I have been asked repeatedly(sp) to write a new post so, heres one.
Last Saterday, was a festival called Rock of Ages. It was over in calistoga, so it didnt take very long to get there thankfully. Some of the bands that played there were MxPx, Phil Joel(who used to be with the News Boys) and Jars of Clay, who were probably the biggest attraction there. Phil Joel was the first of the three to play. He played lots of good songs and gave his testomony along with them. It was really cool how he told us about the songs he had written and how a certain event in his life had inspired him to write it. Next was MxPx. I cant say that i liked them, because really, i didn't. I didn't know any of the songs, and it really didn't seem like they were a Christian band. Jars of Clay was really good. Even though i only knew one of the songs that they played they were still alot of fun to watch. In between bands playing, I walked around with groups of friends, and looked at the stands that they had around the property. There was a place where skateboarders could go and do tricks, a shirt shop that had shirts with sayings like, I lost my mom in the mosh pit(to those of you who dont know what a mosh pit is, it is where people go way up front and all crowd around the stage.) I'm the Christian the Devil warned you about. And then my personal favorite, Jesus love you, but I'm his favorite. =) I thought that that one was funny. Another place was selling Christian books, clothes, cds and videos. And throughout the field there were food venders. So, it was a really fun time and I had lots of fun.

Glad you had fun.
I have to agree with you, that shirt is pretty good (Sorry for double posting)
Lucky you... :D
I couldn't go to rock of ages because of school work. Glad to hear it was good this year.
Sounds like a fun day!!!!!! Did you go with anyone or with a group?
kayla you forgot to mention Jars of Clays apperal!! :P!! Yuck. i thought MxPx was pretty good. yah they didn't seem very christian, but they were good.
I was surprised Rock of Ages invited MXPX... from what I heard they sold out a couple years ago.
Cool, I am glad you had fun!
I dont really like the shirt "Jesus loves you but im his favorite" I think it dosnt send a very good christian message. I didnt listen to phil joel very much, mostly because of me being on the rock wall, but i didnt like it so much. He kept inturupting his songs to talk about stuff. but thats just my opinon.
i went with our high school group.
i just decided that what they were wearing wasnt worth mentioning.
it didn't send out the most christian message, but it was still a funny shirt.
Well, it's not that bad of a message compared to if I was the designer for it. Like 'Don't save lives for Jesus, let's take lives for Jesus' or 'You better be a Christian Cause I work for the inquisition'. Speaking of which,that would make a good shirt.
i wish i could have gone.
I liked the "I lost my mom in the mosh pit"
