Are you kidding me! No one knows how to party and have a good time like the college reps at COCA. I can't believe how much fun you guys and gals were. The band and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such an amazing night. Your linedancing skills definately are some of the best we have seen. Party on COCA.

WOW! Is all I can say about the NXNE indie music festival in Toronto. My band and I had a blast performing at the Cadillac Lounge! What an amazing venue with great sound and a great audience. Also it was such an honour to be the featured Country Artist at Dundas Square signing autographs and meeting all the incredible fans.
 
Thank you City of Toronto and NXNE for a great time

Hey all you DJT fans

This is a shout out to you all, a calling out of my fans if you will. I need you all to prove that you are the best fans in the world. This is an opportunity for you all to see me perform with one of the greatest artists of all time, in Toronto. So here is all the info to help you vote for DJT to open for Bon Jovi in Toronto this summer!

Fans have the opportunity to judge the "Bon Jovi Wanted: A SuperBAND Tonight!" Channel(s) of their choice in three places: OurStage.com, Bon Jovi's official Facebook page, and Bon Jovi's Web site. To judge on OurStage.com, fans must first create a free OurStage account. Once their account is set up, they can judge the contest by clicking the "Judge" button on the navigation bar at the top of the screen then selecting the "Bon Jovi's Wanted: A SuperBAND Tonight!" Music Channel of their choice. Fans will have the option of judging either "Sort 4" battles or "Head To Head" battles.

For fans using Facebook, go to Facebook.com/BonJovi and click on the "SuperBAND" tab. They will automatically be taken to a landing page that explains the contest. From here they will see two buttons asking whether they want to judge as a "Fan" or join as an "Artist". After clicking "Judge as Fan," fans will be prompted to enter their Facebook login info. Next fans will be asked to accept the "judging application". Once the application is accepted, the fan will be asked to select the region they wish to judge. They will then be redirected to the judging widget, which looks and functions the same as "Sort 4" judging on OurStage.

Fans using www.BonJovi.com must click the "Bon Jovi's Wanted: A SuperBAND Tonight!" link on the web site. Once selected the instructions are the same as the instructions for using Facebook.

Your fans can guarantee that they we see your band in "Judging" by choosing your band as their "favorite", then judging 20 battles. To do so, they can select the green "favorite" button located under the "Fans" tab on your profile. (Let them know that selecting your band, as their favorite band does not count as a vote).

I can't thank you all enough for your support.

Sincerely

DJT

So I just got back not too long ago from a little place called Little Current, ON. It's located on Manitoulin Island, which I found out is the Largest fresh water Island in the world. The place is beautiful and one thing I must say is so are the people. I have been a lot of places in my life and it is very rare to find a place where the people are so friendly and kind. I started my adventure with my two band mates Dan Kokol and Marty Beecroft. We headed 5 and a half hours north from our home town to do a live acoustic performance and interview with one of the best radio personalities in the business (KT Timmermans, The Island 100.7fm). Afterwards we were treated to a great lunch and told about every detail of the Island and the culture. Then we were shown some of the most beautiful scenery I personally have ever seen. We then started our journey back home but let me tell you the 11 hour drive was totally worth it.

Thank you so much KT and everyone from Manitoulin Island. Your continued support allows me to follow my dreams.

Well the Benefit Concert has come and gone. It was a huge success though and I must say I had a blast performing. Thank you to all the fans that came out and to everyone who helped make it possible. The bands were incredible and I am so proud to have gotten to perform with such great people. Misty Lee Olsen and Scotty had an amazing acoustic set that really blew everyone away. Shari-lynn rocked the house with her band. The Fred Grant Squares had everyone dancing and Vitology took the event home. So Thank you again to the organizers and to all the bands who made it a night to Remember.

Not many people get to wake up in the morning and say "I sing for a living". I thank everyone of my fan's, friend's and family for helping make this life a reality for me.

Thank You.
