Dove Awards tonight

Tonight on the Gospel Music Channel is the 39th annual GMA Dove Awards. You might be asking yourself what's that? It is the christian music version of the Grammys and this is the first year that they have ever shown it live. Normally they tape it and a month or two later some channels pick it up and show it in a condensed version. Gospel Music Channel has been showing a show and today will be showing them all day called best of the Doves and it has been cool to go back and see some of these artists and moments in the show. I really enjoyed a couple of years ago when Kutless was on there doing Shut Me Out complete with guitar spins and rockin' just a cool moment. That show also had one of the coolest endings as well, normally at events like this they go out with a big spectacular bang but this went out with a bigger bang. I tried to find it on You Tube but couldn't find it but it was the first time I ever heard this version and brought it to worship team practice and we still do it today. They ended that show with Chris Tomlin doing How Great Is Our God with the How Great Thou Art part in there. They start out with HGIOG and brought it up to speed and people were singing and praising then they slow it down with HGTA and the band stops playing then Chris stopped playing and slowly backed off the mic and the crowd was just singing away and next thing you know the band and him are walking off the stage but the audience is still singing HGTA chorus and that is how the show ended. Gives me chills just thinking about it and I am not a big Tomlin fan but that was cool.

We are going to have a guest come over and watch them with us, Naomi Miller from Joy Fm is coming over to watch them with us so that will be fun, she has helped me out over there with the radio side of things so I thank her for that. Speaking of the radio yes I will be back over there Friday night from 10-11 and then again on Saturday from noon to 3 so check it out.
