Clay Aiken makes 'Joyful Noise' during holiday tour
Singer Clay Aiken has laid out plans for his second-annual holiday outing, dubbed the "Joyful Noise Tour."
The two-month run kicks off Nov. 2 with a lone Canadian date, then canvasses the U.S. through the end of the year. Tickets for several stops are on sale now, and those for a number of others are scheduled to hit the box office this coming weekend. Details are included in the itinerary below.
Members of Aiken's official fan club have access to online pre-sales. More information is posted at the club's website.
Aside from the itinerary, details about this year's "Joyful Noise Tour" production have not been announced.
During his inaugural "Joyful Noise Tour"--which launched a few days after the Nov. 16, 2004 release of his holiday album, "Merry Christmas with Love"--Aiken limited the setlist to Christmas songs.
"Merry Christmas with Love," Aiken's most recent set, followed his 2003 solo debut, "Measure of a Man," which entered The Billboard 200 album chart at No. 1 and spawned 2003's top-selling single, "This Is the Night," as well as the hit "The Way."
