Uglyband: Running out of Adrenaline


Christian rockers Audio Adrenaline are legends in Christian rock-- 15 years of touring with two Grammy Awards, more than 3 million records sold and 18 No.1 radio hits.

But the band is calling it quits in April. That's too bad, because, in the realm of style and fashion, their clean, non-nonsense custuming and understated showmanship could help shape the image of Christian showbusiness for years to come.

Watch the slideshow of the fall leg of their farewell tour provided by The Dallas Morning News. Do you notice anything? A theme?

Hint: In most of the photos the band is wearing simple, white T-shirts. The kind people wore in the 1950s. The kind I wore as a kid. The kind Christian bands of the future should all be wearing.

It says: no distractions. It says "we know who we are."

But to some people it also might convey "we're older than dirt."

So, I don't know. Maybe it is time for this band to fold up and make room for fresh talent.

But the elegant, simple white "T" will never go out of style.
