Concert news.

For the most part, I tend to not be a huge christian concert guy. Actually, not just Christian concerts, any concerts. Up until about 5 minutes ago, I wasn't quite sure why. But after thinking about it for a bit, I realize there are 3 distinct reason why I've been less than motivated to go concerts in the past.

1. Money. $50 for a ticket.... no thanks.
2. Hype. I don't want to be one of those raving fans who clammers to get an autograph from a normal guy who happens to play the guitar pretty good, and also happens to pick his nose just like I do. No thanks.
3. Comfort. I happen to be 6'3" tall and way a 2 bucks plus some change, and so my thought is this. If I am going sit in an itty bitty seat for 3 hours, or stand amongst a group of sweaty people who feel the need to jump up and down allot, I had better be at the NBA Finals watching the Blazers or something of that nature. Not listening to a song that is also available on my Ipod at home.



Now after writing this article, I must say that I am turning over a new leaf. My days of concert hating are over, for a concert tailered just for me has been brought to Portland. The Rock and Worship Roadshow. For only $10, I can go to a concert that also features worship and speakers. Bands such as Hawk Nelson, Jeremy Camp, Mercy Me, and Tenth Avenue North will be there. Although I may be uncomrfortable in my itty bitty seat, I know that I didn't break my pocketbook going to this great event.

If you are in Middle School or High School and are interested in going to THE ROCK AND WORSHIP CONCERT, go to the churches website to get more details.
