Concert Extravaganza

So... over the last few months I have had the chance to go to two "hip" concerts with my brother. Yeah, even though he is in college now, we still have some pretty fun adventures. Last month we went to Olivet University in Illinois. This concert was so ghetto it was sweet. Seriously. Hip-hop and Rap in a pretty ridged Christian college setting always crack me up. Especially when they try to go cool and are flashing on and off the lights... on their LOGO!! haha. The bro and I had a good laugh. It was just a crazy concert over all-- but definitely more fun than I barganed for. And a sweet deal-- $10 get's you in and both of the artists CDs. oh.. I forgot to mention-- artists were 4th Avenue Jones and John Reuben. Yeah.. like I said ... ghetto. To make this concert even more fun was the fact that my brother was leaving for college-- the NEXT day! haha.. yeah... when you are young you do "stupid" things. (well worth it)

The other concert we went to was DJ Maj. Once again this was a small concert at a church in Ft. Wayne, IN. Talk about SWEET youth program! The bro and I even got to play a good game of our favorite Dance Dance Revolution before the concert. um yeah... I need to WORK OUT! *sorry.. rant there* Can I just tell you how wonderful that game is? And a good work out to boot! if you haven't tried it DO IT NOW! :) Anyway, the concert was great. I really like DJ Maj's new CD-- "Boogieroot" let me tell you--it makes this hippie/artsy-chick feel like I should be driving in a car with huge chrome rims and a spoiler. Yeah... it's just that good.. well, I guess if you like that sort of thing. He just has a really good beat and a great message too. I think this is the kind of stuff more teens should get into-- because it DOES have that good beat and clean lyrics. My favorite part.

It's been fun. It makes me happy when I can hang out with my siblings. I can't wait to see what other adventures await us in the months ahead!

4th Avenue Jones & John Reuben Concert
Meet the Jones'. The 4th Avenue Jones that is ;-) This pic shows the logo I mentioned above (the one that they felt they needed to obsessively flash lights on)
I didn't know Napoleon Dynomite knew how to play the base for John Reuben!?Two hot studs. *wink* Ok.. so I have to point out that John Reuben's shirt says "Black to the Future." That just totally cracked me up... because this boy is soooo white.. but it so fits him.
The whole Jones Crew.
Awe... I just love babies... especially ones with "fro"-hawks

DJ Maj Concert
This is the stage where DJ Maj rocked the house. It was at a Missionary church. Let me just tell you this was one cool youth group set up. Before the concert we got our groove on with a little Dance Dance Revolution. yeah.. it was that sweet.
Gettin the mix on.
DJ Maj and crew. They were so down to earth. Actually, this shot might show up on DJ Maj website... I guess we will just have to wait and see.
