Casey James back in Texas....an interview, CMA fest and more...

Well hello again everybody!!  I see there's quite a bit of voting going on at the sidebar here!!  Thanks to all who have been voting, and it's quite clear who the winner is gonna be, taking nearly 50% of the votes is, "Drive"!!  I do think that is an excellent choice for his 1st single, although.....and this may sound strange.....it is not my favorite song....or second favorite....maybe third. :)  But it just makes sense to release that one with summer coming on and all!!  But which ever one they decide to release....or they may go with a completely different one, one we've not heard, but I just know it will do very well for Casey.... Especially having US as fans..... lol!!  It's gonna be fun!!!

Well, it looks as though 'Mr. Pretty'....(*I* love* that*) is back in Texas.....or was, he may be gone now, I don't know.  He showed up Sunday night unannounced at  The Key's Lounge
and set in with Mace Maben, the Mabenettes, and Group Therapy!!   I never seem to get the call when he's in town....oh well, I was waaaaayyyy to busy to make a trip to Ft. Worth anyway.....*fans self*..... lol....NOT!!  I would've been there in a heartbeat!  But thats ok, I'll catch him someday....I'm not gonna fret it!  It'll happen when it happens! :)  He's probably catching up with family, friends and all anyway.  I know Casey is good friends with those he played with Sunday night, so we know he caught up with some of his friends....and I couldn't be more pleased!!  And of course most of you know about his precious PaPaw being sick with the cancer.   I'm sure he got to visit him while he was in town.  Bless his heart, he runs himself ragged when he's out and about, and I'm sure he's not getting enough rest, seeing as he played the ACM Fan Jam on 1 hour of sleep.....yea.....thats what I thought.....he really needs to try to get more rest, or this business is gonna make an old man out of him quick!!  But I bet he'll still have beautiful blonde wavy hair!!  :) hehe....

Here's a picture of Casey at the Key's Sunday night.  Thanks to the Key's Lounge for this awesome picture! From L to R
  Bobby Counts, Casey, and Tone Sommer




Shari Geller is doing something quite fun on her blog.....she's got a Map of Casey James Fans!  All you have to do is add where you are from and your in!!  It's so fun to see Casey has fans all over the world!  Thanks Shari, this was a great idea!!  To add yours go to:

 Map of Casey's Fans

Also, there was another interview from Las Vegas that popped up!  Linda Lee of Detroits Country radio 99.5 WYCD says she discovered a 'dirty little secret' about Casey!  Now before you all get in an uproar....it's not what you think....and although it's just audio, I dare you to not get a kick out of Casey's humor on this!!!  I'm just gonna link the page below and click and scroll down to the audio to listen!!


Audio Interview from Las Vegas



Now, I found a few more of those professional shots from Vegas, so I just have to post them for yall!!  Enjoy!!


This is another shot from the Red Carpet.....yowza!!!  Looking  good there Casey!!!
But I didn't realize his beard was that thick!! :)

And what about this one.....


And these.....






It's obvious he was doing an interview, I guess with the ACM people, thats what the Mic says.  I also don't know if these are screen caps or somebody's professional pictures, but.....whoever owns these, Thank You and I'm giving you credit now!

Ok, it's about time to start talking about CMA fest in Nashville again.  Alot of you may already know, but it is the biggest thing to happen to Nashville every June!  There are around 400 Country Stars who play the CMA fest somewhere on some stage on one of the Music Packed 4 days!  There's bound to be somebody that rocks your world!!  There's a lot of Casey fans making their plans, buying their 4 day ticket, booking flights and rental cars, and hotels!!  It's going to be a 'Great Big Casey fest'!!!  (*I just made that up, lol....  :D  lol....*) If any of you are planning to go, please leave me a comment, in the comment section below, or a message on my facebook page, so I can add you to the list.  We need to get a good idea of how many are coming, because we are going to get together for a Fan Party!  So we need to get a count of everybody and their phone # if possible.  But don't put your # here in the comments, you can send me a message on FB or twitter privately.  It would be a good idea to have everybody's # so we can make sure everybody gets to the right place at the right time!  In case someone doesn't know who my other aka's are.....on Facebook, I'm just me....Glenda Vaughn Jordon and on twitter I'm CEJTxGal.  So yall get in touch with me, so we can get this list going!!
For those of you who want to purchase a CMA fest ticket and join us, click on the link below!

Also, if anyone has any questions, you can comment here or on Facebook or twitter and I will get back with you ASAP!!!  We want as many Casey Fans as possible to show up and be a part of something that is going to be awesome for all of us!!
And I wanted to sneak this in at the end.....GAC, while in Vegas for the ACM's got a fantastic picture of Casey, and it's on their page!!!   So just click the link below....and get ready to be WOWED!!  Some of the comments are awesome as well!!!  :)
I've had a bit of a battle with allergies this week, and have not been feeling worth a flip!  But finally I was feeling a bit better today, and got out of the house to do some shopping!  But it's not gone yet..... I'm starting to sneeze again....ugh.....so yall take care, and remember to let me know if you are going to CMA fest!!
Until then......

  1. Done Made Up My Mind
    not good at leavin
    never good at gone
    always left it way too nice
    don't plan on makin that mistake again
    ain't nothin like a bad goodbye

    every bridge behind me burnin down
    ain't no use in turnin around
    ain't no goin back this time
    well I done made up my mind

    don't need no voices tellin me I'm wrong
    only voice I'm hearin is my own
    fire in my rearview future up ahead
    all I gotta do is get gone

    every bridge behind me burnin down
    gone too far for turnin around
    ain't no goin back this time
    well I done made up my mind

    every bridge behind me burnin down
    gone too far for turnin around
    ain't no goin back this time
    I can't stay and walk that line
    I can't stay and walk that line
    every bridge behind me burnin down
    come too far for turnin around
    ain't no goin back this time
    well I done made up my mind

  2. This is such a great song!! I'm sure these words have a personal meaning to Casey but each one of us can relate to it in our own lives. That's what makes a great songwriter! I read somewhere that Lets Dont call it a Night was a pick up song. Why can't it be a married couple that was able to carve some time out for themselves? Again, a great song that each person can relate to their own lives.

  3. Well, Thanks for the words to "Done Made up my mind, although it has nothing to do with this post...I appreciate it, because I've been getting the words put down myself to some of the songs.....so thanks!! :)

  4. Hi Glenda, I realize the words to a song don't have anything to do with what was posted in your piece for the day but this is the one place I can post anonymously which I prefer to do. Thanks for all the time and love you pour into Caseymania. I look forward to each new posting!

  5. Awww man I hate you missed Casey at the Keys! But... there will be plenty more opportunities I'm sure, since you're a Texas native! :) Thanks again for all you do, I love reading all the write ups and the pics are fantastic! If I ever get behind on my "Casey News" I know where to come to catch up on everything!

    Hope you're feeling better, we need our Casey updates.... thanks you so much! :)

  6. haha... thank you Anon 4:05...I found it amusing that the words were there, and I thought....did I say something about needing those words, and just forgot it?? I was smiling as I was reading them, thank you so much, because I couldn't figure those words out at all!!! Feel free to post any way you want here, and say anything you want! Thank you for noticing my love of this site, and thanks for being a reader....I appreciate ya!!

    @Jan Thanks hunny!! So glad you enjoyed it!! Yea, I wouldn't have bothered him anyway, because I found out he was there to visit with Mace because the cancer has come back, and he has decided not to fight it any longer!! So I guess his days are numbered....That is so sad, and Ft. Worth is going to lose a very talented blues musician. So so sad.... and, also heard PaPaw is not doing very well either. So, this would have been a bad time to want a visit with him, I do totally respect his privacy. But, the timing will be right one day, and I'll get to visit him up there somewhere. I'm just being patient....because it is a virtue! :)

  8. Well I am so glad to see some words to that song, I love that rocking song, it is so great. And Casey looks absolutely scrumptious with that beard, love that handsome man, he has such wonderful features. Guess he broke down and washed his hair and pulled it back for that important event. Those eyes.

  9. I am a new casey fan and LOVE love love this site you've made. so wonderful and what an amazing man that Casey is. I am on the other side of the world it seems (vermont) but would love to see that beautiful man perform. Does anyone know if he has a girlfriend or is married;) It looks like a wedding ring on his right hand and I know him and his ex-wife are great friends. just didn't know if there was someone else in his life at the moment? I'd love to know more about him and his life but info is sparse on him. Found the burn the media site, really great too! Thank you again for all you do, so much time and love has gone into making this blog for everyone to enjoy. Thanks again.

  11. Thanks ladies!! I really appreciate it!!! @Jaden, no Casey is not married except to his music, and that is his #1 love at this time in his life! I don't even think he dates...because he is just so busy right now, there literally is just no time for a lady in his life. But he has said many times that he wants a family and I'm sure he will pursue that after his career takes off and is more of an established artist! I have a Bio at the top about Casey, it says "ABOUT CASEY JAMES"....but if you have any questions, well, I know just about every thing a person would want to know about him....so just ask me, I probably know the answer! :) Thank you for joining us here at Caseymania, so glad to have you aboard the Casey Train!!! :D Pass the word about this site and lets get more fans!!! Thanks again!!

  13. You have to remember.. what ever song Casey comes out with has to beable to cross over to all peoples so its a hugh hit... Just a few thousand buying a record doesnt make a star.. Casey is my Favorite... Im hopeing the people who he is working with help him choose the correct song that catches in the heart and stays.. Im not feeling that Drive is the song to do that.. Im thinking Lets dont call it a nite.. But I dont know.. Im a fan and LOVE all of his music... I saw it when he was in Den and knew he had it all... Now its up to him..
