End of July OverKast Shows

OverKast (my husband's band) had two shows this last Sunday. Rob and I both had been really sick all week with a cold/flu but were able to pull ourselves through to go. OverKast is a three piece right now, so Rob was a little nervous about playing all the guitar parts alone while singing...especially he had been so sick. Thankfully they all did REALLY well! The first show was at a church for a car show. The Bass player's family was there as well as the drummer's girlfriend (and my good friend) Sarah. They pulled out some really cool new songs, so we were all really excited to hear them!

The second show was really exciting though. They played in a park in Pioneer Square in downtown Seattle. It was put on by a homeless shelter, Bread of Life Mission, which OverKast has been supporting and playing for this last year. James (pic of him with OverKast shirt above), who goes to Mars Hill Church (our home church) too, is the founder of Bread of Life and did an amazing job putting it on. Anyway, they had a few other bands play and also had speakers sharing their testimonies while they also served food for the homeless. The whole park was full of people. Many of them were homeless and others were just in the area and stopped by. It was so cool to see people so hungry for the truth and enjoying the music. The guys got to spend time talking with the people afterwards and passed out shirts and stickers. It was awesome! If you think of it, keep praying for the Bread of Life Mission! They are going to be putting out more of these outreach events in the future and would really appreciate the support. Here are some of the pics from that day.
