ATTENTION UK FANS!
Many of you are aware the brothers taped an appearance on "An
Audience With Donny" in October. There have been TV trailers
mentioning their appearance - as well as several newspaper and
magazine interviews with Donny talking about this. The brothers did
not want to make the trip without giving notice to those of you in
the UK, but they were bound by contract to keep this appearance
under wraps for the "surprise" element on the show (even the media
wasn't notified that they were doing this). The brothers sincerely
appreciate the understanding of their UK fans, even though they are
aware there was great disappointment with this.
We are happy to announce, however, that the program is about to
air!
Saturday 23rd November
9.20 - 10.20pm
Station ITV1
Thank you for your understanding, and enjoy the program!

A STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF THE OSMOND BROTHERS
As most of you are aware, Wayne, Merrill and Jay recently made the decision to remove the Osmond Brothers' forum from osmond.com. Since this change, we've received several e-mails, and have heard quite a few comments.
To those of you who have shown your support for the brothers' decision, we thank you. However, we do understand there are some of you who are unhappy with this decision. While some of the comments made have been disappointing, everyone is certainly entitled to their feelings on this matter.
Anyone who has followed the Osmonds' careers, know they always go above and beyond for their fans. They love and care for all of you, and you'll not find many celebrities who take such an active part in personally contributing to their websites. They work closely with their staff to be sure the latest information is made available, that photos of current events are shared, they answer your questions, occasionally make special items available through silent auctions, and even have contribution from their children when possible. All of these things, and so much more, are done in an attempt to make everyone feel "connected" in the most positive way.
The brothers felt their forum was no longer an uplifting and positive aspect to the site, and though the decision was a hard one, it was one they felt had to be made. We ask that you take just a moment to reflect on the wonderful memories you have as a fan of the Osmonds, and hope that everyone will be able to come to support this decision.

In December, the brothers had a Fireside at the Ft. Myers, Florida Stake, per the invitation of Troy Dunn.

Yes, Troy Dunn will be opening for the brothers at their Panama City Beach, FL, shows February 16, as well as in Silver Springs, FL, February 17. For those of you who aren't familiar with Troy Dunn, here is a little background on him:
Troy Dunn holds the record as the Number One national talk show guest in America! With more than 150 national TV appearances each year for over a decade, Troy has been seen frequently on Good Morning America, Sally J. Raphael, CBS This Morning, Extra and dozens of others!
His sell-out family comedy tour in 2001 (“Troy Dunn Live”) placed him “on the map” as one of the funniest clean comics in the U.S.A. His 2002 tour is already booked solid and new cities are being added every week! Troy has just released his first full-length comedy CD and video which was recorded live in Los Angeles, California during the 2001 Tour, and will be available at the brothers' shows in Panama City Beach and Silver Springs, FL.
The brothers are looking forward to a FUN time with Troy opening these Florida shows!

Things are getting exciting in Utah – and it isn’t just the Olympics causing the stir! The Osmond Brothers are making several appearances tied in with their upcoming performances at The Barn at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi, Utah.
Tomorrow, February 7, Wayne, Jay, and David will appear on the local morning news shows for channels 4 and 13. Their spots will probably be airing sometime between 7:00 and 8:00 AM MST.
Friday, February 8, Wayne will be interviewed by radio stations KUBL 93.3 (which will be taped at 9:30 AM MST), and KOSY 106.5 at 10:30 AM MST. We believe the KOSY interview will be aired live – but keep an ear out for more details from these stations as to when they will be airing their interviews with Wayne.
In addition, the Deseret News will be interviewing Wayne and Jay tomorrow morning, with the piece running in their Sunday edition.
Besides all of this Utah hoopla...Wayne will be doing some interviews
tying in with the brothers' upcoming Florida concerts February 16, 17
& 18. The Ocala Star Banner will be interviewing Wayne on Monday,
and this will be spotlighting their February 17th Silver Springs
appearance. Keep an eye out for that piece to run in the Ocala Star
Banner soon.
Also, Friday, February 15, the Panama News Herald will be running a
piece on the brothers, with a photo. Wayne will be doing that
interview tomorrow.
Thursday, February 14th, all three brothers will be interviewed by
Kids TV USA at Thanksgiving Point. We'll keep you updated on when
that program will be aired.

AMERICAN FORK APPEARANCE
The Osmond Brothers have been invited to attend an event at the Gene Harvey Chevrolet dealership in American Fork, Utah. The event involves the signing of the Corvette pacecar that has been going through the cities along the Torch Relay route for the Olympics. This Corvette has been autographed by celebrities and dignitaries in all of these cities, and will eventually be auctioned off to benefit the Make A Wish Foundation. Wayne and Jay will be on hand for this event in American Fork on February 5th, at 9:00 AM. Merrill is going to try to run by to sign the car, but he does have a previous commitment which will prevent him from being able to join his brothers at 9:00 AM. This event sounds like it will be a lot of fun!
MARCUS OSMOND'S NEW WEBPAGE
Jay's youngest boy, Marcus (age 6) now has his own webpage! He's very excited, and we hope everyone will stop by to take a peek. Jay's boys will have some precious drawings on the brothers' Silent Auction page in the near future. We'll keep everyone posted about the auction on this news page, and the osbros e-mail list.

A MESSAGE FROM THE BROTHERS
When the brothers had to cancel their shows in Branson November 14 & 15, good friend Tony Orlando stepped in and performed the 2:00 and 8:00 shows both days. Tony’s performances were wonderful, and he took a moment during his shows to mention Mother Osmond and ask the audience to pray for her. In addition, Tony incorporated the brothers’ cast into his show, so they were able to keep working during the brothers’ absence. The brothers are extremely appreciative of Tony’s friendship, and willingness to help out during this trying time.
The brothers returned to the Osmond Family Theater stage Friday, November 16, and were warmly welcomed back to Branson after their quick trip home to Utah to be with their family. They are very touched by the many prayers that have been felt by the entire family. The brothers send their thanks for these wonderful messages of support and prayer, and ask everyone to continue to join them in praying for their dear mother.
JAY
Jay has a new message on his "Notes From Jay" webpage.
