Inaugural Event Announced for The Stroh

Post by Redwingtom »

A concert featuring Christian bands Sanctus Real (from Toledo) and Tenth Avenue North has been announced for August 13th.

Even if you don't like Christian music, I can tell you that these bands are phenomenal and will be well worth your attendance!

I'd echo that... IMO, I think most "Christian" bands kind of suck, but Sanctus is among the few that are just GREAT BANDS who happen to play Christian music.

Interesting tid-bit... Sanctus used to play at Grace Lutheran in Elmore every-so-often before "hitting it big" and becoming Grammy nominees and all. Local dudes, great guys, great ROCK music, and I'll bet a sell-out! Great first event for the Stroh!

Having a Christian Band as the first act has to be good Karma for the new building, right?

If that's the case how about we find the members of the rock group Queen, if they are still alive, and have them perform only two songs 'Aonther one bites the dust' and 'We are the Champions'. Unless Freak requests bicycle race :)

Hey ding-dong, Karma is from Buddhism. For good Karma, we'd want chanting Thai monks, or perhaps Tibetan throat singers.

I still don't understand how that has anything to do with my perception of the quality of most "Christian" bands.

If you are the praying sort, please remember Sanctus Real lead singer Matt Hammitt's young son Bowen. Bowen was born last September with a heart defect and will be underdoing his second surgery tomorrow morning.
