Six minutes of heart wrenching story telling. Did you know his father was THE Anthony Perkins? And yes, any performance in a house of worship adds to the specialness.

I was sooo blown away!! So much heartfelt energy. I am glad they finally got those songs I heard on an album. In Dearland is one of my favorites for 09..so far. Did they break out the harmonium?

His father died when he was young, and then his mother died on one of the planes on 9/11. It's a great story that you should listen to - I had never heard of him but was very moved by his story, his music, and what it all meant. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=102054404 There was just a moving story about him on NPR the other morning.

In a near parallel world, I played "Doomsday" on my radio show last night. With the time difference, you could have very well been seeing it live about the time I was hearing the horns over this way. That's some beauty. That woulda been some sweet sweetness, right there. In a near parallel world, I played “Doomsday” on my radio show last night.
