Rob performs at concert
What does a young boy do once he’s learned a few chords on guitar? He forms a band, of course. They practice in the garage at least once a week and dream of making it big.
Rob’s friends played together for a while. Since no one had the money for the equipment they needed, the band eventually fizzled out. Rob continued to study music and eventually became the Music Director for Faith Community Church in Littleton, CO. But … he always wanted to play in a rock band.
Thursday, Rob sang his heart out at a Christian rock concert with his new band, Sling and a Stone. The large stage had monitors, great sound equipment, and professional lighting. The entire time, Rob grinned from ear to ear like a kid in a candy store. It was such a pleasure to see his happiness and gratitude that night! We all felt that somehow, we had a small part in helping him make his dream a reality.
When Rob apologetically asked the crowd, “Is it too loud?” none of us could deny him the pleasure of hearing his music at that volume (but we didn’t ask him to turn it up, either …).
