TBG & WSNG

It was a busy weekend in X-ALT land it started out Friday night at the "Very Cool" Truth, Beauty and Goodness (or TBG) Coffee House in Ashland City TN. The "Crowd" if you want to call it that was hampered by a huge thunderstorm that passed through the area just before we were scheduled to play. If fact "The Crowd" was a small group of family and friends and a few passers by that happened in. But hey, you can't win them all. We'll be back at TGB soon (Hopefully at the End of September) and weather permitting we will fill up the place. We had a good time playing and singing and we were blessed by having Tommy and my ol' "Blue Collar" band mate Lawrence Bailey join us on Sax and guitar. Lawrence was kind enough to fill in for Bryan who had other commitments Friday night. Lawrence is a member of the Nashville Based Funk Rock act "The Jones" and he did a great job, hopefully he will be joining us again soon, I would love to see a show where we had him and Bryan up there together!!!

Sunday Mark and I had the pleasure of joining my old friend Tommy Lewis on his Sunday afternoon Gospel radio show that airs on WSNG 880am. Tommy is the long time host of the "Nashville Gospel" TV show that airs locally on WSMV-TV Channel 4, and has been a prominent member of the Gospel Music community here in Nashville for the last 30+ years.
We spent about half an hour with Tommy and our songs "Piggy Back Ride" and "Oh, Happy Day" saw their first radio airplay!!!
Tommy is just a great person who loves the Lord and never hesitates to show it.


Speaking of Busy weekends...Let's look at next weekend! Saturday night X-ALT will be performing along with our buddy Chris Warren at the world famous 23rd Psalm Cafe and Coffee House


Then on Sunday morning we are providing the music for the 11:00am service at "Flewellyn Baptist Church" in Springfield TN then after lunch we will be doing an hour set to help them celebrate their annual Homecoming.
