Nashville Music City..... and what a crazy place it is! It is definitely the country and western capital of the world! All the boys were so excited because there are more guitars in Nashville than anywhere else in the world and the boys love looking for guitars. Its also home of the only Christian tattoo parlour in the universe, or so we are aware of. A big shout out to Billy Joe and all the Christian tattoos.
We had an incredible time being hosted by Michael W. Smith. He is amazing as is his beautiful wife, Deb, their kids and even their dog was pretty nice as well. We stayed out at the Smith's farm. I don't think there can be more fun than to be driving 4-wheelers in the middle of the night while chasing deer! We have some memories we will cherish forever.
Our UNITED concerts were held at Rocketown. We had to host two on the one night because there were so many people coming from all over to worship with us. As it was the final night of the tour, everyone gave it absolutely everything and God turned up in a big way. Rocketown is an unbelievable place. It was Michael W. Smith's vision that established this facility in downtown Nashville. They have the coolest skate park, a large venue for bands to play, huge café hangout areas and a downstairs section for hardcore bands. It's all about reaching the youth of Nashville with a message of God's love. You can check it out at www.rocketown.com.
What a way to finish what has been an amazing tour!!! We want to thank all those who came to Nashville because we realise many people came from different places across the U.S. and we look forward to being back in the States again next year.
A big "Thank You" to Michael W. Smith! You are the best and we were so humbled by your servant heart. JD and myself will never forget the push-ups! We really need to make sure the worship, work-out DVD happens!
Now it's time to head back to Sydney. It's a long flight, but everyone is looking forward to being back in church and seeing the people they love!
Keep Changing the World, Phil and the United Team |
