Josh's first concert...

A backstage exclusive from Josh's recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.



And it looks like the boys from NKOTB (or their people) saw it after the Tonight Show posted it on Twitter. Their response is below the original tweet.

Random Josh (2014 edition)...

I'm always excited when I see something relating to Josh in a random and unexpected place. Today was one of those moments - while watching footage of Prince Harry sending his first tweet to raise awareness for the Invictus Games, a Paralympic-style games for injured service men and women that's modeled on the US's Warrior Games, I noticed a familiar logo on the @InvictusLondon twitter account that was on a screen the background of the announcement.


Yes, at the top of the "Who To Follow" recommendation is "Grobanites for Charity".  If you don't already do so, you can follow them at @gfctweets.

Josh on Mornings (Australia) Interview & Performance...


Watch the interview and performance here. (Sorry, but there's no link to embed the clip in this post.)

Josh on Sunrise (Australia)...




You can also watch the clip here which I'm hoping it's not region blocked.

05 April, 2013

Not long until the tour starts...


Ruslan (Josh's pianist) posted this video of the cupcakes.

14 October, 2012

New album...

Well folks, it looks like this new album is actually happening and we won't have to wait 4 years like we did for Illuminations.

Josh had the album cover photoshoot yesterday; and just tweeted this... (Seriously, can this man be anymore adorable?)


16 May, 2012

Sweeney...

This is just the cutest thing...



29 February, 2012

I love a good surprise...

I wonder what Tony & Josh have in store for us...



03 February, 2012

Back in the studio (2)...

From Josh's twitter updates, it looks like things are progressing with work on the new album. While there's been no hints as to the direction of the album, the producer or any other tidbits, it's great to see him back in the studio.

10 January, 2012

Back in the studio...

Yes, you are reading correctly.  Josh is back in the studio.  Of course, it still could be 4 years until we hear any new music, but I'm hopeful we'll get the new album without the 4 year wait we had for "Illuminations".

Josh's tweeted about his excitement of going back to the studio.


This particular tweet saw Josh receive a large number of suggestions, including a number that Josh retweeted including:

RT @SawyerGB: @joshgroban a radio comedy set in 1959 in Wales!

RT @Dracholos: @joshgroban Bacon. Record bacon.

RT @Symphanie_: @joshgroban Andrea bocceli's spaghetti commercial song, you know the one?

RT @theleslie: @joshgroban YOUR FACE. That's right. Find a way.

RT @adimike55: @joshgroban Record something to get our minds off of the damn Mayans. They are threatening to ruin baseball with their silly calendar.

Then he tweeted:


And finally:

Double Dream Hands...

Way back on Jan 29, Josh tweeted the following:


And this was the link:


Double Dream Hands responded:


So it was a dream come true for Josh when he met "Double Dream Hands" while on tour in Columbus.  First at a steakhouse:


And then, during his Columbus show this happened:


Here's another video that shows what happened before John joined josh on stage:


After the show, John (aka Double Dram Hands) then tweeted:


And finally, Josh tweeted:


How fantastic!!! And to get Groban to 'dance' on stage, well @DblDreamHnds needs to be congratulated. I'm sure this will go down as one of the top 10 moments in Grobania folklore.

Josh on a train...

Josh has been having fun on his train journey from NYC to Washington DC on his way to perform at "A Capitol Fourth" - part of a PBS celebration for Independence Day celebrations on the 4th of July.



And according to DCCelebrity on Twitter - Josh has been spotted arriving at Union Station.

Joining Chris Botti on Stage...

And on Thursday night (23 June) Josh joined his good friend Chris Botti on stage at the Beacon Theatre in New York to sing "Broken Vow".

This pic of Josh leaving the Theatre thanks to Twitter user @dodoNYC


Thanks to Twitter user @kimjonie you can watch a video here.

And it certainly seem like Josh has been enjoying his mini-break, as he also was able to take the time to see the Tony Award Winning "Book of Mormon" Musical on Broadway.

07 June, 2011

Cancellation of Greenville Concert...

The Twitter accounts of both Live Nation Carolina and the BiloCenter have announced that Josh's concert in Greenville (June 7th) has been cancelled due to illness.

A further (unconfirmed) report is saying that it is due to food poisoning and Josh is under doctor's orders to refrain from performing. (Source)

I really feel so sorry for the fans that will be disappointed by this news, but I think we all know that it must be pretty serious for Josh to cancel.

Get well soon Josh!

08 May, 2011

It's nearly time...

Josh has arrived in NOLA (New Orleans, Louisiana). The tour is getting close!!! Let the excitement begin!


20 March, 2011

Josh in Japan...

Back in January, Josh was in Japan to promote "Illuminations".  His trip included a performance of "You Raise Me Up" that featured Shizuka Arakawa - an Olympic Gold medalist in figure skating at the Tokyo Midtown Citi Ice Rink.  At this event, Josh also performed "Hidden Away" while playing a piano on the ice.  He also treated his Japanese fans to a "Before We Begin" concert at the Nihonbashi Mitsui Hall .

Here's a great clip that shows the performances from the Ice Rink as well as some vision from the BWB concert.  A big thanks to the fan who posted this.


I'm sure everyone's thoughts are with Japan as they come to terms with the tragic events of the recent earthquake and tsunami.

Get tweeting (Part 2)...

I deleted my original post as there was confusion about what this is all about, so I've added some more detailed instructions which I hope make it a little clearer for everyone out there.

If you're on Twitter and update your status to include Josh Groban in your tweet, your Twitter avatar will be included in on Josh's wall of tweets on the opening splash page of his website.


HOW DO I DO THIS?
Actually, it's even easier than I originally thought, all you need to do is submit a tweet with the words "Josh Groban" or even just plain old "Groban" in it.  Easy...  Then check out the splash page here.

(Just to be clear - this post isn't asking to leave your tweets in the comments section.  Instead just tweet the words Josh Groban in any tweet and they will show up.)

So get tweeting and spread the Josh.
