MetroLive at National Festival

Well, today our band METROLIVE performed at a big festival near Chisinau. I came to only one conclusion - next festival should be hosted by us! First of all, we couldn't find it, then it started late, it was really cold and not whole lot of people!


We were the fifth band. The bands before us were good, but of course they don't have a lot of practice, so they looked worried and nervous. So, when we came on stage, we didn't care how it would sound (and the equipment was not good, neither the people who worked on the sound) we just wanted to have a great time. And we did!


We saw many people who attend Metro or used to come, they were really excited - we got so much support, they screamed and sang along. We performed well and after that there was a crowd of people waiting to take some pictures with us or just talk!


We are really glad that it came out this way, because that way we can stay in touch with people who know us but they don't go to church. They asked when is our next event and we gave them our web site and phone numbers, and we met new people who really liked our performance. One thing is when you play in your own club or place, but another thing is when you take part in something big, something community does and appreciates when you support it.


Here is a picture of the festival.

Dear Andre

Thank you for sending this information you us! It looks like things are going really well for you. I wanted to inform you that we will be sending you funds from our church to support your ministry and have your bank information. We have tried e-mailing you multiple times to notify you of this, but our e-mails keep bouncing back to us as being blacklisted for spam and will not be delivered to you. The service that is bouncing back our e-mails is Sorbs at http://www.sorbs.net, and they require a $50 fee for us to be removed from the blacklist, which I think you would agree is very unreasonable, as we don't send spam!

We just checked with our server here, and they can't help us to get off the blacklist with Sorbs, so they advised us to contact you somehow and ask if you could find a way to not use the Sorbs service or find another service that is easier to use? I would imagine it is not just us that are having problems sending you e-mails but many others. We really want to remain in contact with you and think you are doing a fantastic work. Please write me back to let me know you have received this message. Please also let us know when you have received the funds into your account and how much you have received, so we know the funds have come to you safely. You should receive them sometime within next week. We pray that you will be blessed and that you have a wonderful weekend!

With every blessing,
