I really want to see Kutless in October. I'd like to see tMac and B429 but Kutless is gonna be a little closer. I'm going to try to convince one of my friends to go with me. I hope I can go.

I wanna see The Becoming so BAD. they are like my 2nd favorite band...I can't wait for the cd to be out. next week big stuff is happening for them.

Yeah, I'm considering going to the Creation Tour. I don't know if I will since the closest date is two hours away in Chattanooga.

I saw The Becoming at the Tooth & Nail showcase during GMA Week. They put on a good show. The lead singer (I think his name is Caleb) broke one of the venue's mic stands, so he got in trouble after their set. It was kind of funny. I'm planning on bringing the friend that went to the Tooth & Nail showcase with me to their Nashville CD release party. Should be sweet!

[ktbug23]

I think the CreationFest Tour is what Kutless is doing in October. I really hope I can go see them. I might try to get one of my friends to go with me *crosses fingers*
I'd like to see KJ-52 too, since he's doing the Tour too.

[Psalms23]

As of last night..I can add C3, Mandisa, Skillet, Another TobyMac, and Another CastingCrowns!!

[fireproof]

iv seen many more bands than i listed, i only listed the headline band of each show, the festivals have hundreds of bands!

oh nice. yeah the creationfest is coming for a festival here that is like 20 minutes away. I really wanna go cause of Capital Lights...I need to see them. (I hope to do merch for one of the artist...hope it can be them).

oh cool. haha...that isn't good that he broke it. that is cool...they haven't really been all that close to where I live, closest would be Cornerstone.

[JC#1Nashvillefan]

that's a lot
the next ones I will be going to

Cindy Morgan for the third time
Music that Builds Tour with Third Day, Jars of Clay, Switchfoot

[Kelly]

You can now add Tom Petty to my list! :D The show was AWESOME!!!!!! I love that man!

[AmandaT]

Well, Deas Vail was great. Jon Foreman was AMAZING! I love that man's solo stuff way more than anything he's ever done with Switchfoot.

Now those Jackson Waters shows just need to hurry up and happen. I wish I could go to more of their shows. They have 2 set for Nashville and 2 set for Franklin. But the Franklin shows are unfortunately 21 and up. So lame... It's not like I want to drink anyway. I think I'll ask JW if I can hide under their merch table when they roll it in. haha Or maybe if I sell their merch again, the venue will make an exception. Doubt it. But I really want to go. :)

[jayhawk4]

Jon Foreman was AMAZING! I love that man's solo stuff way more than anything he's ever done with Switchfoot.

I've never seen him live, but I do agree about his solo stuff! I listened to a song or two and was psyched about the direction. I can't stop listening to "Somebody's Baby."

I haven't seen JW in a while. The last time was before Come Undone came out. Seems like they don't hit my area very often.

It's kind of hard to get a chance to see Jon Foreman outside of when he's with Switchfoot. He's done some touring by himself, but it was only in CA, so it's kind of hard for all of us who don't live there to see him. I was SO excited when I saw that he was coming to Nashville, especially when I was told tickets were only going to be $7. I'm still kind of amazed that a small school like Trevecca Nazarene was able to book him. But the show was crazy good. He had his sister-in-law, who sings on some of the songs on the EPs, come out to sing on "The House of God Forever". And Ethan Luck, who you might know from the OC Supertones, Demon Hunter, or Relient K, came out played on a couple songs too.

I wish I had seen JW back in the day. They played at my school my freshman year and I didn't go. I regret that now. I hadn't seen them until this year's GMA Week. They played twice during the week that I saw them. And then I just saw them again over the summer in Greenville, SC. Now I just wish the two shows they're playing in Nashville in a couple weeks weren't going to be showcases because I want to hear them play more than 3 songs.

They're playing in Manhattan, Kansas, at a festival on the 19th. I don't know how far that is from you.

[JC#1Nashvillefan]

what kind of showcases Amanda

[AmandaT]

what kind of showcases Amanda

Well, the two Nashville shows JW is playing are on the 29th. The first one is going to be at like 7 or 8 at Exit/In. I forget the name of the show, but it's supposed to be multiple artists playing. Then JW is pretty much immediately driving over to Mercy Lounge to play for BMI's 8 off 8th event, which allows each artist to play only 3 songs. Understandable since 8 artists playing full sets would take FOREVER. Especially in Nashville where everyone likes to assume that their music is "totally epic". haha

They are getting full sets later on in Franklin, but I won't be able to go to those since they are at a bar that won't allow anyone under 21 in. Lame... I was thinking about asking David Leonard if I could sneak in under the merch table. haha

he(jon foreman) did a solo show(okay the celloist was with him too) at Lifest this summer...one of the coolest things I have seen...I can post the pics i took(it is only 2) sorry if they are big.

i saw underoath again last night. Tremendous show!

[Lindleigh]

Those are really cool pictures! I love Jon Foreman and Switchfoot. :D Thanks for sharing.

Cinda

[AmandaT]

i saw underoath again last night. Tremendous show!


I am SO jealous. I want to see them so badly. Every single time they come to Nashville I end up being out of town.

Same with The Almost. Maybe Aaron Gillespie is avoiding me...

[ktyme06]

i saw underoath again last night. Tremendous show!
I am jealous too...one of my goals in life is to see them at some point...just every time they come here I am doing something or it is Milwaukee or Madison....

Those are really cool pictures! I love Jon Foreman and Switchfoot. :D Thanks for sharing.

Cinda

your welcome. thanks. yeah...I was so happy that day...got to see 2 of my favorite band people that I thought I would never see again(Aaron Tosti and Jordan Dean....both were w/ Hawk Nelson...only Jordan was like the roadie)...and met SF that day...amazingness even though I got sunburnt and felt yucky half the day cause of that.

[AmandaT]

I'm pretty excited because I just saw that The Becoming and Deas Vail are playing Next Big Nashville on Thursday. Now I just need someone to go with me... And I need to figure out where exactly Deas Vail is playing since the directions just say 12th Ave. Not too helpful. 12th is a pretty long street...

And I saw that the Mean Tambourines are playing at a local indie CD store, so I might go to that. The Mean Tambourines is the band that Ryan (J's guitar player before 2004) is now the lead singer of. I saw them open for Relient K earlier this year, but haven't had a chance to see them again due to either being out of town or their shows being in 21+ venues.

[godslilkitty]

I actually haven't seen Jeremy yet :(.

ok...
Newsboys
David Crowder Band
Kutless
Stellar Kart
Third Day


and some more maybe.

haha...man...why do all The Becoming shows have to be on the west coast, Nashville, Kansas City or some town that I know is like 6 hours from where I live, or Cornerstone(I don't go to that cause we have the festival that is like in my hometown). errr....

I'm sure that once their album drops Tooth & Nail will hook them up with a good tour. T&N is so good about putting its new bands on tours with its more established acts.

Like I just saw that Children 18:3 is going on tour with Norma Jean. Should be a CRAZY show. I don't go to many hardcore shows. Mostly to avoid the bruising, but I will not miss this tour. I'm going to stand up front for Children 18:3 and then retreat to the back of the venue for the rest of the bands because I really don't feel like getting windmill kicked in the face. haha

[AmandaT]

I guess I can add another show under The Becoming now. Though I did only see like 1 and 1/2 songs of their set tonight. It was so not my fault. My friend was supposed to be at my apartment at 9, but she didn't leave Franklin on time and then found out that I-65 was getting repaved, so the freeway was down from 4 lanes to 1 lane. She didn't get to my apartment until after 9:45. The Becoming went on at 9:30. We got to the venue at like 9:50. We got upstairs just in time to see them finish one song and then Caleb Owens announced that they were going to play their last song. LAME...

And then while we were standing around after The Becoming's set this random guy came up to us and was like "HEY! Are you guys ready to rock?" lol I think he'd been drinking a little bit. He introduced himself as Matt and asked if my friend and I were from Nashville. He then revealed that his band was playing next and that they were from Minneapolis. My friend and I decided to stay just because the kid entertained us enough. (I say kid, but he must be like 22 considering he was drinking a beer.) The band actually sounded really good. They had crazy good energy and stage presence. I would give their name, but I don't think I should since they kind of drop the F bomb in a few of their songs and I don't want kids looking them up.

I guess it was overall a good night, though I wish I had actually seen The Becoming's set. I guess there's always the CD release show... I already told my friend that I will have no problem ditching her if she's late for that.

[ktyme06]

haha....wow...i know a few bands from Minneapolis...but the ones that I know more wouldn't have been drinking(one of them one of the guys could get kicked out of the college he goes to...oh wait he might have graduated...for drinking). idk...haha. yeah...they are like one of the only 2 bands that seem to comment me back(Kory does and so does Luke Smallbone of Joel and Luke).

[AmandaT]

Yeah, Kory is pretty great about getting back to people. It kind of weirded me out the first couple times he messaged me because he'd call me "hun". But then I figured out he's just one of those guys that calls every girl that.

They're probably not a band you would've heard. They're all pretty young. 4 of the 5 members are between the ages of 18 and 20. And then Matt, the only one that was drinking, is like 21 or 22. He was rather cute. And I don't mean in the "OMG! He's hot!" way (I don't say that ever), but in that you could tell how much he loved what he was doing because he had the biggest grin on his face the whole time his band was playing. They were really great, especially for how young they are, except for their use of the F bomb.

[ktyme06]

Yeah, Kory is pretty great about getting back to people. It kind of weirded me out the first couple times he messaged me because he'd call me "hun". But then I figured out he's just one of those guys that calls every girl that.

yeah he called me that like the first time he did comment back...I just firgured that too.

oh nice...yeah...i probably wouldn't even like them if they did that, but it is cool how young they are.

[AmandaT]

I would like to feed Caleb a few cheeseburgers. The man looks like he never eats. He's probably like 6'3" and I bet he doesn't even weigh 150 pounds.

This pic was from last night. They were on the SESAC stage.

[ktyme06]

haha...yeah...I know what you are saying. Justin doesn't like Macadamian(can't spell it...or at all today) nut cookies...he is the only one I have actually met...

[AmandaT]

haha...yeah...I know what you are saying. Justin doesn't like Macadamian(can't spell it...or at all today) nut cookies...he is the only one I have actually met...

How did the macadamia nut subject come up? haha

I haven't talked to any of them in person yet. I think Justin graduated from my college. He would've graduated before I even started here though. I read somewhere that he plays for The Becoming, Denver and the Mile High Orchestra, Plumb, and Salvador. He has a pretty impressive career already for being so young...

[ktyme06]

yeah...D&MHO is how I met him. well like I was kinda helping with putting on a show of DMHO and there was treats for the "VIPs" at the show and after I wanted some and he goes "eww i don't like macadamia nut cookies". I laughed at him. it was through him that I heard of the becoming(and they are now my 2nd favorite band after Hawk).

[JC#1Nashvillefan]

They are really good
I saw them about 3 years ago at this church I used to go to

[AmandaT]

So I discovered that the Jackson Waters show I was planning on going to is 21 and up, thus I can't go. So lame. It's not like I'd try to get a drink anyway. I just want to see a band.

And I can't go to see Children 18:3 on Saturday because of how crazy it's going to be around my school Thursday on due to the presidential debate being here. I'm peacing out off Nashville on Friday right after class.

I guess I do still have The Becoming's CD release to look forward to this week...

[ktyme06]

your lucky. YAY...it comes out tomorrow.

[AmandaT]

your lucky. YAY...it comes out tomorrow.

Funny story for you in particular. The Becoming was doing a listening party/signing in Franklin, TN, today at Hot Topic, so I went out to say hi and buy their album so they'd get the Sound Scan credit. As my friend and I were talking to them, we started talking to Justin and I brought up the macadamia nut cookie thing. He thought that was hilarious. He felt bad though because he wondered if you made them. lol

They're super sweet guys! They kept thanking us for coming out because we were apparently the only ones who purposefully came in to buy the album in the 2 hours they'd been there. Kory started talking with some old lady sitting on a bench just to have something to do. It was kind of hilarious. I have a feeling I'm going to end up on YouTube soon because a friend of their's was video taping everything.

haha...wow...that really did make me laugh out loud...haha. that is cool. yeah I wish there was a hot topic closer cause I don't have the album because it wasn't at any of the stores here.

[AmandaT]

You should've seen Justin's face. I laughed pretty hard.

He was like "How do you know that?!! I DO hate macadamia nut cookies!!"

[Wheels4Jesus]

About to add Matthew West and Josh Wilson to my list. I see them Sunday night!

[Kelly]

And I'm adding Third Day to my list on Saturday! Woohoo! And in November I'll be adding a BUNCH more! Kutless, KJ-52, Thousand Foot Krutch, Pillar, Run Kid Run, etc..... (Creation Festival Tour :D)

[ktyme06]

You should've seen Justin's face. I laughed pretty hard.

He was like "How do you know that?!! I DO hate macadamia nut cookies!!"

haha...wow. haha. no I didn't make those. they were just there...haha. that was a good day though. haha.
I really wanna see and meet the rest of them though.

adding the Creationfest Tour artists soon too. (17 days)!

[AmandaT]

I honestly do hope you get to see The Becoming sometime soon. After this week, I'm really loving those guys. They're hilarious and incredibly sweet.

The CD release tonight was sick! They played the entire album, which was pretty crazy considering the album is just short of an hour long. I was surprised Caleb could still talk at the end.

[ktyme06]

^yeah. holy crud...the whole album(i still have to get it...they didn't have it at any stores here). I listen to it on the Purevolume site...haha. Favorite song?

[AmandaT]

I have three favorites right now. "Your Love", "We Close Our Eyes", and "Somebody Didn't Come Home Last Night". That last track was amazing live. I tried to record it with my camera, but for some reason my camera has been having weird memory issues that it never had before. At the Tooth & Nail showcase during GMA Week, I took at least 300 pictures and got about 4 full song videos, but last night I didn't even take 130 pictures and it wouldn't let me take a video over 1:30 without filling up the memory. I don't know what the deal is.

[ktyme06]

Your Love and Somebody Didn't Come Home Last Night are also my favorites...along w/ I Cry. that is annoying that your camera did that. I don't really like mine cause it has NO SOUND. and only does like 230 something pics...but that is cause of the card i have.

[Kelly]

You can now add Third Day, Switchfoot, Jars of Clay, and Robert Randolph and the Family Band to my list! :) The Music Builds Tour is AWESOME! Would say everyone should catch it, but it's almost over. If you live in Minnesota, Missouri, or Colorado you still have a chance :)

[fireproof]

aaah jeremy camp is finally coming to scotland woohoo, hes playing next years frenzy, prob only get half an hour but at least hes coming!

yeah...that show that is monday of The Becoming has Seabird too. And my favorite drummer is drumming for those guys a little...I wouldn't even be allowed in too...even if I did live closer.

Yeah, I'm bummed about missing Seabird too. I actually first heard about the show because of Seabird, but then discovered all of the 8 off 8th showcases at Mercy Lounge were 21+. So when I saw that was what Seabird was playing I knew I couldn't go. And then The Becoming just got added. Oh well... So goes my luck. At least it's only 8 off 8th. The bands only get 3 song sets since there are 8 bands playing.

And is the drummer you're talking about the dude from The Myriad?

[ktyme06]

adding like more concerts for some and new bands after this weekend(Creationfest/Power Of One) seeing Run Kid Run twice that day. ....and what is so bad about Hawk Nelson?

[AmandaT]

^ I think Todd finds Hawk Nelson to be too boy band-ish.

So I tried to get into that show The Becoming and Seabird did. It didn't happen. I'm not sneaky. I did get to hang out with The Becoming for 30 minutes, I guess. I really wanted to Seabird though.

I've got another Jackson Waters show coming up on the 2nd. Just two weeks away... Too bad it's at a venue I don't like. The venue tends to charge double from anyone under 21. I assume it's because they know you won't buy a drink. I find it stupid since most of the people over 21 wouldn't buy drinks either. It doesn't really create a balance. And then the Copeland show is just over two weeks after that. I'm hoping some other Nashville shows will get added soon. It seems like bands I like either all play within days of each other or there's some month long gap between shows.

[ktyme06]

oh...nice...haha.

you can add another shows for:
TFK, Pillar, Kutless, Cycledown
2 shows(they played twice yesterday):
Run Kid Run
and NEW:
Fireflight, Esterlyn, and CAPITAL LIGHTS.

[Toddrick33]

^ I think Todd finds Hawk Nelson to be too boy band-ish.


I love having a spokesperson! It makes my absences from the boards that much more palatable! ;)

OK. I'm one of those people who liked Relient K before they were big. Then pop punk got old... really, really quickly... It seemed like every other band was pop punk.

As for Hawk Nelson specifically... The first time I saw J over 4 years ago, they were at the show, as were a couple local people. I was in a room that was supposed to have I think 450 people? Anyway, they crammed about 650 people in there, and Fire Marshall Bill said never again. I had a sinus infection or something in my ear, and it was super hot. So I did not particularly care to listen to Hawk Nelson (I was already over pop punk by this time).

And then to be honest, it became a joke after that. It seemed that every time I went to a J show, or even a "non tour" show with some bands, Hawk Nelson was there. It's been a running joke to see if I can "avoid" Hawk Nelson at the festivals and shows. :) They're honestly great guys, I just don't dig the music.

I did see Jason sing a duet with Amy Grant at Creation, though. That was pretty weird/cool.

[AmandaT]

I think Hawk is okay, but I also think they're too boy band-ish. I feel like their music is intended for kids younger than me. If I was 13, I'd probably think they were the greatest thing ever.

[Toddrick33]

That's how I feel about pop punk in general!

[ktyme06]

I did see Jason sing a duet with Amy Grant at Creation, though. That was pretty weird/cool.

haha...actually it was probably One Little Miracle, which is a Hawk Nelson song.

Like yes...they do have girls screaming for them at every show(okay...mainly for Jason)....but like I just ignore them or just join them for the heck of it.

[AmandaT]

The screaming fan-girl part is probably what kills Hawk's cred in my book. I just don't want to be around that many screaming girls. It's ridiculous. If they were screaming between songs to show appreciation for the song, that's one thing, but the majority of them are screaming "I LOVE YOU!" or "YOU'RE HOT!" Those girls don't even care that some of those guys are twice their age or in relationships.

I must say that's why I like Nashville shows. They're usually 18+, so it cuts out the teen crowd. Though sometimes it is INCREDIBLY amusing to watch teens hit on guys in bands. Like I got to watch a bunch of 14 year olds hit on Ben Olin from This Beautiful Republic. The dude is turning 29 in December, but that didn't stop any of these girls from hitting on him. They were trying so hard, it was just hilarious. I did feel a little bad when Ben looked over and saw me laughing at him, but he got over it. Usually our conversations consist of making fun of each other. hah

Oh, and Todd, I forgot to tell you this earlier, but I'm taking a speech class right now and we had to do a meaningful item speech. The girl that went right before me pulled out a shoe and said that Jason from Hawk Nelson signed it. That was her most meaningful possession. I honestly struggled to keep from laughing a little. I totally thought of you as soon as I saw the signature.

[drake71449]

amanda i agree with the hawk nelson thing with all girls...i like their music and i'm a guy but ....i've hosted some christian bands in my town and one was a guy band and the other was a co ed band...and it seemed like the lil girls all went goo goo eyed at the guy band...but they did totally rock... they were called Time of Favor and they were awesome

:p

Yes....I hate that too. that is really funny about the Ben thing...like YUCK. I just ignore those girls...or make fun of them. Or tell them that the guy is married(if he truly is)...it makes the stop screaming. Like the reason I like them is for their music and the way they treat everyone. Not cause they are "hot" or stuff like that.

Ben Olin has a pretty stalker-ish fan club of girls. They're crazy. If I ever leave him a comment on MySpace, my profile views jump up a TON. It's like they want to check out the competition as if I'm in love him. haha Don't get me wrong. Love the dude as a brother in Christ. He's awesome. I respect him for the music he makes. But "in love with him"? haha NO.

[Labby]

I've seen Hawk Nelson a couple times. Can't stand 'em, for multiple reasons (most of which are the music -- just not my style).

You know, at the last J gig I went to, I heard a girl scream, "I LOVE YOU!" And, J being J, he turned it around:

"But how much do you love Jesus?"

He got a lot of applause for that.

Anyway, on to concerts: I saw Jeff Deyo recently. He was the worship leader for our Youth Convention, and I loved it. It was the first time in a long time that I could just throw myself into community worship without having to worry about the little things. You know, "How are the monitors? Am I playing too loud? Oops, wrong chord. I need to turn Singer A up juuust a tad..."

Nope; just standing back, arms raised, eyes closed, singing to God. Good times.

I'm also getting the concert itch; I just don't know who's going to be in the area soon. I've been insanely busy all summer long, and it hasn't slown down yet.

I don't care for Hawk Nelson's music very much either

[Kelly]

I just saw MercyMe's entire show live online...does that count? :p

[JC#1Nashvillefan]

I guess
I saw Meredith Andrews, Fee and Phil Wickham well not entirely true. I worked Merch for Fee because it was at my church-last thursday
the next day saw Steven Curtis Chapman and MWS in Atlanta, GA last friday

[AmandaT]

One more Jackson Waters show to add to my list! They were amazing last night. I love those guys.
They're really sounding solid as a 4 man group now.

I took 7 videos during the show. Basically that was their entire set except for 2 songs. If you want to see the videos, let me know and I'll send you some links.

My favorite pic of the night:

Psh... I can study earlier in the day. The show isn't until 8, which means I don't need to leave school until like 7 (to get a good spot).

Though I do have my toughest final (business finance) the day after...

What I'd do is take my books with and study in line and during all of the boring radio station advertising/announcements, and study in the autograph line... It'd work! :cool:

I have a pretty huge pile of finance notes and the book isn't too compact either. There wouldn't really be a place to put them and I'd be afraid to accidentally leave them behind somewhere. That finance book was not cheap...

Oooooh do online concerts count? Then put me down for another J show :) And does it count if you get a concert call that lasts for the entire hour & a half concert? If so, that puts my J total up to four! Wow! :) Also got a full show concert call for Third Day so add that :)

And in that case, put me down also for 11 MercyMe/Bebo Norman shows! :)

Everlife... I don't hear about them too often. Last time I heard their name mentioned was when I found out that Nathan Hussard, who plays bass for Jackson Waters, used to play drums for Everlife.

I heard about him yesterday. Was excited to see Tosti. haha. It was a good show.

[ktyme06]

everlife ...dont they sing "save me"

:p

yes...they have a song named that. I really like them(even though they are like the same age as me...Julia is a year younger and the other 2 are like 2 and 4 years older). yeah...I need their cd and I want their new one that I think might be coming out next year.

[drake71449]

:P

[AmandaT]

I'm seeing Josh Wilson and Brandon Heath tomorrow afternoon and then The Classic Crime tomorrow night. :) Somewhere in there I might study for my finance final...

[ktyme06]

^^yeah only reason I really saw them this time was cause I wanted to see their band dudes. haha

^haha Amanda.

[AmandaT]

^haha Amanda.

And that's without me mentioning that some friends from when I lived in AL are driving up to see The Classic Crime, so they're going to be at my apartment all day too. I'm just glad my finance final isn't until 2PM on Thursday because then I might be able to study on Thursday at least.

Well, the Josh Wilson/Brandon Heath thing didn't end up happening because I drove out to Franklin to pick a friend up from her house.

The Classic Crime was amazing though! Their set was a little short, but I think it was because Matt hurt his voice. Now if only they'd start getting booked in TN, so I could see them more than once every blue moon. One of the opening acts I caught was really good too. They were called Tyler Read.

Whoaaaaa that's a lot of concerts.. And to think I haven't been to one yet.

[AmandaT]

Whoaaaaa that's a lot of concerts.. And to think I haven't been to one yet.

I pretty much live for the live show. It's one of the big reasons why I want to tour manage. I think I've been to 15 or so concerts this year. I'm hoping for even more in 2009. Most of the bands I like don't get booked to play in or around Nashville often or at all, so I take any opportunity to catch a good show.

[Convicted]

Ah, I just realized you were from Nashville. Music city USA!!! I've heard Atlanta is becoming a pretty big place in the music industry as well. Tour managing sounds fun, you get to be on the road a lot with the bands. I'd love to go to lots of concerts every year.

[Kelly]

I heard that about ATL too! Third Day is based there, Aaron Shust as well, and Chris Tomlin just moved there....must be something we don't know about :p

[AmandaT]

Pretty much the main music centers are Los Angeles, New York City, Nashville, and Atlanta.

LA and NYC are focused on most of the mainstream stuff like secular rock and rap. Nashville has always been a country and Christian center. It's developing an underground rock scene. Atlanta is big for rap right now.

[Convicted]

Atlanta is big for rap right now, interesting. I still think the westcoast dominates the rap scene as a whole though; but it's interesting how it's spreading throughout the country more. A lot of people do freestyle battles all the time here in the westcoast; I even have :D.

Oh, I definitely agree about the west coast dominating the scene.

And I'm not meaning to stereotype, but a lot of African Americans live in Atlanta now. It's becoming a trendy place for wealthy African Americans to live. I constantly hear about rappers and athletes that live in or are moving to Atlanta. And as those rappers move into Atlanta, they build studios and companies, so the rap scene will continue to grow there.

[Kelly]

Gettin' ready to add another Third Day show to my list! :) They're playing @ Sea World in March! :) I've been trying to get to Sea World all year....now I REALLY have a reason to go! And my friends just bought season tickets! Bring on Shamu and Third Day! :)

[ktyme06]

I know of a few bands i will see next summer(july 8-12)...so excited for Lifest.

[ktyme06]

give me jesus did you catch the concert tues nite??? then you can count it

:p

if you count concerts I have seen online...well that could up the Hawk Nelson count by like 20 cause I have watched their performance on the Stickam tooth and nail tour(07) thing like more than that...haha. or just maybe only make it 8...haha.

[drake71449]

lol what is stickam???

[ktyme06]

stickam is like a live webcasting site that you can just have the same things over and over.

[drake71449]

oh okay cool i will check it out one day!!!

:p

[AmandaT]

Found out today that The Becoming got added to the Anberlin show I was planning on going to in January! This show just got a lot better! I love those Becoming boys.

I really don't think I will ever be able to see them..like a lot of others have...cause I just don't want to go to Cornerstone when there is a festival down the street from me(literally) that costs a lot less.

Are you in Wisconsin? How far are you from Milwaukee? They're playing there on January 16th.

[ktyme06]

Are you in Wisconsin? How far are you from Milwaukee? They're playing there on January 16th.

yeah I saw that...yes...I am in Wisconsin. like 2 hours from the place they are going to play.

[drake71449]

WI rocks go packers...

:p

[Kelly]

You mean GRRRRR Packers! :( What in the world happened tonight????

[ktyme06]

i figure...hey there is always next year...true packer fans stay with them through thick and thin and don't leave them for a "better" team.

[drake71449]

me either i root for the saints even if they never make the playoffs again...but hopefully they get better runners...anyways back to concerts...does...shoutfest count??if so my count goes up by 4

[Kelly]

Well said! I stuck by them after they went 4-12....and even the next year when they only went 8-8....they're my boys, what can I say? :)

And I gotta say this too....Driver has GOT to be made of steel! For one thing, he NEVER limps off the field like he did last night....and then to get right back in the game on the NEXT PLAY! Wow!!!! I love that guy!

But yeah they're an awesome team to watch...win or lose. They've sold out every game since 1960 & have a 74,000 member waiting list for season tickets!

Win or lose.....they're the team to watch! :):D:)

Wait...isn't this a concerts thread? Hehehe.....now back to our regularly scheduled programming!

yes it would...cause them my actual concert count would only be like 30 total...haha.

[giveyouglory]

Wow, my lists look pretty lame compared to some of the others:

Casting Crowns--1
Switchfoot--1
Jeremy Camp--10 minutes of it.:(

[drake71449]

you'll get there gyg takes time and money and blessing....biggest of all blessings!!

:p

[Kelly]

Don't feel bad. I was a fan of Jeremy's for 5 years before making it to my first show, and was a fan of Third Day's for TEN years before making it to my first show of theirs. But both shows were such a blessing, definitely worth the wait because it all happened in God's timing :)

Yeah, it'll be totally worth the wait... and your day will come!

[Kelly]

I also got to see several artists this past year that I NEVER thought I'd have the chance to see! The coolest definitely being Tom Petty! I watched the Superbowl pretty much just for his halftime show & that's when I found out he was going on tour. Then they said they were selling tickets in February for the entire tour & that they would sell out like that. The show in my area wasn't till August & was on a Tuesday night, so I was hesitant, but I didn't want to miss out, so I bought the tickets & it ended up all working out! :)

Also bought tickets for a friend's graduation gift to take her to see Journey. She bailed on me at the last minute & I was so upset, not only that she bailed, but that I wasn't gonna get to see Journey. But it turns out, my bro had a trip planned that weekend but it got cancelled the day before the show sp he went with me :)

i have liked him for like 6 years and still have yet to see him...I can't help I had to do my "job" at lifest during him.
