Check out a bit of behind the scenes footage from last Saturday's welcome home event at Burton Coliseum for Joshua Ledet.

I had a chance to arrive at Burton Coliseum a bit early on Saturday, so I took a couple of  photos of fans preparing and waiting patiently for Joshua Ledet's arrival. As well as some photos of the audio/visual crews  and volunteers hard at work.

They say that  'no man is an island,' and if you meet the family of 'American Idol' contestant Joshua Ledet, you'll realize that he's got a whole continent to himself.  Josh is one of eight brothers and sisters, so this question comes up quite often -- can they all sing, too?

After an incredible day of interviews, parades, catching up with family and just generally being hounded by “American Idol’s” camera crews on Saturday, Joshua Ledet made his stunning entrance into Burton Coliseum for his homecoming concert.  Neither his entrance  nor singing disappointed.  It was a fitting end to an amazing day.

It goes without saying that American Idol contestant Joshua Ledet's days are pretty busy right now.  But is there such a thing as a typical day for him?

Stop by 'Buy and Save' on Highway 14 for your chance to win tickets to see Joshua Ledet live inside the Burton Coliseum beginning at 6 p.m.!

If you did not get a pair of the 7,900 tickets that were given out for the Joshua Ledet concert at the Burton Coliseum, you'll still have a chance see and hear it LIVE. Because of the demand, the concert will be simulcast live inside the Lake Charles Civic Center coliseum at Contraband Days and broadcast live on our sister station, 107 JAMZ.  Here is all the info.

This afternoon, "American Idol's" Joshua Ledet received the welcome of a returning king. Once upon a time, he was just a 19-year-old kid from Westlake. Now, he's the kind of guy that gets off a flight to a gaggle of local paparazzi. Well, Josh, what do you have to say for yourself?

Just about everybody knows that Louisiana's pride, Joshua Ledet, will be home tomorrow.  It's gonna be a whirlwind of a day for him.  Tune in tomorrow all day as 107 JAMZ turns into 107 JOSHUA!

Joshua Ledet is coming home and a parade in his honor has been scheduled for noon tomorrow (Saturday May 12th) in Westlake, LA.

Being a part of "American Idol’s" Top 3 has its privileges — namely, you get to come home and see your family and friends.  When it comes to Josh, that group is getting larger by the minute!  While Josh will be in our studios Saturday morning at 9 a.m. and on the streets of Westlake for a parade at noon, he’ll blow the doors off the Burton Coliseum at 6 p.m. during his “pep rally” perfor
