joshua james, part II

The first time we saw him was at the The Hotel Cafe in L.A. with a good crowd of people.
Part II was quite different. He came to the Handlebar in Greenville which could easily hold as many, if not more than the Hotel Cafe, but that’s assuming as many people in South Carolina know who Joshua James is as in California.
Well, they don’t. He played before a crowd of maybe 20 people. Yes. twenty.
Once on stage he said, “We are few tonight… but mighty, I guess”.
No matter the crowd size though, he still played, and he played with a passion that we’ve come to expect from him. and nothing less.
He believes what he sings and is deeply affected by it. All those who came witnessed a true performer.
We can’t wait to see him again. Until next time…
book sale

driving home last night, corey and i spotted a big, yellow sign advertising the greenville county library book sale! much to our delight, it was still going on this morning when we arrived ( i was afraid we had missed it). i love library book sales. you can’t beat the prices, and it is so much fun to spend a morning digging through piles of old books and uncovering treasures. when we drove up, there was no parking and people were leaving the building with boxes of books in their arms. because i’ve only been to library book sales in arab, i was a little worried that there wouldn’t be anything left. in arab, the only car in the parking lot is mine, and the only people inside are me and jenni and the little old lady who takes up money. but, oh my word. today there were shelves and shelves of books and crowds of people. corey and i spent an hour or so perusing, and ended up leaving with a box of our own.
