Chris Jim Reed first met his wife, Nancy, on a stage while hundreds of people were watching. Jim used to sing in a rock-and-roll band. Nancy, a local artist, liked Jim and had been going to his shows regularly. Then one night, the drummer didn't show up. After Jim had sung a couple of songs without the drummer, he jokingly asked the audience if anyone wanted to come up and play the drums for the rest of the show. Nancy didn't know how to play the drums, but she wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to meet Jim. So she volunteered to play and took a seat behind the drums. The noise she made wasn't pretty. Fortunately, she had only played for a couple of minutes when the real drummer arrived. It turned out that Jim liked Nancy, even though she was a terrible drummer. After they had dated for a few months, Jim decided to propose the same way they had met—in front of a large audience. Jim had it all planned: He would ask Nancy to come on stage, then he would propose to her. However, Nancy had heard ahead of time what Jim was planning to do, so while Jim was still outside, she told the audience and gave them confetti. When Jim proposed to Nancy, the audience surprised him with the confetti! Jim and Nancy were married later that year.
