Greg & Heather's Southern Gospel Concert Blog, Comments from the Back Row

This is the latest iteration of a McCray Dove group after several previous unsuccessful attempts. This ‘new’ group is a trio instead of a quartet. Tony Peace, the baritone, hits a few low notes, but the consistence of a low voice is obviously missing on all the songs. Once you’re used to Burman Porter and David Hester as members, it’s just not the same.

They have gone back to traditional Southern Gospel, thank goodness. They used to be the in best in Southern Gospel before the drums, steel guitar, twang, and inappropriate on-stage antics.

We enjoyed them and look forward to seeing them again.

• The Lighthouse Girls led off as usual. There are a lot of new girls, so they’re still learning the songs, but they were inspirational as always!
• The McKameys were powerful as usual. Peg always remembers Heather with a hug, that means so much to her.  PS: They announced back in August 2015 the Roger Fortner was coming the road, but we were very pleased to see him with them.

• The Lighthouse Girls led off as usual. They were, as always, inspiring.

• The Chuck Wagon Gang is always good, with a consistent sound, for 77 years now, and tonight was no exception.

were a little too ‘bluegrass’ for us, but we enjoyed the 12 kids and parents from Nebraska.

We had never heard them before. We’re glad these Yankee (Oklahoma, I guess that’s not really yankee) Southern Gospel groups come our way every now & then. We certainly would go hear them again.

We’ve seen them several times and always enjoy them. Great bass.

Always a fantastic Worship experience with Michael Combs.

The Pine Ridge Boys are a traditional Southern Gospel quartet from Inman, SC. This was our 1st time seeing them. They were very personable with the audience. We will absolutely go hear them again.

This was a traditional Southern Gospel quartet. Great sound. I wish more quartets would stick to their roots. We would definitely go see them again.
