Paul Potts (click on link here)

I first learned about Paul Potts, at church, last June, when John Lynch played the "Britain's Got Talent" youtube video of Paul's first audition during his sermon. (Thanks John!) Of course, as many of you probably know, Paul won the competition and is now touring the world promoting his first album.

I'm particularly excited because Paul will be appearing for one night only on March 27, 2008, at the Ikeda Theater in Mesa.

Of all the venues in the US, like California, New York, and Florida; he's also singing here. It's going to be lots of fun.

The concert is Larry's birthday gift to me. We couldn't even get two seats together so off I go on my own. In fact, the concert sold out shortly after I purchased my ticket. There are hundreds of unhappy people on the Paul Potts myspace page. I'm sad for them but happy for myself.

This is all very strange for me since there is a little known secret about myself that I'll dare to share: I'm not all that fond of music. Wow, I said it! That's kind of different, isn't it? When most people describe themselves, they say they like music, and then they add more things to their list. I don't hate music, but I don't have an overpowering affinity for it either. I'm happy driving in my car without the radio on. Worship music doesn't always make me worshipful, sometimes-but not every time.

So anyway, when I say I like Paul Potts-it's a BIG deal.
