Hehe, that is really cool. Wish I could be there for that!!!

Welcome to all the recent new guys!!! After 2 weeks on at the main campus, I'll be at one of the satellite campuses this Sunday. We have not had a good track record there with technical glitches every time. Praying hard for this one!!!

Woohoo! I managed to get through today's 2 services without my tablet 'safety zone'. There is so much more freedom without it!!!! The pressure was definitely there having to MD and play, but all was fine!

I'm determined to ditch the Tablet for this Sunday. I only have 5 songs to memorise and I know them... but the Tablet becomes a safe zone. I really need to ditch it!!!!

Just back from practice... Went well, we had our full band this week, unlike last week's skeleton team. I was faced with Salvation is Here from Hillsong... man, that bassline is quite something. It's not so much the notes but the picking speed that I'm battling with. I'm going to have to...

haha yeah, "weekend off", what's that!?!?!?!? I haven't seen one of those in a while, but then again, I do look for any excuse to play!!!

Yeah I had the same problem with my neck through build. I never had the foresight to build the neck a touch higher... probably due to planning the whole build without having all the parts in hand. So I routed the bridge down. I had a problem where I couldn't drop the bridge any lower because...

Wow, that is a super technical POWERFUL song!!!!! I'm off this week. Good to have a break :) Got Songwriters tonight though, super excited about that!!!

Hehe, seems there were a few 'tough' Sundays for a few of us. Our team also had a tough Sunday. This is how much 1 single person can affect so many. Our team was out at the new campus this week. Because it's a new campus we rent space and thus have to set the entire system up each week. The...

Wow wow wow. I have NEVER seen a drummer 'caged' so heavily as in Bardley's last pic above!!!!

I'm the Music Director in our team. This involves me (while playing bass) giving music cues to the team via a talkback mic. I find this quite tricky... it's way different to singing over a mic while playing. But now to 'talk', it can easy distract you or throw your rhythm off etc. For the...

I'd say 90% of our songs are English. Then maybe 5% in other African languages and then another 5% which is English and we have translated the chorus or bridge to accommodate another 2 or 3 African languages and we usually end the song off like that. We do try to have at least 1...

I'm a video editor. Making TV shows, music videos, documentaries etc. But I'd much rather be building basses :) So last night we held our first 'newly revamped' songwriters after a couple months off. For those who don't know, my wife and I were tasked with restarting the songwriters after the...

Some excellent points you have there. I think using something like Soundcloud is a great idea to collaborate away from the 'official' meetings. I'll look into that. But I think you nailed the most important part there. Seeking God first!!! The other day in the shower (my thinking place) I...

'Coffee shop church' sounds great! The closest we have to that is our Young Adults Life Group. But still not the same thing. Now, sorry to change the subject here but My wife and I have been tasked with something in our team and I want to get your opinions or experiences on the matter...
