Venue Change- July 4th Raleigh, NC 
Posted by Team Otto - Jul 02, 2008
Hey North Carolina Otto Fans-
We just wanted to be sure everyone is aware that James' performance on the 4th of July in Raleigh will be at the Longbranch Saloon, NOT the fairgrounds as previously advertised. Please be sure to check James' tour date page for more information on the show.
Happy 4th of July!

James is in Country Weekly magazine again! (smiles)
Taylor, Kelli, and Carrie are on the front of the issue and James is on pages 10 and 25. (smiles)
There is also a mention of him in the letters on page 12 (Thanks to me maybe and one other person.) and the song written by him named "In Color" done by Jamey Johnson is talked about on page 31. It says in there that Trace Adkins came close to singing the song. I wonder how him and James both would have sounded doing it. (smiles)
On page 10 James tells about what him and Amy Katherine like to watch on the tube. Its a show on the Show Time station called The Tudors. Since I don't get that station, I had never heard of the show before now. Does anyone here know what it is about? (puzzled)
On page 25, there is a shot of him in a tank top (squeals) during his performance in Enterprise, Alabama on June 7th. Tank tops are one of my weaknesses and yes James looks so good in one! (smiles)
God bless you and James always!!!

James and The Head
Post that picture of James and your head! LOL

I'm Gonna Pee My Pants....
I can't stop laughing! Can I say pee on here???
~ Michelle ~
OML! YES!
I remember you saying, you take the women's and I'll take the men's and we went and posted those all over the building! I was not going in the men's loo at all! I am glad you did though!! And I am certain James thought we were not normal in Detroit, he just didn't realize until then, how much so!!!! HA!! HA!! That is also the night we got our OTTO SHOW t-shirts!!!! We also met the soon-to-be Mrs. Otto!!!
I also remember I interviewed Cross Canadian Ragweed after the show and we met Shooter Jennings (who told me he wanted to name his first daughter after me!) and James had us in giggling fits, and you know why!!!! ROFLMAO, and then he wanted me to give them a copy of his Black Label CD, and we walked out to my car and I handed him the PINK one and he was like, "It's Pink!??" and I was like, "You think I am gonna ride around with something that valuable in my car where it could be stolen or scratched?!!! LOL
Then I had Grady Cross (of CCRW) take a photo of me and James!!! Grady was a tad tipsy and it is all blurred and it looks like James is posing with just my HEAD!!!!! And I showed James and he said, that is one of my favorite shots of us! Ummmm.....okay...! LOL
And remember meeting the CMT dude, who stepped on me, and I stepped on Tim Rushlow (formerly of Little Texas) and he had just had surgery on his foot!! And the CLOWN NOSE!!!!!! Remember the CLOWN NOSE!!!! OML!!!! I am in giggling fits now!! See, y'all started this!!!!! Now I am on a roll!!!

You Left Out
The best part, Dean Hall was tuning the guitars and James told him, look at all the flyers on the tables and Dean told him, "Oh yea, they're in the bathroom too"....I figured why not put them above the urinals, what else is there to do while your standing there?!?!? I think that James realized then that we weren't "normal"!!
~ Michelle ~
You Are Correct!
There was a sign that I felt that I needed....I can only prey that that CMT footage is gone like a freight train and will never surface! Let's see...what else have you dug up....

concert
Anyone attending the James Otto concert in Jefferson City Missouri at the Cole County Fair? If so send me a pm and those that are not going will wish they were :)
OH LAWD!
I'm gonna have to keep my eye out for ya'll in Louisville. LOL Never know what ya'll will get into. LOL
AWESOME!
I can't wait. Maybe I will see you there.
Brain Drain at times...LOL
We have been JOT-ing for so long now, we have many moments that just run together. The American Revolution Tour is one of them! We went to three shows in three days, and then flew to Reno for the fourth! We didn't know if we were coming or going!
We had some extra OTTO Flyers on hand from a show at the Exit Inn with the Dean Hall Band, so we stood outside and walked around passing them out. People were like Who Is OTTO?!! And of course, we told them!!!! The crowd was there to see B&R and Gretchen, but came away with a new appreciation for James!
And let's add Michelle and I are not a favorite of the Security Guards in Illinois! I got punched in the arm and she got shoved!!!! Another time where we saw PawPaw and Faye with the psycho girl! HA! HA!
Those were Great Times! Great Times!!!!!!
*~Vonna Rose~*
You guys...
You guys really crack me up!!! I'm gonna have a side ache by the end of the day if you keep this up! ROFLMAO!!! Every time I hear stories from you guys it makes me wanna meet you that much more! I think we need to track down that video footage -- could be worth a lot of money!
Wish I could be at Louisville with you guys -- maybe if I won the lottery, right Michelle??? We'll prolly have to wait until CMA Fest next year....until then, keep the stories coming! :)

It's all blended into one big JOT "For You"!! LOL
Michelle,
I am sitting here giggling because we ate at LJS in Terre Haute! You tried to steal some OTTO sign or something Mafia, I am not sure! LOL That is also where we met up with PawPaw and Faye remember??? They were with psycho girl?!!
Evansville was when we exchanged Christmas gifts and I gave you your Ottomaniac Hoodie! It's also where we screamed a lot in the bathroom and were drenched in the rainand James had us come on the bus while there were FILMING! YIKES!!!!! Wonder where that video footage is??!!!
And I cannot for the life of me recall where we laid our pretty little heads that night either! I keep thinking Red Roof Inn, but nothing is tooting a horn here today! LOL
I have plans to be with Michelle at Louisville, so watch out peeps!
*~Vonna Rose~*
ME TOO!
I also will be at the Louisville show. As far as Evansville, that was way too long ago for me. Seems like we ate at a Long John Silvers, but I don't remember where we slept.
~ Michelle ~
OH YEA!!!
I JUST FOUND OUT THAT I AM GOING TO BE HEADING UP TO LOUISVILLE, KY IN AUG TO SEE JAMES. I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED. I CAN'T WAIT!!!
Hotels?!!
I will have to check with Michelle as I am not certain where we stayed when we went to the American Revolution Tour back in '05!!! I am certain it was okay because I don't remember any tales of terror!! LOL
*~Vonna Rose~*

Welcome!!
Hey everyone, I have 13 more days until I get to see James at Whiskey River! I know since the fact he is with the Musik Mafia, it's gonna be a great show! I seen Big & Rich, Cowboy Troy, and Gretchen Wilson in concert in Beaumont and that was the best concert EVER!!!!! I know James will fit right in, everything's bigger in Texas, and being down here with us Rednecks makes it even better!! I can't wait to see the OTTO SHOW live, you can bet your (you know what :) ) I'll be right in front singing along to every word! He's a great guy with a huge heart and talent! He is a wonderful husband, and a devoted family man. He also loves his fans and would do anything for us, just like a member of the MM would do!! Keep up the great work James, you have a gift from God, and like many other people..... I hope you can stay awhile!! God bless you, your family, and the Musik Mafia always!!!

My 4th of July?
I had to be in bed early because I had to get up early the next morning, so I didn't get to do anything. It stormed here the night of the 4th anyways, just like on the day that I got to see James last month on the 11th. My mom and me had to drive right through it just to get to him, but the sweet hearted teddy bear was worth the risk of another lightning strike! (smiles)
God bless you and him always!!!
