The Roma Band of Boston played at the Madonna Della Cava festival last Sunday. We talked to the band before the festivities began:
If you are looking for an Italian band for an event (And you should be) The Roma Band should be high on the list.

DaTechguy’s Field guide to (Catholic Bloggers) The American Papist
Posted: August 18, 2010 by datechguy in blogs, catholic, short films/interviews, special eventsTags: Blogroll, catholic, cnmc, CNMC conference boston, datechguy's field guide to (cpac) bloggers, short interviews, voices of the cnmc
This is the last field guide entry from CNMC and the penultimate interview from the cnmc that I will be posting. He is also the only person from CNMC that was already on my blogroll.
If Thomas Peters never wrote a word on a blog he would still be an impressive young man. I’d like to give his father a pat on the back. I pray my sons turn out half as good.

The only nun in my interviews had an interesting take on the conference:
She would have liked to have seen more facebook and twitter. Her twitter account is saintsfortoday
It’s spooky to meet nuns clearly younger than me. I’m really not used to that.
The Ewock woman of Emily’s list vs my nephew Matt

One of my many Nephews (Italian Family you know) has very little in common with me: I am bald he has a full head of hair, He is ripped I am fat, I wear a beard, he is clean shaven, he plays several instruments from violin to guitar, I don’t. He is very single and looking, I’ve been married for 22 years, I am very Catholic, he is not but we discuss and debate religion whenever we talk.
We both however have one thing in common and that’s a very different set of priorities than the Ewock Women of Emily’s list.
The Ewock women of Emily’s list publicly support abortion with every fiber of their being. They consider it such a priority that they declare the willingness to sacrifice the lives of their grandchildren as an expression of love for their daughters.
My nephew Matt has told me that it is a Sine Non Qua before even considering dating a woman that she be pro life. In Massachusetts that really narrows the field, when asked he told me bluntly. “I don’t want to end up with any woman willing to slaughter our daughter or son.”
My no drugs, no booze no sex rules not withstanding, I would never want any grandchild of mine to ever think I disappointed by their birth. I would much rather see rings on fingers first, but whenever they come, I will be pleased to see them.
It’s is love vs hate. Matt and I love our children and grandchildren that we have never seen so much that we will sacrifice to protect them. The Ewock of Emily’s list, a group that is supposed to be exist to advance women in office, hate Sarah Palin so much that they proudly declare their grandchildren expendable.
