If you feel discouraged
When there is a lack of color here, please don't worry lover.
Because it is really nursting at the seems.
I can easily say that I feel fairly disheartened, just a little bit. Last night at the battle of the bands we were the first band to play. We played in front of about 20 people. Almost to the literal fact. It was hard to sit theere through out the night and watch more and more people come in. By the time it was towards the end there must have been a few hundred people there. Some of those bands totally deserved those few houndred people to play infront of. Others didnt. I mean yea, I think we were given the short end of the stick in that deal. Maybe I am just full of bitterness. Maybe it is just me.
Maybe God is trying to teach me something. Maybe it is to not be bitter. That would kindof be funny cause things like this just seem to make me more and more bitter. Thats my issue aside from the band. Maybe God is telling me that I need to be the servent first.

i completely agree that it would be discouraging to watch more and more ppl come in after the fact that your band played. But i also completely agree that you need to be the servant first. I think God wants you to play for him first and formost, regardless of how many other ppl are listening. Even if you had only 5 ppl listening, wouldnt it be worth it if changed just one person's life? i dont know if that makes sence. Every band goes through it, no matter how well they play. Anyways, hoping to hear y'all soon enough. Keep it up
well i will start by saying that is my favorite death cab for cutie song...next i will say that i am sad to hear the night didn't go as planned...i would have loved to be there but probably about halfway through your set was when i was trying desperatley to plow myself out of the snow (one of the numerous times i got stuck this weekend)..excuses excuses i know..but seriously zach, don't let this get you down..i am pretty sure you have it figured out in your head (with regards to what God may be trying to teach you) it's just that what's going on in your heart is lagging behind a bit...b/c it hurts when things are unfair in life and when you don't have control over a situation but you can't let that bitterness get the best of you...someone had to go first and even though it was crappy that it was you guys, i am sensing you are going to grow from this experience so maybe it was a good thing afterall.
maybe this will cheer you up? (jk im trying kk? :) )
tonight i listened to your cd: espescially #7 and that really is my favorite. love it.
