Do you think that running a blog of your favorite band is worshiping idols?

 

The sin of idolotry refers to, I think, modern day focus, what's important to us, etc. Anything can become idolotry if it becomes too important--particularly to the point of taking us away from things that are more important.

 

It strikes me that running a blog on a band runs the risk of doing just this. But it isn't, point-blank, a black-and-white, yes-or-no sort of thing.

 

I would carefully consider priorities and motivations in making such a decision.

I am along the same lines of thinking.  What is your priorities?  If lets say something BIG came out on a sunday and during church you HAD to excuse yourself to update your blog, maybe you are in a way idolizing them too much.  If it is something that you enjoy with extra free time that doesn't occupy your thoughts all day/every day, then sounds like a good hobby.  Personally I think musicians (along with other celebrities, athletes, etc) get enough un warranted idolization as it is that they don't need another blog, but to each their own!
