OLP and Me.

Post by JeffWich »

Well it's been a long time since I've been to these forums (so long I forgot/was deleted my last user name) but they finally made it back down to Georgia and I was fortunate enough to participate in the spiritual experience that was their October 13th performance at the Roxy in Atlanta, GA.

Anyways, my name's Jeff. Naveed is my favorite song- it changed my life back in high school. Glad to 1. still be here, and 2. be back to the forums.

I'll post a review, pics, and movies of the show the other night in the concert review section, but to make this thread interesting because I'm not particularly interesting, here's a pic I took/photoshopped from the other night:

Cheers.

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

wtf? what's "Emtee" and how can anyone possibly disagree with this? it seems like the most obvious fact to me...

cmo'n, the guy made me feel via his music like no other musician ever did. for me he's not less than a genius, an idol, a walking god. and he also looks so damn good. i would marry him (and yea, i am a guy, i am a straight. straight and Raine). :drool: :mrgreen:

Frec-L trying to figure out if you are kidding or not..

I understand what you are saying. I admire, respect and love Raine.. I do not think he is a god though.. Just a beautful spirit.

I do understand that a person can influence you. Have a impact on your live.. But to idolize someone like that is scary to me..

sorry...

Besides Bono, Ozzy and Eric Clapton are god.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

well to alot of people anyway.. :nod:

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

I'm not joking at all. music has a very strong, maybe the strongest exterior influence on me. it's only anticipated that my favourite artist will be someone i really appreciate. in my terms, i don't just appreciate, i mean, i worship this guy... it's not like i scream of joy every time i hear his name or live in a room which is actually a temple full of Raine's posters (though I wouldn't mind having this one :mrgreen: ), I just admire everything this man does as an artist. and as a humanbeing because I'm exaggerating. :P
and besides it borders with humor so....

not so difficult to understand, most of us feel this way for people sometimes... like u exposed urself at the end of ur msg :mrgreen:

No I put that at the end of my mesasge cause you always see people sayign OZZY is GOD, Bono is GOD or Clapton is GOD. there is this joke where this guy dies and goes to Rock and Roll heavne. he is walkig around and seees Lennon, Hendrix, joplin, morriosons and such. He gets to this room and sees this man wearing Sunglasses> he asks the guy who is that. the guy says Oh that is god he likes to pretend he is BONO. It is also said he thinks he is clapton or Ozzy so that is why I wrote that.


admiring someone is one thingWorshipping someone like they are a god is something else .Ask anyone on her?e I am one of Raine's biggest supporters. I just don't think he is godlike. I don;t even think Bono is god. We all know it really EDGE anyway. LOL> Inside joke ....

as long as you are exaggerating. I guess cause sometimes people become too obessed with an artist then obsession can turn to stalking. Not that is what you are. I just heard so many bad stories about people who worship a celeb..

Nothing wrong with admiring people.. I admire alot of musicans..Mostly songwriters cause I use to write alot ..

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

Aww, hehe.

12 days? I didn't even realize it's getting that close. Hopefully my ticket for Seattle gets here soon. I can't stand having stuff up in the air, once it gets to less than 10 days until the show I'm going to be freaked out worried about the ticket arriving.

But yeah, I'm excited! And really pleased to be seeing the different songs turning up in their shows lately.
