Well, it’s actually not Guitar Hero, it’s “Guitar Praise: Solid Rock” (of course it is).
Among the many great Christian tunes you can rock out to is “There You Go” by a little band called Caedmon’s Call.
It can be your for $99.99. (available next month).
Of course, we all know that Caedmon’s Call is originally from Houston [even if half the band lives in Nashville these days], so perhaps it’s no surprise that a live rendition of CC performing “God of Wonders” was just used to wake up the crew on the International Space Station today.
And if you’re wondering, “Why does Geof know this?” Well, I work in manned spaceflight myself, and I happened to have NASA TV on knowing that they were doing crew wakeups. Imagine my happiness. The musical interlude was well-timed, as the music followed an orbital sunrise by about ten seconds.
Keep on rockin’, dude.
i was browsing through the Caedmon’s Flickr account and came across this picture, which made me laugh. No, not at Cliff without a hat. There is nothing wrong with Cliff’s head, and if there was, why would i laugh at that? That would be rude. And besides, Cliff is a stud. (So save the “Cliff needs to put a hat on” jokes for some other time)
What i was laughing at was Andy’s expression. He looks so unamused with David Dobson, the photographer. That Andy O is such a rock star! And while we’re here, Derek and the rest of the band don’t look very thrilled either…
What’s that? You didn’t know there was a Caedmon’s Flickr account?
Well now you do…
Dude, you’re gettin’ old! ;)
Keep poundin’ the skins.
Reader Matt St. Jacques created some Miis of Caedmon’s Call members and wanted us to share ‘em with you:
i found this photo on flickr and thought it would be fun to throw a few word bubbles up to try and guess at what was being said.
here’s the best i could come up with:
if you can think of something funny, throw it up in the comments section.

here’s something on the lighter side to brighten your day. Or perhaps darken your day. I guess it depends on how you react to awful lip sync videos made to old caedmon’s call songs.
if derek had a video in mind when he wrote this song, you know that this was EXACTLY what he was thinking.
You may remember back in March of 2002 when we reported that a typo on the cover of a Caedmon’s Call album resulted in this fiasco. Well, we’ve done some more digging and we’ve found more of the same.
While hazing is a practice that is frowned upon at most college campuses, it appears the members of Caedmon’s Call aren’t afraid to humiliate a new touring band member once in a while.
