There Will Come A Day

Things going well. Accellerating somewhat since my move to Swansea.

I perform in a new comedy sketch in my new Church, The Elim City Temple, on evening of Sunday 19th October. Wrote it in 2 hours and is set in an A and E department, hopefully going to be good and funny. Certainly the fastest sketch I've ever written. As I was told about it in the morning service I wanted to get it handed out in the evening service. I actually work best under pressure!

Got the phone call offering me the part of "Detective Fix" in Around The World in 80 Days which will be performed at the Dylan Thomas Theatre in Swansea in January. A lovely theatre and a great part, not the lead, but definitely the comic element in the show which makes a nice debut for me with a new company.

Had to post the video below because it is one of my favourite gospel songs and performances of all time, I put it here because it's also the kind of song you wouldn't hear unless a friend reccommended it. Will that's what I'm doing!

Hadn't heard it in years, it's Faith Hill's version of "There Will Come A Day" which she performed with this marvellous gospel choir at the concert for heroes which was put together just 2 days after the september 11 attacks. Stop for 4 minutes and listen to this truly uplifting, inspiring song. I can find some Christian music cringey and offputting but this for me, is what gospel music should be all about. A fantastic song with the greatest message any human being could ever hope to hear. Enjoy, and Beverley Trotman I want this on your new album!!! And then as a single!!

Is this song on a NOW CD Dave? Good to see that your music taste has got even manlier since your departure from my shores...

I can guarantee that right now you have at least 3 CD's in your car of 80's music.
