I know them. I co-produced them in concert in here, drove them around, etc. Great guys. That was when Karl Messner was lead guitar. The group has actually changed key members numerous times over the years and keep plugging away. They are, BTW, exactly what they profess. Good guys, and they treated the most seemingly insignificant person backstage the same as the "important" people.

I don't really know them. I interviewed them once several years ago. I understand and appreciate what they do but I know they don't seem to be taken seriously by musical purists/snobs because they are a parody band. They seem to be purposefully ministry minded which is always a plus in my book.

Ministry

They stayed until the last audience member wishing to speak to them left the building, and they prayed with people, etc.

That's cool. I love to hear those reports. When I sang at Christ Church with my college choir many moons ago, they gave an altar call and one girl went up to pray. Even though she was sitting in the back, Vestal Goodman got up and walked all the way down there, knelt down and was the only person joining the girl in the altar. I've always thought that was really cool.

Devil Went Down To Jordan, that's just funny and good and everything else I can say positive about it. I liked that.

Not quite... Messner is 38 years old. Lives on a farm in Pennsylvania and he and Deb raise horses pretty seriously. They recorded, BTW, a lot of the stuff on their farm using Macs.

I like them!
