I was on my way to the restaurant when I passed by this Bar called The Star Lounge on Mainstreet in my small town of Agbor Delta state.
I Never really noticed this place before but there were about a hundred cars parked all over the place some almost out on the road. Our population here is only a few thousand and most are Farmers and Ranchers.
I slowed my car down and decided to find out what was going on.
I had to park about fifty yards down the road but my curiosity was getting the best of me. I hadn't seen that many cars parked in one place in this town since the Okeke Jones Died a few years back.
When I walked over to the Bar I noticed that on this small sign in front it said Here for only one night is Singer Songwriter JC....That's it....I never heard of A JC before and had no idea who or where he was from and I had no idea how all these people new he was there.
I recognized many of the cars of people that I knew and figured that this guy must be Great so I went in to see what was going on.
I pushed on the door to open it and could barely move it as there was so many people there.
I made my way through to the bar and asked Jenny what was going on. She said that Some Guy named JC showed up the night before and said He was sent here to Play One Show tonight and that He would play for free. Well I told Stan the owner about him and he said he liked free and said let him come in a do a few songs.
Tonight was a Monday night and usually only a few people would be in there having a few beers but tonight there were at least 100 people crammed in to see and hear this guy.
I asked a few of the people I knew about how they happened to be there and they all said that they found a Flyer in their mail box urging them to go see this guy JC.
He said there was a special one night gig by this guy JC and that the whole town would be there. I could see the small stage in the corner of the bar where there was a Mic and a few amps and a Stool and that was it.
All of a sudden the lights went down and a small blue light above the stool came on and this guy about 25 came out with a guitar slung over his shoulder and sat down on the stool.
The Crowed became very quiet and then HE started to talk. He said HE was sent here to sing this song and then started to sing.
After the one song he got up from the stool with his guitar and slowly walked out the back door of the Bar and just disappeared into the night.
The crowd was stunned and a few went out that back door looking for him but apparently he disappeared into the night without a trace. Nobody saw him drive up and come in and nobody saw him drive away. Actually nobody knew how he got there or where he went.
