Ok, this post verifies that I am the biggest nerd in the world. I just found out that my favorite band of my college and young adult life, Caedmon's Call, has brought back their former guitarist and songwriter, Derek Webb (pictured above on the far left) for their upcoming CD, Overdressed. Derek launched a solo career about 5 years ago and has put out some great music. Yet the band has definitly been different since he left. Andrew Osenga, another great singer-songwriter took his place after he left. He has added his own flavor and style that I think does well for the band. Yet, like all things, it isn't as good as the original.
While I don't know to what extent that he is back, I am pretty excited about the record coming up. Let's just hope that it hearkens back to the original Caedmon's sound. We shall see!
The mayor of nerdville,
Chris

I'll join you in nerdville. I hadn't heard that about Webb -- quite exciting. Caedmon's with Webb -- doesn't get much better than that.
The amazing thing is that you posted to your blog two days in a row. I am truly impressed. And before you say anything, I defend myself by saying that there are days I feel I have nothing to say. Well, that has not already been said by me or others. I am unique thus the saying, "the one and only lizzard. Thank Goodness. For the world can only handle on of me."
If you're the mayor, then I want to be your first deputy. This is also MY favorite band.
Do you remember the t-shirt at camp a few years ago that said "Welcome to Loserville: Population: You" We could get that shirt and just change the wording a bit...
