Reply to “AD” (#65),

To answer your question…the mention of Joyce’s (of The Martins) “recent conversion” was posted as a comment under the Dec. 19th “OPEN THREAD” heading. It is comment #44 by “Jay”.

I tried to find it earlier for you, knowing that I HAD seen it before, but it appears that the ’search’ function on this site won’t work on ‘more recent’ posts! But, I happened to run across it today…so, here ya go! Hope it helps!

#67, No I’m not Connie. However, I’m a huge fan of Kim, Dean, and Connie. Glad to see you agree with me about Dean and his talent. How come he flies under the radar so much and people don’t note his tremendous delivery of a song? He’s always nothing but nice off the stage, however on stage he seems distracted to me.
And I’m with you Corn_Husker, I’ve seen some scary fans at SG concerts, but it does make for cheap entertainment.

Is “ConnieHopper’s#1Fan” really Connie?

As for Dean, I think he’s one of the best voices in s/g today. If he looks hateful or angry on stage, it could be he’s thinking about all the sound and video, what’s coming up next, who’s moving around in the audience, etc, and not about WHAT he’s singing. There can be a lot of distractions, and hate or anger may not be what he’s thinking inside at all.

Just a consideration.

Big surpise Anything Crabb is my favorite,
however I do like alot of Southern Gospel
groups, which I was introduced to, by
THE CRABBFEST venue. I saw no one at
any of their concerts that scared me.

Could somebody direct me to the original Joyce Martin story/posting?

And I agree with BL’s #64, by the way….

#43 Melinda “They NEVER have a line up and let the Spirit lead them through out the program! ”
Is that supposed to be a good thing? I think it shows ill-preparation on their part. Don’t get me wrong, being open to where the Spirit leads is incredibly important and I’m sure they do a wonderful job. But I don’t see anything wrong with having a set program. If the Spirit leads them to do something else, then great! But at the same time if something happens or someone misses a cue, there’s a plan to fall back on and they could avoid what one commenter referred to as “deer in the headlight” looks. I think not having an idea of how the concert’s going to go conveys a lack of interest on PV’s part. Just my opinion though.

“inlighten”???
…uh, no, I better not comment, that would be too easy…

Umm, Rita (post 60)…

…being a fan of the Perrys or Gold City does NOT make you uneducated!

BTW, Rita, I believe it’s enlighten with an “E”, not inlighten (with an “I”).

Rita, don’t take things so personally. I sell product every year for a well known quartet at NQC and I welcome you to come and sit with me this year and watch the people who buy CD’s from The Crabbs vs. people who buy CD’s from Gold City. It would open your eyes. I never said you were uneducated. However, when you ask a question the correct punctuation is a ?, and not a !
I make typing mistakes too, don’t sweat it, but I am a bit curious. Who is your favorite SG artist?

Guess what I like the Perry’s and Gold City
too. How does that make me uneducated!!
If it is so obvious–please inlighten me!

Anyone can understand talent when they
hear it!!!!

#58, I didn’t make a crack about the Crabbs, I stated the obvious. I love all the Crabb people, but their fans are the polar opposite of The Perrys’ Fans or Gold City’s Fans. If that statement doesn’t apply to you, then don’t be offended. And #56, do you generally look for spiritual relevance on this website? I enjoy the website, but if I want a spiritual experience then I shoud probably look elsewhere.
And Sissy #57 your comments always make me laugh. I seldomly see eye to eye with you, but you do make me laugh.

Reply to # 54 I MISS THE CRABBS!!!!!!!!!!!

What was that crack about their fans
being uneducated!!!!! All of the new
Crabb family groups are doing God’s
work and are seeing souls saved!!
You do remember IT’s ALL ABOUT SOULS!

IF A CRABB CONCERT SCARES YOU, MAYBE
YOU SHOULD STAY INSIDE!

#43- Are you the same Melinda that has been riding on the shirt tail of Poet Voices? Of course you will say good things so you can get your pay check. Is it in your job to come to Poet Voices rescue on a message board. You just don’t want to be replace.

I’m getting off the message board now because it sounds like the Poet Vices themselves has been doing all of this writing. It is pretty bad if a group has to get on a message board to get attention.I’m going to another thread.

Wow, this blog has become about as spiritual as a Poet Voices Concert.

#53, You’re welcome!
Corn_Husker, I bet if you asked Poet Voices, they’d be happy to segment a portion of their concert and sing the hits of Jefferson Airplane! Especially since Ben Ridge # 39, has informed us that Poet Voices is now doing “shows”. Tell me Ben, was it complete with costume changes, stage props, and a fog machine? Or perhaps it was a more scaled down show with a brief popcorn purchasing intermission? You’re certainly entitled to your opion and I’m just giving you a hard time, but I can’t imagine that any of those 3 gentleman were merely “performing”. I’ve always believed that they have a heart for worship.
