Mel and I went to the Bebo Norman , Natalie Grant and Jeremy Camp concert last night at the Scottish Rite Cathedral in New Castle. It was great fun however; we are now the moldie oldies. Upon reaching our seats in the first balcony we were comfortable on the end of the row, at the aisle could see the stage quite well. Bebo came out with 1 other man, played acoustic guitar and keyboard and it was just lovely . I enjoy his music so much. Then Natalie- she was great a well - pretty loud and pretty bright. I was pleased at her testimony and the way she really spoke the gospel to the young people ( and old people ) in the audience. By this part of the concert the fog machines had been blowing the fog for now almost an hour or more. the light show was quite amazing however we were both feeling quite parched- pretty much deaf and glad it was just the 2 of us instead of our "guys" as they would have maybe not been so patient. hahaha
Intermission- 20 minutes to prepare for the big show~ I stayed to save our seats while Mel went on a quest for a bottle of water for the two of us. She came back after finding the one and only water fountain in the entire place bubbling over and overflowing to the floor and down the steps... She tried to lap at the water like a dog - but unable to share any with her best friend. She returned empty handed so sorry I could not have had a drink... hahahha Im still laughing so hard.. as I type this. We are old women I tell you.
So the show is about to begin again.... the fog is blowing filling the auditorium with this thick cloud- our tongs were thsucht tho the ruuuufff of our mouthhhs cauthe we neededth a drink tho bad, causing us to laugh hysterically to the point i started to cry ~ begged her to catch my tears so they wouldn't be waisted ... it was moisture..... haha . . . .
The show began. OH MY GOSH IT WAS SO LOUD IT WAS AS IF I WERE IN FRONT OF THE SPEAKERS IT WAS SO BRIGHT I WAS AFRAID I WAS GOING TO HAVE A SEIZURE RIGHT THEN AND THERE!
Don't' get me wrong we loved it , but we are so old. I couldn't understand what he was saying the first song or two, thought it was the lack of moisture in my brain caused my inability to decipher intellectual speech. Maybe it was the bright and flashing light show cooking my retinas ahahahahaha
Oh I kill myself if you could only be right here ith me you 'd be laughing too.
I couldn't read the words on the screen in the back I tried to squint to read them . I tried to focus. Just couldn't read them - I 'm not the blind one Kenny is. Jeremy started to dance- you know how young people do up and down and up and down bouncing like a tigger on his tail? UMMMMM I'm pretty sure the entire balcony was bouncing like that- except of course the two of us and the couple in front of us who literally crawled over the people next to them cling the steps as they ascended to to the stair case to get out of there before they plummeted to their death and their moment of glory . the look of terror on the poor womans face made me giggle even harder as we screamed to one another that we needed to have blue and mauve hair and be in babushkas! hahah
oh I went to the main floor to find liquid anything -0 pretty sure if I were to have taken her a can of beer she wouldve chugged it. haah ha oooohhhhh
( mind you my mel doesn't drink pop too often ) Came back with a diet coke and a sprite. Then what happens I get the burps and it's burger king all over again... hahahahaaaaa Now were are blinded by the flashing lights, deafened by the bboooommminnnnggg sub wolfers and afraid the balcony is going to plumet to the floor below and kill a few thousand people in the process. I'm all about Glory one day - didn't really imagine I'de go there during a christian concert - so I put my phone in my pocket for body identification and my purse over my arm. sat back and waited for the beams to give out. drinking my yukky diet coke and burping burger king to the tune of Savior he can move a mountain my god is mighty to save he is mighty to save ! Hahahah whatever we do - turns out to be an unusual but so fun memory.... Hahaha, wow it was really great. my ears are still ringing and my fingers are tingly , but my heart is overflowing with joy and yes my worship cup is over flowing too.... Have a happy day and know Im old.
