Who is B-Wack? This is:
B-Wack, otherwise known as Bilbo-The-Beatmaster, Soulpatch, or Jeremy, plays drums for the David Crowder Band. Every night he performs his percussive wizardry from his throne of leather and steel. With wooden sticks in hand, and a full heart in his chest he beats his instrument into submission with such commanding force that leaves every listener awestruck and wanting more. And today I sit beside him in a small starbucks in El Paso, Texas exploring the “WWW” for that which may arrest our attention.
Today is a day off. The first breather of a few that we have during this seven week tour. Last night was a great way to end the first leg. We played at the only outdoor venue of the whole tour. It was hot, it was humid, and it was very country.
Even the name of the venue says it: “Floore’s Country Store”. This is one of the most interesting venues I have ever played. Sitting a few miles outside of San Antonio this country store was not much of a store at all, but a weathered and historic venue that has had the likes of B.B. King and Willie Nelson singing from the stage. Though Floores sits a bit off of the beaten path, the 3200 person venue was a few hundred oversold, which always makes for a fun time.
It was a great night. So thanks to all who came out for it.
Tomorrow is Albuqueque. Looking forward to it.

Phil,
Dude…last nights show at the Fillmore was epic.
I’ll confess that I hadn’t heard of you before the show (we’ve been Crowder fans since the “suburban and a trailer” days)…but your voice, passion, charisma, etc are amazing.
You are truly blessed with talent…and we have been blessed to hear you. Praise God!
Hey Phil…What ya doin’????? uhhh…Phil ????? Bloggers to Phil….come in Phil…..
And now … it’s been one week.
Thought you’d like to know.
Phil come to South Florida, too.
I was at a Kutless/Newsboys concert last night and it was amazing. I even met and talked to Kutless a bit. They’re ultra cool. You know if you don’t come quick I will make Kutless my new favorite, since they are nice enough to come down to South Florida and I won’t ever comment your blog ever again :[
Phil Wickham. you are just wayyyy too phantasmagorical for your own good. why oh why aren’t you EVER coming back to Virginia Beach land? devastation.

Yay for Michigan! I’m with you there, Elizabeth.

Hi Phil, I was at the Wiltern and was blessed to worship with you. You have an amazing voice. Love your songs.
Soon to be one week. 7 days.Gracious.
Brody … some help?…..
SO….WHEN ARE YOU COMING TO MICHIGAN!!!!??? hmm….^^
(Romans 12) God bless and JESUS LOVES YOU!
Phil,
I purchased your CD only two days ago. I feel as if I have a lot to say about it, but I’ll be as brief as possible.
You have progressed so, SO much since “Give You My World.” It’s not that your voice is “better” or your songs are “better,” but you seem to now create a central message, or focus, and illuminate a unique atmosphere within each song.It gives me hope as a musician as well to keep trying new things while being bold in the songs that Lord has given you–I believe that is what you do!
I have been listening to the song “Beautiful” over and over. It’s pure, it’s simple, I love it. Can I just tell you that I was listening to that song in my car, and the Holy Spirit filled it when I was listening to it. His face is beautiful.
Thank you for pouring life into song and lyrics. God bless you.
Andrea
hurry up
Alright, i am stoked, i AM EXCITED, but I am plain tired. So tired, on such a dreary looking day, that I am not in the concert-sort-of mood. BUT, there is something lingering in the cold air outside of the bookstore I work in. It is whispering my name. Wiltern…..Wiltern….Wiltern. So tonight, I grab my jacket, and journey to the Wiltern to worship my King. Enjoy the beauty of grey clouds that have been hiding from sunny so. cal, and I will see you tonight.
Count ‘em.
ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE.
):
Phil …
It’s been 5 days. 5 days.
Thanks Raquel !!! lol.
Haha good point, Kim.
batman doesnt have an appendix
neither does tofer brown who co-wrote Must I Wait
crazy huh
you got a stasche!
Okay Phil- It’s about time for a new topic. You have them talking (ok-typing) about unnecessary body parts, bacteria & starbucks. Not a good combination! Hope you enjoyed your down time & that you got some well deserved R&R! You’re awesome- See you in 30 days & counting! Looking forward to a sweet high five! lol
Shawn….so, you have an “improper” level of bacteria roaming around in there…it figures,…..lol…..
that is “rich”… I don’t even know what a “rick” person is…
The thing that sticks out most in reading your blogs is that you go to Starbucks. Like, a lot. And the reason that this stands out is simply because Starbucks is my second home, basically.
So I say that when your in the northern New Jersey area and you’re feeling a little parched and your throat is all dry, and you happen to be passing a mall so full of filthy rick people that even the name sounds “snobbish”, if you will (seriously: The Mall at Short Hills… what is that?!) I’d say stop in, and I’ll give you a free Americano. A venti. =)
Tehehe
Happy day!!

Emphasis on BELIEVED.
Weird.
It’s like wisdom teeth. They serve no real purpose, but nevertheless they bother a lot people and then they have to get it [appendix] or them [teeth] removed surgically. Fun.
I have to get my wisdom teeth out next year. Bleh.
Ya know this is a very nice conversation to have on Phil’s blog comments.
