With the second album, Jilted, things got harder and the stage show became a lot more full-on. Each one of us had developed into identifiable personality on stage, and with that cam the theatrics, Keith in a strait-jacket, in the glass box, or the ball.

He heals by working through doctors, nurses, and others whom He has gifted, equipped, and called to the medical professions.
