so i got to church at 8:55, hopped into kents van sometime after that. went and picked up timmy at west fargo. and then got donuts and got to the civic center at 10 and started setting up with a bunch of other people for the josh mcdowell superchic[k]. being in the civic center with no one in it makes it look really small. i picked the right stratagy and followed around one of the guys in charge and got to do fun stuff, ran the huge light board for a while. its really nice. i know what less then half, maybe less then a fourth of the buttons do. it was fun.


got done setting up at 2:30 went and at and then went back for the dress rehersal/soundcheck for the drama. we meet "tom ross" he is like " i am the  production manager, emcee, and assign for the bold truth tour." he was a funny guy. i am glad i met him later he said "if anyone gives you any problems just let me know... i'll take them out, bam bam." then went to "supper" i didn't really eat anything (well i had some fries) cause i had chinese buffet for lunch just like 2 hours earlier. we skipped back to the civic that was fun. i like skipping


i saw some people. that was good. saw some i expected others i didn't. all good people. then the concert started. superchic[k] was really good. the first drama thing went really well. good job lizz, natalie, and curtis. so then there is more superchic[k] and then josh comes out so i have to go get the mic for my drama with krista and chris, the two others in it with me. so we go up on stage to where the sound guy is to get the stage. being on stage in the civic center with it full of 3000 people... makes it seem really big.


so we go out to out spots for the drama. they have these nice signs on them that say something like "this spot is resevered but if you want to be on the big screen sit close to it" so i sit down and the kid next to me says "that spot is saved" and i say "umm yeah... i know" josh talked for a while and then it was time for our drama. really i don't know how it went. it just went. i hope it was good. all the crew and superchic[k] said it was the best they had seen on the whole tour but i am not sure if they meant it or if it was just them being nice. cause they are nice. i really don't know


well then it was the rest of the talk by josh. when he asked people to come forward. i saw three people i knew go up (well 5 but 2 of them were going with) that is awesome. 2 of them i know have been "worked on" for 4 years almost. so that is great. pray for them that they can continue in what theys started tonight.


afterwards i got to help take down aswell. again great fun. maybe i should do that as a job sometime. who knows. anyways we got done at 12. so grand total iwas at the civic for 13 hours today. with almost no break.. ooh


well i have to give a quick "shout out" to natalie, curtis, chris, lizz, and krista who were the other "student actors" they were great to work with. i had sort of known two of them before but not really. i came in late in the game and they well all the great type of people who you can be friends with right away so thanks for that. if you ever read this that is.


I think thats all i got for today


ANSWER: none of you were close... i went through 21 hours of tape.
