Our Wedding Anniversary in Bloomington

[Stacey Oldham]

My husband and I will be watching our second Third Day concert in Bloomington, Indiana from the third row of the IU Auditorium. It's a very special concert for us, because November 7, 2008 is our 21st Wedding Anniversary and we are IU Alums. As with Mac and his wife, we were high school sweethearts.

Can Third Day help me give my husband a special gift that night? Will you please play "I will always be true" and dedicate it to Brad and Stacey of Fishers, Indiana? We also are on the list to go back stage. We look forward to seeing you again! Thank you for being part of our special night!

In Him,

Stacey

We went to the Verizon Wireless concert earlier this year, but both agree that the Bloomington, Indiana show took the prize.

We enjoyed the fresh, contemporary style of Revive. Many of the women around us were commenting that they could look at the lead singer , Dave, all day regardless of what he sang. We're not sure whether it is sinful, but we overheard them say, "He is HOT! We're still trying to pronounce the word H-O-N-O-R correctly. We don't quite have Australian accents down.

We also loved NEEDTOBREATHE. speaking of HOT, their album HEAT really rocks! We're going to check with our Music Minister to see if we can include "Signature of Divine-Ya-weh" in worship. What a great song for congregational participation.

Finally, we want to say thanks to Mac, Mark, Scotty, David, and Tai for playing "Always Be True" for us on our 21st Wedding Anniversary. It was great to be able to share the evening with you in celebration of the Lord. We can testify that God is the necessary ingredient in every successful marriage.! Third Day, you helped us celebrate our love for each other and the faith that ties us together each day.

A job well done for all! Our hope is to make it to the Dove Awards in 2009. We want to be able to give Third Day a standing ovation when Revelation is named Album of the Year.

Be Happy! It is a great day to be alive!

Yep, that's me! My first Third Day concert was awesome. Bloomington, IN. I live about 30 minutes away from B-town (in Bedford!) Not only was it my first Third Day concert. But, it was my first concert, period! All I can say is, it's bound to be the best concert I will ever attend!

Revive opening was the best way to start the night off! Revive's quality is just mind boggling! Special thanks to Mac for being so involved in the Aussie's music. My second concert EVER will be Revive in Fishers, IN. on Valentines Day! Revive has this fansite. www.revivers.ning.com. It's really cool because you can talk to each band member. Today, in fact, me and Mike have been talking back and forth and he said to me today, " Wow, need to see a sign from you at one point... A huge cardboard sign with Revive is the best!" He's hilarious! They played a trick on me at the M&G after the concert! Well, I got a poster for the band to sign and Dave was first, then Ty, and after Ty got done talking to me, he handed me the poster. Next was Mike. He was talking to someone and I didn't want to be rude. So, I just went back to Rich ( me and my friend talked to him before we bought the posters) and he's like, "You didn't get Mike!" And, I just shrugged my shoulders. And, Rich tells Mike, "You didn't sign her poster!" So, I start walking over to him and Rich just HAS to say, "She says she doesn't care about you!" I never said that! And, so, I end up having to beg Mike to sign it and Ty, Rich, and Dave were laughing at us.

NEEDTOBREATHE... was awesome! In my opinion, I actually thought Revive was better. But, that's just me!

Third Day was my favorite though! I didn't have time to meet the guys because we had to leave as soon as I was done with Revive. So, I became a Wired member and I am looking forward to Champaign, IL. Special M&G.
