Oh btw, I've met DC Talk and like a zillion and one Christian bands including "Christafari," "Audio Adrenaline," "Jeff Moore," "Steven Curtis Chapman," "Newsboys," "Michael W. Smith," "Petra," "Sixpence None the Richer," "Whiteheart," ETC, ETC, ETC.

My friend Sheila and I used to go to concerts every month or so or I would go with my youth group. I also had an older cousin who used to introduce me to the bands because he was involved with scheduling them in at his college.

Funny story: I was getting Christafari's autographs and the one member, I'm pretty sure, was flirting with me. (I was a young thang then...yes, I said "thang"...) and he wrote "Stay B.U.T.ful for Christ" on the poster. And the other guy looks at him and says, "Stay butful for Christ?! What the heck is that supposed to mean?!" At this point, I'm cracking up.

The guy says, "YOU KNOW! Stay B....U....T...ful!" (Beautiful) They started arguing back and forth about whether or not it made sense. Oh, those were the days, my friend. :)

Getting hit on by a member of a reggae Christian group. Good times. Good times. ;)

Oh Kris - your comment cracked me up!! I remember the good ole days when we were young and cute! How funny!
that is a very funny story! Thanks for the mid morning much needed laugh

Kristi K. said...

Holli,
Hey! Now hold on there! We may not be young anymore, but I think we're both kinda cute if I do say so myself! :) Okay, maybe I'm not first thing in the morning, but maybe just a little cute even if I am practically a fossil.... :)

Actually, I was thinking that at that McDonald's get together when we took that group photo that's on your blog: we were a pretty decent looking group of broads for all of us being thirty-something moms. (teehee!) Other than I could stand to lose 30 lbs., we all still qualified as babealicious! HAHAHAHA! I crack myself up! ;)
