Tonight Might Matter
April 16, 2010 in Blogs
I have several times mentioned that tonight Collision will be playing at Lift-FM’s Feed a Friend Free Concert, opening for Tal & Acacia. We are one of the “exciting up & coming area bands” mentioned in the promotional material.
I doubt many blog readers here are near enough Seaville (New Jersey) to attend, and we expect to do a mere two songs so if you’re more than an hour away (we’re an hour away ourselves, and down here in the sticks that’s not really a long trip) it’s probably not worth it to come just for us. I’ve not heard the headliners, but I know Joe Burke has a good ear for what’s good in Christian music, so I expect they’re worth hearing. In any case, the invitation is extended.
I am also asking believers to remember us in prayer for this. It is the sort of opportunity that has the potential to create opportunities; a large audience will hear us and at least some will remember and want to hear more–that, at least, is the hope and expectation, as it has happened before in similar circumstances. There are no guarantees, however. Two songs is not a big concert, and one mistake can ruin half of them.
So thanks for your support and encouragement, and particularly for your prayers in the current circumstance.

Record it. I want to hear this on MP3.

I actually ran two cheap recorders, but the acoustics were so bad that you really have to know the songs to make them out.
I’m of the understanding that Lift-FM recorded the entire concert off the sound board, so I’m hoping that copies will be available to the artists, but I’ve not heard anything more on that yet.
