Nice speech.Cant help but notice he didnt mention Beckie Simmons, who busted her butt keeping him booked 20-23 times a month at $5,000 a night.I know,I worked there.Of course,he didnt have alot of time,so I suppose it would be easy to forget who keeps you on the road,when youre on the road for a living
Complaints..Complaints..I guess it's a cheap way to get your 15 minutes of fame by tying your name to Jason Crabb's. I think booking agents get paid for what they do don't they?
Well for one,everyone that Jason named gets paid dont they?? Try harder.......Also,im not tying my name to FAME,considering that Jason Crabb is completely and totally unknown to 99.9% of the public.Im not tying myself to the business other than to give credibility to what I said.I left the business after 92 days of the most unethical garbage ive ever seen.Altho working in the "Gospel" field made me look like i was in good company when it came to pressing toward the mark as the Bible says,the industry I was TIED to, was making me a walking contradiction whether I lined up with their practices or not.Guilty by association.I cared enough about myself as a man and a christian to not associate myself with it any longer than the conviction in my heart would allow.All Im tying myself too is the fact that I, am not just talking out of ignorance but experience.It has nothing to do with fame,patting myself on the back,etc....I MYSELF didnt book Jason,other than a few dates here and there.Beckie did....and she did a fantastic job.Enough so,that without ANY remaining loyalty to Beckie or anybody else in the business,I was genuinely shocked when Jason didnt mention her in his acceptance speech,and decided to convey that thought here.Sorry it hurt your feelings.The booking agent obviously does more leg work to keep food on the table and the message being spread than any other outlet in the business.
