AUGUST 1999 - Here's just the beginning of all the awesome pics we brought back from the Creation West '99 festival at the Gorge at George, Washington. We met some of the 18,000 festival-goers during our 3-days (attendance beating last year's count of 15,000!) Have some pics YOU took at the festival? Email them our way!

CAEDMON'S CALLPosing for a quick pick with Listener RACHEL (In the middle, in the shades) at their merch booth. Did you hear CLIFF (In the BEATLES shirt) sing that icky N-SYNC song during the soundcheck? I told Rebecca (her pic is below) that if you sing it to God, it could be a praise song -- "You are my fire, my one desire" (Yeah, I know it's a stretch...) |

C9909.jpg | REBECCA ST. JAMESShe's not only an incredibly talented performer, but her speaking is something you just HAVE to catch sometime! Sincere, straight from the heart -- She really relates to us "young people," and finds a way to deliver her message to us with love and encouragement, not just by "preaching" in a judgemental or threataning kind of way. |
