[FM] A Temporary Concert Clip

[Bob Bennett]

I checked with Friend, List Mom and Netiquette Specialist Alan to see if it 
would be okay to post some directions to navigate to a recent concert clip 
of mine which has found its way online.

It's always so hard to communicate nuance in an e-mail, but I'll try with 
what I hope is interpreted as a courteous and non-whining disclaimer. 
Although I am always eager to venture out into the larger world, I play 
primarily churches. It's been this way for about twenty years. I love it. 
Churches are, generally, even more bereft of good acoustic music than the 
culture-at-large. So I have a great amount of fun and have earned a modest 
living these many years.

But, I try very hard to be a good songwriter and not a propagandist. I'm 
always sensitive to the often legitimate concerns of those who have 
gotten  bamboozled and trapped in some sort of "Amway meetin' for Jesus" 
deal. So, that's my gentle disclaimer for those who would rather click to 
the next message.

I would basically like to write as well as Pierce Pettis or Bob Franke do 
when I grow up, but I'm somewhat happily stuck with being me these days! 
One time I told Pierre Bensusan that I was certainly glad he couldn't be 
everywhere at once, so guys like me could still have a job.

:-)

Best regards, Bob Bennett
