Something Different
Coming from Nashville, the contemporary Christian band “Sidewalk Prophets” is heading to the Honeywell Center on their “Something Different Tour in 3D.” The concert will take place in the Ford Theater at 7:30 p.m. Sunday, May 20. Associate Sponsorship for this performance is provided by Wabash Friends Counseling Center. Tickets are $45, $25 and $15.
The “Sidewalk Prophets” album “These Simple Truths” contained the single “The Words I Would Say,” which was featured on “WOW Hits” in 2010 and 2011. The group also won the GMA Dove Award for New Artist of the Year in 2010.
“The Something Different Tour” will transform the Honeywell Center lobby to look, sound and feel like a retro arcade that requires no quarters. Cinematic 3D visuals will also be featured in the lobby as well as during the concert. Audience members who purchase $45 and $25 tickets will be given 3D glasses to view and enjoy the full experience. (3D glasses will also be sold at the merchandise table.) Many more surprises will be on hand, making for an extremely “different” concert like no other.
“Sidewalk Prophets” proudly embraces the contemporary Christian pop/rock genre. Their creative songwriting remains rooted in deep faith-based lyrics, integrating worship with real life. The Honeywell Center lobby will be part of the experience and feature arcade games, merchandise and World Vision tables. “Sidewalk Prophets” got their start at Indiana’s Anderson University. Support of this program is provided in part by the Halderman Hipsher Christian Program Endowment.
