Said Avalon's Greg
Long about the 'Stand' album, "Overall, the theme of this record is
that pure and simple joy. Over the past three years we've all been
through a lot, but now the transition is done. We're all here now.
There's a history here. And we're all encouraged and excited about
finding our way together. We've experienced one of the most joyful
things you can experience in this life - two babies being born. And so
it's like Melissa Greene says, 'Joy has come in the morning.' It's
morning. It's spring. The songs are a definite testament to where
we're standing now."
