The tape ended with Terry explaining Jubals last band's contact information and where to write to the Upper Room. Kenny: "We took it (the demo) to an acquaintance of Terry's at Warner Bros. in Hollywood before we moved to Orange County - but no luck." Spring 1974 Marty: "A friend of mine enrolled in the San Jose Bible College and needed a ride up there from La Puente. So I volunteered, since I was the only one with a truck at the time. I decided to hang out for a about 3 days and that’s when I met Steve Baxter. He told me he was in a Christian band and that the band was going to move to So Cal and ‘join’ Marantha Music and that we should get together once their down there and jam. We didn’t exchange numbers or anything, as a matter of fact that was the extent of our conversation. I drove back to La Puente and started contemplating life after College. I wanted music to be my career, but I didn't know if one could play Rock 'n Roll as a Christian. Even if you could, I didn't know how to pursue it as a Christian. After a long conversation with a friend of mine named Jack Mayfield, he encouraged me to 'walk right into those Maranatha offices and tell them I was available'. We all thought you could just go right in and sign-up, like in the army. I was very intimidated by the whole thing, but Jack told me this was what God wanted me to do (I guess God told him what He wanted for me). So we drove down to the offices and I went in and told the secretary, Sally Withrow, that I could play bass or keyboards and wanted to know if anyone was looking for someone with my qualifications. Well it just so happened that Sally was talking to Don Abshur when I went in. Don was part of Maranatha Music and part of Calvary Chapels approved bible study leaders. She asked me for my phone number and said she’d ask around. Then, when I was starting to walk out the door, Don Abshur said he just formed a new band and they needed a bass player. So I jammed with them and after a couple of days of praying and thinking about it, I joined their band." February 4, 1974 May 1, 1974 May 10, 1974  The concert was performed from a stage in the Gym, Terry played his Telecaster through some amp top through a homemade speaker box with unfinished plywood sides, Steve played his Ovation through Terry's Ovation PA, Kenny played his Fender Precision Bass w/Rotosound strings and a Peavey amp and Chuck was on drums. Chuck: "Before we went on stage, Terry said, 'Well guys -- This might be Jubal's Last Stand!!' " Summer 1974 Mid-Late 1974 Marty: "They (Steve, Terry and Kenny Paxton) were rehearsing with an Electric Guitar player and a drummer, both of whom they had just met at Maranatha Musicians fellowship. He asked me if I wanted to jam with them tomorrow night. Their Bass player played Piano as well as bass and they wanted another person (me) who could play Bass and Piano so Kenny (Paxton) could go back and forth on each instrument as needed." Marty: "I told them I would if they got rid of the drummer and changed the name of the band. The drummer wasn't very good, as a matter of fact he was bad (sorry drummer).... they said ok to both, so I joined... We rehearsed at Steve Baxter's apartment and my garage. We had a hard time coming up with band names so we kept the name Jubal until we could decide on a new name" Marty: "We played about six songs. The whole time none of us looked up or played with our eyes open, we were soooo scared. There were only about nine people there."
