Getting the Band Back Together

In what sometimes feels like another life, I was in a band for about eight years. We played a lot of shows, went to Nashville in hopes of signing a record contract, had a song on some radio stations, and soon after arriving in Nashville decided we did not want to join the machine that is the "music industry." Long story short, some of us got married, some of us had kids, some of us moved away and we called it a day.

Becky, our bass player's (M-A-T-T) wife, decided to ask us if we would be able to play a show for his birthday, and we are doing just that. On March 23rd at a location TBD in Fredericksburg, VA and with another band to be confirmed, we will play one more show. I am both excited and a little bit nervous, but mostly excited.

Tomorrow, I have the privilege to play the guitar and help lead worship at church. It is amazing to me how God created us to be blessed by the act of glorifying Him. It is a testament that the more we do that, the more we want to and the more He reveals to us about how much He loves us.

With that, I'm actually going to do some reading and get some sleep... for the record, I've walked  two consecutive days so far and I'm already feeling a difference.
