Videoblog… MJ: This is It

I’ve written in the past about how much of a fan I’ve become as of late of Michael Jackson.  Growing up I was always put off by his off the stage troubles of the past 15 years or more so I never really explored his music or the stories from the studio or stage.  Sure, as a man, he was creepy.  But as an artist, the man was a creative genius.  I believe there is lots that we can learn in the Christian creative field from his abilities as a storyteller and his drive for excellence and perfecting his craft.  It also blows me away how many of his records have stood the test of time sonically.  In fact several of his tracks have earned a place in my system tuning playlist because they just sound so pure, even with 30 year old technology.

Do yourself a favor if you have never seen it and rent/buy the documentary/concert that came out last fall called Michael Jackson: This Is It.  This film will give you an excellent glimpse into what goes into creating excellence.  I would be very surprised if you don’t thank me for it…

That’s all for this week!  Next week we’re going to start diving into PA optimization and room tuning.
