He helps direct his church's gospel bad nad recently has been asked to become a deacon. Doug Rott: "Besides writing the songs I had to convey how they should sound to a group of people who know more about music than I will ever. I'D only been singing for a year when I began to record. Time to sink or swim. At least I was treading water like an S.O.B. We had no rehearsals before recording. I sang each lyric to the musicians, they experimented and within an hour the tracks were down. If you asked me a few years ago what the chances were I'd be singing and recording my own songs compared to my becoming an astronaut, I'd have told you to beam me up. Everyone tells you what you can't do".
