So, John asked Jen and I to play background music during this week’s Thanksgiving service. We were talking about this last night, and I told Jen “we need to come up with a name.” (Because I’ve always wanted to be a part of band with a name besides “worship band” or “High School marching band.”) I said “how about ‘I can’t believe it’s not butter!’ in jest. When she repeated back that phrase, I thought she said “I can’t believe it’s not better.” And then we just laughed, because that’s such a great name. (Not that I think when we play people would say to each other “I can’t believe it’s not better!”) But it’s a fun name that really amused me.

That’s great! Kinda like ‘No Longer Music’!!!
LOL! No longer music!
Anna, is she dissing us?
How about “string cheese” get it? S-t-r-i-n-g cheese….or if we wanted to be witty, it could be ’string cheez’
Or ‘11 stringed boogaloo’
or ‘guitola’
or ‘the Pixie Chix’ (and we could wear Pixie costumes)
or ‘Anna & Jen’
“Stringsploitation”
[...] See what Anna has to say about us playing at bluer on Saturday night. It’ll be the first time I’ve performed in front of a group since the ninth grade…and then, I was snuggled nice and tight into the Orchestra where no could really see or hear me. We can’t wait! I still have my black 1986 orchestra formal my mom made me tucked in my hope chest, wonder if I could squeeze into it?This will be a big day for ‘big girl viola’. She’s got a permanent “outside voice”, and would appreciate being able to use it once without drowing out all other sounds. [...]
NLM is a Stieger band fronted by David Pierce. Very amazing band. Not that they sing/play awesomely, but the message is AMAZING! and VERY STRONG.
I still like “the all-star band”. you guys will always be stars in my eyes.
Daniel 12:2-3
Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. 3 Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever.
Philippians 2:14-16
Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe 16as you hold out the word of life—in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.
love yas!
