Introducing. . . Kara's Concert Chronicles!


According to my father, I have a problem. . . He calls me a concert-holic lol. In actuality, I think I just really enjoy the live music experience. It's one thing to have a CD and listen to your favorite songs but it's a totally different thing to hear the artist and see and feel the emotion behind the music that they're singing or playing. I LOVE that!

If anything- my parents are the ones to blame for my love of music. If you know my family, you already know that many of my relatives are musically-inclined. And my parents first met in a band when they were in high school ;-).

Anyway- lots of times, my friends and family members ask, "How do you know about all these shows/events?!" So I've decided to give y'all the inside scoop haha!

I'll let you know what venues I enjoy, tell you about artists to follow and maybe I'll even suggest some decent restaurants (in addition to good music, I love good food). . . with pics and/or video clips from (some of) the shows that I attend.
Feel free to comment below and let me know what shows you're looking forward to or artists that you love! Maybe we can trade ideas. . .

To start things off, I'm going back to September 28, 2013. As part of my Birthday Celebration, my parents, girlfriends and I went to World Cafe Live (3025 Walnut Street ~ Philadelphia, PA) to see the now-> Grammy Award-winning group. . . SNARKY PUPPY!  My dad introduced me to their music a few years ago and I have been a fan ever since.

Here's a video of them playing a remixed version of one of my favorite tracks, "Binky" as well as some other surprises. . . And I'm apologizing in advance-> I got excited so the video's kinda jumpy in the middle haha!



And here's the song that got them a Grammy. . . Something (featuring the incredible Lalah Hathaway)!

7 Revelations for 37

I really was trying to get through this birthday- well- get away with not writing anything specific, but all of a sudden, ideas started flowing. So. . . Here are 7 Revelations that I am trying to be mindful of as I go through Year 37. 1. Proverbs 4:23 is a command (not a suggestion). It reads, "Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life (AMP)." Other translations say to keep or guard  your heart. . . In other words, be selective and protect it. Watch what you allow to enter your heart. Seeds may be planted by various circumstances, people with whom you interact, etc. but you do not need to allow everything to take root. Things like bitterness, frustration, and envy will try to find a home within you.  Beware: Whatever you allow to take root in your heart will be reflected through your actions! 2. This goes right with Point #1. Be willing to have uncomfortable conversations. Clearing the air can also help to keep your heart [and spirit] c...

The Unexpected Temptation

I know. . . It's been time for me to write something new.🙈 However, coming across this video from Jackie Hill Perry to prompted me to actually get this post out. One line pierced my heart. "When you have a gift that involves words, one of the ways the enemy will tempt you is to be silent." Wow!  I hone stly think silence is one of the last things that comes to mind when people think of temptation. According to Oxford Languages, the definition of temptation is  the desire to do something, especially something wrong or unwise. I can hear someone asking, "How can silence be wrong or unwise?"  Oh. . . Hold on for just a minute and it will come together. There are times when our obedience [to speak] may be the key to someone else's blessing . Your words and actions could essentially provide healing for your brother or sister in Christ! In the book of Revelation, we read, "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.....

I Almost. . . But I Didn't!- October 11, 2011

I almost forgot what I was worth. . . almost forgot that He loved me first but He reminded me. Things almost got out of hand. I almost walked out of His Will. . . His plan for me! Yet, He loved me! So much so, that He sent messages to me. Whether it was through a still, soft voice Or a gentle nudge to make the right choice. I heard it.  I felt it. I heard Him say. . . Don't listen to the world’s sweet nothings. Everything's not gold- just because it glistens. I've created you for myself . I want to be your love, your joy. . . your help. When will you realize how much I  love you? What more do I have to do?! I've given you strength, health and life. I can take what’s wrong and make it right. Don't sell yourself short! How I feel for you is in my Word. You’re wonderful beautiful fearfully made The love I have for you will never fade. Don’t let the world distract you. Simply set your affections on the things that are true Lovel...
