the Long version

Ok..so..i finally have a little more time to write about our adventures here in the great beyond, so where should i start. Well first, Poland is a great country and we arrived right in the middle of their elections of a new president, so its ALOT going on. I was a little nervous about the reception we might get..because..well...the people looked a little 'reserved'. The first concert was outside...and it was standing room only..people crowded in the beautiful outdoor venue..but no one was smiling at first....HUMMM..what is a brutha suppose to do?? Then the MC took forever introducing us in Polish language and when I peaked out, folks were falling asleep...ok im nervous at this point...but a vaulable lesson was learned, whn you have a formula that works, stick to it! and it will work all the time!...and thats exactly what happened. By the time we got finished the people would not stop clapping and called us out for an encore. Even the vice ambassador was up in arms...and by the way we had him singing and dancing. Next we performed at the Ambassadors residence for their 4th of July celebration. Great attendance by all the dignitaries and the important people (smile)..again, im thinkin..this is going to be a tough crowd..everyone had on suits and long dresses, high heels and a lot of makeup...alot of camera folk taking pics of the important folk and all of that!!!...but again, we were blessed to reach the hearts of the people and  gave an impromptu dance lesson...some kind of way we worked the electric slide into one of the songs and as they say in Hollywood, THATS ALL SHE WROTE...it was ON!!! Everyone wanted pictures and autographs and to have long lonnnnng conversations..lol..but we appreciated every moment!!..One guy said he had been coming to that event for 20 years and it was always boring...this had been the best ONE !! We left there and went to a small town called Kielce...had a great concert and then on Krakow for another 4th of July celebratory concert at the cultural center. Its amazing to me how much people really appreciate and love gospel music. So now im tired...lol..but we still have to travel onto Romania tomorrow..whewww...i need a long nap...stay tuned!
