The Damascus Road Available Now

After being out of print for some time, "The Damascus Road," Bruce Brookshire’s CD of original Christian songs is back, with a new cover. "We are blessed to be able to offer this again," said Bruce. "If not for the courage and support of some special friends, this would not have happened when it did."

A new Live CD Coming Soon

Tom Hallek, President of Phoenix Records in Hamburg, Germany has announced plans to release a CD of live cuts from the band?s 25th anniversary Tour. A large amount of live material is available and the band is choosing the best tracks. Mixing will be done in Hamburg under the oversight of Bruce Brookshire. "This new CD is a taste of the audio quality that fans can expect as part of the definitive Doc Holliday DVD, which will be released in 2008," said Hallek. "This band is very powerful in concert, and we hope to match the success of the "Song For The Outlaw" CD, a Southern rock classic, which has been a top seller for almost two decades."

The 25th Anniversary Tour—Europe

THE TOUR WENT REALLY WELL! We want to thank fans from Norway, Sweden, England, Holland, France and Switzerland who attended, and of course the many German friends we got to see along the way. Filming for the upcoming ‘Doc Holliday Definitive DVD’ took place at four venues-two open air shows and two clubs, as well as lots of off-stage footage. A BIG thanks to Tom Hallek, and to Marc, Stefan and Hermann for their hard work and friendship. Special thanks to Georg Bayer and the Lizard band, our brothers-in-arms. Much love to Peter, Waltraud and Nadine, who are the rock we depend on and our home away from home. Thank You Lord for safe travel. There actually may be a Part II of the 25th Anniversary Tour with dates in Spain, France, England and Scandinavia. Stay tuned for updates. For all of you who brought LPs, CDs and items for us to sign: Thank you so much for your kindness in remembering us, we really would not do it if not for you.
