News and website updates

Hey everyone, Stephen here. Josh and I had a great time this past Sunday at First Baptist Church of Attica, Mi. The pastor was away at a conference and asked if we could fill his place with whatever it is that we have been doing for the last two years! The people were great, and we had a fine service.
Keep watching our website. I've been having a lot of fun adding new things to it every week. I usually make website changes and update our blog from the computer at my college since my computer at home is still hooked up to dial-up. It takes about six months for anything to load at home, so I just do it at the college when I'm here two days a week. I've posted new stuff recently, and will hopefully be able to add a special new page this week. I want to put in a page dedicated to special concert events that we have coming up. We have a schedule page and consider all of our concerts special, but from time to time, we get to sing for unique events that will feature us with other groups, or there may be something else different that we would want to advertise about that particular event. Hopefully I'll have it up and running this Thursday, and be sure that you check our schedule page and pictures pages for new things as well.

New Website Updates

Hey folks, I just finished putting together another pictures page on our brand new website. The old one was barely even cold in the grave (....woah, I don't know where that came from!) and I've already loaded a new page with more pictures. This one has more of our family and college friends, and well as new concert pics and hilarious shots of Josh just being.....well...Josh!
Our new CD "Instrumental Classics" has arrived and is now up for sale on the store page of the website. It features Joshua and I playing old classics in fun, exciting new ways on songs like "I'll Fly Away", "Come Thou Fount", "Sweet Hour Of Prayer", I've Got That Old Time Religion", "Learning To Lean", and many more! Our new price bundle is 1 CD or DVD for $15.00, or all 5 pieces of product for $40.00!

Lastly, be sure to check our latest schedule page to see if we are coming near your neighborhood. Feel free to come and see us in concert.

Enjoy the new pics!

Weekend News and Red Bull

This past weekend my brother and I went to an all-night youth lock-in....no, we didn't stay all night long. I may be nineteen, but I just don't have the energy I used to. I used to be able to stay up all night on nothing but a pixie stick and a cup of Kool-Aid. Now you can't keep me up past eleven with a Red Bull, a 5-Hour Energy AND a pot of black coffee. Oh well, I guess we all get old sometime....I was just kind of hoping it would happen to me after another fifty years.
Anyway, we did the lock-in that night and had a great time. The church put us up in a lovely house with some fantastic people (thanks again!) and we had the Sunday Morning service the next day. All in all it was a great weekend (except for the squirrels.... never give a squirrel peanut butter...).

How To Sleep All Day, Eat Nothing All Winter, And Still Be Fat

Sorry I haven't written a blog in a while, but you know how it is when with peanut butter and snails.... Anyway, My life has been pretty busy lately... okay, it's been so-so...all right, it's just plain been crap... anyway, I was wondering: how do bears eat so much, sleep all winter, and still come out in the spring fatter than a bloated cow. You would think that they would come out looking like most Hollywood actresses.

Oh well, I guess I have to go to class now.

New Website Changes

Hey folks, sorry that I've been away for a while again, but I've got some great news. Our website now has a great new pictures page! Now that our website has been overhauled. I can update it myself from any computer that I want to. I recently figured out how to add new pages to it and put in whatever I want, so I'm very excited about the new possibilities. Eventually, we're going to upload our new concert and kid's show posters for download like we did with our old black & white ones on the old website. I also am considering other possibilities to include later. For now, enjoy the new pictures from our road experiences, studio shots, family, college friends, or whatever else I put up. I'll try to update it with new pics from time to time, and I'll be sure to include a notice of that here as well.
Our new instrumental CD has been shipped and is ready for sale. I'll put it up for sale on the store page as soon as I can, but you can order it any time by calling (810) 653-0089 or e-mailing us at foresterministries@yahoo.com .
Also, be sue to check our schedule page of the website to see where we are in concert. Come out to see us if you can!
