Yeah, I've never thought he was gay. BTW, I'm reading his book right now. Good thing he can sing; he'd starve as a writer. :-) The guy had a real crap childhood as far as fathers go. Birth father was a drunk who basically had nothing to do with him, and the stepfather who came into the picture later did things I can't fathom doing to a child. The stepfather would trash Clay's room just to make him clean it up. Put stink bombs under the bed and then raise hell about the room being a foul-smelling mess. Invite "the whole family" for a ride in the new car, then say, "Oh, not you" as everyone else is piling in. Unreal. As Clay put it, "I really was the red-headed stepchild."

Good singer, down-to-earth personality. Hes alright.
