AGMF – Sons Of Korah

See this Virtual Tour in FullScreen High Definition mode. Opens In New Window + Audio FullScreen Virtual Tour [2.5MB] We interrupt our regular viewing to show you an event rather than a place. AGMF – the Australian Gospel Music Festival is an annual event, running in Toowoomba each Easter. It begins in about 2 weeks which is why we’ve taken this opportunity to show a few virtual tours from last year. The Sons of Korah are playing in this virtual tour. Check out the High Definition version (linked above) to hear the audio as well. These guys play the golden oldies. No not your parents music, the 3000yr old Psalms of the bible. Beautiful music. (Excuse the poor audio, it’s recorded live when I’m shooting, then massively compressed for web delivery) See Full Size Google Map with all AGMF Virtual Tours – Click Here.INSERT_MAP AGMF & Band, Links, Websites – Click...
