Gerald’s post on the tragically unhip music this year and in former years at the RE Congress in L.A and I do love his term Catholish.

I actually stole that term, Catholish 🙂
Btw, the people who did the movie “Bella” are planning a movie on Blessed Miguel Pro.
How un-catholish of you to criticize. Actually it’s nice to hear someone say what many of us have been to polite (chicken?) to say about a lot of Catholic “pop”.
It’s like the junior high school music teacher wrote a rock opera for the grade eight class to perform for the parents.
You know that if she could really write music she wouldn’t be a teacher, and even if there were flashes of brilliance, it has to be softened down anyway for the parents.
So you cringe and politely say nothing.
Maybe the good news is that the Protestants have a lot of the same crappy stuff. Sometimes I think the Catholic music shows could switch playlists with the Protestant station for an hour or so before anyone would notice.
Don’t forget to Chat with the Card:
CARDINAL MAHONY ONLINE!
On Friday, March 2, 2007 @ 11:30 a.m. PST join Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony in a live chat session from the main hall at the Religious Education Congress in Anaheim, California. The Cardinal annually conducts an online session, first with school children from the archdiocese, and then in a nation-wide chat session. The Cardinal will discuss the Archdiocese, the Church�s role on the Internet, common challenges facing today’s Catholic Church, and anything else on your mind. This will be the Cardinal’s 11th annual online appearance and one of the highlights for the more than 40,000 attendees at the four-day event.
