Which One Is Which?
I was wondering which member of Dawn is which.  I have a lovely t-shirt of Tony and Dawn and was wondering who's who.

Re:  Which One Is Which?
Well, not seeing the picture makes it harder to say.  If you look at the drawing on the home page, Joyce is on the left and Telma on the right.  Telma is the taller of the two, with long hair that she often wore pulled back in a bun.  She was also the more outspoken of the two.  Joyce was known as the quiet and shy one.

Maybe it was all those write in votes for the Coolest Variety Show!  Our voices were heard.  Now maybe the DVD release may happen sooner.

They are still working on the DVD deal.  Nothing has been signed as of yet, but we are hopeful that something will happen this year.

Branson Idol
From The Branson Courier: 

Doug Gabriel to host new weekly Branson Idol Show
By Press Release
02/12/2004

In addition to his award winning morning show, Doug Gabriel will have a new, once a week, late night show called Branson Idol which will open April 16, 2004 at the Legends Family Theatre. A rotating panel of celebrity judges including Roy Clark, Tony Orlando, Ronnie McDowell, Moe Bandy, Mickey Gilley, Larry Gatlin, Janet Ellis, the Hughes Brothers, Merle Osmond, Kirby VanBurch and Paul Harris head a list of the panel of celebrity judges who will critique the performers competing for a variety of prizes, personal appearances and a $5,000 grand prize.

The judges critique and audience participation will determine the weekly winners who will then advance to the Grand Finale in October. Contestants will be found through auditions set in major regional cities including St. Louis, Tulsa, Little Rock, Dallas, Chicago, Springfield and Kansas City and may also submit an audio and photograph or video tape. To find out about the audition process go to the website www.bransonidol.com or call toll free 1-866-234-IDOL.

True to Doug’s style, he has made the Branson Idol project a fund raiser with part of the proceeds from each show going to Youth Life, a non-profit group which offers unconditional friendship for youth by providing positive alternatives to local youth through weekly clubs, small group Bible studies, sports, activities and trips. The Youth Life staff builds relationships with the students and earns the right to share the gospel and then introduces them to a local church of their choice for discipleship.

Call 417-337-8300 for show schedule and reservations.

Tony's Backup Band
I just sat Tony in Jackpot.  Great show!  I've been looking for more information on his talented band, but it is noticeably absent on his site or anywhere else for that matter.  Can someone tell me more about his touring band members?

Re:  Tony's Backup Band
Hey Bob, Thanks for your comment about the band. This is Michael Jackson, Tony's drummer. I was just checking the message board and saw your question. Ask your questions and I'll answer back when I can. We are going to be out a lot so I'll check back. Thanks again. MJ
