The adventure that is Love In Stereo takes yet another exciting step forward:
Today you can read our first interview. It’s with the band Sherwood and they are an awesome group of guys. When we set out a few months ago to get serious about building a blog we would want to read, we attempted to contact tons of our favorite bands. The guys from Sherwood were the first to write back, the first to encourage us and the first to give us hope that maybe we weren’t complete morons for getting this going.
I’m thankful for this band and am completely blown away by how all this is playing out. Thanks to large number of you who’ve bought shirts, sent words of encouragement, linked to our site, told a friend or helped out in any way.
You can read the brief but fun interview at http://www.loveinstereo.com/blog.

Kristi and I teamed up to create shirts to raise money to send to Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The money will go to feeding Haitian children at the Son Light Nutrition Center. Roberta Edwards typically feeds over 150 people a day (now countless others) and through the years has done some amazing work in Haiti. Don’t believe me because I normally post dumb pictures of cats and robots? Here’s what other people are saying about her: Tristan and Justin.
Help feed kids and get a shirt? Me likey.

Retrowhale is the name of the artist who created these little masterpieces. In addition to being a tribute to a film I love, I really like the illustrator’s style.

Illustrator/Designer Wayne Brezinka created this cool collage. He writes:
I’ve been a fan of Conan’s from the beginning. I find himpeculiar, odd, quick-witted and just down right hilarious! In the midst of one of the most tragic weeks in the world - with the earthquake in Haiti, wars raging, and the unemployment rate at an all time high … I was watching every last minute of his show just to laugh and escape. I was inspired to create a collage portrait of him using cut paper, glue, paint and lot’s of cardboard! I thought it fitting to put the word “Exit” on his forehead at the last minute. His time with NBC is over - just like that. So long Coco! I know we’ve not seen the last of you!!

We used to do this growing up in our high school Bible class except we’d ask for prayer requests for characters from Dawson’s Creek. (‘Please pray for my friend Pacey’ or “Joey is having a hard time at home right now.”) This brought back fond and embarrassing memories.

“The greatest expression of rebellion is joy.”
Okay, so I’m undoubtably going to now be labeled a Joss Whedon fanboy, but I’ve been called worse. This is a nice little speech of Joss and crew accepting an absurdly specific Emmy for Dr. Horrible’s Sing-A-Long Blog. My reason for sharing is two-fold -1. If you are one of those Johnny Come Latelies who has yet to see Dr. Horrible: do it. 2. That quote is great.
P.S. Buffy vampires are the real kind of vampires. They no sparkle.

A look at unrealized projects. Gives me hope.
I reblogged this from wolfandfox:

An Incredible Story From My Friend's Trip To Haiti
My pal justingerhardt can put things into words in a way I cannot. On his blog today he shared this story of Josh Wyatt’s trip to Port-au-Prince. We’re setting up a website to share more stories like this (www.myheartisinhaiti.com) and we hope to have something up next week. If you’d like to help Roberta and the kids there drop me a message: brad@bradmontague.com.
Here is the post from justingerhardt:
Shared this story in church last night. So awesome.
As soon as he heard about the earthquake in Haiti, my friend Josh got on a plane to the Dominican Republic and found a spot on a truck headed across the border to Port-Au-Prince.
He was trying to get to a small orphanage run by a Christian friend of his named Roberta. Josh has an adopted daughter from Haiti and he’s spent a lot of time helping with Roberta and her kids.
When the earthquake happened, a wall surrounding the orphans’ house collapsed, killing one of the children. Roberta was out of the country and couldn’t get back right away, so the other kids buried their friend in the back yard.
Thankfully, Josh managed to get there a couple of days after the quake to help until Roberta returned. He calmed the kids down, put up some razor wire to secure the property’s perimeter, and took stock of what provisions they had on hand.
Josh said the moment Roberta got back, she walked in, checked on the kids, and asked “How much food do we have?”
“Between us, the kids, and the now-homeless church members sleeping on the property, about a month’s worth,” Josh told her.
“Alright,” she said, “put aside food for two days, and let’s start giving the rest away to the neighbors.”
Now, if that’s not taking Jesus’ words in Luke 6:38 seriously, I don’t know what is:
“Give and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”But here’s the kicker: the next day, Roberta got a call from a friend in the Dominican Republic. “We’ve found a way to get to you with supplies. I’ll be there tomorrow with 4,000 pounds of food and provisions.”
Wow.

The little hitmakers are back.
Here they return with a song that again mixes Robbie’ gibberish with Lexi’s clapping and dancing. Like most things that come out of Robbie’s mouth, we’re not quite sure where this came from but it is pretty catchy.
You might also like to know that at the end of the song (when he really breaks it down) he’s doing some pretty intense dancing. Enjoy.
