11/25/08: Raising Money For Food Bank and Traveling!

Had a great time in Columbia, SC today. Mark and I played a 35-minute acoustic set at Ozzies Country Island Pub, a show put on by the local country station
WWNU. This show was to raise money for the local food bank and over 3,000 dollars was raised!! I was happy to be a part of it and so where all the other artists that were there to show their support. From there we drove to Charlotte, NC where we hopped a plane to College Station, TX. We arrived safe and sound here in College Station earlier today and had the rest of the day off. It was sure a nice little luxury to be able to sleep in till 10 a.m. this morning, lol. I don't get those kind of mornings to often, haha.. We left the hotel at 11 this morning and headed over to do a Cricket in store visit. I think a few more fans were made there which is something I'm always shooting for. After the in store visit, we had lunch at Jason's Deli, great place to get a good quick meal. After that, we made our way to the radio station where I did an on air interview with a DJ whose name was Adam also. He did a video recording of Mark and I playing "Then She Cried" acoustically. The station puts these videos on their website and on YouTube, so it turns out to be great promotion. After the station visit, we headed back to the hotel. I don't have to leave the hotel until 9:45 p.m. I'm making good use of this time though by calling radio stations to thank them for playing my songs and for all the support, as well as writing my journals. Tonight our show will be held at Schotzi's and we'll be going onstage at 11 or shortly after. It's going to be an intimate type setting and we'll play a 45-minute set acoustically so it should be a lot of fun! I hope you all have a great evening and God Bless!
