The Year Has Begun!

Hello AgapeFest fans! My name is Jarrod Beasley and I am the Director of Public Relations this year for AgapeFest and I will be taking care of a lot of the web updates for the website, facebook and twitter. I am here to inform all of you that we are kicking things off with meetings this week! We have our first cabinet meeting and booking meeting this Tuesday! Since we are finally getting ready to start talking about booking bands, now is the time to send us who you would like to see this year at the festival! You can either tell us via facebook, twitter, or email! We can’t book every band but we try to fit in as many awesome bands that we can with our budget. We appreciate your support and your requests for bands! God Bless each and everyone of you!

  1. I think it would be really cool to see Chris Tomlin and Down Here at Agape this year, as well as bands like Abandon Kansas which were there last year.

  2. Please book The Almost and The Rocket Summer!!!!

  3. I think it would be awesome if you could get Flyleaf or Underoath :)

  4. Please book Remedy Drive!!!

  5. you need to get hawk nelson or skillet!

  6. The Classic Crime, Tenth Ave North, and Leeland are all excellent.

  7. With the early 80′s lineup of Petra re banding and preparing to tour, that would be a good show for some of us older attendees.

  8. Do you know when you will be able to release possible bands or confirmed bands for agape 2011?

  9. you need to get lecrae because he will have 2 new albums released by the time agape comes around MUST HAVE

  10. hey i think u guys should make friday a hard rock/metal night that would be awesome! my band suggestions would be oh sleeper,as i lay dying,for today,underoath,the devil wears prada,and blessed by a broken heart would be cool!

  11. Please book Lecrae for this year. Adam has GREAT points!

    Also, a hiphop band like TradeMARK Live who performed with THI’SL last year would add a different musical aspect to the festival. Please book them as well!!

  12. I would love to see Tyree Morris and Hearts of Worship this year. They’re an urban contemporary group that I saw in Denver!

  13. I would like to see some older christian bands that have not been out recently, like I heard that SonicFlood is gonna be touring again soon.

  14. Would be great to have some Norwegian bands: Treasure and 7 Days and a Miracle

  24. None of these bands would really fit into our lineup. This is a Christian music festival after all!

  25. Thanks a lot Greg,

    We try to bring as much as we can each year while still bringing some diversity to the lineup every year!

    Thanks for the support,
    Chris

  28. 7 Days and a Miracle
    Treaure
    Arvid Pettersen

  29. Remedy Drive, Lightswitch, Hawk Nelson

  30. Red is a MUST! for the 2011 fest.

  31. RAVENHILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think the exclamation points say it all.

  32. RavenHill :) If you haven’t seen or heard this band yet, 1.) You may be under a rock
    2.) Youtube them :D

    they are a PERFECT fit for agape… theyre a band with a true heart for God, and also the ability to rock your socks off :) .. theyd be a perfect fit for the ministry you guys provide every year with Agapefest

  33. RavenHill! These guys put on one of the BEST live show of ANY band in the tri-state area.. they also have a HUGE following around here, and would definitely bring the masses to Agape.

  34. you should definitely book Ravenhill for this year’s lineup.

  35. You need more diverse bands and newere bands, not the same bands like skillet and family force 5. You need bands like So Long Forgotten, Bradley Hathaway, Edison Glass, The rocketboys, La Dispute, Mewithoutyou, All the Day Holiday, Dignan, My Epic to name a few.

  36. An Epic, No Less!!!! Great new band played on WBVN!!!!

  37. I recently went to a show in southern illinois and saw RAVENHILL & AN EPIC NO LESS. They would be a great addition to the fest.

  38. I think the band Team UP!! would really enjoy playing!!!

  39. Please get Ravenhill on the list!! They will be a surprising fan favorite guaranteed!

  40. It would be awesome if Ravenhill played!

  41. Yeah Ravenhill would be awesome!!!!
