Switchfoot
The other big event of the weekend was taking Noah and his friend Ryan to the Switchfoot Concert in Charlottesville, VA!
I liked Switchfoot before, but now I'm hooked! This was one of the best concerts I've been to b/c it was a smaller venue and so it was really personal. In fact, Jon Foreman (the lead singer/guitar) actually ran out into the crowd at one point and was singing! He was literally standing on a chair right in front of Noah! So cool!!!
They put on an awesome show! I wish I would have gone up in the pit instead of staying in the seats, cause everyone in the seats was pretty mellow ... but the people up in the pit were going NUTS!
If I can figure out how to get these pics off my new blackberry, I'm going to post a sweet pic I got of the lead singer when he was right next to us!
What I LOVE about Switchfoot is that they actually sing about life, faith, and relevant societal issues! Bands that actually write and sing b/c they feel that they have a purpose beyond entertaining are the kinds of bands that I really can jump on board with. I don't mind the ones that just entertain too, b/c I'm all for fun. But at the end of the day, they leave you with nothing! A band like Switchfoot not only entertained us, but gave us something to talk about after the concert. And I've still been thinking about some of the things they said, and some of the lyrics they sang. It was an all around great concert and great time for me and Noah!
Anyway, had a BLAST with Noah.
