07.07.08Delirious? is leaving the building…Delirious? announced on their website (and via press release) yesterday that they are calling it quits. They have some fantastic reasons for doing so—ministry opportunities, family priorities—but it's still a sad thing to see them go. They'll be touring on a limited basis apparently until the end of 2009, so I guess I need to actually go see them in concert somewhere, somehow before it's all over. They're one of the few of my favorites I've not ever seen live. It's nearly like losing an old friend when one of these great bands retire. That may sound silly, but it's the way ...

05.28.08last.fm Top 25Alright, I did something like this the other day when Bobby posted up his iTunes top 25, and so I thought I would do it for my last.fm top 25. Keep in mind when viewing this, these are the total plays for two separate iMacs (office and home), three separate iPods, and the MacBook we use on Sunday mornings for our pre-service mix. Still really scary though. I think I might be obsessed. What's your last.fm top 25 look like? Not a member of last.fm? Join.

04.07.08Worship Confessional: April 6, 2008Yesterday was "minor technical glitch day." Nothing major was a distraction or anything, and very few people probably noticed. Thankfully, none of this stuff seemed to phase any of us on stage. Our flow was good, and all the pieces really fit together much better than even planned. I so love it when God takes what we've planned and makes it into something way better than we could have EVER done on our own. We were studying the spiritual discipline of solitude—which I'll blog about tomorrow—so all of our music today had something to do with solitude, stillness, quietness, listening, etc. ...

03.31.08Worship Confessional: March 30, 2008Well, after last week's near-death feeling while conducting the choir, I felt bright and springy yesterday. Attendance was a little low, but we had many of our visitors from Easter and the previous weeks return for another look. It looks like there's another influx as usually happens in the Spring. Some of the visitors I saw were definitely unashamed worshipers, and that made me put all that much more heart into the leading. We're firing our iLife series back up after Holy Week, and we studied the spiritual discipline of Simplicity, and so I put a little different spin ...

02.04.08Worship Confessional: February 3, 2008Well, I made my public debut yesterday on the mandolin. It was an interesting experience. Do you ever have one of those days where everything is going fine, just the way you planned, but you still feel off? Yesterday was one of those days. During sound check, things were going just fine, but we discussed it at the end and came to the conclusion that we just were not gelling as a band. We sounded great as individual players, but something was keeping us from sounding like one instrument rather than a collection of instruments. We started playing 10 minutes early as ...
