Dallas Morning News: David Crowder Band goes from pews to blues

My old hometown paper has a solid piece on David Crowder and his merry pranksters.  They will be in town tomorrow evening.

The sad part - I am looking for people to go see this group -- the very one that the MSN network said "single-handedly redefined what        contemporary Christian music should sound like"-- tomorrow night.

I gotta find a shrink, a spiritual director and a parasitologist in this town.  Until that happens, or the rapture erupts, this will have to do:
