Tonight was fun. Omar and I and another guitar player friend spent and hour and a half learning a bunch of old rock songs and then went to Finn's in Santa Cruz and played music for the patrons for 2 hours. The highlight was the last 30 minutes of music which we didn't learn or practise until we turned the page and started playing them live for the first time - great fun! People enjoyed the music and that's always a joy.
It was really fun to get out and play for people again - we played songs by John Mayer - Elton John - Switchfoot - Men at Work - Brian Adams - Omar - Tom Petty - The Beatles - Billy Joel - Chris Tomlin - The Police - Kenny Loggins - Otis Redding - Steve Miller - Les Emmerson and John Mellencamp.
Omar and I have had a vision to be out playing music around town to become a part of the local music community. We need to be outside the 4 walls of the church campus to Incarnate and be part of Santa Cruz if we ever hope to reach people who are not followers of Jesus. How can YOU incarnate into YOUR community in greater ways?
