Gaither Homecoming in Knoxville!!!!.......

A Glorious Evening!

Last night was a glorious one in downtown Knoxville.  The Bill Gaither Gospel Homecoming event filled the downtown Knoxville Civic Coliseum with joyous gospel singing and marvelous Christmas music.

The state-of-the-art sound and video systems revved up the overflowing crowd...a rowdy bunch that included every Protestant denomination imaginable---Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, etc, etc, etc.

The Martins

There was excitement in the air as the Cinderoo and I found our seats.  Cindy wolfed down a massive hot dog as Bill Gaither took the stage.  All of our favorite artists appeared and wowed us with their fabulous talent.

Gordon Mote

David Phelps

There was the hilarious and multi-talented Mark Lowry; The incredible Isaacs (I have a not-so-secret crush on Sonja Isaacs, but Cindy understands because she has one on Mark Lowry); the mind-blowing A Capella group, the Martins; Gordon Mote on the gospel piano; Buddy Greene on the guitar and harmonica; the best bass singer in the world in Gene McDonald; and the incredible voices of David Phelps and Michael English; and so much more.

It was three and a half hours of sheer ecstasy.  We dropped into bed at midnight, with Christmas Carols and visions of sugarplums dancing in our heads.......
