This is my post for Day 4 of the 30 Day Blog Challenge and is the first in a series of posts titled Stepping Out And Moving On.
In yesterday's post, I talked a little about starting the show. When I started doing the radio show, I never imagined some of the things that would happen to me.
One of the first, and best memories I have was going to GMA Music Week in Nashville for the first time. That was a big eye opening experience for me because I was able to see the Christian music industry up close and personal. I was really pretty dazed and confused for a good part of the week because when you hang in the lobby you would see all kind of well known artists hanging out and chatting. I actually got run over by Steven Curtis Chapman and his entourage in the lobby one morning. I met alot of people and I am so proud to still call some of them my friends today. You can read my blog posts about GMA week Here and Here.

Another thing that was really cool was getting my name in the liner notes of a cd. I had an opportunity from my good friend Ben (yes, we met at my first GMA) to bring a band called Over Ashes for a concert at my church. It was the first time in a long while that I had promoted a concert. Everything at that show went great and I really connected with the band and their manager, Matt. The week after the concert, Over Ashes was playing at a showcase at Rocketown at GMA week. I got to hang out with them a little bit and saw them a couple more times during the week. When I bought the CD that August, in the credits, the band added me to the list of people that received special thanks.
I will continue with part 2 tomorrow.
