The 70s Come to Korea

I just stumbled across the song and music video “Gangnam Style” by South Korean rapper Psy. I enjoy watching Japanese music videos because some of them are quite... creative. And Korean stuff can come close. I watched this video several times, not only because I found the song catchy, but because I got a good laugh from both his dance moves and the suits he wore in the video.

Once suit in particular seemed very familiar. Well what do you know, that appears to be almost identical to the tuxes that my dad and his wedding party wore. Back in the mid-70s. I guess it's true what they say about fashion, how everything comes back in style eventually.

Surprise Wedding

Surprise! I got married this evening. Okay, not really. But I was involved in a wedding. Well... not so much a wedding, as a wedding rehearsal. And I really wasn't a part of the wedding. I don't even know the people who are getting married. I was just asked if I could to do sound for it. But it was a surprise. And a wedding. That much is true!

I got a phone call about 6:15 PM this evening, as there was a wedding rehearsal going on at my church that was supposed to have started at 6:00 PM and there was no sign of the person who was going to do sound, nor was anyone able to contact him (don't worry, he's okay—he just accidentally mis-scheduled things and was out elsewhere for the evening). In the frantic attempt to find someone else who could do it instead I was called. Since I wasn't doing anything important anyway, I paused the show I was watching and quickly went down to the church to help out. And since I was the one involved in the rehearsal so I know more what's going on, I'm going to be doing the actual wedding as well.
