We got to see Derek Webb, live in concert last night. It was such a great experience. Few songwriters can write songs that deal with the other 98% of Christian experience that is not the "everything is wonderful!" but the "living day to day" part of Christian life. I have Derek playing in the first 5 places on the side player now for you to enjoy. Buy his stuff, he's truly the last great Christian artist. A sample of his great confessional lyrics:
so could you love this bastard child
though i don’t trust you to provide
with one hand in a pot of gold
and with the other in your side?
i am so easily satisfied
by the call of lovers less wild
that i would take a little cash
over your very flesh and blood.

Wish I could have gone. He is a great song writer. Did you wear a McCain shirt? That would have been awesome!!
