Six Stringed Sepultura
Tuesday, June 1, 2010 at 8:04PM In 1933, there were no Christian rock bands to bring music to the faithful masses. There was just Sister Bostick and her trusty guitar, Genny. Together with Sister Renaldo on spoons, this dynamic duo for Christ would tour the country's convents to shine a little light inside. Tragically, Sister Bostick found she could no longer sing after Genny was burned as a witch on November 12, 1937.
The day the music died.

Another RMW stache. Love the blurb!!!
Two things:
1) Who would have thought that you would be the one that is most likely to use images of nuns on the site?
2) Sepultura means "open grave" - and, as a side note, ruled - and then burnt out in the weight of their own intensity.
Nice Stache, yo. Crisp and groovy. Her reaction to being made famous via The Q?
@ pitcherday - you entered my mind several times when thinking up that blurb. I tried and failed to get "mormon" in there, but there's always next time!
@ Cannibal - Nuns? Who knew? Right? Sadly I had to look up Sepultura before using it in the title. Glad it fit. I remember the band having awesome album covers, too. As for Sarah, I mentioned on her FB album that I could use this photo in a 'stache and she cheered me on. I posted a site link on her wall and her reaction was "ahhhhhh haaaaaa haaaaa!!!!!!" (that's good, right?)
That is either a very good reaction, or she was on fire - and, for some reason, typing out the sounds of agony, rather than just saying / speaking them. Maybe she was using some sort of open source dictation program, and it captured the sounds of her body being ravages by the unrelenting power and fury of open, unchecked flame...
But then she would have had to hit, "Post Reply." so that doesn't really make sense... Nah, my guess is that the fire thing is a long shot.
Hey, does anybody else smell smoke?
We already have one stache that is going to turn the Jehovah's Witnesses away... Now the Mormons?
You'd better think twice. The state with the highest numbers of hits on porn sites is Utah.
We know you NEED that demographic.
Sister Sarah loves it... but is sad about Genny being burned :(
Well, thank goodness.
I was afraid that some horrible fire conflagration episode had been caught and transposed.
Praise god.
