Baptism of Fire

Wild-boy-turned-good-boy,  Brian “Head” Welch, who you read about on this blog two weeks ago, has made his commitment to religion official.

Ex-metal guitarist Brian “Head” Welch was baptized Saturday in the Jordan River, just weeks after quitting his band, drug habits and rock-and-roll lifestyle for religion.

 

Welch, a founding member of the multi-platinum metal band Korn, joined some 20 other white-robed Christian pilgrims from a Bakersfield, California, church who were immersed by their pastor, Ron Vietti, in the cool, gray waters near the shore.

Congratulations, Brian.

 

I have to admit, however, that the sight of 20 white-robed Christians could make people uncomfortable. I think brown would go down better with people.
