My Favorite Music

At heart, I'm a 70's rock & roll guy. I love groups that don't try to get too artsy or popular, but are just good rock bands. Like Gin Blossoms, Bottle Rockets, and Fastball. Hootie & the Blowfish would fit there, but they've only done one good album (their first). And then there's Bruce. 

You may be surprised at some of the groups I enjoy. I can appreciate their music without endorsing their lifestyle or general morality. Like Guns 'N Roses. I only like about six of their songs, but they are great ones, like "November Rain" and "Patience." Kid Rock does very creative stuff. For easy listening, and good piano, I'm a longtime fan of Phil Coulter.

About Me

Steve DennieCareer-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
My posts stray into sports, politics, movies, and other nonsense. But the continuing thread is serving God faithfully through the local church.
I've been blogging since 2004, and it's been fun. Please understand that, though I work for the United Brethren in Christ denomination, the nonsense I spew out here comes from my own semi-functional brain in a totally personal, non-official capacity. Yes, that's a disclaimer.

To leave comments, I suggest using OpenID. You can use it not only here, but on tens of thousands of other sites.
With OpenID, you need to remember just one username. Sweet. It's free and simple.
You can get an OpenID identity from many places, but I recommend these three: MyID.net, Signon.com, and MyOpenID.com.
But you may already have an OpenID and not know it. Let me tell you about it.
