Just Talking
I know it's been a while since I've posted anything on my blog and I apologize for that. Writing a journal or keeping a diary has never been one of my strong points. But I will try my best to do better.
Things have been going well with Justin Fennell and me on the road with the "Death By Chocolate" events. Just a few weeks ago we were in Raleigh, NC at Crossroads Church and they sold out. 600 people were there and they had to stop the ticket sales about a week before. The sponsor said he probably could have sold another 600! So, that is great news!! We had a great time. You can view photos from the event on my web site at scottdavis.org.
Then last week we were in Maryland, just outside of Washington, DC at Journey's Crossing Church. It was a smaller crowd of about 150, but what a responsive crowd. Now, I am NOT making this up, but one guy came to Justin and me after the concert and said he's only laughed that hard two other times in his life. One was at a Steve Martin concert and the other at a Billy Cosby concert! What a compliment!
This past Wednesday I went up to Nashville for Anthony Burger's funeral. Some of you might not know who he is, but he was one of the BEST piano players in the world! He traveled all over the world in music ministry and was a regular with Bill Gaither and the Homecoming crowd. Well, last week he was on a Gaither Cruise and while on stage playing for Bill Gaither and some others, he had a heart attack and died! It was such a tradegy. He was only 44 years of age. He was a tremendous man and a great friend. He will be truly missed.
While I was up there, I got to hang out with my friend Mark Lowry. He also took some time to allow me to interview him for my PodCast. So, if you've not heard that yet, please hop back over to my homepage and subscribe to my PodCast.
Well, it is almost 3:20 in the morning here on Friday night, (Saturday morning), and I've got to catch up on my tivo stuff. It was Sci-Fi Friday, so I have several shows to watch before I hit the hay.
Thanks always for reading my blog and keeping me and my family in your thoughts and prayers!
