Though the title sounds like something positive, perhaps Byron just found some cool new music, it is, in fact, a negative. I’ve tried and have come up with little. This funkhouse thing is pretty cool. I get the opportunity to “do what I do”. And yet… The OTB stuff is good. Not going great, mostly because I’m stuck inside my own head. A meeting this afternoon gave me a lot of hope. I love meetings. I love the collaboration.
So, where does the “fan” thing come? Well, that’s what I’ve become. I’m a fan of great music. I record a little. I encourage some people. I even have a few conversations here and there. And for some reason, perhaps it’s just me, nothing seems to materialize. I’m become, “just” a fan.
Now, I do recognize, that in several time in my life, just when I “give up”, that’s when God is able to truly use me. And, I also recognize, that right now, perhaps my best or even my only time is allotted to OTB. Some very exciting things happening with them. SO, perhaps I don;t need to walk into the Waterdeep/Derek Webb show as a “somebody”. I am a fan.
