Watching Casey play pool

I posted links to photos you can copy & paste. I am still learning! The one Jewel Boone posted on facebook in photos is much better focus. I will keep trying to improve this.




How do you like my avatar?



That is me sitting on a stool in the background. Looking down at my camera. Casey was playing pool with his bandmates.

copy & paste this in the search bar to see where I was sitting nearby while Casey played pool. He had finished playing on stage and greeting fans for a while. He was approached by fans quite a few times for photos etc between turns. But he got to play a good bit of pool. about 11:15 pm he quit. Then he and Todd walked back into the crowd and disappeared. I took Janice and Artist back to their Inn & drove back to my parent's home about 30 miles away.

kiss posted 2 interviews . the first talks about Casey James gambling style
Casey says "I don't drink"
He goes on to say that he gambled a little bit but doesn't consider it to even be gambling, because he is not trying to make money. He just uses the $100 bucks and when it's used, he's gone.

Casey James at the ACM awards weekend in Vegas

Casey played on Friday on an outdoor stage at the first ever Fan Jam for 6 songs
There were photos in a green v neck teeshirt and the blue plaid shirt
Soundcheck was real good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVfR1gQqx_M  Let's Don't Call It a Night

while there in Las Vegas, he gambled a little bit and talked about it
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8U-QTgc9J8&NR=1

Casey had a 1 second appearance seen on Youtube on the red carpet
He had his photo taken wearing the dark blazer and a violet shirt (Very similar/Same as he wore to sing Blue Skies)
Casey attended the awards program
There was an after party. He performed Liza Jane and Let's Dont Call It a Night one cover and one original

There was an audio feed which was very bad quality, just good enough to identify what he sang.25 people were on the conference call for about 45 minutes, also chatting online through the CaseyJamesBlog link.

Again Shari and Cindy were thanked for their keeping us connected
Casey had an interview and talked about his great fans
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ir1-hDLHNEUHad an interview with Kiss99 about songs he liked (If I Die Young)

I listened to Bulletproof from 5 youtube videos from different concerts. Seems he changed it up a bit now & then.

 "My name is Casey James and I'm going to play y'all some songs tonight"

Bulletproof

*drumbeat, guitar lead*

I'm on the hoof
I'm on the loose
Feel like honkin'
like a long necked goose
Look at me baby
I'm feelin' like I'm
bulletproof!
Crank it up
get into town           or to hit the town     head into town  

I know the best little honky tonk
for miles around
That's the truth Lord
I'm feelin like I'm
bulletproof!!!                             

I want to be there
in that crowd;
I want the music
up way too loud.
i want to juke joint jump
and rock n roll
to the end of the night babe.
Don't try to stop me                   
(Bloomington he did second ending both times, replacing don't try to stop me...)
It ain't no use
there ain't no tellin
what I'm gonna do
Can't you see honey
I'm feelin like I'm bulletproof  
                     

(honky tonk piano & electric guitars interlude with steady drumbeat)   1:00 -1:25

I want to be there
in that crowd
I want the music
up way too loud
i want to juke joint jumpin
and rock n roll
to the end of the night   (YEAH)
I can't stop
I can't quit
I'm like a stick of dynamite
and my fuse is lit
Can't you see babe or Can you hear me (ARK) Can you see me (Bloomington)
I'm feelin like I'm
bulletproof
yeah yeah babe
I'm feelin like I'm
bulletproof!!

Can you hear me (ARK)
or yeah yeah (KC)
I'm feelin like I'm
bulletproof!!!!     
       
Another fan gave me this feedback. This is from @ncountrygrl from MN whom I spent time with at the KC show last week:
the best I can make out of that one line is:

"I wanna Juke-jumpin', drivin', rock and roll
 til the end of the night, babe"

Delbert has songs about Juke-joints, but I can't make it into that at all. Maybe juke-jumping is the same as what we Northerners call bar-hopping?  (Oh, I think so--I just found an old song called "Juke-Joint Jumping"
I thought that was right so I added it to the lyrics. Another thought she had was that the first line is "I'm off the hook" I don't think that is correct. Do you hear him sing that? I believe he is using the slang term " I'm on the hoof" which is "on foot" Idiom Dictionary defines it this way:
on the hoof 
1. (British & Australian) if you make a decision on the hoof, you make it quickly to react to a situation which is happening, and do not have time to think about it carefully I don't want to make a decision on the hoof -- I need to give this some thought.
2. (British & Australian) if you do something on the hoof, you do it while you are walking around doing other things He's so busy, he usually has lunch on the hoof.
 
Casey loves to have fun! He will go where the action is!
