus outta me."
I met a couple of really nice ones yesterday, but it would appear they're not the norm. I'm glad this creeper posted a warning that they'll be at this show in two weeks. I live in close proximity to this theater, so it's good to know what areas I should avoid in that time frame.

In the original post, I see disappointment from an audience member who has liked Clay Aiken in the past and felt this performance didn't show him to his best advantage. I see an articulate and informed audience member explaining exactly what she liked and didn't like and why.
Zero "hatred," zero trolling.
(And for the record, I saw Clay on "Idol," thought he had a spectacular voice, thought he was often shabbily treated by Simon, thought he should have won. I think he handled his coming out as well as anyone with his background suddenly thrust into the spotlight probably could. I haven't seen him onstage.)

Posted: 8/5/13 at 2:31pmThey take the term obsessive fan to a whole other level that makes my skin crawl.

Well, it's easy to see the hatred literally seeping from these words:
"Clay Aiken's portrayal of Joseph was more or less what I expected it to be. Vocally, I was actually less impressed than I expected to be. I've seen Clay in concert twice in the past, and this was underwhelming compared to those shows"
Oh god. Scathing. Verbal laceration, that is.

Why, Miss Aiken has a penchant for taking pics with her mouth open. Is she trying to tell us something?

Posted: 8/5/13 at 2:44pmYou're the one hounding this topic, ignoring anyone's valid points, calling people immature and trolls (and "hacker"...?).

Why do ALL of the trolls on this board resort to using the ROFL/LMAO at everything?
It's like they want to prove that they are totally insane. I picture them cackling to themselves in a basement somewhere...

I have heard some audio from the second 'preview' and thought his vocals were amazing. There is more to come so I will have a better idea later this week or so. He may be playing Joseph low key (from a different recap) but I heard him nailing the notes to the back wall. I am VERY aware of pitch and cracking. So far, he's on the money.

Posted: 8/5/13 at 2:55pmDaphne2, there was nothing wrong with his vocals- he hit the notes and was not pitchy. It was just strange that he (or the director, or whomever made the decision) decided to opt for such a high range for many of the songs. It's not something I've ever seen done in that show before, and I don't think it was necessarily a good choice. What he did, he did just fine. It was just uncomfortable.
