Well, what can I say, Chris Rice preformed at the Haymarket theater last night for a capacity crowd of about 400. I was blessed to get there a bit early and got a killer fourth row center seat. It was great to finally see someone who I admire as an artist so much. He is so humble and just plain goofy, he freely admits to that, he seems like a kid in a man's body. We should all be like that. His songs, if you are not familiar with them are beautifully crafted songs of love, faith, and our relationship to God.He played for about two hours, alone. Just him, a 6 string acoustic guitar and a keyboard. He forgot a chord or two in a couple of older songs, but ad libbed acapella like a champ and had us all singing along. The best part about this show is that it didn't cost a dime, he preformed for free. The show was not announced on the radio or advertised at all, it was strictly word of mouth from fans who read his blog. I will be there tonight at Liberty University in Lynchburg, as he does it again! Another great night from a great guy, free!
