Come ON! ...you know you LIKE it! ...and, for those of us who have been fans for a while...we're actually chuckling to ourselves right now :) ...trying to think back, picture Steven in this BRIGHT YELLOW jacket? Can we call it that? It certainly is something I never thought or expected to be taking a picture of and blogging about! Hah, but hey...why not? Here's a real look into the treasures that I come across.
So...can you remember when and where Steven would dare adorn this lovely garment? Just take a stab at it :)
(...and, yes...this has been dry cleaned and will be going up for auction sooooon!)
so how much did the yellow jacket go for> I missed the closing cause I forgot to put it on my watch list. Doh.

I LOVE the Great Adventure video. One of my very favorites. The mountains, the horses, SCC playing by the barn. Saddle up your horses!!!

Matt...will be good to see you at the concert!! We have a couple of 3rd row seats, just my hubby and I going. I'm leaving my kids with my dad, he lives just south of Sioux City. I'm anxious to see the Orpheum! Haven't been there in YEARS, my son has been to see the Sioux City Symphony there with his orchestra class, and he says it's beautiful! Yep...Iowa State Fair, August 13th...check out the state fair website. Will email you!

Queen Amie - Another yellowjacket will be in attendence at the Sioux City show, me! :)
Friendly warning. I'm going to be bidding on the front row seats\pass's for that show (time for my semi-annual donation to shohanna's hope after all :P ) but it's looking like I may be coming alone so holler at me at mattcolvin AT gmail DOT CoM if you'd be interested in one of the seats/passes.
Didn't realize SCC was going to be here in August - sweet!

Thanks for the clarification MBC! Sorry I didn't know that! You Chapmans are so clever...

Was that jacket worn in the Great Adventure Video? Thanks for posting this picture.. I am sure Steven Curtis will be happy to let you get rid of it.. :)

Yep. I know that jacket!!! As a matter of fact, I have one of the early copies of that because my former brother in law (first husband's brother... first hubby died in 1998) worked on that project in Jackson Hole with Stephen. Fun stuff!!! :)

Looks like the jacket that the ushers wear at the Vanderbilt basketball games!

I fell in love with SCC in this jacket! Still have the video!

SWECS is the name of one of Steven's Publishing companies..It stands for... Stevey, Will, Emily, Caleb, and Shaoey..... It was formed before Maria was adopted.

No question. Live Adventure! You can't call yourself a real SCC fan and not know this one. First thought popped into my head "It's got 2 b tru!"

If I tell you, can I have a couple of backstage passes to the Sioux City, IA show on April 17 and some good seats for SCC's concert at the Iowa State Fair on August 13 (which happens to be mine and my husband's anniversary)? lol!
Posted by: Queen Amie | March 12, 2009 at 10:43 AM
okay.... i know i'll probably be kicked out of the club for this, but what does SWEC stand for? my job may depend on it. :-)
Posted by: Jenny411 | March 12, 2009 at 09:36 AM
hahahha. I can't even type.....laughing too hard. I bet a mullet was involved in this jacket.....
Posted by: Tanya Robinson | March 11, 2009 at 11:40 PM
Yes - THE yellow jacket!!!! This should seriously be preserved in the Dove award archives or something... We need to get a picture of Steven at least next to it (preferably wearing it!) before it leaves his hands! This is fandom gold right here, folks! I definitely think this one should be saved for the archives and not auctioned off... But whoever gets it should preserve it - maybe come back here to reassure all of us that it is in good hands! Fun times, fond memories... I think I have to dig out that old VHS tape... : )

That did remind me of the old message boards as well. Good times!

That belongs in the Smithsonian. Classic!

Live Adventure! LOL
This is a great game you've got going, Grace...guess the SCC stuff!
Posted by: Cheryl Marshall | March 11, 2009 at 11:56 AM
Die hard fans know the Live Adventure when they see it! LOL!
Posted by: Kelly | March 11, 2009 at 10:20 AM
No way! Can't believe me eyes!
Posted by: carryu2jesus | March 11, 2009 at 09:41 AM
So glad to see you are going on with the auctions! Too fun. I have no earthly idea where this jacket is from since I am a more recent SCC follower, but yeah, I'd say he could part with it. Does Caleb or Will not want this? Caleb could wear it in his wedding. Maybe you should get it out of the house immediately, before SCC decides to wear it to the wedding himself.

Loving "SWECtacular"! We had to watch the Live Adventure last night...my kids wanted to know what all the laughing was about! This all brings back so many fun memories. Steph (Stuff) and I used to sit in my dorm room watching that video over and over and over...rewinding it to watch Got to Be Tru over and over so many times that that part of the tape wore out first!
And the Golden Ticket concert up in Minnesota? Where all of us "Yellow Jackets" had our yellow on and had hugs and a group picture? I'll never forget that. It was an amazing blur.
Fun to remember the good ole days, isn't it?
Posted by: Queen Amie | March 11, 2009 at 09:15 AM
Ahhhh the memories....
Well normally at this point you'd see me posting
I'd be doing that old board SWEC game thing
So by now your probably wondering what's going on
Cause this is really staring to look like a Tuesday's Child rap song....
Sorry for those who are scratching their heads...
That yellow jacket just brings in out in me!
LOVE IT JIM!!
