Well, for those of you who haven't heard yet I am leaving for Canada this winter.  I'm working out at the winter Olympics in Vancouver Feb and Mar and I'm pretty stoked about it.  I've never really been to Canada except once when I was 19 just right across the border from Ann Arbor, MI.  Everyone tells me its gorgeous.  I guess the rest of this week will be dedicated to getting ready for that.  Leaving the country for this long I'm gonna have to really prepare.  I'm kinda bummed cuz I really didn't want to pay rent while I was gone for 2 months.  Its just $$ flying out the door but oh well.  I tried to get out of my lease but was unable to.  As far as bills I guess I'll have to pay them all up front or write post dated checks or something.  Not sure.  And then there's Wilson my dog, which I still haven't figured out what the heck I'm gonna do with him.  I originally had planned to leave him with my mom back in Texas but she said no so now I have  to go to plan B....whats plan B? lol All my friends rent with no backyards or have other pets.  Ok now i'm stressing....

Alot of people have been asking what I'm doing out there. Well, I'll be working with a bus company, assisting bus drivers and keeping them on schedule all day.  My GM at the diner got me the job and it worked out perfect since I'm technically laid off from the diner till April.  So I'll be back just in time for the season to pick up so if you were planning on coming to see me in Feb or Mar , I'm sorry I wont be there : (  I'm hoping that once I'm out there I can network and get a chance to sing the national anthem at one of the games!!!!  That would be awesome!!!

I'll keep you guys updated on my facebook and twitter as much as I can

Love you all and keep in touch!

Hello to all!

       In response to everyones messages about why I haven't vlogged recently, I am still alive and well! LOL!  NO! American Idol did not shut me down.  As you can see my vlogs are still up on youtube.  Very simply I have just been super busy these last few weeks and haven't been able to keep up.   When I first started the vlogs I had some downtime in my schedule. But now the season here in Branson is picking back up and I am very rarely home anymore.  So I apologize to everyone who has been waiting for more vlogs.  Honestly, its alot of work to watch the shows, not just once, but several times to refresh my memory on what I want to talk about.  And I like to do them for fun but to commit to doing them every week is seeming to be a bit more difficult than I thought.  So I apologize for not being able to keep up with it on a weekly basis.  I will try to do them when I can so if you've subscribed to my youtube channel just keep an eye out!  But daddy's gotta make a living.  Speaking of, I will be starting rehearsals for a new show coming to Branson that opens April 8th called "Hunka Hunka Burnin' Love" .  If you make your way out here please come see me at the American Songbook Theatre (formerly known as "Shake it up") on 165 and Green Mtn Drive.  Its a 7:30 show and dinner is served as well.  Love to see you all there.  And, of course, you can catch me still on select days at "Mels Hard Luck Diner" for lunch on the strip!  The St Patty's day concert was awesome tonight!!!!!  Really enjoyed meeting some new people out there. : ) 

Take care everyone and God Bless!

P.S.     Since Ricky is gone my votes for either Adam or Matt G!  I love Danny but I have a feeling he'll get the shock vote off and then the unshocking save from the judges....we'll see.  He's got a deal if he left tonight so it really doesn't matter what he does from this point on.  ok...thats my 2 cents!  Piece out y'all

Hello everyone!

       Just wanted to update you on everything.  I have finally finished production on "The Heart of Me" my new double disc.  My original plan was to have it out at the end of June and I want to apologize for the delay on it.  I have been in the studio working very hard to finish the album.  Casey Loveland, my producer, has been working very hard on the final mixes.  I've been working at the diner all day, and for awhile there I was hosting the AI show I told you all about at night and then going to the studio after that to record till the wee hours.  This schedule has definately taken its toll on my voice and sometimes I have had to cancel production due to voice problems and fatigue.  But I'm happy to say its all done!  We are now working on the artwork and graphic design for the cd, which btw, I have changed the front cover.  It will be different than the one advertised on my merchandise section but better!!!  So its almost done and then it will be sent off for duplication!  : ) yay!!!!!!!!!!  I'm so excited for you all to hear this.  I have placed some samples on my myspace artist profile at www.myspace.com/jasonyeagermusic So check them out!  I will have the rest up to listen to on my website shortly!!!  Again I want to apologize for the delay on this but I hope once you hear it you will say it was worth the wait!  Thank you all so much for the support and love!!!

God Bless,
Jason Yeager <><

ok so I had heard rumors about an American Idol show coming to Branson for months.  And now its official!!! www.thegrandpalace.com has ticket info. I was opening for Starship (formerly known as Jefferson Starship) on Friday at the Branson Landing and the producer of the show approached me when I got off and told me to call him about hosting the show!!!! : )  Its called America's Favorite Finalists!!!  Featuring a rotating cast of Top 12 Finalists from seasons 1-6.  Opening June 20-October 26th.  Opening night is this Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  For locals wanting to go, please visit me at the Hard Luck Diner next door.  I will still be performing there during the day.  And if you bring your receipt from the diner to the box office you can get $5.00 off any priced ticket!!!  Please come see me this summer!!!!!!  I'm very excited about it!!!!

Here's a picture of me,Luke Menard, Michael Johns, and your American Idol winner David Cook!!!!  The four of us met up in Hollywood week.  I actually met Luke a few months before Hollywood week.  I was performing in a show with his wife and she introduced me to him and mentioned that he was going to Omaha to audition.  I told him I just made the 1st round and was going back at the end of the week for my next round of auditions so we had no idea that we would get as far as we did!  Later Laura, (Luke's wife) called and said he made it to Hollywood!!!  I was so happy that I would know someone (kind of) out there.  What a coincidence?  I showed up in Hollywood week and checked into my hotel room.  My roommate had already checked in and his stuff was already moved in.  A few moments later the "Song-stealing-greasy-headed-douchebag" as he so lovingly became known to the four of us, (thanks to our wonderful friends at votefortheworst.com) lol!!!!!  We instantly became really good friends that whole week.  Dave flocked to us during that 1st day...we began talking and hanging and going out to eat.  We realized we had to all make the top 50 or it just wasn't going to be good.  Dave, Michael, and myself had all made it through the first cut straight thru to Thurs but Luke had to come back that Wednesday for one last chance to prove himself to the judges.  So the 3 of us sat around that entire Wednesday...there was a party for those of us who had made it thru to Thurs but we were just watching as contestants came out one by one.  They were made to walk thru the party in front of cameras while we were all celebrating our victory from yesterday.  It was really quite awkward.  We kept asking eachother "Have you seen Luke?"  "Did he make it?!"  Finally, Luke came out with a smile on his face and we all cheered!  : )  Safe for another day....ha ha  Well, we all met back up in Hollywood when they cut us from 50 to 24 and the pressure was much more intense.  This was the big cut.  We all four sat together and watched as each person went up the elevator and watched as each guy came down and we counted the spots left for each of us.  What were the odds that all four of us would make it into the final 24?!  And sure enough, after much tears and yelling "The Four Horsmen" persevered!!!  Ryan asked me if he could join the group.....I said "no"  ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!  It was really good to see them all again at the finale and the after party.  Things have certainly changed for Michael and Dave.  They are superstars now!!!!!!!  But I enjoyed the brief time we had together and I couldn't imagine going thru that whole experience without any of them.  Such talent....and I was so proud to say that I was apart of it.  : )
