So we just got back from Tennessee.
Good times!
I am writing this from purely my (Kim's) perspective, so it may have a bit of a slant because I love the place soooo much!
We got in on 9/13 and played Friday nite, Saturday and Sunday.
Some highlights are on my personal page...

But some other highlights I can include are...
Well, I touched on this in my personal blog but, something about Saturday nite.
It was so super cool just to have fun, just pure fun, no pressure. Quite frequently I found myself just really taking in that moment as once again (like at the cd release show) I looked across the stage at Katy in that place where she just connects with the music, with the players, with the audience and I am so blessed to be there.
I loved Sunday because we got to do what we do best, serve during the time of worship with special music. I don't think I can recall a better sound and a better time where we just gelled. And the gracious people there who welcomed us into their home, their church were so cool. Thank You to the folks at New Life Church in Columbia!
We'd like to thank our good friends Mike Hoover and Corey Batorski for their friendship and hospitality.
What I do remember on Saturday, and although this could happen anywhere really but for the first time it was me and Katy sitting down in the acoustic guitar room at the Guitar Center and jamming, we spent a little while together just pickin'...haha. I can't wait to do some more and maybe do some instrumental stuff together both recorded and live soon, she's really finding her way around the guitar and soon she'll be takin over...watch out!
I especially liked going to my favorite guitar shop...Gruhn's guitars. One of the sales guys offered me an incredible deal on a Taylor that I almost couldn't resist. I still think about that and how that instrument was just MADE for me!
Well, we are now eagerly awaiting the trip to Chicago next and other upcoming shows.
We had a logo guy/graphic artist create some cool work for our cd that we are trying to get up on our site as our background, so look for that to show up sometime real soon!
Thank You Tennessee!
We'll be back!
