Servant Sudden Death

Since the first days I knew about this possible cancer thing I've fallen back in love with this album by Servant, specifically the song Sudden Death. I cried and cried as I listnened to it. Interesting story. Apparently Servant the band was part of a Christian community. During their recording of the album World of Sand, there was an accident in which three young men of the community were killed in a terrible head on crash. That is the story of the song "going to a dump and gertting in crash." Wikileaks says that the song "Sudden Death" was written by three members of Servant. Then the song Come Jesus Come concludes what wiki calls "catharsis". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kiKeyd-rKE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sS5zQQKeuC8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuqT8sV-TK0

Tuesday

wrote a new song "Johnny" Got great reaction at Bogarts in Seal Beach, first time in long time. A guy named Tim came up and said it was a powerful song. A Jewish lady came up and asked about song. She said she doesn't know Chrsitianity so seh didn't know the end line "Inasmuch as you've done to the least," but Tim expalined it to her. Was going to do werewolves of london with xxx but ran out of time went to alfady and got videos ready for Thursday. will do zakir naik episode Roisin called and asked about me and talked to me a long time. She prayed for me. God sends angels as you need. one of the great friends of late has been Michael too. He just wants to rock n roll. but always is very supprotivie of my music. Even though he's Muslim he tells me God has a purpose for my life to spread His message. 😄

Around 830 a.m. I got a call from Jennifer, very gracious she told me that my authorizaiton came through and she sent everything to UCI and a nurse will call me when things are ready. whew, so relieved Sami called and prayed for me and encouraged me.
