Bride - More Than Human at Cornerstone 2007

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

I stood backstage and watched him prepare for the show for a good 10 minutes and then talked to him for 5-6 minutes afterwards. We're not talking washboard abs, but there's no gut either. The guy has def been taking care of himself. He holds the 2006 Kentucky state record for bench pressing 510 pounds at a weight class of only 220 pounds. His wife is quite beautiful as well. They are both in their early to mid-forties and have 3 kids.

wish I was there - thanks for posting, once of their best songs ever!

[@PHYZOE]

Great post, and I just thought I would throw my 2 cents in. Dale and Troy are both wonderful Men of God. I saw them live a few times but I vividly remember them right around the time Drop came out. Unbelievable gig!

[@hylianprincess7]

Dale and all of the band are awesome. I'm proud to know him as a personal friend, as well as a great musician. Anyone says something bad about them, That can GET MY BOOT! >:D Great people. Keep rocking. God bless you all. :)

[@dersk]

The song is More Than Human, off of the album This Is It.

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

Amen. Sorry this sat here unapproved for so long. God bless. Cindy

[@mlbolts72]

What a great band

[@joaovitorrodrigues7278]

MELHOR BANDA ATÉ HOJE

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

They are still putting out new tunes and are playing some shows later this summer.

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

No. I missed their show. I had to settle for a couple photos of their vocalist at Ilia's merch table. One of my daughters saw their show on one of the Encore stages and said I missed a super great show. I still have bruises from kicking myself. LOL

[@Rawk4Life]

It's more than that. A Universalist believes that regardless of how much sin is in the world, God will save all of mankind before the end of the world, even those who reject Him.

[@Rawk4Life]

Sadly Dale is a Universalist now. But since Bride technically never became a "secular" band and still play songs from past albums, that's probably why they were invited to play Cornerstone last year.

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

I got them in 2008!!!!!

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

It's you. See the debate above. God bless. Cindy

[@fire24jordan]

Yeah, dale did gain weight he became a powerlifter with many bench press records. And he is a Universalist christian. "God is the all mighty love".

[@chrismorals]

Briiiiiiide!!!!!!

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

YAY-YA!

2 of 2 Living with hope chemical frustration My flesh is burning with carnal limitations War within spiritual castration Armageddon goes bang goodbye the population I want, I need, Jesus didn't fail I feel, I love, come on, come on A world where no one cries A world where no one dies I'll find my way back home Acid in my eyes, gall upon my tongue Cyanide and vinegar I stole a handful from the sun Is it time? I've seen the priest Wearing black white color glow. There's nothing he can do for me

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

1 of 2 @william4art: Here are the lyrics to "Bang Goodbye" by Bride. I entered them on my phone so the punctuation may be flawed Living off the fumes of my fading reputation Looking down the road at my darling aggravation Craving a hit star struck infatuation Chained like a dog choking humiliation Got myself in another tight situation Living on an island simple imagination Breathing hard with feeble calculations My mind spreads its wings universal liberation (CONT)

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

The hair is def a shocker. He's not fat at all though. He's apparently a body builder because he's very muscular & powerfully built.

[@vittorbrunocampos]

this is Dale Thompson

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

There you have it from the man himself. And sorry, Dale, my area of fitness expertise is "baby lifting." I don't know the difference between body building and power lifting. All I know is you looked great & sounded amazing.

[@bigbadbob58]

What does the use of universalist mean in context here? That Dale has crossed over into secular music? Crossed over into blues music?

[@truthman10200]

@breakinglevee Yes. The same.

[@joshuatree28]

I took another look. I think you're right, but it does look like he has a gut, though. I still can't get past the hair.

[@CrazyPato1979]

Mas essa música é do ano passado...

[@icespicol]

yeah, dude - cite your source for your comment - Obviously never read anything from Dale?

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

@hylianprincess7 LOL, Be nice now... God bless, Cindy

[@SilasoftheLamb]

Is that a Dbl neck bass? what is it? :) Oh, Hi Troy! (if u see this) Remember me from 88? God Bless Sean

[@andrerenault]

Doubleneck bass? Cool.

[@blueskies3752]

This is my first time hearing the band bride. What is a universality christain

[@CindyOsborne-TDWP]

Short answer: Every single person goes to Heaven. Longer answer copied from Wikipedia: "Christian universalism is a school of Christian theology focused around the doctrine of universal reconciliation - the view that all human beings will ultimately be "saved" and restored to a right relationship with God."

[@armortron]

I met Dale at Cstone in 2001. Briefly anyway. Cant say much about him, but I got treated by a pastor thats in a heavy metal christian band just about the same way. It is quite upsetting, and I feel ya brother. But ya just gotta let it go. But you probably shouldn't slander him on here like that, otherwise his management agency may try to sue you. I gotta say though, that was the final straw for me as far as christianity went.

[@william4art]

I sincerely apologize for posting anything on your posting. I know what the real truth is

[@armortron]

IF what I'm hearing about bride is true then I don't know whether to thumbs up your comment or thumbs down your comment. My repley below, covers all that, but it seems as though you don't want to see everyone go to heaven when everyone should deserve to go anyway if god really existed.

[@william4art]

Dont you judge the preacher. preacher is the judge. I dont think so ... Dale loves to pass false judgement on people he knows nothing of... and yes, Im Brides biggest fan, or at least i used to be. Real christians dont place labels or judge thousands of people based on a few bad seeds theyve met..Leave the priests alone dale!

[@armortron]

I find the doctrine of Hell questionable at best anyway. I actually believe there is no hell now. Well all in all the same goes with heaven. There is no place of bliss where people will sit on a cloud playing a harp for an all powerful being for the rest of eternity however long that is. Eternity has been missed up as well, It actually was meant to be eaon, or eons. I mean really, would an all powerful being of mercy and grace send people he created to everlasting torment?

[@preludetogn1]

Why u are impersonating Dale?WHATEVER "DALE"...

[@william4art]

Tsar bomba- industrial christ - christ is priest skin for skin- bang goodbye - Ive seen the priest, he has nothing for me..hmm

What Happened ALL That Hair You Had.....That LONG Hair Now I Do Not Even Recognize You....
