WOW! I think the last time I logged in we were in part 16 or 18. This has been a rough year for me and my playing. My wife and I decided to change churches (from the Lutheran church she grew up in to a local Baptist chuch (my up bringing was Baptist). I had basically stopped playing @ the...

Would anyone here have a SMALL amp they might be willing to lend me for a couple months??? I have a friend that is offering to give me free lessons if I go to his house... but my Behringer 3000 is a bit heavy to lug around.... I was hoping for a rumble 15 or similar...

I found out last week that our new morning praise service, which was supposed to start mid January, has been postponed until the new building is completed (August - November ish). Along with this news we heard that our Director of Music Ministries is retiring. When I spoke to the WL of our new...

I had a similar situation one night that I was running sound.... except it was the guitarist !!!! He was running into an amp that was mic'ed, and I kept turning him down lower and lower, but I couldn't get it to fit in the mix right. when I had him at zero on the board, I figured out that his...

I had bought an SKB case for my daughter's dreadnought acoustic guitar about 2 1/2 years ago, and she was rough with it and broke it in 3 places. I sent SKB customer service an email about it and asked if I could just bring it down to them (their main offices are less the 15 miles away), and...

CC in Brea, Ca

I attended a Calvary Chapel service this evening, their set was very well played, and some of the arrangements, though different from what I am used to, were very well done. Their bassist was playing an Ibanez SR506 6-string, and we chatted for a bit after service and I told him about this...

I picked it up at a local store that ALWAYS beats GC's pricing and got it for $246 out the door. (my Ibanez SR405QM went out the door for $100 less than GC's sticker price) If you look around you can find it online for around $250 no tax or shipping.

I picked up a used shure wireless a while back (price was right, free ninety-free), and found that it didn't work well with my bass. This weekend I bought a Line6 Relay G30. I hooked it up out of the box and went playing through the house with no signal loss. IMO an awesome wireless. great...

Looks awesome!!! .. (and I love that stand, I have one too. best stand ever IMO)

I had posted this a while back, and a few of you gave some input. After some long consideration, I have decided to join this praise band since I will remain a part of this church for at least another 3 years, and it gives me a chance to represent the low end for the Lord. On another note!! I...

What it boils down to mainly is the LCMS (Lutheran Church Missouri Synod) view on the Lord's supper... specifically that they are teaching that the body and blood of Christ are "in, with and under" the bread and wine (and asking a pastor to explain this gets me the response that it is something...

I just got an IM from one of the WLs at my (current) church. They are starting a morning praise service (been talking about it for months), and this WL is asking me to play bass for two Sundays a month. Unlike most of the "gigs" for this church, this one will be paying $30 per session (not much...

&#x202a;Worst Band Ever Butchers Pink Floyd&#x202c;&rlm; - YouTube <--- THE LINK EGADS!!!! I think my ears are bleeding.... and my eyes are no longer straight.... AND I have a headache !!!!!!!:atoz::crying::help:

And yet again the issue of CAPOs raises it's head.... I am a self taught bassist, and have not learned to transose on the fly .... yet. My WLs use capos a lot and I sometimes don't get the music until a couple hours before the service. Written in one key, but capo'ed to another.... this is why...

Easily one my top 5 favorite Weird Al songs

Had a great set tonight (I got to fill in for the normal bassist). We played: I Will Go (an original piece by the WL, written as the school song for 2010-2011) How Great Is Our God Firm Foundation Beautiful One Greater Is He Friend Of God Glorious Day OK... I flubbed a few times, but then...

My first bass was a Cort 4 string.... it got me started for $200 from a pawn shop, and I played it for about 3 years before I decided to upgrade. My upgrade was to an Ibanez SR405QM, that I got from a store other than GC for $400, and I LOVE IT ! My Cort hangs on a wall and never gets played...

AMEN

As I tend to listen to more secular music than praise music for personal enjoyment, if I hear a song that has a nice bassline, I get a copy of the bassline and try to learn it. my favorite right now is Ben E. King's Stand By Me (best on a 5er). It's an easy 8 bar loop that plays through the...

He's a bassist.... I'm quite sure that he can "SHIVER YER TIMBERS".... and the windows and the floor and the roof......

Do you have a problem with Cort basses??? My first bass was a Cort, and I'll admit it wasn't great, but it did the job for years, and still hangs in a place of honor in my music room.

Apparently I'm playing tonight:bassist::hyper:. I don't know the set list yet... probably won't until 3pm with services at 6pm... but the lord will provide me with what I need to play properly for him.

apPARENTLY, I was unclear.... there was a flautist, flauting(fluting...blowing in her instrument... whatever), while I was playing bass and soloing the song vocally.

set went well... except that the WL couldn't sing very well as her voice has been ravaged by a flu type bug:rolleyes: that's going around... so... I offered to have my self mic'd:eek: for the service. I sang on all but the last three songs:)... and had to do a bass/flute/vocal solo:rollno: for...

WOOHOO !! playing again tomorrow!! 2 weeks in a row... .I haven't been asked to that in a while. our setlist: Who Am I Here I Am To Worship I Give You My Heart Beautiful One There Is None Like You (Sovereign Lord) Bind Us Together In His Time Create In Me A Clean Heart Sent Forth By...

As bad as having a DUI is, the Lord, I think, made you get it so that you could witness to these guys, and bring them into Christ's fold. Good shepherding, good witnessing.

The pastor at the first church I attended regularly would simply say, if the child was being too loud, that he/she was making a joyful noise unto the lord.

Went to church tonight early to do sound for the PW team, and they found out that their drummer wasn't going to make it. Their bassist said he could do drums and I said I could fill in on bass if they wanted. THEY AGREED! I got to jam for the lord tonight and it felt awesome to be able to do it...

Our yutes do "Undignified", based on this passage, regularly as a closing song. Whenever they do, I encourage the singers to dance around quite a bit... OR I WILL.... IN THE BALCONY... by the sound board, where the whole youth band can see, and feel embarrassed by my actions

SNOW ??? what is that... we don't get that in the part of southern California that I play in ! ;):spit:

Since I tend to play the roots only and am not yet good enough to transpose on the fly, and one of our WLs CAN'T play barre chords or an un-capo'ed B, I not only own a capo, but have used it frequently. I had one song that I knew the WL was going to capo, and printed pre-transposed chord...

I have an SKB case for my bass, and bought one for my daughter's acoustic guitar. I trust SKB and have for years, and will for a long time to come. as for protection.... I would trust the gorillas at the airport with it if I had to

I find my self in an interesting quandary..... I play bass (duh) and enjoy it. I started playing worship music to further my bass playing, and found that I enjoy playing praise music. (I still prefer to listen to secular music for enjoyment though) When my WL quit, our band was dis-band-ed...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL. MAY THE LORD BLESS THE TIME YOU SPEND WITH YOUR FAMILIES AND KEEP YOU ALL SAFE. JOSEPH

I have been quite happy with mine, and I paid around $125 for it new.

I've got a Line 6 Bass Floor Pod that I use for worship, and I use the chorus and distortion effects more than anything else. I've toyed with the synth,... but I don't care for it for worship.

Makes for a mighty small drumstick !!!;)
