My Review Of Cafe One80.

 I watched Cafe One80 in Prescott on YouTube. The unplugged concert put on by the over 50 saints, most of whom are no longer involved in the concert ministry. I was excited over the thought of what it could be. I was a little disappointed by what I actually watched.

First, it was not funny. I expected there to be more humor for some reason. But it was just words and drama and music. Boring!

Second, it was the same old format and the some old structure. We have been doing the same thing so long that we have no inspiration for how to do something new.

Third, the music was lame. Too many instruments. Too many amplifiers. I expected that at the least they would sing some old Jesus music from the early days. None of them were around way back then. At least it was not loud.

I was not there to gauge how the audience acted during the show. I was not there to sample the refreshments they served. I was not there to judge and test the spirit in the room. I only saw what the camera showed me.

I guess since I was not there to give input or advice I have no room to criticize. But what if someone who knew nothing about us saw what I saw? Would they be interested enough to come and see more of who we are and what we do?
