Awesome documentary about the Dallas music scene from the 50's through the 70s: When Dallas Rocked https://youtu.be/qE685huw4mU?si=Q9v_y4px5-ENY-9x

This looks to be self-produced and pretty amateur but it was so cool to me to see what a big influence Dallas and Dallas radio was to the rock scene in the past decades. From the start of KZEW (The Zoo), to Q102, to Freddy King's career and the Vaughn brothers qrowing up in Oak Cliff. So many famous bars and clubs that aren't around anymore featured. Every major label had an office in Dallas at the time. That's all gone now, and radio sucks. But it used to be cool at one time.

What do you think of Cosm? https://www.cosm.com/

I don't really like Grandscape so that's kind of a turn off. It looks cool for a sporting event but I'm sure tickets and concessions are $$$. I would go for a planetarium or nature show if it was reasonably priced.

His exit sent thousands of evangelicals into a season of struggle that has lasted months. > > Last week, a pastor who oversaw all of Gateway’s campuses departed amid an undisclosed “moral issue,” becoming the latest in a series of changes for the church: The cancellation of its annual conference. The departure of Morris’ successor. The renaming of its Houston campus and an exodus of worshippers. > > At each weekend service, worshippers continue to face reminders of the scandal, with interim or guest pastors kicking off their sermons saying “I’m sorry,” talking about grief or finding hope in difficult times. They’ve noticed people who have sat and prayed around them for years are once again not showing up for service. > > The church has seen a decrease of 17% to 19% in weekend services attendance, a church spokesperson told CNN.
