It was pretty nice. It was the last concert of their tour, which means (and this is applied to all concerts, shows, tours, and anything else related globally) that it was prank night. Bethany Dillon opened. She was talking about this song she did for a movie called Dreamer (both the name of this song and the movie), which has something to do with horses and a horse trainer. So the guys from The Afters came out on a wooden horse and had the guys running sound play the theme song from the show 'Mister Ed'. Bethany was actually crying from embarrasment. The Afters show was uneventful.

However, Jeremy Camp's group got the worst of it. After their first few songs, they went to do an acoustic set, so they all get on their stools, and pull out acoustic guitars, an acoustic bass, a slap-box for the drummer, and the keyboard player pulled out an accordion. Well, the lead vocalist from The Afters ran out, pulled out Jeremy Camp's stool and replaced it with a chair designed for use by pre-schoolers. He (Camp) had to adjust the mic stand down so much it almost wouldn't go further down. The vocalist from The Afters then pulled out a cow bell and started playing on it. But that wasn't the end. During this period, two of the guys who helped them with their equipment came out with their little instruments and started playing a little French sarenade(sp). Apparently, this was something that they'd been doing the entire tour, typically when they were on their buses watching movies.

Did it end there? Nope. The Afters pulled out an inflatable Frosty the Snowman and made him dance along with Jeremy Camp's music. They popped him after a while. Also, after the acoustic set, while they were playing one of their heavier songs, The Afters all came out with a Spongebob Pinata and began pulverizing it. Seeing as the guy was blindfolded, this went on for two frikkin minutes.

I was going to get my gas mask autographed after the show, and I was also gonna try to get Bethany Dillon's phone number (she's only a year older than I, she sings well, plays pretty decent guitar, loves the Lord, and she lives in Ohio. She's also really hot), but my youth pastor wanted to leave right after the concert, so I didn't get a chance.
