Party "Crashers"

Our band, Running In Circles, was asked to play a friend's family reunion/neighborhood party yesterday. It's always good to get paid to practice. :-)

We had a good time, were told to eat a lot (lots of eastern European heritage in the household), and sounded really good. The host and the band received a good number of compliments from the party-goers. The highlight came when the host told us one of the comments from his guests was, "wow, we didn't know you had a really good band playing today!"

I guess expectations were low. lol!

Somehow I'm reminded of John 2: 8-10.
8Then he told them, "Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet." They did so, 9and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now."

Hopefully these guests didn't have too much to drink! :)
