A concert a day keeps the boredom away...

Friday night Isaac and I both left work a few hours early because we had to get downtown to be trained for working the Holt International Child Sponsorship table during Winter Jam. It was fun to cut the line (we had to be there an hour before the doors opened) and get right in for free. We went up to a Holt table near the Newsboys merchandise table ( Read more... )

Robert Pierre had more than a metrosexual vibe to me...but it was his first night so maybe his nervousness translated as more of a homosexual vibe than a straight one??

Firelight chick has an awesome voice but the first night she did something to it in the first song so her voice started to go after it...it was rather sad. I loved her hair but I wish she had a bit of pink in it LOL. I loved the bassist chick's look...If I had long hair I would want it to look like that!!

I was pleasantly surprised with Tenth Ave. North...not being a fan it was nice to listen to LOL.

I really liked Sidewalk Prophets and boy can their front man SING!!! I think they were one of my favorites of the evening!

Newsong's "Arise My Love" always manages to make me cry and rejoice. Their guitarist reminded me of John Druitt from Sanctuary A LOT but he had an excellent guitar solo which I screamed my head off during...I think I was the only one in the crowd who loved guitar solos BTW ( ... )

I've known a lot of straight guys who look/move like Robert did, so I guess I'm used to it. I even have one guy friend who not only has metro style but also talks with a lisp, and he's straight (and in fact has been married to a girl for over a year now). Poor guy. Hehe ( ... )

It wasn't as much as Robert's look because I enjoy guys who dress like he does (My night he wore a button down shirt with a vest and jeans.) but just everything because I heard a lisp and saw a wrist flick. ...but I think he was trying too hard and it came out homo LOL. He's only 17 so it was probably just nerves.

I agree about liking Tait and Toby more than Kevin but you are right that it's not the "same" but it's close as possible that we can get to a reunion at this moment. It makes me sad everyone is getting so old...it is reminding me that I am growing up! :(

Me too! Ike Hanson wears vests a lot (but with t-shirts) and I love it. Isaac has talked about trying vests one of these days. I said GO FOR IT because I love that look with nice-fitting jeans. But we both agreed that it would probably look better once he gets back in shape, so I think when he is he's going to try them. I'm excited. =o)

I know! Well, MWS is 52 years old and Toby is 45! So I guess it makes sense that they look old. It's just weird since they used to be so cool. OK, they are still cool, just with wrinkles and bags. Hehe.

The thought that your kid could be on the tables made me tear up too! Can you sign up with them on their website? I've been wanting to sponsor a child in some capacity for a long time - once we know what Evan's new salary will be and can actually make a budget, I might do that.

I love Third Day and I probably need to check out Fireflight. :)

The symphony performance sounds really cool!

Jon would have loved the organ concert! While we lived in P'cola (after we got married), we were able to go to a couple organ concerts and he loved them. Then again, he did major in organ. He even has a CD by Hell. :)

Oh, and we both really enjoy Saint-Saens.
