Gary LeVox lead singer of Rascal Flatts is from Ohio and is a few years younger than I.
One of my Best Friends Bill Price is now a pastor in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Where his Dad Eugene Price Pastored for serveral years in the 1970, 1980 up until his passing.
When Bill Price was traveling around Ohio with his Christian Music group.
A younger guy kept showing up at show after show just wanted to learn how to play keyboards and sing.
He did sing a few times with Bill and his band back in those days.
He told Bill Price all I want to do is sing.
Years later he found himself having that chance and now he is in one of the most popular bands.
His roots are in the UPCI, has spoke in tounges and is Baptized in JN.

Here's an excerpt:
Carey: Um, I was raised in a Pentecostal church.
Tavis: So was I.
Carey: Yeah. Actually, I wasn't. I was raised Protestant, and I went to Pentecostal church when I was 13. I got saved when I was 13, and you know the feeling when you're at the altar call, and you're filled with the Holy Spirit and you feel like you're floating?
Tavis: I've been there.
Carey: That's what it felt like.
Tavis: Right.
Carey: That's exactly what it felt like. And it's hard to explain to people who haven't had that kind of experience, but it's all pure emotion. Like if you've ever seen or been with somebody at a Pentecostal church when they have the altar call. And it's just a church, not a TV show. I'm talking about just the church where it's just you and the believers in the church, and you can really let go and give it all up, and you just get filled with this energy. There is like a spirit and an energy floating around, and, uh, you know, the Pentecostals call it the Holy Spirit. You can call it whatever you want, but there's something there, and you do go through like a psychological joy that just overflows you and kind of takes you over, and that's what I felt like when I was on “The Tonight Show.” When I walked out and I did my set, and I was very aware that I've never been more in a moment or alive or present and all those things that people look for than I was right then. |
So, TS was too...hmmm...interesting...

He actually influenced parts of the movie it the church scenes...

I didn't know about his family members...my understanding is that when researching for the movie, he visited a lot of Pentecostal churches, in particular, UPCI.
One hears a lot of stories...

I am personal friends with their mother! Their dad was a UPC evangelist at one time! They grew up playing and singing in a UPC church.
Their mom is proud of their success, but it's sad really!
