On Friday, I had the opportunity to play the boards as our staff band did a rendition of Bustin Loose in honor of Chuck Brown. I ain’t gon’ lie, I was pretty nervous. Not that he woulda been all able to single me out and say something, but it’s just the point. Bustin Loose is definitely in my 50 favorites, so I would’ve wanted to do it justice if it had just been the students in the audience, but with HIM there? Pssshhhh. But I wasn’t really tryin to crush it, I just wanted to be easy and play my role.
Expanding a little bit, what this really makes me think of is this: I was seriously pressed because the author/composer of a song I really like was there when I played that song, yet it’s sometimes hard to keep that same kind of focus when it comes time to realize that God, the creator of everything, is always there. Hm.
