Dancing in the Minefields
My favorite singer ever to roam the planet has a new album and his first official music video to go with it. It is very nice. The only less than positive thing I can say about it is that some of the scenes with the older couples remind me of something out of a Cialis commercial. Lets move on.
There are a few moments in this video where the musicians are just sort of randomly chilling together (40 to 48 seconds for example). I might be crazy, but it reminds of a few other videos where the participants appear at random times in random places (see below). I might be the only person in the world who sees a connection here.

His major contribution to the world was not a set of aphorisms. He was born in a turdy barn, grew up in a dirty world, got baptized in a muddy river. He put his hands on the oozing wounds of lepers, he let whores brush his hair and soldiers pull it out. He went to dinner with dirtbags, both religious and irreligious. His closest friends were a collection of crude fishermen and cultural traitors. He felt the spittle of the Pharisees on his face and the metal hooks of the jailer’s whip in the flesh of his back. He got sweaty and dirty and bloody – and he took all of the sin and mess of the world onto himself, onto the cross to which he was nailed naked.
Have I told you about our recent rediscovery of Andrew Peterson? We’d had his first album for ages – since WOLBI (don’t ask) – and enjoyed it, but lately we’ve been playing his new stuff and loving it. I’m mostly just glad because it helped Ryan get over his Straight No Chaser kick.
I have not heard of them (SNC). Also, I did not know about this recent rediscovery! I have recently rediscovered Twizzlers, thanks to the office vending machine. My favorite AP albums are still probably Love & Thunder and The Far Country. Check those out if you have the chance and haven’t already!
