Casting Crowns

Casting Crowns released their new album on August 30th. My pal Ed brought it to my attention today, so I hopped out to iTunes and sure enough, the new release, woohoo! It's downloading as I blog, heh heh.

I'm going to go listen to it while I crank out some code.

I made some killer pan-seared spicy scallops for dinner last night -- I was flying without a net and no recipe, they turned out fabulous! The artichokes were so-so, would've been better fresh, but Albertson's apparently thinks too highly of their artichokes at THREE DOLLARS PER ARTICHOKE! The recipe I was going to use (Alton Brown from Good Eats on Food Network -- Broiled Chokes) would've cost around $28 to make just that, nevermind the scallops. No waaaaaay!

Busy weekend this time around -- playing Suede tonight and Sideline tomorrow. My dad's 59th birthday is on Saturday -- Happy Birthday Dad, I love you! :)

    I did not know about this. Good to know. Casting Crowns' last album didn't have one bad track on it; I suppose I need to check this one out.

    The iPod nano becons to me.

    Yeah their first album took up permanent residency in my 6-disc CD changer in my car -- I'm looking forward to listening to this one this weekend :)

    I want that nano too -- to quote the ever-eloquent Paris Hilton, "That's Hot!"

    What is the memory on the nano and anyone know the street price? I think I can get away with a 2 or 4 gig player really.

    The wife and I got the Nano over the weekend. It's awesome! I can't believe such good sound comes out of something so small.

    I *love* those Nano commercials too, shows how tiny they are!

    The Casting Crowns Lifesong CD wasn't as good as I was hoping for. It's still great, but definitely not the instant hit that the first one was. Sophomore albums always seem to do that I think.
