We were just married on Sunday. During the ceremony three songs were played. Imagine by Lennon, Seven Stones by Lindsay Mac. At the end of the intimate ceremony, we asked for a moment of silence.
We played "in spite of ourselves" The reaction of the crowd was hilarious. Absolute HILARIOUS....the night began right then and there...
I am still getting texts 3 days later..

BS & Joan now something tole me you guys would be Priner Shriners! Have pretty much everything and started from listening to Nanci Griffith (Speed of The Sound Of Loneliness) and the wonderful Bonnie Raitt (Angel From Montgomery) and thought who in the heck is writing these great songs and bought the brilliant compilation 'Great Days’ in 1993 and then never looked back until we lost him!
