Following Where You Are Lead

April 30, 2005 by Dennis Baker 

That was the under riding theme in David Wilcox’s concert last night. Weaving through story and song so fluidly, as only an excellent folk singer can do, Wilcox shared of his current life circumstances that he will follow. The evening was soothing, romantic, and just right even if we were sitting in uncomfortable pews. If you are ever in San Diego check out Acoustic San Diego, and go listen to some great folk music.

The best part of the evening was a couple we met by the name of Buzzy and Beth. They are a young thirty-something couple, Beth 32 weeks pregnant and Buzzy the quintessential postmodern with a shaved head, squared off glasses, and blue zip up hoody over a stripe green polo. They came down from Orange with Buzzy’s parents. They walked up to us before the concert saying they saw as at dinner and wanted to ask us over, but did not. By the time we finished talking and the concert started we learned that we had met a couple close to our hearts or to quote Buzzy “from the same tribe”. Beth is a nurse at Children’s Hospital, Orange County and knows a mutual nurse friend of Karen’s. Buzzy is a self proclaimed pastor helper. He works for a Methodist organization. We talked ALOT about the arts in the church and shared many passions and books that inspired us. Imagine what we would have missed if Buzzy did not follow where he was lead.

    I just love the fact that someone the world goes by the name of Buzzy.
