Probably the only listies that you'd have problems clicking with are Drew
and Bruce. They're just so hard to talk to in person... :)
...or maybe not. Actually, quite honestly, I don't think there's a listie
that I've met that hasn't been completely cool and easy to get along with.
OtR fans are the nicest people, from what I can tell...

Yay! After last year's fest, I swore I wouldn't go back unless the line-up
improved. Well, the first 7 confirms for 2000 are already an improvement,
IMO. I think I'm gonna go this year... I just wish Caedmon's Call would do
it again. The first year I did C-stone, CC almost cancelled, but Derek and
Todd (or maybe it was D & Garrett) played a stripped-down "guitar with
drum" show.
And Rich Mullins got on stage and played "Hope to Carry On" with them.
That was a good time. Only to see Rich pass away a few month after that...
I'm sad.

I think the nasally vocals are only a third (or so) of their sound... the
tunes where Cliff and/or Danielle sing lead vocals aren't quite that way.
Actually, I think Derek's vocals are more of a "nasal sound meets
sore-throat sound." I love his songs, though. His tunes seem to have the
more personal element to them...
Anyway, that had nothing to do with the Ball, just my thoughts on a great
band... woohoo!
Where'd all the color go,
