Soulfest Memories

This has been my summer of music festivals. First was the Cornerstone festival in Illinois just over a month ago. On Sunday my wife, nephew, and I returned from New Hampshire where we attended the Soulfest music festival. I was apprehensive about the weather for this event. Only two days prior to leaving, the forecast was calling for rain and/or thunderstorms each day. The Lord had other plans, bright sunshine and very warm days were the norm.

One of the joys of Christian music festivals is the diversity in styles of music. Here's a list of who I was able to enjoy:
Abel
Becoming The Archetype
Children 18:3
Family Force 5
Peter Furler, Paul Colman, and Phil Joel jamming
Going old school with Lost Dogs
Love and Death with  Brian "Head" Welch
Canadian band Manic Drive
The hip-hop of Rapture Ruckus
Dueling violins and guitars of Reilly
Switchfoot's amazing show
War of Ages

 The highlight of Soulfest was seeing two of the greatest ska bands of all time. 
Matt "Mojo" Morginsky of The O.C. Supertones
The insanity of Reese Roper with Five Iron Frenzy
