Tried & True Sets Miami Opening
The overture is about to start,
You cross your fingers and hold your heart,
It's curtain time and away we go,
Another op'nin', another show!
Cole Porter's lyrics from Kiss Me Kate depict the heightened excitement among Clay Aiken fans everywhere as the curtain call approaches for the opening of the singer's Tried & True Tour at 7:30 p.m. tonight in Miami's Arsht Center.
The much-anticipated 22-city tour begins with a three-fer in Florida, proceeding to Houston for a special Valentine's performance before winding its way to East Coast, Midwest, and western dates.
In support of the Clay's latest release with Decca Records, the Tried & True Tour will feature songs from the album, as well as favorites from previous CD's and the singer's entertaining penchant for bantering with audiences.
Since 2003, Clay has released six albums with RCA and Decca. His national tours have hit double digits, many of which are captured in this graphic by Fountaindawg.

Just hours before the concert, fans can only surmise the set list, but Tried & True favorites like "What Kind of Fool Am I?," "Mack the Knife," "Suspicious Minds," "Unchained Melody," are sure to to be among the songs featured on the winter tour.
Spotlighted in a PBS Special by the same name, Tried & True classics from the 1950s and 1960s showcase Clay's powerful tenor voice and interpretive skills. Songs from the CD and DVD of the live PBS concert can be sampled at Amazon and in the preview video by LovesClaysVoice below.
