from nashville w/love
so, i’m in nashville for what is known as GMA week and was asked to blog about it for cmcentral, an online entity that specializes in all things gospel music related. i thought you might enjoy. also, it seems rather important that you comment so that all of the good people at cmcentral notice your attentive reading and response skillz (yes, with a z) and make life for me better in general. i’ll probably post a few more times before wed, which is the end of the festivities. here’s the link: click here for the official, from my vantage point, behind the scenes of what is called by very informed people – GMA week in Nashville TN. completely awesome.

Oh yeah, dude, I tried for the life of me to be all vegetarian, sadly I do not cary the resolve, or the squirrel hunting skills to cheat on my weaker days days. But I’m still with you in Spirit!
i think i’m the first to comment at the other blog but i’m not sure…..it says it’s awaiting moderation
That’s pretty sweet, Sir David. Maybe this is your year… just maybe.

By the way, pedaling purple dragons would be the best!
You’ve fixed your capitalization issue for the event, but you need apostrophes.
Still, I nearly always laugh when I read your stuff… this wasn’t an exception…
DUDE!!! Im leaving this moring to drive down there from Chicago to be a seat filler for you!
When you get up to play your set or take all the awards you ARE getting, im filling in your seat!
you’re capitalizing words! but why? it just doesn’t look right.
also, i think if you win, you should get a squirrel or raccoon rather than a dove.
He can use capital letters!!!
dave, i tried to post a comment on the cmc blog but can’t see if it showed up.

I was honestly rather surprised also to find that you, David can write sentences in the proper format, with capital letters starting them.
I almost questioned if it was really you who wrote it…
sweet
the comments dont show up on that blog
sad day!
I didn’t even know there was a Gospel Music Channel, but then again, I’m something of a heathen. I’m sad I can’t watch
Good luck, I hope you guys do well and have a great time!
hehe i think i have skillZ
“you’ve got skillx with an x”
i always say you’ve got skillx with an x.
this highly confused me…when you said “i’ll probably post a few more times before wed”
for some reason, my brain kept tricking me into inserting the word “we” between “before” and “wed”….so i kept thinking….before who weds? what am i missing? what happened to toni? and perhaps most importantly, why would festivities END with a wedding, when the wedding should be the beginning!
but there is no “we,” so it all makes sense.
I seldom comment on your blogs, since they are so very deep that my comments would be redundant. But I thought the GMA blog possessed a depth second only to the Apostle Paul in his writing of Romans.
So, I live in Nashville, and I’m rather wishing you would come visit your fanbase at Belmont University if you get a chance this week. I know the quad will be hoppin’ all week with the weather being so nice. We would love to see you.
Fun times, Crowder, fun times….
Enjoy the week!
Heather Veitch from JC’s girls, who loves you guys, she is there in town as well because the documentary about her is at some film festival.
I passed through Waco on the way to a conference in Austin today and thought about you guys. I hope everything goes well in Nashville…
awesomeness!
Did you spell pedal peddle in your blog?
dave,
we watched the dove awards. i laughed. i thought i saw toni doing some of the props?!?!?! i loved the sun at the end! you made the dove awards watchable.

I was planning on being there this week but school got in the way…so frustrating! Do professors not realize there is more to life then papers and finals?!?
I hope you made us proud at the Doves…well you already have with the nominations but hope you brought home all 7 of them
Yeah Crowder!!!!!
haha you wore a suit
Congrats on winning at the doves.
I just pre ordered the dvd, i cant wait!Abraham
Awesome job aat the Doves…congrats! I was so excited to see you win…well deserved!
If you haven’t already, then I feel compelled to point you to russtaff.com, and observe
the resulting action of rolling your cursor across the menu bar of his site. It’s pretty muchthe best laugh I have had today.
your performance at the Doves was ingenious…i loved it!
Random factoid sort of related to your GMA blog: Bible Man is the guy who played Buddy on Charles in Charge.
The sidekick found God and became a religious superhero, and the star, Mr. Baio, is now “40 and pregnant” in VH1 reality hell. Interesting.
@Is4ac - yes, i most definitely spelled pedal peddle in my gma blog. i get thrown when i have to capitalize. wasn’t on my a game, but thanks for pointing it out now that i’m unable to edit it. where are you when i need you?
David,
You have a remarkable writing style. I met you in Jacksonville, Florida and this past week at the GMAs. It was truly my pleasure.
dear david crowder of the david crowder* band.
this is joel stapleton of the four days late….band. although we are referred to simply as four days late.i have a few things to share:a. awesome dove performance.b. i said hello to you at gma sunday night worship last year (2007) as i was walking out of ryman. i believe i made a comment about how awesome and funny the nugent videos were.c. we saw the trailer for your dvd at the radio lunch this year. looks stellar. we were there to promote our very own radio single, glorious king.d. glorious king rocks.e. you guys rock as well.f. i once saw you in a picture with a yellow beatles shirt which had the beatle members names. we have a strikingly similar shirt with the only difference being our names. you can view it here: http://www.fourdayslatemusic.com/FDL/store.htmlg. i would love to give you one.h. if you could provide a dc*b office address of some sort, along with your preferred size to my email linked with this comment, i would send you one.i. you could provide any address that would get said shirt to you. i promise not to come to said address. i am in alabama and gas prices are too high to make the trip.j. i would like for you to witness our rock one day and appreciate the influence of your rock in our rock.k. in all seriousness, you guys are a huge influence to us and we have looked up to you for sometime and it would be an honor to give you our shirt similar to your beatles shirt. i would have given it to you at gma but our paths never crossed…God bless!have a nice day,joel
