So, let me take a moment and share a friend’s blog with you and if you hang with me I’ll tie it all back into what I’m doing here. You’ll like it too, especially if you are a fan of modern music.
Hunter Dryden has started the task to determine the greatest modern musician on his blog here. His first and second posts describe the blog’s basis and how the rating system works and the rest is a fun read. I trust Hunter’s opinion on most things because he’s one of the smartest people I know (despite going to A&M) and I especially respect his opinion on music matters because he is a great musician himself.
In fact, Hunter is in the band called Paul Banks and The Carousels and Hunter wrote a very insightful article posted on the bands website here.
Besides me having a “man-crush” on Hunter, this all ties back into Makarios because Paul Banks and The Carousels played at the MakArt fund raiser for Makarios yesterday as noted on the Makarios blog. (Sorry, I wanted to post this blog before the show, but we still don’t have internet at our place.)So there it is, a free plug for my friend and his band.

Ps, I realize that’s a lot different blogs I linked to, so if you are like me and have many blogs to keep up with, you may want to try Google’s Reader. It saves me time for the small amount of time we do have internet. (Google owes me a kick back for that,)
Thanks for sharing Hunter’s blogs. I really enjoyed the insight into all the time, effort and people that are invested in such a wonderful misician. Every once in a while at church we get to experience a bigger part of the who musician. What a guy!
