I don't follow Christian rock (see the Hank Hill quote above) and don't care much for "orchestral" or "classical" rock either.

That said, there are a number of mediocre bands that have hipped to the notion that they can get on a touring circuit by calling themselves a Christian band. Some that have done this and found success now try to distance themselves from the label.

As I understand it, parents will give their kids (don't know how young or old) permission to attend such functions (often under the guidance of a youth group outing).

This is bringing the outside c*ckrock shows into the isolated environment. So much for "change the channel if you don't like it".

This is an act of religious intolerance by a small minded musician.

Very well put.

King Vanity and I are not into Rock music but have listened to some of the Christian Rock in the early years and we could not decipher the lyrics.

Personal preference for sure he loves the old time Gospel and I prefer mainstream RandB.
