Chris Rice was Great!

A week or so ago I heard about a free concert by one of my favorite Christian singers, Chris Rice. I was joined tonight by a few hundred other fans making it an intimate concert where I was only about 50 feet away... and could have gotten closer. His song lyrics are chocked full of faith-based messages and he came across as a real person you could have over for dinner. It was also nice to see teenage girls, long-haired young men, young families with children in strollers, grandmothers, and gray-haired men all simultaneously enjoying the Christian music all together. No fancy special effects either. Just Chris Rice and his percussionist.

Thanks to 94 FM "The Fish" in Nashville and Orpy Mills Mall for "Music at the Mills." It was well worth the trip.


To top off a really perfect evening, my alma mater, the University of Memphis advanced to the "Elite Eight" of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament. It was Duke that was the first number one seed to fall.
