Gold City News and Thanksgiving Concert Announcement

From Gold City's e-newsletter of November 14, 2012

WEEKEND REWIND

Gold City had four great dates this past weekend. Thursday, we headed to Buhl, AL to sing for the great folks at the First Baptist Church. We sang to a full church of awesome gospel music fans there. We then headed to DeQuincy, LA where we sang at New Hope Baptist Church. Another great time was had with these wonderful folks. Saturday, we went to First Baptist Church of Livingston, TX. Now, you’d think with Gold City being the guests and all, they’d have treated our football team better than what they did. But despite Texas A & M beating our beloved Alabama, we were greeted warmly and helped the folks there raise money for the cancer organization Relay for Life. Sunday, we capped off a full weekend with an afternoon concert at the First Assembly of God in Malvern, AR. It’s because of promoters and pastors who go the extra mile and fans who come out and support this music we love that we can climb on the bus each week and share Jesus with the world by way of the best music ever. Thanks to you for helping us fulfill our calling!

MARK THE CALENDAR

Tomorrow night, we have a special concert coming up at Mill Town Music Hall in Bremen, GA. The day after Thanksgiving, we have a big annual event in Florence, AL with our friends, The Perrys, Jeff and Sheri Easter, and Karen Peck and New River. Speaking of the calendar, new dates are being added on a daily basis to our schedule. For a complete list, visit our webiste, www.goldcityqt.com or the website of our booking agency, www.bsaworld.com.

I GET DOWN

So many of you are letting us know through emails, Facebook, cards, letters, and in person that the song "I Get Down" is speaking to you. The power of prayer is the biggest weapon we have against Satan, the world, problems, fears, trials, ailments, whatever! The song has a fun, playful feel to it, but don’t let that fool you into thinking this is a fluffy, feel-good song only. There’s a lot of truth and spiritual depth to the fact that we have the key to victory simply through prayer. Thank you for requesting this song be played on your local radio station. It’s a great reminder for us all that we can ask anything in the will of the Father and He will hear!

COMING UP

Next week, we will be sharing some thoughts of Thanksgiving from the Gold City gang. We have a lot to be thankful for. Blessings are all around us. We hope you take time to count a few of yours.

From Gold City's Newsletter of October 31, 2012:

WEEKEND REWIND

Gold City was all over the map this weekend. We started out in Strasburg, VA on Thursday, then made our way to Port Crane, NY. Saturday we were in Cranberry, PA, when Hurricane Sandy started gaining momentum. Guess you could say we sang up a storm, because the rain and wind seemed to follow us right over to Shelby, OH where we finished out the weekend. Great times with great people, singing the greatest music in the world. Not a bad combination at all! And we were glad to have Daniel Riley back on the road with us this weekend after a few weeks off for some sinus surgery. He’s back and sounding great!

THE WEEK AHEAD

It’s a very important time in our nation. On November 6th, we will be electing many political candidates into office, including the head of our nation for the next four years. The privilege to vote is an honor that we should not take lightly or for granted. Many countries around the world do not have the right to let their voice be heard. Thousands of men and women have died defending the freedoms and rights we have in the United States. This is a call to action– pray for wisdom at the voting poll, and exercise your right to vote!

I GET DOWN

Thank you for calling in to your local radio station and requesting our latest single, "I Get Down." We think it is a message that prayer equals hope! So many of you let us know each week in concert that you are fighting battles, and many more of you have those unspoken burdens that are so private, you can’t even share them. But we know that down on our knees is the place to take care of it all. So, keep requesting and listening and knowing that we are lifted up when we get down on our knees.

STORY ALERT

Did you know our Tim Riley is featured in the November issue of Singing News magazine? In honor of Veteran’s Day, Tim was featured along with Les Beasley (retired member of the Florida Boys) and Ray Dean Reese (Kingsmen). These three men served our nation in the Armed Forces. Tim shared about his days in Vietnam. There’s even an old photo of his days with the Dixie Echoes. A must-read!!

ANNUAL EVENT ALERT

Gold City will be one of the featured artists on Friday, November 23rd in Florence, AL at the Florence Coliseum. It’s Alabama’s oldest and largest Thanksgiving Sing. Our friends, The Perrys, Jeff and Sheri Easter, and Karen Peck and New River will be joining us for this fantastic evening. For more information, go to www.billbaileyconcerts.com.
