my take of the Petra concert!
Posted: Thu Oct 06, 2005 6:19 pm
Ok sorry it has taken me so long to put my input about the concert,many of you know that I had to be at work at 6:45 am,after the concert. so I really got no sleep.
Ok, Darron,Meagan,Jessica and myself went to this together,Meagan was really iffy,because of being really sick,because she is pregnant. But praise the Lord,she did fine.
We got there kinda early for our tickets and we saw people that were from the zone,although,non of us had never met in person,it was wonderful,like we were family. we got to go to the interview area. Oops! I met my Hero,Sue! Man it was so good to just give her a huge hug! We chatted while we were waiting,we saw Peter Fuller,I asked him if i could drive his car,(he said NO). we got to stand in at the stage during the whole concert(taping) I noticed some guy and I told Sue that it was Jim Cooper. UMMM,lets see,oh yes i asked Paul to do a solo and he eventually did! He told me that if it got onto the dvd he had me to thank! oh his drum stick flew to me,during the solo, I was nice and handed it back to Jim,I actually got one after the concert. Ok lets see,oh I went to John Lawry and kinda jokingly ask if i could play his keyboards,he was like I would let you but they are turned off. Then he was like you can try on my walk-around,at that moment i said I am gonna be the next Petra keyboardist,anyway there was some applause,about that. He was sooo nice and we talked about adoption,and cool stuff. I talked to Bob's wife and she was a sweet heart,after the concert she was like you look tired,and then I told her about our drive home and work the next day,she said she would be praying for us. We talked to Greg and his wife,He asked were We were from and i was like ky,he was like JOhnathan? yep he knew kinda who i was, neat! ok i coud just go on and on and on. I have to say that Jim was very generous,he got me the stick (he owed me LOL) and we just chatted,you know we all make mistakes in our lives and i thought it was very nice that he had something to do with the taping. Last but not least. Sue and I had been kinda joking about getting John with a prank,and we had the chance,I hope that She puts it on his site,My wife as many of you know is preganant. Well we went up to John,and I was like,John we want to thank you for all that you have done for Petra and so on. I have something kinda strange to ask you ,we are gonna have a baby and since Petra won't be around after it is born could you please sign her belly? he was like sign her belly? yes! and then i proceeded to tell him that when we got home were gonna have it tattooed on! His face,you all had to see his expression! Priceless! any he actually signed her belly,he gets the last laugh though she can't get it off. what a nite. I have to say God bless you Petra! and God bless all you PETHEADS! I love you all! Sorry for this being so dang long,it was too much fun though!!!!!!!!![/i]
