I just want to say that I am so very proud of my friend Joshua (Gabriel) Stevens. He is an awesome singer/songwriter & 2 finish 4th out of 20,000 people is an wonderful thing. WAY TO GO JOSH !!! (Now let's play some poker !!! LOL)

I for one am pretty tired of people screaming that the show is rigged because their favorite was voted out or asked to leave as in show # 1. These guys and gals work very hard every week to do their best on the show and win the votes of America, it is not fair to them or your personal favorite to say such things. Josh is a great entertainer and a even better man & I know he will have a wonderful future in this business & MOST of you will fall in love with him.
(notice I said MOST Tailgate ! LOL )

I think they all become a bit of a family on the show & it is very hard on them when one leaves.... even though they know that is part of the game. The three that are left are very worthy of being there & I think it will be a very close call. I also think all 4 of the finalist that made the tour will be very successful.

Congrats to all of you Josh (Gabriel) - Angela - Zac & DSR (kissyboy as my daughter call him) All of you are awesome in your own right.

I have come to love the final 3 contestants and really have no idea who I would choose if I had to pick a winner. They made a rock & roll chick realize that country is NOT such a bad thing & for that I thank them. I guess this Rock & Roll lovin chick will be buyin her first 4 Country CD"S !! LOL

ROCK ON !! - Jen

My husband and I have never been into country music. We both have really enjoyed NS listening to Josh and the others. When Joshua's CD is finished I know we will buy it and I wouldn't be surprised if we get a Zac or DSR too. (Never was wild about Angela). See, old dogs can learn new tricks!!! We are so fortunate to have had the opportunity to witness Joshua growing musically during the 90s while he was in HS with our boys. He is truly an awesome young man and Central South Iowa is proud of him and his accomplishments. GO JOSHUA!!!! We look forward to seeing your name in bigger and brighter lights!!!

Heyy. I wanted to express how extremely proud I also am of Josh. That man is amazing, in every sense of the word. He is kind, gracious, extremely talented, and deserves his place in the final four.

Also I wanted to say how much I admire all three of the others. Angela, Zac, and DSR are all talented and amazing. I enojoy listening to all three of them, although Josh is my favorite I can honestly say I think that those three deserver there places also!

Im extremely excited about tonights show, the tour, and all four of their CD's to come!!
