"This performance at the Alaska State Fair puts an exclamation point on a fantastic 6 months for Doug," said Michael Stover of MTS Management Group, Doug's manager.  "In a very short time, Doug is becoming a very sought after performer in his region, having already performed at Rodeo Alaska, the Bear Paw Festival, and singing the National Anthem for his hometown Anchorage Bucs.  When you add in the success of his west coast motorcycle tour last month, I'd say big things are happening for Doug Briney."
