Yesterday was one for the record books.
Plans had been in place for a couple of weeks for me to see Mercy's Mark for the first time in Lawrenceville, GA Sunday night. I was going to meet Dinana and ride with her.
Saturday I found out that MM would be in Hiram on Sunday morning, so I went, unknown to Dinana.
This proved to be my undoing.
I conspired with the guys to have some fun with Dinana at the concert that night.
Dinana and her friend, Vera picked me up and we headed to Lawrenceville that afternoon.
When we arrived in Lawrenceville for my "first" MM concert, the guys swarmed me, called me by
name and treated me like a long lost brother.
I with I'd had a picture of Dinana's face....
"You know him????"
"Oh, yeah, we've been friends for a LONG TIME".
Dinana and Vera are obviously very LOVED by MM, and we had a good laugh.
Yesterday was a day I'll not soon forget. MM was incredible.....
They exceeded anything I could have possibly imagined, and to see TWO full concerts in one day was almost too much to ask.
Plus, I now have not only another favorite quartet but some new good friends.
It's just gonna take me a long time to get out of the doghouse. LOL 
OK. I've had a few hours to get over the conspiracy to tease me, so now it's pretty funny. I'm glad Jim got to see them twice!
It was a great concert, but I discovered after I got to the concert that I had forgotten to put my memory card back in my camera, so I didn't get any pictures! I hope Jim will post his, since he was on the front row and should've gotten some great ones. Vera and I decided to sit right behind him on the second row. (We're trying to talk ourselves into not sitting so close because supposedly the sound is better further back -- so we compromised a little bit and sat on the second row!!) I also didn't take my little notebook, so I can't give a list of songs either! I just sat there and enjoyed the whole thing with a silly grin on my face!!! We're going to see them again Saturday night in Oneonta, AL, with the Dixie Echoes and Tim Lovelace. There are lots of MMQ fans there, so we're looking forward to seeing some of the friends we've made from other visits to Alabama to see Mercy's Mark.
That's hilarious. 
It was a Lot of fun.....I wish I had a video......
The guys played it SO WELL, and Dinana had NO CLUE.....
For those of you who don't know, Dinana absolutely considers herself Mercy's Mark #1 FAN!!! She routinely drives 3-4 hours to see them when they're that "close" to where she lives. And I'm not kidding! At one concert she went to, Garry Jones actually called her their number 1 fan from the stage! Dinana hasn't been the same since!

That's not quite right --- I call myself their #1 fan (but I've met some others that call themselves #1, too!) --- from the stage Garry said they were singing "All I Need To Know" for their special friend Diana! Garry doesn't call us fans - he calls us friends. That's good enough for me!!

The Mercy's Mark concert in Oneonta, AL was wonderful, wasn't it?!?!?!? And it was very nice meeting you, Scott! I'll try to get some time tomorrow to write up my thoughts about it. It's been a very busy weekend!!

Could Stewart have been playing "Just a Little While" (Just a Little While to Labor / Just a little while to wait...)

I saw the Kingdom Heirs today. Based on the four songs they sang from their new CD, I think it is fabulous.
I always forget how great Arthur Rice sings until I hear him again.

If you saw the Kingdom Heirs today, does that mean that maybe you ate at T's BBQ and Grill?

Afraid not, I left Mrs. Kerrlaw and the kids, watched the Kingdom Heirs, and left to take my parents to the doctor.
They took in the rest of the park and met me at home later.

I know where Tony's is.
But, when I go to Dolly World, I take the back route through Chestnut Hill.

I have a question about concerts. If you attend something like L5's Labor Day celebration (and I have reservations for it) how many concerts does that count as? I know they are scheduled to have four separate shows that weekend with several acts in each show. Would it be four concerts because of four separate shows or just one big weekend-long concert?
