I mean more than bgv (background vocals).  Yeah, I really am truly thankful that I can not only hear harmonies easily but can usually sing them on key too.  There are so many who wish they could do that much.  Some postulate that it takes a better ear to do that.  I don’t know for sure, but it is fun and I’m grateful I can do it without thinking about it for the most part.  But, the greedy nature of my humanity wants more.

A buddy of mine recently gave me a digital copy of an album I bought on vinyl in the early 1980’s and listened to a lot.  I haven’t heard it since way back when ever it was that my turntable belt snapped.  After many years it’s really good to hear it again.  At least for the first few minutes.

Wow!  I am totally blessed to have been a part of this worship team.  No offense to any others in the past, but this one really, truly, rocked the house.  Those in attendance are still talking about it.  It was awesome, fun, and such intense worship.  I know in my heart God had to be really pleased!

Kerry Livgren, 59, co-founder of the band Kansas, suffered a stroke Tuesday morning.  He’s apparently resting after surgery to remove the blood clot.  Reports say it was in the language/high skills part of the brain.  It’s hard to know how to feel at this moment.  He gave his life to Christ in the 1980’s and so that is not a concern.  Kerry has been a huge influence on me musically over the years.  Huge.  It’s just hard to know how to feel.

Everything finally came together and the announcement has been made this evening.  Stones Crye is official.

Ever.  Unless you enjoy the taste of the word because God has a funny way of making you eat this particular word.
