I realized after posting the other day that I hadn't shared with you how the concert went.
IT WAS GREAT ! ! !
In case you are just now tuning in and have no idea whatsoever of what I am speaking of, meet my friend Lori....
Yup....that's her and her son Landry. I had a picture of us posted, but she threw a hissy and made me take it down. Vanity! LOL I love her! Without Lori, there would have been no concert. She believed in the group and the reason enough to put herself out on the limb and get the groups here. I'm telling you this: by the time the concert arrived, I was ready to pull ALL of my hair out along with a whole bunch of other folks' hair! But, we survived and it was an absolute awesome event. We had a good turnout and were able to present a pretty decent sized check to SOMA - a Christian college organization at JCJC. That made it really worthwhile.
MIKESCHAIR'S Mike and Jesse's cake!
This is Aidan's Pirate Cake - Too Cute!
We had a birthday party for Aidan, Mike, and Jesse. It was a blast! Aidan knew that we were doing one for the guys in the band. He just didn't know that we had a really cool pirate cake made for him. He had an awesome time. Who wouldn't have with a cool cake like that and a ton of people at your party?!
Abandon started the show on the main stage. Honestly, I had never heard of them before planning the concert. However, by the time they were finished, I was a huge fan! Awesome group, awesome guys!
Our Boys!! Mikeschair! These are the guys that gave us the whole idea of "Rock the Block". We met these fellas at the Sanctus Real Concert and they were just amazing. They entertained our boys and they just really cared about their fans. We were so glad to be able to work with them again and to see them interact with the concert goers that came to "Rock the Block". One of the greatest things happened during the concert. There was a 14 year old that had really been having a tough time. After listening to Mikeschair, the teen sought out Mike (the lead singer) and asked him to pray with him. THAT'S what it was all about. Just an awesome day and night!
Just some various pictures of Mikeschair, Building 429, and the crowd. We had a great crowd! Imagine how much bigger it would have been if the area churches would have gotten involved. However, God had just who HE wanted there!
These are the last of the pictures to share today. Lori and Jon at The Loft made this day awesome! They provided the food and the most incredible Green Rooms that any band would want!
And last, but not least.... my chair! How cool is that?!
