THANK YOU to all who attended, supported, helped produce, performed at this year’s fantastic concert. Thanks, too, for buying artist’s CDs and merch (visit artist websites to buy online or buy locally).
Sadly, due to a technical glitch in a new system, the 2008 footage was lost and no DVD is available from this year.
HOWEVER: We are very fortunate that Tommy Allen (Artist-Raconteur-Rapid Growth Media Lifestyle Editor) video-ed Joshua doing this dead-pan hilarious (yet smart and soulful) song from AWT2008.
Take a moment checkout OCTOBERDAY.COM for a growing collection of downloadable songs from the show. New songs from this years show coming over the next two weeks. Special studio versions of Jimmie Stagger‘s Wanna Be Home For Christmas, Bruce Zeeuw and Frank Salamone‘s collaboration Frost on the Firelight and Lauran and J. Oscar Bittinger‘s opening song Holly Jolly Holiday.
