Well, things have been quiet out here lately. I’ve been really busy lately, and this blog just hasn’t gotten the attention it deserves. I know there are millions of people out there wondering what’s going on, and I should work harder to keep them updated.

This week has been a good week of concerts for me. My friend Drew called me last weekend to let me know that Andy Gullahorn was playing at his church in Chattanooga on Sunday night. So my friend Chris and I drove up for that. Good show, indeed. And we went to Zaxby’s after the show. That’s always good too.

I didn’t get pictures from Sunday, mostly because we were way in the back and not really in a prime spot for photos. The backs of heads aren’t all that thrilling to see.

So then on Tuesday night I drove up to Knoxville to a benefit concert for New City Cafe. They’re not going to be New City Cafe anymore…they’re teaming up with some folks in Knoxville to do a mission-oriented project in the city. It’ll be good; I’m certain of that, but I don’t really know all the details of what’s going on.

Andrew Peterson, Jill Phillips, Andy Gullahorn, Randall Goodgame, Matthew Perryman Jones, Alethia, and Ryan Long (I think that’s everybody) came out to help raise some cash for New City Cafe. It says a lot about New City that all of these guys were willing to take a night out of their schedule, drive to Knoxville for the show, and do it for free so that New City could benefit even more from the ticket sales.

If you ever get a chance, ask some of these guys what they think about New City. I’m sure they’d be glad to tell you all about what New City has meant to them.

I did get a few pictures from the night. They’re not great because 1)the lighting was really, really weird (spotlight behind the artists and colored lights directly on them) and 2)I refuse to be “that guy” with the flash popping all the time during a concert. They’re over here on my flickr page.

I’ve got a few thoughts about New City that I’m organizing into a separate post. It’ll be one of those deep thinking posts that I come up with about every 3 months. I’m overdue for one of those anyway…

Tonight I’m taking my favorite 6 year old up to Dalton to see (once again) Andy Gullahorn. The real reason I’m going up there is to get our stroller back from him (I had to leave it at his house in December because of the impromptu drive to Huntsville with Eric, Sandra and Jill). And, since we’ll be there anyway to get the stroller, we’ll sit and listen to the music…since we’ll be there anyway.
