me, dan and josh met the drummer from jimmy eat world this past tuesday. josh and i were giddy little kids running around backstage at their concert, eating free food, saying hi to people and being just general dorks. dan sat cooly on the special sectioned off bleachers, looking very much the rock star. we met cool bass players from bands and nice girls who helped coordinate programs for the university where the concert was. we even saw signs to jimmy's dressing room! signs.
the show was great, me and josh in the pit, all sweaty and gross, people crowd surfing and being sort of violent in a fun way (if that is possible). afterwards, we sat with dan in the bleacers and zach, the drummer, came to find us. Well not us so much as dan. he recognized dan's hair first. we talked for about 10 minutes and he had to go. he was so nice, so normal. very very cool guy, humble and just so normal! it was disarming and comforting all at once.
here is a picture of me and josh and zach. i am doing my best pirate face, (one eyed raptor, argh!) and josh is very happy because zach has a joke demo in hand.

“The humans live in time, but our Enemy (God) destines them to eternity. He therefore, I believe, wants them to attend chiefly to two things, to eternity itself and to the point of time which they call the Present. For the present is the point at which time touches eternity. Of the present moment, and of it only, humans have an experience analogous to the experience which our Enemy (God) has of reality as a whole; in it alone freedom and actuality are offered to them. He would therefore have them continually concerned either with eternity (which means being concerned with Him) or with the Present- either meditating on their eternal union with or separation from, Himself, or else obeying the present voice of conscience, bearing the present cross, receiving the present grace, giving thanks for the present pleasure.” CS Lewis, "The Screwtape Letters"
