Michael W. Smith and Brenda Lee are on the main stage right now and he acted insulted that she didn’t invite him to sing on her Duets album. But then she said that he didn’t call her to sing on “Friends” either.

Artist of The Year: Chris Tomlin

Aaron Shust just entered the pressroom. He told us that his mom gave him a turkey baster to sing into when he was three years old, practicing his songs for church while she played the piano accompaniment. His new album coming out is called “Whispered and Shouted” because those are the ways that God sometimes speaks to us. He worked with the same producers on this album as the last album.

Will what happened tonight, change you? He says it boosted his confidence a little and if it changes him, he hopes it’s for the positive. Today and tomorrow he will be a sinner, saved by amazing grace, he says. Funny sidenotes he mentioned as walking off stage: his favorite color is blue and he likes the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Crabb Family is performing on the main stage now.
