Saturday the 20th - It was AWESOME!

Hi Everyone!

Too bad if you missed Saturday night ! ;) IT WAS THE BOMB! The crowd was really into it and the music was never better!

We had a genuinely AWESOME time...a lot of off-the-cuff performing was happenin'! It was totally cool! A couple of performers were unable to make it, but the House Band picked up the slack with songs like "How Far is Heaven," "Hungry," "Sweet Home Hosanna," and a bunch more! The House Band fired things up for the "Back to School Party" with a Christian rendition of "The Future's So Bright, I gotta Wear Shades!" The band and part of the audience wore sunglasses for the song - it was a BLAST!!! HEY....to the CROWD - you guys ROCK!!!

K.T. Vandyke and Gene Boyd performed some excellent stuff during the night and were gracious enough to join the House Band for the evening (and hopefully for a long time to come!). They added a real flavor to the mix! Other performers included Emily Ratliff, Heather Hagerman, and a special performance by Elaine Harman. Jeff Arwood and Derek Stilwell provided comic relief and didan outstanding job of it (Jeff has some great suggestions for making Nascar more exciting, like adding Gatlin Guns and Missiles to the hoods of the cars - HMMMM....

Many thanks to EVERYONE who worked, performed and attended! It is a new season for Higher Ground and we are scheduling new acts for the fall! PLEASE JOIN US FOR THE NEXT ONE! We are currently considering Opening on Labor Day weekend, but that is thus far inconclusive. I gotta admit...I AM EXCITED!

Keep it here! More later...Godspeed...BR
