This is the 2nd time I've seen them do this. I may not go to see them again.

Basically, they respected my music as long as it was Christian. They even took our youth group to Christian music festivals many times after I got into CCM...most of the time they'd just drop us off, but I do remember sitting on the grass and eating PG&J with my mom at Sonshine before jumping into the mosh pit during the One Bad Pig set. Joe, you are totally my hero today. You have no idea how happy that 77's is making me right now.

Or none. <a href="http://jedwardkeyes.com/6/77s.zip" rel="nofollow">The 77s, <i>Collected 77s</i></a> <a href="http://jedwardkeyes.com/6/MikeKnott.zip" rel="nofollow">Michael Knott/LSU, <i>Michael Knott is Not Fucking Around</i></a> All of this stuff is way out of print so... enjoy.

I think I read somewhere that there's a new LSU album out or soon to be out. I might also be interested in seeing some 77's here, but in all honesty I haven't been interested in anything Mike Roe did since Sticks and Stones. And Altar Boys peaked at Gut Level Music. I could go on and on, but this was originally about Wire, right? I second the wait for Michael Knott. I think I read somewhere that there’s a new LSU album out or soon to be out.

Smith ptolemy, my parents would never have gotten near anything as loud as Whitecross - for them the volume was part of the evil - Christian lyrics or not.
