It's trivia time again! Hip hip hooray!
This one is going to be a little bit different. We need your creativity here.
Imagine that the Fields of Love was being made into a movie. You are the casting agent. Who would you hire to play the roles of these characters?
Make it your dream cast... your ultimate picks, living or dead. Maybe you'd like to have seen Jimmy Stewart as the farmer... or maybe you think The Oak Ridge Boys should play the Shooting Star Quartet! Be creative and have some fun with it!
Of course, deciding the winner will be up to the panel of judges and completely subjective. The judges will be Brandon, Steve and myself.
The cut-off date for your submission will be next Monday night at midnight, August 4th. That gives you a little while to mull over your picks and then to convince us that your picks are inspired. Post your message here, so everyone else can enjoy it too. Leave an email address or you can email it to us separately at trivia@markbishopmusic.com if you don't want to post it.
The winner will win a prize package that includes a Mark Bishop Cafe T-shirt, in your size, a souvenir program book from the last Bishops Homecoming and a Pilgrimage Tour cd featuring music from the Bishops and more.
Get your thinking caps on and join the fun!

The Fields of Love is here!
Hey everybody. I am really excited to be able to present to you a new album unlike any you've ever heard.
As many of you already know, I have been writing songs about faith for many years now. Many of those compositions were songs that told stories.
Well, I have always wanted to write an album of songs that took the listener on a grand adventure through the life of an ordinary person. A person who struggles to find life's meaning and to make sense of the bad things that happen in our lives. What if that story was told with music and lyric? What if the characters could come to life and feel real to the listener, all while enjoying the musical and vocal talents of the leading professionals in our field? Well... after many, many months of creative work and sweat, we have accomplished just that. And now we are ready to present our work to you.
We hope that you will look around the website to discover more about this unique recording. We hope that you will listen to it and enjoy it. And then we hope that you will come back here and let us know what you think about it.
If you are blessed by it's message... if the story touches your heart... if it speaks to you... then this is the place to share your feelings with all of us who had a hand in creating it, and with the new folks who are just discovering The Fields of Love.
I will be dropping back in from time to time to add my own comments. So will some of the other creative folks involved.
Enjoy!
