A certain someone is now back with a certain band that a certain other someone always called his favorite band

And a certain someone still isn’t quite sure what to think about it. But he thinks he likes it.

Can I break the spell of the typical?

So it recently occurred to me that I should really stop neglecting my blog. And by that, I mean that I should really stop neglecting my blog. Really.

So here goes my next attempt at starting to post again. A post about nothing. Like Seinfeld, except not as funny and not on television (and without Kramer…I try to avoid racism around here).

Life has been interesting around these parts. Since the last time I posted, my best friend got married. Oh, and also, he’s having a baby. Yeah. NUTS. I feel old….and…behind. I need to hurry up and find an attractive Jesus-loving, cello-playing girl to marry so that I won’t miss the marriage wagon. I think the wagon only waits til you’re like 25 or something. (to singles over 25: Please don’t take that statement seriously…my tongue is safely deposited in my cheek. Don’t send hate mail if you’re one of the four and a half people who may read this) At any rate, I’m going to be an uncle (unofficially). Krusty and Brittany, his wife, are having a baby boy who they will name Zane Anthony….I’m going to call him Zanthony. Go ahead and deal with it. Zanthony and his Uncle Joe are going to rule the universe.

In other, less personal news, some of my favorite artists and bands have released albums of late…and I felt it prudent for me to plug them here.

Derek Webb’s new album The Ringing Bell officially hit stores May 1. You should buy it. It’s great. More rock than any of his previous solo efforts (and at times, reminiscent of his stuff from Caedmon’s Long Line of Leavers record), the album has a very Beatles-y feel to it. Clocking at just over 30 minutes, it’s quite short, almost a snack, though very deep for it’s length. I’ll try to post a full review soon, as well as a review for the new Wilco album, Sky Blue Sky that I just purchased today…but you should go ahead and buy that too, because Wilco is amazing.

David Crowder’s new album releases in the fall, as well as the new Caedmon’s (and from what I hear, there’s BIG NEWS attached to that one)….so…yay for new music this year!
