Ashley and Erik’s Video Greeting to O-Town Fans Is Here!

(July 9, 2003) IO’s press crew told O-Town how much their fans appreciated seeing them at their recent shows, but also how disappointed some fans were that O-Town didn’t make it to their town or country this time around. We asked if it would be possible to get a video greeting from the guys for their fans. With O-Town’s Online Street Team on a break, the fans miss the messages they used to get from the guys via their Street Team. Our press crew was invited onto O-Town’s tour bus to videotape O-Town’s greeting for their fans after their show at Dewey Beach on June 29th. They wanted to thank everyone who came out to their shows this time around and say they are sorry that they missed seeing some you this time around, but they hope to see you next time around! Erik and Ashley, thank you for allowing us to tape your greeting and deliver it to your fans. Most artists would have declined to do an amateur video. Your unpretentiousness and desire to reach out to your fans are evident by your willingness to get your message out via this keepin’ it real video. Click here to see your greeting!
