Posted in music, recommendations, theology by samhaist on August 28, 2008

The Resurgence just redesigned their site.  It’s pretty sweet, so if I were you I’d check it out here.

Also, Lucinda Williams has a new album coming in October.

Video Introducing the ESV Study Bible

Posted in recommendations, theology by samhaist on August 26, 2008

It kind of reminds me of those videos on the Apple site, but still, this thing is going to rock.  As Scott Thomas from Acts 29 said, “It’s like the iPhone of Bibles”.

HT: Between Two Worlds

Me at The Palace.  In Detroit.  Hopefully.

Why I would rather listen to [TV] commercials than the radio…

Posted in music by samhaist on August 19, 2008

Why is it that TV commercials seem to have better music than the radio?  I don’t watch TV very often, but I’ve been hearing a lot of great stuff – Wilco, Nick Drake, Iron & Wine, Brandi Carlile

Right now, GM has a great commercial that’s on during the Olympics that features “The Story” by Brandi Carlile.  The song makes the commercial.

Then again, Budweiser has one of the lamest commercials with one of the lamest songs I’ve ever heard, so I guess commercials don’t always trump the radio.

Bigfoot has been found.

This is some very exciting news.  Bigfoot was found by the men on the right.  The search is finally over.
