BAND JOURNAL

Jan. 13-15, 2006 Ski Retreat
This was a different experience. We got to hang out with local youth while getting the opportunity to rock out with them. We played the show the first night and then after that we had to follow orders haha no it was definitely a life changing event. We had a guest speaker who was totally awesome!!! Let me just say you all better be ready for the rapture because it's coming fast and there is no time for second guessing!!
Well, I am out for the night! ~Tina
Feb. 25, 2006 Lighthouse
This night was A LOT of fun. We got to open up for two great bands. By the way....that day was really windy haha I don't know what made me think of that, but Sarah and I were trying to get our picture taken in front of the Church sign and were about blown away...ok ok maybe I am exaggerating just a little bit, but it was VERY WINDY haha. As far as the show we totally rocked out. It was a lot of fun!! We also met this really great little boy, this is the reason we do this. We like meeting new people, but we like witnessing and spreading our faith to everyone. This little boy was so precious and made my heart go out to him. I hope that every show we go to can bring just as many precious people into our lives.
God bless you all ~Tina
 
March 22, 2006 Word of Life Ministries

March 24, 2006 Apollo Idol
Ok, this was not your typical show...but we totally rocked anyways haha!! We were involved in a talent show and were in the top 5 out of about 20 acts. It was a different experience, I don't know if I am cut out to do the competition thing, but eh it was to raise money for their students to be able to have a prom!! I hope that their prom was loads of fun!!

April 28, 2006 Covenant New Life Church
This was a really fun show!! It was a long drive. There were a lot of young people because it was a lock in...who doesn't love a lock in haha?! There were several bands and we were just all having fun and rocking out for Christ.
God bless ~Tina
May 6, 2006 The Loft
When we finally got to State College haha we got to open up for a really great band called Down to One. They were filled with the Holy Spirit and that is so much fun to meet other bands that are doing what we are doing and trying to reach as many people as they can for Christ. I hope that when you all see us that you see Christ not only in our songs, but in our actions and attitudes!!
God Bless ~Tina

This was an all day event and tons of fun!! We got the chance to hang out with Olivia the Band, these guys are so much fun and really God-filled I love them so much!! They are also really funny haha!!! I feel honored to know that they had reservations to go out to dinner, but chose to stay and watch our band since they told us they would....this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. They also gave us some advice that we can use to improve ourselves as a band. Thanks goes out to Olivia the Band. There were about 8 other bands...everybody competely rocked out for Christ and that is always the best!! I hope that we can do another festival like this again!!
Rocking out in Christ ~Tina
July 23, 2006 Gilgal

Aug. 12, 2006 Rock Solid
Rocking out with Apologetix was unforgettable those guys are so much fun!! We had a blast during this show. It was a beautiful day and nice and warm. There were lots of bands, it was an all day event. The bands were all very good. We got our own dressing room I thought that that was pretty awesome.....our own room we are stars haha just joking. They treated very nice and I felt very welcomed. I loved this show and wish we could have another show like it really soon.
Enjoying Life ~ Tina
Sept. 16, 2006 Big Run Community Picnic
This was a neat show because it was Tim's first show. It was a lot of fun. We went and were all nervous because we didn't know how it was going to go....we practiced plenty of times but you never know what the first show is going to be like. It turned out really well and we also got FREE FOOD haha...like I said earlier Free Food is the best haha!! It was a nice day and a great show!!
God Bless ~Tina
Sept. 30, 2006 Rock of Ages
This show was a lot of fun. We got to play with several good bands.

We got to hang out with The Rented Bodies are really good friends from Kittanning, they are always a lot of fun!! We also got to meet some really cool people here and they have continued to support us which is totally rocking!! I hope that they will continue to support and pray for us!!
In His Love ~Tina
Oct. 21, First Church of God (in a tent)
You may be wondering what I mean when I put in a tent....well this church was in the process of being put into a new location so they were temporarily having church services in a tent haha but you know what it doesn't matter where the church service is because where two or more are gathered He is there!! He was definitely at the show. We played that night with The Rented Bodies, it was a lot of fun. It was really cold, but there was a bonfire. When we first got there I didn't feel good at all. But, fortunately for me Dennis and J-red from The Rented Bodies (my brothers) went to a store and bought me some Pepto...and after like 10 minutes I felt better haha I think I just did a commercial, but oh well!! This show was tons of fun!!
Thanks ~Tina
Dec. 16, 2006 Chapel of Hope
This show was really special because it was at Sarah and I's church. I enjoyed it a lot. We had a good turn out and Lauren played some praise and worship and did amazingly like she always does because she is so in love with Christ that it shines through. We also had a few members of The Rented Bodies grace us with their presence. I loved playing this show, it was really neat because even though it was at our church there were people from all over the community and some I never even saw before. I love meeting new people. God has a way of just amazing me every day!!
God's Amazing Love ~Tina
Dec. 31, 2006 New Years Eve at the Indiana Skating Center
FUN FUN FUN, this show was so much fun. It was an all night event...well at least for me haha!! We played along with The Rented Bodies and Lauren. We all had a blast. It wasn't a very formal show, but it was a lot of fun. There were lots of people there and it was great getting to witness to some of them. It was neat because while we were playing people could be skating. I remember that at one point a bunch of us were jumping so much that my sides were aching, but I guess that's what you get when you are enjoying yourself too much haha!! I hope that we get to do this again next year and if we do you all better come out ;-)
Happy New Year ~Tina
Feb. 17, 2007 Loft Coffee House
This was the first show of the year. It was really neat we got to open up for a really cool band. We got to hang out a little with them. This coffee house is in State College this is the second time that we have been here and everytime it is a lot of fun. God does things and brings people into our lives everyday, it is just up to us to use these opportunities. We met this really cool young man who just recently committed his life to Christ. I hope that he never gives up and continues doing what he knows is right. You are strong, but God is stronger..when things get tough, toughen your faith. God will never let you down and He is always there!! Trust me, I wouldn't lie to you :-)
In His Service ~Tina
March 10, 2007 Ohio Mustard Seed Cafe
Hour after hour we travel to get to our next destination, Ohio. It wasn't that bad, it was a very uneventful trip which is always good. God had His hand on us during that trip. The show itself was a lot of fun, we totally rocked out. It was a really great trip because we got to meet up with our really old friend, Chris. He has always been supportive of our band and a really good friend. I want to thank him for coming out and hanging out with us. We also got to eat at Cracker Barrel I don't know if any of you have ever been there, but it is really good....good old homestyle southern cooking!! I love it haha!! We got to Ohio really early so we were wasting time walking around a Wal-Mart, I think it was in Dayton. It was the BIGGEST Wal-Mart I have ever seen or been in. It was GIGANTIC....I don't know why. That trip was so much fun. Timmy in the front seat...all to himself what was up with that haha just picking on the way home I got a seat all to myself, but it wasn't really by choice. I was sick, but it's ok because I really felt that God was there during that trip and while we were playing. After the show we met this really great man who just recently committed his life to Christ and he was sharing his testimony. It was amazing to hear what he went through and how he found God. I hope that if you ever need anything that you would contact us so that we can pray for you. Sometimes things happen and we don't know why, but God has a reason and plan for you life. I thank God that we were able to play that show. That man is an example of why we do what we do. We couldn't do any of this if it weren't for God and the abilities that He has given to us.
Are we there yet? ~Tina

December 31, 2005 News Years Eve Skate Night

 
 When we first got to the skating rink we had to do a sound check and make sure everything was right. After that we got to hang out and skate until our time to play. As we were walking on to the "stage" for the show Sarah and I turned around and saw our friend Marty, we were walking over to say hello and right before our eyes dun dun ta daaaaaaaaaaa!!!! there was WESLEY BOGGS, our really good friend from TENN. He is such an awesome person. The night went so nice. After we played we got a few minutes break and then we had to do worship with our good friend and band photographer Lauren Iandiorio. She lead and we were back up, but it was sounded so good. God was there and I believe He was Blessing People. After a few hours of skating and jamming we went to my house for my 21st Birthday. Ok I am going to make a confession on here.......... I am 21 and I love SNOOPY, so my birthday cake was SNOOPY  And being that I turned 21 there was tons of.....pop, junk food, candy and hotdogs. It was a fun and a very enjoyable night. Well, I am going to sign off for the night. Talk to you later.
 
Love in Christ,
Beanie

December 29, 2005 - Greenville Mustard Seed Jam House
 
The show went nicely. It is such a coolplace to play at because it is in the basement of some building, but there is tons of furniture and a lot of GUMMY WORMS!! There was both sour and sweet worms. It was great. The guys in charge of the place, sorry I am horrible with names, are awseome and made us feel right at home. We played really well. We were still a little bit tired from the night before and also the drive down sort of took my energy. Would you believe we had to take Interestate 79 again. GRRRRRRRR AGGGGHHHHHHH  But, it was ok and well worth the trip. And I also must say before this I come to an end I dominated my brother in DDR, ok ok maybe not dominated I just liked that word, we both did well. Well, I am out for now, talk to you later.
 
Love in Christ,
Beanie

December 28, 2005- MARS, PA
 
Hello everyone this is Beanie. Okay the only thing I have to say is I hate driving on Interstate 79 hahaha that's only because we got lost for about half an hour and we were driving around aimlessly, because no one knew where we were going. It wasn't until I said ooooooooooo I think I saw a sign for Mars, that we actually turned around and maybe just maybe then we had our destination. Well, we showed up about 20 minutes late. I was soooooooo embarassed,  I didn't even want to play at that time, but we did and we did rather well for being late, having only prepared four songs and in the end we were allowed to play 5. All in all I would say the trip was worth while, oh oh I almost forgot there was FREE FOOD hahaahha. I love food especially when it is FREE. I mean come on who doesn't love FREE STUFF!!!!  Ok, so there were like 4 or 5 other bands, but the last band Second Solution asked us to sing the last song with them. They were funny guys and very nice. They were also an awesome band. I suggest you listen to them online if you can, espeically if you are into guitar and guitar rifts the guitarist was AMAZING!!!! And the drummer sang lead. Can you picture this rocking on the drums and yet singing at the same time and not missing a beat!! And last but certainly not least the Bassist, you have to love bassists!!!!  Well, that's about all for now I will check in with you guys later!!!
 
Love in Christ,
Beanie

 

December 28th- Mars CMA Church Lock-In
 
Hey this is Sarah.. So im here 2 tell you all about the Mars show. Well we got directions but good ol' mr.i thought of a way that might be faster.. So we did not rush!! (( and we were late!!!)) haha we got lost we couldnt find the exit... Our buddy Nick from the State of Indiana was there 2 cheer us on.. and hang out with us it was a blast. Well we were supposed to be the first band on.. but that didnt happen. It took about 1.5 hours to get there.. and we werent sure if we were going 2 be allowed 2 play.. But they were cool about it and threw us on second. There were 4 other bands there... I dont remember all the bands name.. They all rocked out hard.. and they were equally good. The band Second Solution rocked our faces off tho!! Those guys were so awesome.. and the drummer was the lead singer... i thought that was the coolest!! He was the only singer and he rocked hard on the drums... impossible!? i know.. i have a hard enough time playing the guitar and singing hah... anyway.. they were the last band.. and they asked tina and i to help them sing their last song a cover it was so funny... they actually moshed.. it was cool! Well we left and got home real late... and didnt get much sleep for our show the next day!

Marty being the amazing guy that he is he made us food lol (chicken beans n pasta) mmm mmm! Well we did sound check after the switch all was well. At about 6:30 all the bands met in the room and prayed. Then the first band went on I think their name was "beacon hill" or something like that ((sorry I have bad memory)) then we went on! I think we did rather well. :) Then the switch came on and played old stuff I loved it! They rocked hardcore. hahaha my fav. song by them would have to be the mullet song... hahahahhahaha don’t know about it e-mail them and ask them... www.theswitchx.com . We saw alot of our old friends who were in the band called Paravel ((R.I.P)) all but Wesley Boggs! ((he’s in TN right now)) it was great seeing them it brought back alot of memories.

October 14,2005                Clarion University
 
 Hello Silver Halo fans!  
 
Alycia here, just dropping a message about our show in Clarion Pa.  A very special show to me not only  because it was my first with the band, but my parents graduated from Clarion University.
  This was a benefit concert put on by Clarion's Campus Crusade for Christ and the Red Cross for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Our performances rocked. A huge thank you goes out to everyone that made the concert a success including the bands....Poetic Disciples and Shudder. They are very talented individuals.
    My favorite part though, had to be when my mom bought some homemade cookies and sweets which were delicious. (mmmm, I could go for some peanutbutter fudge right now)
Thanks to everyone that attended, check out our show page to see where we are playing next.... and I hope to see YOU there!
