Oh man, another great concert by Jars of Clay....
Me, Stace, V, and I went to the Jars of Clay concert tonight at Avalon. So great... so great. JoC had two special guests, Steve Dolopolous (i hope I'm spelling that right), and Maeve, a trio of women plus a percussionist. Steve was good, haha, he was so funny. I'm also in awe of his finger picking technique, it was quite cool. Heehee, as we were leaving, I saw him walking towards his van/car/etc, so I yelled out "Steve! Good job tonight!" and he actually answered me, ::biggrin:: it was quite cool. Maeve was really good too, their harmonies were great. Andy actually knows one of the women in the band.
Jars of Clay came on around 9:45 and rocked the stage until 11:30/11:45ish... they were so awsome. It was really cool because they did a few songs that are less well-known but still great like Tea and Sympathy and they also did a great rendition of Freebird by Lynard Skynard. Lets see, what other songs did they do... Crazy Times, Flood, The Valley Song, Show You Love, Revolution, Amazing Grace... and a bunch of other songs that I can't really remember right now. I'll update if I can to see if I can remember the complete set list. For their encore, they performed Worlds Apart, and then finished up with Love Song for a Saviour. I would have preferred if they performed the last two songs in reverse order, but still fabulous encore songs. I'm just remembering the last JoC concert that I went to where the ended with Worlds Apart, it was only Dan and Steve on stage (or Matt, I can't remember that well), and Dan and Steve slowly left the stage and the audience was still singing... so great... it was really powerful, to be cliche. It always gets me when I see tons of people lifting their hands in praise... :)

ps: okay, now I know that this is really in advance, but there's a JoC concet on May 22, 2004 in Bethleham, PA... anyone want to go? ;) :)
