Holy music...
I am really looking forward to this evening - partly as I鈥檓 off to see Willie Nelson straight after the show. The great thing about working at the new 成人快手 headquarters on the Clyde is that it鈥檚 just a stroll across the bridge to The SECC or The Armadillo.
It will be a tight squeeze and I鈥檓 hoping that Willie doesn鈥檛 come on before eight o鈥 clock or I鈥檓 stuffed. I have asked a pal to line up a cold glass of wine for eight and by the time the eight o clock news is finished I hope to have consumed half of it and be on way to our seats.
The highlight of my evening should be tonight鈥檚 show. Julie in Edinburgh came up with this one and it鈥檚 鈥渢hings you might find in the bible鈥. Already we have had a huge inbox of suggestions. You can read some of them on the 鈥榯hemes鈥 post on the blog. As Michelle in Bishopton pointed out elsewhere on the blog, 鈥 This is a theme of truly biblical proportions鈥︹

Trying to get this written during the news in what is turning out to be ourt busiest show yet. So many clever suggestions tonight...I will do the best of them onthe blog over the weekend. I was thrilled to get some good ones from a real life minister, so as promised here's what could turn out to be a craqcking sermon from the Rockin' Rev...
Oh Bryan, Big mistake selecting a biblical theme with the Rockingrev and wife of RockingRev, RockingDoc on the case!
First of all for home tonight how about Sweet home Alabama, by Lynyrd Skynyrd and then Our house by Madness.
But now the big list!!!!
A contrast between the wide path and the narrow way to begin with so "Highway to Hell" and "Stairway to Heaven". Then let's start at the beginning, anything by Genesis would of course be appropriate and if you were really daring and had a three hour show you could play all 23 minutes of "Supper's Ready" - all taken from the book of Revelation. In Genesis you find "Joseph and his Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat". You also have the fall of the devil - he went down to Georgia!
The Call sang about "The Walls Came Down" from Joshua and from an album, "Modern Romans" for a little New testament.
Tom Jones sang about "Delilah" from the book of Judges
You then have "40" from psalm 40 by U2, they also did "Grace" a major biblical theme and "Salome" who asked for the head of John the Baptist. Talking of Johns, how about "Jilted John", ok not very biblical but so much fun.
Back to the Old Testament, they did lose the ark of the covenant and Indiana Jones tried to find it so you could include the theme from the "raiders of he Lost Ark." And then Jeremiah may have been a prophet but the song says "Jeremiah was a Bullfrog"according to Three Dog Night!
Once you move to the New Testament you can have the Three Wee Kings who visited "Lady Madonna "and Jesus Christ Superstar!
Penultimately Jesus own brother Jude wrote a small letter so how about "Hey Jude". And finally you have to feel sorry for Jamie and Thomas "sons of a preacher man"!!!
