Switchfoot (the real story)

phOtOs bY juLiA STapP


Once upon a time there was a friend of ours. Lent us a Switchfoot CD. OK, whatever, ho hum. HMMmmm, maybe we should listen to this (Curtis)? I've heard something about this band. Ho hum, OK, whatever. Next thing you know BAM. The girls are in, faintly remembering Switchfoot from years gone by...Ah! HA! the Jingle Ball concert. Fast forward one year, if you can't beat 'em join 'em (Caryn). Well, now 3 or 4 years into the future (which is now the present). The Stapp's are die hard SF fans. Even made friends with other fans (crazy). Now this may sound boastful, it is, but we know the band. For some strange reason (luck, persistance, stalking) we have managed backstage passes! Every concert! No joke. On Friday, Chad (drummer) recognizes Curtis and says, "Hey man" or something like that. Curtis replies, "Dude, backstage passes tonight?" Chad says, "Right on" or something like that. BAM! We're hangin' with the band again.
We're also fans of Noteworthy. No chance of backstage passes. They're too big! (hee hee)

Cool! That must have been so dang fun. I guess I might have to start listening to this group. I am glad to hear though that you are a Noteworthy fan. By the way we just found out that Noteworthy will be performing in Oregon in Feb. for the ICCA quarterfinals. We will be going if you would like to join us. should be lots of fun and hopefully we can stop by and visit the Harris' while we are in town. Maybe we if we are lucky we can get a group shot with the beautiful girls of Noteworthy 2007 ICCA champs!
