Nashville

Jiggs Interviews Herself:

Are you excited about Nashville?
" Oh yes, very excited, I've never been to Nashville and have heard just wonderfull things about the spirit of the town and the activity...And how could a musician not be excited about going to "Music City?"

Are you prepared for the race?
"Race? There's going to be a race? How far? Do I have to run? Will I get a medal? I thought I was going to make a CD and get discovered?"

Whats the most excited part of the trip for you?
"The road trip will certainly be fun as I'm travelling with dear friends and I just LOVE road trips, but I'm also looking forward to staying in hotels as there is always something cool about hotels...It means youre going somewhere and you have no home in that town..It means at least some of that place is new and undiscovered and I love all places I dont know have have not yet discovered. Also I'm looking forward to the music. Music is laced in every breath I breathe...I could eat music for lunch. I would not shy away to a record deal if presented to me while in Nashville. I would quit my day job immediately."

I've noticed you've not mentioned anything about the race, do you realize you'll be doing a half marathon while there?
"huh? Race? Nashville means music...not race...Its music...the country MUSIC marathon...its a marathon of music right?"

Ok, so obviously you've got other things on your mind...have you trained?
"oh I've been playing music for at least a decade...I have lots of songs ready to play for anyone who asks...yes indeed I've trained!"

And have you trained for the half marathon?
"Huh?"

listless

I'm not sure what is going on in my head, but i'm very uninspired lately. i feel like there is so much more I should be doing, but its like i'm watching life from through a window. like i have no real impact on the story, i just sit and watch it unfold and hope the story starts getting adventurous. I'm chosing to call it uninspired because that still leaves the door open for me to have some kind of impact. Like if i could just muster up some passion for something I would be able to find some great purpose and meaning in what I'm doing. I'm thinking about all the kids going back to school and the college students heading off for a new year, and I'm finding that I'm jealous. My life doesnt cycle like that anymore. There is no rise and fall with the seasons. There is no connection to the calendar. Everyday bleeds by in the same numbing pattern. My clothes barely even change with seasons anymore. everyday finds itself looking exactly like the last: wake up l...

whats your self worth?

People have said, something is only worth what someone would pay for it. If what you're selling, no one is buying, then what you have is pretty worthless. But there are stores out there that sell all kinds of things and so the market makes room for them. People are the same. Some people are beautiful, but useless for more than their looks. Like a painting they are worth a lot because people see them as rare.But, some people can go their whole lives without decorating. Some people are useful and so are worth a lot because they fulfill some purpose. Hardworking, or smart, they are seen has having some value that makes them worth the investment. Then there are people I'd characterize as novelty people. You buy them because you've just never seen anything like them. They're especially entertaing or unique. They don't cost a lot, so you can't pass them up. Then there are bargain people. They don't cost much, arent worth much and don't last long. They fill a s...

Musical Unity: A response to Michael Gungor

When I first started listening to Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) the only people around were Amy Grant and Michael W Smith. Maybe Kathy Tricolli and Sandi Patty...Any maybe Carmen, but why mention Carmen? Shortly before I started listening to CCM there was no such thing as CCM. The 80s were just about a barren wasteland for Christian entertainment. We had a handle on good old Gospel and regular people started writing worship music. My life wouldn't be the same without Keith Green. But then came the 90s. WHAT an AMAZING time!! Right? DC talk, Audio Adrenaline, Newsboys, OC Supertones...Holy Music COW! If you were a young Christian, you could turn your radio up proudly and still feel cool. It was EPIC. From 15-21 I didn't listen to much other than CCM. Only the cool CCM of course. The stuff that the local Christian radio station only played on Friday Nights. Then I hit 21 and was, practically overnight, too cool for CCM. I bought a soapbox on top of which I declared ...
