olid Rock Christian bands give different meaning to rock-n- roll ock-n-Roll is here to stay at least Christian rock-n-roll, that is. The first artist to rock-Ra ley last fall was Steve Camp. Most of his songs were taken from his latest album, After Gods Own Heart . Students filled Raley Chapel and Camp Iivened them up with his up- beat music and strong stage presence. As the time of finals ap- proached, students came alive with the musical sounds of Wayne Watson. Watson opened his concert with The Peace that Passes Understand- ing, from an earlier album, Giants in the Land, and closed the concert with, Friend of a Wounded Heart. The capacity crowd seemed to enjoy the concert, and it gave students a chance to relax from studying. Watson ap- peared to have also enjoyed the concert. The audience was so warm and responsive. I felt a real intimacy with the audi- ence- a sort of mutal apprecia- tion, said Watson. During the Spring, the cam- pus went wild with the dual concert of Steven Curtis Chap- man and Whiteheart. Chapman opened the concert with songs from his latest album First Hand. The standing - only crowd was responsive, and able to get autographs from Chap- man during an intermission be- fore Whiteheart came on stage. Because of the capacity crowd, concert goers found that the only extra space to see the con- cert, was in the aisles and bal- cony stairs. Whiteheart exploded on the stage with smoke, lights, and a dynamic sound. The majority of the songs they performed were from their latest album, Emergency Broadcast. Billy Smiley, their guitarist and key- boardist, seemed to have thought the concert went well. For a great time in the Lord, and for the loudest audiance in the world, go to OBU, said Smiley. Before they left cam- pus, lead singer, Rick Florian, had a closing comment, stat- ing, Heaven's gonna be a rockin' place. I Concerts W ayne Watson sings, Two Loves , from his album, Watercolnred Ponies . Watson's concert was one with music, and he spoke to the audience often about views he had on the Christian life. - Photo by Brad Shirley
