Sunday after church we hauled our system and selves over to the Embrace Richmond event up near Virginia Union University. Its a ministry outreach for city children of Richmond. We had a ball playing these tunes, and some we didn't even rehearse we got the neatest harmonies on. So it was a very spontaneous thing. It took us quite awhile to load and unload. I used my mini van and it was packed. The crowd enjoyed us though. Terry brought food from Subway. She and her mother left early. It was just the boys and then we packed up and stopped at McDonald's and talked about music and instruments and gigs we have played in the past and musicians we have met and such. Then we had to load all the stuff back into church. Its quite a big one and it is scary when you're in the dark. Everyone in the band is from choir, with the exception of Larry the drummer. We have a really nice sound, I believe. The exciting part is, I think I found a band to play with me on my next Album. And I won't have to pay 'em. So I can do it without breaking my piggy bank.
