(December 14, 2008)—Members of a Christian band who were expecting to perform for President Bush Sunday night doesn't mind that Mr. Bush went to Iraq instead.

The White House, to keep President Bush's trip a secret, put out a false schedule that said he would attend the taping of TNT's Christmas in Washington show.

Casting Crowns lead singer Mark Hall jokes that he knew it all along.

"We were secretly a part of this whole thing. See, we're the ruse for him to go on his mission. So I feel like, you know, a little Jack Bauer right now,” he said.

On a serious note, Hall said Casting Crowns has been invited to return next Easter to North Korea, where they were allowed to perform Christian concerts in 2007.
