Hey cool
You like Christian Rock? What groups?
I"m not as up on some of the newer ones. I just went to see Jeremy Camp last week. Newsboys are an old group but one of my favorites. I just love Skillet. Relient K is good, too.

 

It might be easier to ask which ones I don't like, to be honest.

Here are the ones that I find myself listening to more often than others:

Pillar, Kutless, Skillet, Demon Hunter, Tobymac, Relient K, Supertones, Newsboys, DC Talk, TFK, Casting Crowns, POD, FM Static, Benjamin Gate, Superchic[k], and Third Day.

I used to listen to Sanctus Real a lot, but YESFM, in my opinion, over plays them, and now I'm sick of them. I'm sure that will pass in time, because they have some really good stuff.

 

Nice. I am a pretty big Santis fan aswell, YESFM only plays a few of their songs and all of them are newer. I like alittle oldschool Santis.

Yup. I know what you're talking about, LilyHobbitJedi. I grew up in Whitehouse as well and was a Marching General. Trumpet also.
Brass rule! Wusswinds drool! LOL!

Integral: Have you ever listened to Columbus's station RadioU? You might like that one better. You can play it live on your computer www.radiou.com I loved that station when I was down in Cols. Every other Christian Alt/Rock station that I've come across since is much more sedate. I'm just not much into the HipHop-y stuff.

Hello Christina, I also know what a "Marchin General" is, I was a football playin panther on those friday nights a long time ago in a galaxy far far away.

 

Do you mean Maumee?

Yes, the Maumee Panthers. Times were alot different during the original release of esb and rotj. I was in high school at that time. Never heard Flush the Panthers though.

 

That would probably be because that was around 1990
