No autographs, please!

My life has been full of weird little moments of awesome experiences. I've gotten to make music around the globe, eat snails in France, and even record music with some amazing musicians. But one moment just recently stood out in my memory. When I first moved to Nashville, back in 2001, I spent about three or four months traveling with a Christian-Rock act. Byron Keith was the guy's name. That was a pretty fun time, until September 11th struck and we started losing gigs because of the economic crunch the churches and such were feeling.

During one trip to Wilmington, I got to do something really neat. Our guitarist had a mildly unhealthy obsession with Dawson's Creek. OK, let's face it, any obsession with that show is very unhealthy, but at least it's off the air now. So, Marty decides he is going to take a promo package to Screen Gems studios in Wilmington, because he thinks it is his destiny to get on the show and meet Katie Holmes. A few hour later, he gets a call, and they ask him if he would like to do some extra work. They actually need a few extras, and guess what...the first and last episode of Dawson's Creek that was worth watching was born (and guess which one of us got the most face time). I would direct the viewing audience to the following time markers for this video: 0:45, 1:19 and 1:52. Look over the "director's" left shoulder, and behold!

And without further ado, Eli's Creek!
