NQC 2007 – Thursday

Of course the big event of the evening was the fan awards.? After that we got to see performances by (in order):

Kingdom Heirs Band
Brian Free & Assurance
LeFevre Quartet
King’s Heralds
Freemans
Lesters
Jeff & Sheri Easter
Karen Peck & New River
Legacy Five
Greater Vision
Reggie Saddler Family
Mark Trammell Trio
Perrys

I’ll not go into detail about the song selections for the evening.? I felt like just sitting? back and listening for the evening but I will give a couple of comments.?

Award for the most embarrasing moment of the evening goes to MC Jerry Goff for announcing Legacy Five as “Group Of The Year” when the Booth Brothers has taken the award a couple of hours earlier.? Legacy Five didn’t quite know what to do for a few moments but carried on and did a great set.

The best part of the evening for me was the big finish with the Mark Trammell Trio and The Perrys.? Daniel and I were talking about the transition between the groups being one of the best we had seen.? Mark Trammell sang a verse and chorus of “Who Am I” and then walked off stage and passed the microphone to Joseph Habedank for the second verse.?

I was really skeptical about seeing The Perrys with this lineup, but they certainly impressed me.? I had never heard Nick Trammell sing and had only heard Joseph sing the baritone.? I thought that Joseph was strong on the lead and Nick complimented well with the baritone.? Of course, Libby and Tracy were both great, which was no surprise.?

The lineup tonight was good, even better than the night before.? Can’t wait to see the groups tonight.
