"We are counting them down to the Oct. 22 finals," said Doug Gabriel, creator, producer and director of the show. "Last week's winner and our second finalist is Angie Flanagan from Rockwall, Texas, who sang My Heart Will Go On. She won a prize package which included $100 cash and guest appearances around Branson. Angie joins our first finalist, Aimee Flanders of Lebanon, Mo. This week's contestants are Kazzie Shae Broyles of Arlington, Texas; Justin Temme from Fort Worth, Texas; Trish Muenks of Effingham, Ill.; Payton Kane from Dodson, Texas, Shannon Cage from Muskogee, Okla.; and Brittaney Whittaker from Tulsa, Okla."

"During semi-finals six competitors are narrowed down by the judges to two contestants and then the audience selects the winner. Each week the winner receives an array of prizes, a personal appearance on the Doug Gabriel Show Saturdays at 9:30 a.m. and on KRZK's Grand Country Saturday Night at 11 p.m. and a spot in the finals to compete for the $5,000 grand prize to be awarded on Oct. 22. The excitement is building as we approach the finals," said Doug.

Semi-finalists who will be competing Oct. 15 are Amanda Reddick of St. Louis, Trish Cardona of Hillsboro, Mo., Gregory Manis of High Ridge, Mo., Carrie Joy Andreas of Edwardsville, Ill., Cassie Hobson of Bristow, Okla., and Debra Osborn of Burleson, Texas.

Branson Idol is hosted by Doug's wife Cheryl Gabriel and Chance Havens. The entertainer VIP balcony section of the show is sponsored this week by Luigi's Pizza.

Youth Life, a non-profit organization which offers unconditional friendship for youth, assists and part of the proceeds from each show is donated to the group. Youth Life's unconditional friendship for youth provides 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.
