I was standing in the music store listening to a couple discussing an upcoming concert by the Eagles. They weren't sure how much the good seats would sell for but had already heard the lowest priced tickets would start at $150. While they talked, I looked on the wall at old concert ads dating back several decades and there was one from the 1970s when the Eagles were at their peak. Incredibly, the prices were also listed... $4, $5, and $6!!! Yep, you heard me right.
Sometimes we tend to forget just how out of control inflation has been, especially in certain areas and venues. It's a wonder that anyone attends concerts anymore.
About the Composer
- tAaOS
- In those wee hours of the morning; in those quiet, private times spent with the Lord; in those times of prayer and faithfully studying His word; that was when the Alpha & Omega Suite came to it's composer. This didn't happen instantaneously, but slowly and consistently over the course of nine years, beginning in 2000 and going through 2008. Accuracy to God's Word was more important than finishing the Suite quickly, which is a process that flies in contrast with the way things are normally done in our throw-away, media-centered culture. But, when dealing with the concept of God, it's important that our proclamation is based upon what He has revealed of Himself and not on the imaginations of fallen humanity.
