No handlebars

"I can ride a bike no handlebars.. no handlebars.."

I met two a new bands this weekend; bands I really liked. The suggestion came from the back seat on the way home from a youth retreat, where two Sophomores were splitting an ipod. "Hey Pastor, I think you'll really like this one. Why don't you tune the stereo to our ipodradiostation?" I complied with the request and they were instantly surprised by the bose subwoofer behind them. "Woah.. cool!"

"I can ride a bike no handlebars.. no handlebars."

The band is Flobot, they sing rap and hip/hop. I usually hate rap and hip/hop! But this band uses violins & trumpets & accordions & ska. And, well . . they hand it over!

"No handlebars" is all ethics. What if you take arrogant male juvenile stupidity all the way to the White House and put it in charge? What if?

If?

"Flobot" - and my other new favorite band, "Cage the Elephant."

Leave it to the latest pagan bands to ask the really tough Christian questions.

Go boys!
