St. Louis, Mo. tonight and Des Moines, Ia. tomorrow

Hello everybody!!   Guess what???  It's only 85 degrees today where I am......Yay!!!  Finally, some cooler weather!!  I just checked St. Louis and the weather there is even better!!!!  It's a very nice 79 degrees.....oh my.....that's great news for the Casey fans who will be outside waiting to try and catch Casey before or after the show!!  When I was outside in Dallas, waiting for unknown hours, it was over 100 degrees and sweltering heat!!  Thank goodness they don't have to endure that kind of heat!!  I'm looking forward to some really good videos and pictures from my friends who are there today!!!  That will probably be on tomorrow's post though.  And as usual, when the Idols have a day off, I have a problem finding any news to post the next day, and this is one of those days......so yall, bear with me as I go trawling for whatever might be out there!  On these days sometimes I like to re-post the really good photos or banners, or videos worth a 2nd or 3rd look.  I will be heading out to find the 2nd half of Kimberly's recap from Portland!!  I know some of you are anxious to read the second half, including me!!
In the meantime, here's some Casey.....I mean....."Mr. Pretty" for yall!  I think this is a screen cap from a video, but if it's not.....I'm sorry.....



Whoever did this picture, thank you.....it's so nice.....and show's off his blue eyes so well!!!


I came across this while I was out looking around!!   It is a fantastic interview from blogcritics.org of Casey while in Sacramento, Ca. for the Tour stop there!!  This is awesome, and I love his long answers to most of the questions!!


"Casey Interview" 

Wow!!!  Casey is really getting down with the riffs in this shot!!  I think it's pretty obvious he is totally enjoying what he is doing!!  I love to watch he and Tim doing their little 'guitar wars' as I call it, on 'I got Mine'!!  I've also noticed that not one of their little 'wars' is the same, they are always different!!

Tanks to Gloria Kennedy for these 2 great shots!!!

Now I wanted to remind everybody about the Picaboo Book (Fans of Casey James) that's being put together by my friend Mickey!!  If you havn't gotten your picture in to her, please do so.  Her email is harleehun@yahoo.com She said she hasn't put a deadline on it, but about 2 weeks after the Tour is over is when she wanted to have it finished!  It's coming together so beautifully!!!  Here is the link to it, if you havn't seen it.

More to come later.......

BREAKING NEWS>>>>> Casey Hospitalized after show in St. Louis!


We got the news about 11:30 or so this evening that Casey had been taken to Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri after the Idols show ended at the Scottrade Center.  He was treated and released and will be fine!  No more details were available at this time, but that he would be fine and finishing the tour out!!  He's probably just tired and not resting good is running him down!  So everybody keep Casey in your prayers as he goes through these next few days!  Will update more when I know more!!

  1. Thanks Glenda, for everything! I love the pics and I love hearing Casey and Tim on "I Got Mine"! He does such a great job of interacting with the band and audience! When you take a beautiful, breath taking painting and shine a light on it, you just can't stop looking at it. That's the way I feel about the head shot pic of Casey. He is so beautiful and the light shines on him and from within him. I know I've said this before, but it makes you just want to stare at him, not for wrong reasons, but his very countenance ministers to me! Thanks again!! MAE777

  2. I can't believe that incredible shot with Tim - that's just awesome!
    That head shot is from one of my favorite interviews - leaving Sky Bar in Hollywood from PopCandies TV.

    If you're looking for a video that I don't believe you've put up, here's one very good and clear video from Mountain View of "I Got Mine"

  4. Well I just got home from the Idol show and Casey has got to be the most beautiful man I've ever seen. He is just an amazing performer and his guitar playing and singing were amazing. I went with my daughter who is a Lee Fan but now she is on the Casey train. Let me tell you that when I first saw him on stage he took my breath away. I did notice that when they all came on stage at the end singing My Life Would Suck Without you he was coughing and he didn't
    look like he was feeling well. When they came off the stage he passed in front of me and he was coughing again. I know he has sinus problems so maybe that's what was going on. I think he needs a good rest. I hope he is OK. I will try and get some pictures to you tomorrow Glenda. I think I got some good ones!! Casey is by far the best performer ever.

  5. I was at the St. Louis concert. I bragged all the way there to my friends how Casey would steal the show. The minute he hit the stage, I knew he was ill. His heart wasn't in it, he didn't engage with the audience, he didn't throw picks, he just was not himself. He kept coughing and was the first one to leave the stage after the finale. Everyone else in my group thought he was great but I knew it wasn't our Casey. As far as I know, he didn't come out before the show. There were fans all over the place tweeting him like crazy to come out so that was an indication to me that something was wrong (we can be so demanding as fans, can't we?) I couldn't wait to make the 1 1/2 hour trip home to get on twitter to see what was going on. My friends are still telling me I'm nuts. And sure enough, right there was Debra, deeply concerned for her boy because he had been taken to the hospital. Those of us who have watched every performance from the beginning of the tour online, know when our Casey is not up to par. This will be a long, grueling final week of the tour and I'll bet our idol doesn't let anyone down. He's got seven straight nights and I know he has the grit to finish it out. Let's just all pray for him. Karen Smith (kdsaa4 on twitter)

  7. So sorry to hear about Casey bein so sick he had to go to the hospital...hope they see that he gets the proper treatment & rest...this is a grueling tour and it takes a toll on even the healthiest kids...Casey hasn't been 100% well for months now, and allergies left untreated can develop into asthma and other more serious health issues...I sure do hope Casey will be able to finish the tour & then get some much needed r&r at home where his dear Momma can see that he gets the right care.

  8. So sorry to hear that Casey got sick. Good sign that he didn't have to stay at the hospital, but still hope he got effective treatment and gets some rest. Their schedule has got to be grueling and I marvel at how he keeps himself going on those days when he doesn't feel so well. We all know that he is NOT one to complain. I hope he gets well real soon. I will be saying some prayers for him and I know all his fans will do the same. The power of prayer is a wondrous thing, especially when a lot of people pray. I learned that when my daughter was seriously ill and she got better when so many people prayed for her. God bless Casey!

  9. I hope Casey is going to get the chance for some much needed rest. The poor guy is being run-ragged with that tour schedule (as are all the idols). I hope Casey knows his fans want him to take care of himself, rest when he can, and that we want him healthy as well as happy. Feel better soon, Casey.

  10. I was browsing the fan book and thought, what a great gift and beautiful thought for Casey. I'm so sad to hear Casey is sick again. I don't know how he keeps pushing himself when he is sick like that; he must be exhausted with it all. I'm sure every prayer for him and his own are extremely powerful especially when combined. Praying for your quick recovery Casey. Keep the faith.

  11. Hey Glenda, I just wanted to let you know that the upclose photo of Casey was done by Kiyomi Tamura from the CJCC. It was captured from a video interview. Beautiful, isn't it? Thanks for keeping us updated about Casey. He is so close to being home where he'll get the TLC he needs.

  12. When a person loses a lot of sleep it can affect them in a lot of ways. His immune system is probably affected. My prayers are with Casey while he tries to finish the tour. He really needs good sleep!!

  13. I hope Casey is feeling better and gets some must needed rest soon. I hope he can finish the tour and I will keep him in my prayers. When I saw that he wasn't feeling good last night I got worried so I didn't sleep very well. So Casey get well soon and take care.

  14. It will be a great day next week when he finally arrives home to Texas! Really hoping he will be feeling somewhat better tonight. Of course, it will be hard to tell...he's always got that beautiful smile on his face, no matter how bad he's feeling! Thanks for keeping us updated, Glenda!
