Sweet River, roll all over me-Waterdeep

Well I figured since everyone seems to has a blog, I figure I should start one as well. Although I really dont have much to write about, it is nice to have some where I can express thoughts and ideas that might pop into my head.

Sunday night I was able to go to a Waterdeep concert. And for those of you who are not familiar with them, they are an amazing Christian band. They have been around for a long time, and produced many albums, but have not been doing any concerts for a while. At least not in Tulsa. Well anyways, I was able to go with my younger sisters,who have never seen them in concert. Being able to hear them play again was such an experience. They have impacted my life so much and over the years their music has always moved me in a way that no other band has. Their music is simple and some how has always spoken directly to me. Over the years their music has brought me to tears so many times because I could relate to the pain of the human struggle. But the music has always made me happy because the beat of the song and the hope that their message brings. And the common love for the music brought me close to some people. The friendships didnt last but when I hear some songs it takes me back to that time in my life. "Aaron, I dont think I've ever wanted as much To be free as I've longed to be know...One line from a songs that I have always liked.

Seeing them in concert brought back all those good and bad feeling rolled into one. I was able to meet and talk to Lori Chaffer for the first time. But for some reason I turned into a complete bumbling idiot. Some how I felt like I knew her and it would be like talking to an old friend that I have not seen in a long time. But when I introduced myself I realize I was a stranger and as I tried to regroup I must have just sounded silly. But I was glad that I at least got to meet her, shake her had and introduce her to my sisters.
