rockin' worship roadshow.

spent good friday evening in a little different fashion this year. mercyme came through town so a few of the youth group kids and myself went to check them out. the line was very long when we got their. like an hour before the doors opened.
having the large line indicated a packed out house. and it was... completely sold out and the kansas coliseum is no small arena some say around 11,000+ on hand for the event. i enjoyed the afters, i have their cd, they were actually a surprise band to show up, because the other band's lead singer had a baby... so no concerting for the new mom i guess [adison road].

i didn't get a picture of tenth avenue north, but they played before jeremy camp, and i really like their stuff. jeremy camp did a good job, and even gave a mini sermon type thing.

and then mercyme was up and rocked out. their lead singer bart has an amazing voice. and i found out that he is quite humorous also. he had good comic relief at the beginning of one of the more upbeat/dancing songs... went something like this: "i grew up southern baptist... so dancing was a sin... but... if everyone danced then it was choreography... which is a beautiful thing. so... during this next song make sure you are dancing because if you don't you'll cause someone else to sin..." i found that extremely funny, being as how i'm around the "don't move cause its sin crowd" once in awhile.

good evening, and through out the evening all the bands spoke to the importance of the evening and the sacrifice of Jesus. had a good time and worshipped through song really well.
