Nashville’s Flood2010
Well, this past weekend I’ve been with Alabaster Box in Buffalo and Rochester in Western New York – about 800 miles from the devastation hitting Nashville, Tennessee and surrounding areas.

Yesterday, April 25, was ANZAC day. We had had a great show in Macon, Georgia the night before at Christ Chapel and I was driving the Alabaster Box tour van home.

Saturday night I had the privilege of joining my room mate, Theresa and her famous ‘Aunt Gretchen’ at one of America’s premier fondue restaurants, ‘The Melting Pot’. Its basically ‘fondue’ heaven.

Yesterday we experienced a little American culture. Our lovely host from Highlawn Baptist Church, Jason took us to Hillbilly Hotdogs! This place was pretty different…. behind the doors I am opening in this pic is literally two outhouse toilets facing each other… I’m not sure I would want to eat in there! I guess [...]

G’day from Ohio! I’m on tour this week with Alabaster Box doing shows in West Virginia and Western New York. I will admit its kind of hard being away from my good friend, Jenna – who if you’ve kept up with my last two blogs you’d know has been diagnosed with a benign brain tumor. [...]
