Hunter and I are heading home for a few days to be with our wives!! The past three days have been great. We finished up tonight in Birmingham, Alabama. We had a sold out show with almost 16,000 people in attendance and it was so great to meet everyone. The WinterJam tour decided not to try and compete with the SuperBowl since apparently several people watch this game. My wife and I will most likely go to a friends house and enjoy the commercials and rock out with Tom Petty at half-time. I hope everyone has a great Sunday with family and friends. Thanks so much for all your support.

Hey you crazy bloggers!

This is about to be a boring entry so get out now why you can. Its late and I think its Friday. I am lying in my bunk typing on my phone so show me some grace here. We just played in Little Rock, Arkansas this evening. There was a great turnout tonight. Hunter was sick so I am avoiding him like the plague. I am what some call a “germ-a-phobe”. I just think that people who are sick should be seperated from civilization and I don’t think this is asking too much.

Tomorrow night we will be in Alabama and I don’t really know any clever anticdotes about this state I just hope its warm. I told you this would be boring so don’t say I didn’t warn you. Well thanks for still reading and I will try harder tomorrow to be more interesting and I will use spell-check. oh yeah!…our bus caught on fire this week. That was kind of interesting. No one was hurt and nothing was damaged too badly.

Goodnight!

Hello Blog-people, here is a clip from our performance in Columbus Ohio acouple weeks ago. If you haven’t had a chance to see us live, Yes… we always glow like that. Enjoy!

Also, be checking back later this week, Hunter and I are going to start posting some exclusive acoustic songs just for our highly devoted blogreaders!

I know, I know…this may be too much for you to handle.

Chris

We are what some call a “Christian” band. God has given us the opportunity to share what He is doing in us through the songs that He has given us. With this said…I don’t find it very Christ-like for Hunter to lie to our faithful readers.

I do currently and occasionally eat meat HOWEVER, I do not and did not go out and get Quarter Pounder after watching Fast Food Nation on the bus. As a matter of fact I haven’t eaten at McDonald’s in over 2 years since I watched Super Size Me. Now, if Hunter wants to use the World Wide Web as one more way to try and make me look bad that’s fine. I however, will be the bigger person and will not stoop to his level.

P.S. The picture up above is of a young Hunter Smith (he’s on the left). I just don’t understand why all the other kids are smiling and he is striking a pose.

Hello, I hope everyone is doing alright. Just want to say thanks to everyone who has found our little blog and shared it with friends.
As, some of you know Hunter and I are out on the WinterJam tour until Mid-March and we have had a great time meeting people from all the cities we have traveled to so far. Being on such a large scale tour has been both humbling as well as eye opening. Even though Hunter does have another high-profile job really we are just two worship leaders who love to share the songs God has given us with anyone who wants to hear them. Since Hunter and I met we both agreed that neither of us felt called to “entertain” people. I believe God uses platforms like music or football to get His message out. However, we both know that throughout scripture God used the lowliest of people to accomplish His purposes. We believe our responsibility in this is to minister and not to just entertain people. Because He has allowed us to be on a stage like this it is our prayer to stay low. My desire for this blog is not for people to just read more about what we are doing but join in on what God is doing through us. I believe that everyone is called to be a minister. This doesn’t mean that everyone is called to work at their church but we are called to reach out and use the gifts that God has given us to love people. We ask for your prayers that we may stay low and always keep His agenda our first priority. Thank you all.

OK, I just want to clarify a few things for the record here…

Hunter just started this whole blogging thing and he is already trying to start a fight. I went fishing last week because I wanted to be socialable and be “one of the guys”. I generally don’t take part in these kind of activities because quite frankly, I am an animal lover! Yes its true. Call me a sissy, call me what you may but hunting, fishing, trying to masculate myself by killing something is not my idea of fun.

Hunter wrote in a recent blog that I caught and harmed a fish while out with the boys. This is simply a bold faced lie and a sad attempt to get me kicked out of PETA. I don’t take it personally, it probably has more to do with our names. See, my name “Christopher” means “Christ’s Light”, Hunter’s name…well I guess speaks for itself. I just love all of God’s creatures and will never find killing a sport but hey, I never really was any good at sports.

Hello, we are getting ready for our next run on the Winter Jam tour. We will be in Illinois, Ohio, and Missouri over the next four days. Being off the last couple days has been nice. The MercyMe crew guys and I spent the day Tuesday going fishing in Florida. Even though the guys caught nothing we had a great time on the boat all day and it was much warmer than Indy. We spent Wednesday in Nashville hanging out and catching up with friends and on sleep.

I am looking forward to this weekend as my wife and family will be coming out to Cincinnati and Columbus to check out the tour. Our blog family has been quickly growing and we greatly appreciate your support and commitment to check up on what’s going on with us. If you get to come check out a show please stop by our table and let us know you have been reading our blog. Also, pass the link along to your friends! Look forward to hearing and seeing you all soon.

Its Thursday already so that means I head out EARLY tomorrow morning to head to Tampa Florida. It has been a great few days home with my wife and my dog Mordecai

(don’t ask about the name). It is freezing and snowing up here in Indy and as much as I love my hometown I am excited to venture south where it is warm.

I am eager to get back on the tour and get some pictures up so you all can see what we are up to. So, since I do not have any tour pics yet, I will include one of my ferocious six pound dog (do not get intimidated he mostly just sleeps).

Hey Everyone! Well this is our first blog and we hope you keep coming back to check out what’s going on with Connersvine.

We just completed our first leg of the tour and it has been going well. We visited Johnson City, Chattanooga, Roanoke, and Charlotte. I have had the opportunity to meet so many amazing people on the road. Hunter had his last game of the season on Sunday against San Diego so its been just me out on tour. However, Sundays loss was kind of bittersweet. As much as I wanted to the Colts to go all the way again this year it has been strange being out on the road without him. So, starting Friday night in Tampa, FL Hunter will be joining me as we travel through, Tampa, Orlando, and Coral Gables Florida. We would love to see you guys come out and hear your support as we are a pretty new band and no one really knows who we are!

Sorry if this blog is a little boring, I will try and spice it us as we continue with clever antidotes and witty remarks. Also, maybe I will throw in a few incriminating photos of Hunter.
