What a great show yesterday! Around 2:30 yesterday, the band and I left for Vinton Baptist Church in Vinton, OH. After a long stretch of boring Ohio highway, we arrived at the church around 5pm and started setting up our gear and getting sound checks. At 7:00, the youth band of Vinton Baptist Church led us in worship. The pastor followed with a short meessage which challenged the teens to stay strong in their faith. After that, we and the crowd of 60 people or so grabbed some pizza in the fellowship hall. Our dinner was accented by a comedy routine performed by the pastor and several of the teens at the church. Very funny. The comedy continued as Rob and I discovered a little boy (5 or 6 yrs. old) fast asleep in the corner of the bathroom, underneath the paper towel dispenser. He was fine, just sleeping. =) Weird. Then...during the show (which started around 8:30), I clocked a little in the eye with the wireless microphone. She was dancing around on the stage during one of the songs and as she slipped out of sight behind me, I put the mic down only to bump her right above the eye with the mic. Wow, I felt bad! She turned out to be quite a trooper, and only moments later, she was up dancing around again.
We left Vinton around 10:15 pm and headed back to Columbus where we stopped at a Steak N Shake around 12:30 am. I finally got home around 2:00 am and was up at 7:30 this morning, as I had to run sound for a morning service at a local church. Needless to say, I'm pretty tired.
Thanks to the band: Brian Houts, Rob Bradley, AJ Mainyard, and Rich Barrett for a great show and thanks to the folks at Vinton Baptist Church for the opportunity to be a part of their ministry. God is good. So are naps. =)
Our next show is scheduled for April 22nd at Life Community Church in Hilliard, OH. Visit http://www.marcandremusic.com/news.html for the latest details.
