Upon watching a Tweet video of a guitarrist do some fun riffs
while Kenneth Copeland was doing whatever it was he does,
it
occurred to me that televangelists and metal bands are
missing
a trick.
What's needed are two concert venues, or one venue split
into
two simultaneous events that
merge.
The setup:
A death metal band of the 'shock art' variety has a concert
on
one side; meanwhile an evangelistic crusade is being held on
the other. The two acts become aware of eachother, and
much
hilarity and grifting ensues as the pastor tries to cast out or
save or heal the band and blow them away with the breath
of
god and breathmints, and the band does its best to make fun
of the pastor. A staged minor miracle takes place of some
sort.
At some point the sound system and/or lighting blink out or
glow extra bright during prayers or guitar riffs for extra
effect.
Sometimes the pastor wins, sometimes the obviously satanic
band wins, depending on the feedback from the particular
crowd.
Of course it's all one company promoting both. The bands or
pastors change each time so as not to arouse suspicion that
it's
all just a ruse. Maybe they trade sides every so often to
keep
it fresh.

Single venue, split down the middle (with a temporary wall
or whatever). And a revolving stage. |
