“Chair Beds.” One For the Books

Has anyone slept on a “chair bed?” We had our first experience of this recently. Let’s set this story up. We were in Arkansas on a Saturday morning. The plan was to head to Tulsa, OK, rehearse that evening, and play Sunday morning. Moffett, our bass player, plays with Ben Rector when he uses a band. It just so happened that Moffett was playing with Ben that Saturday night. The guys and I decided to wait around on Moffett to finish the show with Ben so that we could all ride together. I’m going to give you the reader’s digest version of the story. Moffett finished the show with Ben at 12:40 a.m, Moffett called us at 12:45 a.m. saying their cars had been towed, we picked Moffett, Joe Kane, and Chris Wylie up at the venue, we hunted down their cars, they paid to have their cars released from the towing company, we left Moffett with his car so he could go load his equipment, we headed to Sprindale, Moffett meet us in Springdale, we left Springdale, AR just after 2 a.m. bound for Tulsa. We arrived in Tulsa at the top of the hour — the top of the fourth hour, that is. At that point we decided to sleep at the church. So, we loaded our gear in, found a room with chairs, pushed some chairs together to form beds, and lights out at 4:30 a.m.

Despite the set backs the hours before, we seemed to play well that morning.  Here are a couple of photos of our luxurious, “chair beds.”

RFB Set to Record

We have some exciting news to share with you. We’re set to record a full worship record in July! We’ll be tracking all instruments and vocals the last two weeks of July. Our good friend, Joe Kane is producing the record. Along with some familiar worship songs, the record will also include a few of our original songs. We’re excited to make the record and see how God uses these songs for his glory.  I hope you guys are doing well.  We hope to see you soon!
