What did I miss? Greg X Voltz, Mylon and the boys, The Altar Boys. Thanks to my big brother Andrew for offering to assist Rich Kifer in taking me to the hospital if needed and Rob Laters for carring me to the porta jon.

But I'm probably totally misunderstanding or misremembering something you said...and that might not even make sense depending on timing... and it's your life, so I certainly can't argue any dates with you! :)<br /><br />I DO know that Larry was at that very first Ichthus. I fell asleep on someone elses blanket during his show. <br /><br />Servant CD:<br />http://www.christiandiscs.com/product.php?productid=27953&cat=0&page=1#Brookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05941025887514143276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5310981.post-13224681999589515002006-12-05T21:45:00.000-07:002006-12-05T21:45:00.000-07:00Matthew Ward and Larry were big for me, but I thin...Matthew Ward and Larry were big for me, but I think those were post Last Days Ministries for me, so that would make me college at that point. At some point I will address the music of my college years. The Violet Burning needs their due.<br /><br />Probably in that list I did forget to mention PETRA and SERVANT. When I was in Israel for 2 months at 16, Light Manuevers and Beat the system were all I had to listen to. I love both of those.<br />Where did you hear about Caught in the Act?Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12494823779999456396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5310981.post-20303819498723704942006-12-05T13:03:00.000-07:002006-12-05T13:03:00.000-07:00"so long as Steve wouldn't have cause to write a f..."so long as Steve wouldn't have cause to write a funny song about what I am doing, I must be ok"<br />Ha ha ha! that's pretty funny. <br /><br />No Larry Norman? Matthew Ward? there are obviously dozens you haven't written about here, but I don't know how well they fit the parameters you've set for inclusion. <br /><br />I just wrote "part II" last night on my blog (we seem to have again been on that same wavelength), which is actually the story of my "escape" from CCM. But I certainly share your enthusiasm for those years and the Christian music we soaked our lives in back then. I'm thinking one of my next "list" blog entries might be a "top 100" list of either christian artists or albums (which would require a larger list and more subjective thought). <br /><br />there are too many Ichthus memories to even start. '84 was my first year too (I always thought your first year was during the mudslide of '83?) and it's still one of my favourite memories of my youth. The hearing loss and ringing began that year, as I rushed down to sit in the very front for Rez Band, unaware of what earplugs were at the time. I went broke that year buying albums and had to beg the vending tent (which was an actual building at the time) to give me a refund on some so I could eat. Spending more money than I actually have on albums...some things never change.<br /><br />did you see that Servant's "Caught in the Act" just got re-released on CD?Brookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05941025887514143276noreply@blogger.com
