Changes.

-
     First off, I would like to thank everyone for supporting this blog and reading the posts over the years. It has been an absolute pleasure to give you guys this content and to keep you all updated on the Christian music scene.     However , I started this blog when I was in high school and at a different point in my life. I no longer adhere to the Christian faith nor do I really listen to Christian music anymore. I still love and enjoy these bands, but simply am no longer informed in their activities. Due to this, I feel I am no longer qualified to run a blog about Christian music. Instead of giving up this blog, though, I plan to change the scope of it. From now on, this blog will talk about music and bands in general. It will just be a music review/news site. I will focus more on rock/punk bands because they are my favorite, which was the case even when this was a solely Christian music site. I will leave up all the old posts so they will still be available for viewing. Thank y

Kirsten May Leaves Flyleaf!

-
    (I feel like the older I get, the more posts I have do like this one.)    Kristen May has left Flyleaf. She was the replacement lead vocalist for Lacey Sturm, n é e Mosely. Now, Flyleaf finds themselves in the same predicament that they experienced back in 2012. Kristen May decided to make the change in order to spend more time with her son. This is, of course, completely understandable and a well thought out reason on her part. The only question that remains, though, is will Flyleaf replace May or will they call it quits? I'll keep you all posted.   Below is May's video on why she left Flyleaf.

   Christina Grimmie was a talented, hardworking singer. At the young age of 22, she had achieved great things. In 2014, Grimmie had received third place on the singing competition The Voice. Her YouTube channel had over 3 million subscribers. Christina Grimmie was on her way to great thigns. This all changed too fast, though. She was shot at a meet and greet in Orlando, Florida this past Friday, June 10. She later died in the hospital. The killer was 27 year old Kevin James Loibl. Loibl shot and killed himself just after shooting Grimmie. At this point, his motives are unclear.    Many musicians and celebrities have shared their condolences concerning Christina Grimmie's passing. Meghan Trainor, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, Shane Dawson, and many more have poured their hearts out for the singer. Christina Grimmie, 1994-2016. We miss you!

My Stolen Photo

Hello, All, This is a bit of a rant post. I wanted to put this off for a while, but I feel that I can no longer hide this issue in the back of my mind. About a week ago, the Newsboys official Twitter account posted an image of lead guitarist Jody Davis playing guitar onstage. On the image, it said "Terry Naughton, All Rights Reserved." The image also had the caption "Newsboys: New Single 'Guilty.'" When I saw the image, I was amused because it looked very similar to a photograph that I had taken at Winter Jam a few years ago. I pulled up my image on my Flickr page to show my younger sister the similarities between the images. Well, it was I who was in for a 'treat.' They were the SAME image. I noticed that in the image that the Newsboys posted had some slight differences than my photo, but that these slight differences were the product of some bad photoshop. My photo had been taken by this Terry Naughton and passed off as his. I have contacted t
