Kutless Concert

I just got home from my first Christian band concert. It was one of a kind. I mean, I knew the band and all, I listened to their cds (thanks to Horacio and Nancy for introducing Christian music). I guess I was just simply amazed how bad my stereotyping could be.

When we got to the place, they were searching bags and they had metal detectors. I was like, this is a Christian band concert, right? Why would there be any violence? Then the rules were set - you could take tons of photos but no videos and no moshing. Moshing?? Does that happen during a Christian music concert? Then, after the first front act by Run Kid Run (which I heard for the first time and liked) I guess people could go overboard, a bit. Then the second (Red) and third act (Disciple) was really, really, really heavy rock music. I couldn't really appreciate them since I couldn't understand a single word of most of their songs. It was really loud that Nancy, Marleni and Horacio had to take a break from the concert.

Then Kutless came on. The lead singer wasn't in good shape but gave a really great show. I am so glad that they performed the songs that I like. The drummer was really great too, he had a solo act and it was absolutely great. But hey, don't take my word for it, since I really am not a great heavy music fan. The drummer's cute looks also contributed to my little crush on him. :) If only I knew how to play the drums or any instrument for that matter....

Anyways, the concert ended and we were starving!! Nancy had to, unfortunately, go straight home for she has a long trip and she has an early day tomorrow. So, Emmanuel, Horacio, Marleni and I trooped to McDonald's and all ordered the same thing - Big Mac meal and four-piece chicken nuggets. What a great way to end the night. :)

So, thank you Nancy and Horacio for taking us and introducing Christian music to us and for letting me see that Christian comes in different forms, they could be punk rock, heavy metal music lovers too. :)
