I want to hear all of your best Josh Holmes show stories! Something cool/funny/interesting that happened at or after a performance. Get posting!

Ok so if you want something really good, i'm just going to have to give you the best one i've got... there are a few, but i think this one will stay in your head... FOREVER!!!
So a few weeks ago after Josh played at the Blue Chip Casino's Rocks Lounge, we were driving back and it was dark outside, obviously, and well, there was this guy going like 25 in a 35, so Josh moved over to pass him, and as he did I, for whatever reason, looked towards the pavement on the road rather then whatever was right infront of us, and that's when i saw it...... MIDGET!! Now, I have nothing against them, they're just unfortuantely small people. Anyways, I had to look twice because I thought it was just that Michigan City air getting to me, but no. There was a dark little man, on a dark street without street lites wearing dark clothing... make sense?? i didn't think so...Well, Josh was starting to accelerate now because we were passing the old guy and as Josh is speeding up I see this midget freeze, like a deer in headlights IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR LANE!! I really didn't know what to do. All that was going through my head was oh f.... we're going to kill a midget tonight. So I grabbed ahold of the dashboard and I let out a scream... a very loud scream.. MMMMMMMMIIIIIDDDDDGGGGGGEEEEEEETTTT!! I really didn't know what else to do.
Well, good thing Josh has good ear/foot coordination, he slammed on his brakes and allowed the midget to continue crossing the street. He then proceeded to put on his glasses saying, 'holy sh** class, i didn't even see that guy. I almost killed a midget.'
Now just imagine........Josh in a HUGE truck hitting a midget. It would have just felt like a pot hole. This is why I strongly suggest driving with Josh whenever humanly possible.
OK, seriously this is a true story... ask Josh, he'll admit it.

Driving with Josh is like a death sentence. Whether hes slamming on his brakes to avoid hitting a midget or hes slamming on his brakes to stop at a STOP sign. I fear for my life. However, he learned his cautious driving skills from none other than RONNIE ROCKET!! Bad driving is genetic, its in the Holmes' genes. Although, its not every day you come across a midget crossing the road...

Interestingly, I had a similar experience with Josh, on the way back from West Virginia. A group of us were in Josh's Envoy, driving along IN 421, and I'm on the cell phone looking out at the road from the back seat. Then I see it, a little (baby) deer. Josh obviously doesn't see it, and all I can think of is to say, "Josh... dude... Dude... DUDE." Josh gets a little annoyed, says "What's up?" And, then it's too late. What a bummer, but then again, Josh's cars attract deer like magnets. Joshua - Wear your d**n glasses when you drive! -S
