Confessions of a Pastor

I have a confession to make...

It's 11:55 pm, and I just spent about 15 minutes playing with a website. Not just any website though. This is perhaps the coolest website ever created.

Follow these Directions:

1.) Click here

2.) Customize your ride

3.) Invite some friends

4.) Waste as much time as you can possibly afford to

5.) Follow some of the links to check out one of the coolest churches in America, and/or purchase me a registration to the Drive 08 conference :)

6.) Rinse / Repeat!

Mute Math.... Just watch (twice)

Okay, I'm going to try to explain this. The first video I am going to show you is of an amazing band named Mute Math performing a song on the Jimmy Kimmel Show. The only catch is that they didn't play the song live, they played a track, and all they did was "act out" their motions, instruments, and vocals. In itself, that sounds a lot like lip-synching... except when you realize they did it all backwards... IN ONE TAKE!

So, that is the first video... it is essentially "live", in the sense that it's what the audience, and people at the Jimmy Kimmel Show witnessed.

The second video is what aired on TV. Everything is perfect, the guitar riffs, the drum beats, the vocals, everything looks as though they are playing it forward. They are not...

This band is amazing, and I think I just officially decided that I will be going to see them October 14th at Bogart's. You should probably go too....
