Careful doing the wave. We don't want to read about any incidents in the news.

I didn't end up doing the wave after all. I found other ways to attract attention to myself just by being the only person who clapped when Michael Pritzl asked who DIDN'T want him to sing an old 77's tune. I was just being obnoxious, though -- I was very impressed with Pritzl, having never heard of him before. And when he and Roe joined each other towards the end, it was like "magic": They really work well and sound great together. Excellent vocal harmonies, superior guitar interplay, all in a VERY intimate setting (maybe 50-100 people at the most). I'm glad I went - I even got to chat with Doctor Love at the merch table for a couple seconds, but tried not to linger around too much.

I'm glad you were able to go and you liked the concert. Thanks for the review too. It's nice to hear about the concerts when you aren't able to go. It's almost like being there. Do you remember any of the songs that they sang?

i must echo mudboy on the magical vocal harmonies and guitar interplay.
i would have made the 200 mile drive just to hear The Rain Kept Falling in Love alone. The harmonies were lovely. But that wasn't even the highlite for me. The magical duo singing a snarling and passionate version of I can't Get Over It took that honor. i made the trip with a friend, Corbet, who has been THRASHED by some very odd and lamentable goings on at our church. He shared some of the ugly details as we drove south down Interstate 5 and continued over green tea, sushi, and tempura on Colorado Blvd. i think we both turned that powerful song into a prayer for ourselves, the pastor, and the leaders of our church. The only One who can help any of us get past this dreadful mess was present in theat beautiful Victorian living room as Dr. Love sang his guts out just a couple of feet in front of us. i still get chills thinking about it.
The individual sets were also excellent. Dr. Love included the Lutheran Hymn, The Boat Ashore, and Say Your Prayers. The greatest response of the entire evening came with the underwear line. Mr Pritzl later commented that the response spoke volumes about us and probably trouble our hostess. Mr. Pritzl also dubbed the front row the "beer lovers" or some such name. Corbet was drinking a dark ale as they sang and the couple next to me also had dark, brown bottles. But, i only had green tea this evening, so i did not appreciate being lumped in with the alcoholics. Later, Mike asserted that this was the first night he had ever had alcohol on stage (Pritzl brought him a glass of white wine as they started their set together).
Another great pleasure of the evening was meeting Rich Brimer (good friend of Wes Berlin, Theo, and DA) on the front porch. Rich convinced Corbet and i that we needed to see a ukelele/$10 dollar accordion band and convinced me that i will finally purchase Mike Knott's CD about David.
The humor between songs was great as it always is. A glaing exception was Dr. Love's idea to link their road show with a pooper scooper business they had seen advertised on one of the many hiways they had travelled together. Pritzl quickly tried to change the subject or move into the next song. i think Dr. Love was most funny when he repeatedly commented on how the audience seemed to like the 77s songs better and when he ridiculed Mr. Prtizl's emo music. Part of the banter revealed that Dr. Love never closes his eyes during the service when we are directed to do so, so that someone can say the sinner's prayer in anonymity or confess to some embarrassing sin. So, if you are ever worshipping with the good doctor, don't trust that your secrets will be kept in secret.
We drove back up 101 along the coast on Friday morning listening to Fun With Sound as the bright, February sun made diamonds in the water. Did it have to end? i guess it is time to put the I Can't Get Over Work prayer into practice. The work will not be pleasant, so many, many thanks to the Mikes for the big assist.

One final note, our hostess had put out two enormous platters of fudge brownies along with a huge assortment of cookies. When we left the merchandise area as the music was about to begin, there were probably 100 or more brownies left. When i retuned to that hallway after the encores, Dr. Love was standing near the table with all the goodies, and there was not a single brownie in sight. i'm not sure he is being honest about this diet thing...

Sounds like a great show. And the Knott disc is one of his best I think.

Hmmmm... that brownie incident sounds so similar to another brownie situation that I recall, but for fear of getting kicked off of the board, I won't go into it. 
That is a great review...

I'm curious - who edited the "peawinkling" exchange from the bathroom meeting? Was it you or ChristRock.com? I was going to plagiarize your original comments for my own review, except mine would've sounded too crude ("Imagine meeting you after Mudpappy-ing in the toilet!"). 
In any case -- good job, peawinkel! |
Actually, that was something I edited in for the message board users. My original review was first posted on MyBlog & noticed by Rob Blake from ChristRock (he's one of MyFriends). The rest is Christian rock music journalism history.
I'm hoping to give the young'uns a lesson on the Mike Roes, Terry Scott Taylors, Phil Keaggys, Kerry Livgrens, & Charlie Peacocks of the world.
