		<description><![CDATA[Sarah and I went to the Arcade Fire concert at Red Rocks Amphitheater a few weeks ago. It was great!
The concert was at Red Rocks, a natural amphitheater which was carved into the rock at least 50-60 years ago.

Here&#8217;s a sample lyric:

Jericho, Jericho;
Joshua fit the battle of Jericho,
And the walls came tumbling down.

The concert hall wasn&#8217;t full, but there were still about 800 or so seats filled.  The orchestra was assembled and emanating that wondrously cacophonic trill of tuning instruments.

We just got back from our first orchestral practice.  What an amazing experience! It&#8217;s hard to put into words, so lush is the sound, so moving.  It&#8217;s incredible to be finally making music.

		<description><![CDATA[This is the Lenten season.

Sarah &#38; I are now attending a Presbyterian church.  The Presbyters are a confessional denomination.  Corporately, we recite prayers of confession during our church services.  I appreciate this intentionality.
We&#8217;re currently examining the seven deadly sins, concluding yesterday with wrath.  Sunday&#8217;s unison prayer of confession ended this way:

And not just any choir.  The First Presbyterian Church choir, otherwise known as, &#8220;Big Blue&#8221;.
My wife, the musical half of this family, really wanted to sing in a church choir. She also wanted her spouse to sing with her. That&#8217;s where I come in.

My only knowledge of the phrase was tha creepy old 1960&#8217;s Donovan song.
As it turns out, a hurdy gurdy is an 18th century string instrument, sort of an odd cross between an organ grinder [...]<script type="text/javascript">SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "hurdy gurdy", url: "http://www.electrolund.com/2006/01/hurdy-gurdy" });</script>]]></description>
