Gospel Music Channel To Air World Premiere Of Third Day Concert Tuesday, November 23

A world premiere concert from Third Day, the definitive Christian rock band of the past decade, will be shown exclusively on Gospel Music Channel on Tuesday, November 23, as the centerpiece of a full night of prime-time Third Day programming beginning at 8 p.m. EST. The concert will air as part of Gospel Music Channel's original program "Front Row Live," and will concurrently be available on the LIVE WIRE DVD to be released to consumers the same
day. Gospel Music Channel is the nation's only 24-hour all-gospel television network.

"We are very excited to be bringing the fans of gospel music this exclusive world premiere as this reinforces our commitment as the preeminent brand for gospel music on television," said Charles Humbard, president and CEO of ospel Music Channel. "This world premiere concert is an example of the value of our partnerships with the major gospel record labels, along with our strong relationships with the artists themselves."

Platinum-selling Christian rock group Third Day has seven albums under its belt, including the new, edgy, rock album, WIRE (Essential Records), and has won countless distinguished music awards (including a GRAMMY), and is coming off successful world tour. After a small break from touring in 2003, Third Day's five members began work on WIRE, their most personal offering to date. The band's influence continues to resonate with fans all over the world, complete with an impressive repertoire of music that has included a wide spectrum of faith music, including modern rock, techno and worship music, as evident in the successful "Offerings Experience" tour.

In November, Third Day fans will have more than one opportunity to see the band Billboard Magazine called, "one of the best rock bands, period." This special Third Day program line-up on Gospel Music Channel includes:

Tuesday, November 9 at 9 p.m. "Front Row Live" — See Third Day on one of their most recent and most popular worship tours, "The Offerings Experience." Third Day will host this special presentation and give fans a front row seat to one of the greatest gospel concerts in the world.

Tuesday, November 16 at 9 p.m. "Front Row Live" — Another world-premiere event will feature Third Day's "Come Together" tour, hosted by the band.

Tuesday, November 23 (with encore presentation on November 27):

8:00 p.m. "Faith & Fame" — On the day Third Day's LIVE WIRE DVD hits the streets, host Rick Joyner engages the Christian super-group about their lives, music and faith, in a personal "in-depth" special presentation.

9:00 p.m. "Front Row Live" — presents the world premiere of Third Day's LIVE WIRE tour DVD.
