I admit I was never much of a CCM fan.
Many years ago I served as a board member for our local crisis pregnancy center, and we held a benefit concert with Phil Keaggy at a large church edifice in the community.
My job was to act as “greeter” at one of the doors with the specific assignment not to let anyone into the auditorium with food or drink … no questions asked.
Just before the scheduled start time for the concert this rather short, funny looking gent in a beret comes walking toward me with a cup of something in his hand. Needless to say he was not going to get by me, and so I stopped him and politely told him that no one was allowed into the auditorium with a beverage. Turns out the funny looking gent was Phil Keaggy himself. Although I saw his picture on our advertising, I did not recognize the man standing before me as the same person. And no one had warned me that he would be entering from the back of the auditorium.
That incident didn’t help with my appreciation for CCM.
