A Friendly Reminder

Hellohello!

Im looking forward to getting back into leading worship tmr.
It's actually my my first time back leading worship in YM with a full band.
Our prac on friday lasted 5 hours but what a great 5 hours it was.

Anyway, just so you guys are kept in the loop,
the songs we're doing tmr are All For Love, What the world will never take, Mercy, Fire Fall Down and Glorified.
Hope you guys come with a heart that is ready to worship God tmr, because we're going to go deep into the heart of worship.


On another note,
I know there's another 2 weeks of jamming coming up.
Woohoo!
But before we go into jamming, I'd like to remind EVERYONE, in particular the younger band, about our responsibilities as band members.

I've noticed that of late, alot of us are coming to jammings without having properly listened to the song or practised it on our own time at home.
Ok, maybe we hear it once or twice and think we've got it.
But I'd like to remind everyone that it is our responsibility to listen to the song over and over again and practise our parts of the song.

This goes for both worship practise as well as jamming actually.
When I lead worship or play for the adult band, during the week, I would have burnt the songs onto CD and made it into a playlist on my iPod, and listen to it whereever i went.
This is so I am familiar with the song and how the feel of it goes.
I don't expect you to do the same, but it would be fantastic if you did listen hard to the song before jamming/prac so you know your part.

Obviously for prac, its quite clear, because we only have 2 hours to practise 4-5 songs, and then have to play those on Sunday at YM.

But with jamming, I know it's for fun and its not leading to anything.
BUT its still worship.
One of the purposes of jamming is to gather us as a band, practise some songs and try to improve our own skills as well as our tightness as a band.
So if you come without knowing the songs or knowing your part, you'll be wasting your time, my time and your band members time.

Please do in the future, check back the blog on tuesday/wed. Jill and Jared are fantastic in posting the songs by those days, so it gives you ample time to listen to it over and over again, pick up your instrument and practise it every night!

Just a friendly reminder guys!

See you tomorrow morning. Don't be late for YM!
