w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region>. Praise
God – what a great adventure! It’s amazing when you can go to a
different culture and experience the things that we did. The band was totally
impressed with everything they saw; I’ve been to <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region> three
different times, and I’m still amazed at the difference in culture. But
what’s not different is when you walk on stage and you use rock ‘n
roll to praise Jesus Christ and it works… it works. And when I say rock
‘n roll – yes, there are so many different types. We played a
variety of rock ‘n roll styles and the people who saw us seemed to love
them all.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

font-family:Arial'>We had a ball in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region>; we did six different shows
while we were there. The people were amazing, we had some big shows, and I
think we really gave them something that honored the Lord. We walked away
feeling really good. Yes, we had some difficulties – <st1:country-region
w:st="on">India</st1:country-region> is a very different type of atmosphere;
much different than what I’m used to here in the <st1:country-region
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region> We had
roads that were very scary, and drivers that were even scarier! But they made
it through – and even that was pretty exiting! It was a definite
adventure, one that I’m sorry everyone is not able to experience. But we
did and I totally accept it as a blessing from God.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

themselves – in good circumstances and also the “less than
favorable.” I’ve got five great guys – I’ll name them
all: Roger, JaKael, Rusty, Pete and George. They are amazing dudes –
I’d love to see them perform in the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">U.S.</st1:place></st1:country-region> as well as other parts of the
world. I’m hoping that as our relationship carries on that it could be
the band that I use all the time. If not, that would be a shame because I think
I’ve got a very good band!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

guys, for supporting it! I really believe you faithful fans are getting the
word out, and the word’s coming back and people are realizing we have an
amazing record. I’m totally surprised - well, I won’t say
surprised, but I’m <i style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'><span
style='font-style:italic;mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>honored</span></i> that
the response has been so good. I’m honored for my son-in-law who worked
so hard to produce it and wrote so many of the songs under my direction (as far
as the subject matter) that I wanted to sing about. I think Dan and I, plus all
the other musicians that played and wrote on the album worked very well
together. I’m very happy with the final product and I’m very
pleased with the initial reaction to it. I don’t know what to say except
praise God!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>We tested the songs with a great number of radio
programmers, and the song “Face of God” is out to radio right now
as the first single. Initial reports say there’s a 98 percentile of very
positive “we’ll play it,” “we’re listening to
it,” “very interested” and that’s after just three
weeks of it being out there - so this is VERY good. It’s one of those
things where we don’t want to jump out ahead of ourselves, but we are
very excited about what the future holds!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
