This took me by surprise. No words.
I have played with multiple bands that use clicks. There's no standard, at least in my experience. Most of them have used the 1/4 notation, but a few used the 1/8 notation. My current church doesn't...
In a way yes. I didn't particularly like it. But I understand both sides. Their thing was regardless if YOU are doing it for the right, the people that are watching may not be mature enough to not...
Interesting that this was brought up. Recently played in what they called "the pit". All of their musicians are hidden, choir was hidden, just whoever was leading that particular song, and the...
Guess we'll see how it goes Saturday lol.
I supposed it's one of the bad things about leaving my kit at the church, other drummers have access to it. Drum-zilla got on them earlier, annnddd one of the springs on my Speed Cobra pedal snapped....
I really like the way a particular song sounds, and without the percussionist it sounds empty. We'll have to adapt, but it's not what we prefer.
I bought the new Jesus Culture CD a few weeks ago(really good btw), and for the life of me I couldn't comprehend what was going on... looked at the music videos they have for that CD, like 2...
I don't believe the music is too complex. With that said, it's getting more complex, but I'm not complaining. Gone are the days where anyone can get up, look at the chord chart, and play without...
Ouch. Awesome looking video though!
Happy Easter!
Well the Easter service went well, our set including communion and alter-call was:
Happy Day(in the style of JC)
See His Love(JC)
We Believe(Newsboys)
Forever(Bethel)
Lead Me to...
I understand where you're coming from, and definitely respect it. We've done that often to older songs. However, my team tends to try to do it as close as possible to the original or another radio...
We changed the way we did that song. No tom beats, no snare beats, no four on the floor. Similar to Kutless, but without the tom grooves. Not near as annoying, and always goes over well.
Ha! That's my story on "Freedom" by Bethel. <-- another snare groove song. So many things going on in that song, it takes ALOT of people to get it to sound like that. I saw them live, and it sounded...
:icon_lol: Yep. That's my denomination lol. I haven't played one of the zion/jewish sounding songs for a few years now, thankfully. Looking back, I don't think anyone actually liked or responded to...
When I was first learning, there was one song I had a little trouble learning... Hosanna by Hillsong. Learned how to do ghost notes with that song.
Then there was the song that I had ALOT of...
Going through this with White Flag :doh: 10,000 Reasons was a little bit of a pain too.
Any of you have that one song that you just dread playing? Mine is Rooftops by JC. I usually have a metronome that flashes anyways, but I normally don't have to pay alot of attention to it. With that...
Haha I know alot of churches that are doing that song for Easter. That song is originally done by Bethel Music on the Tides album I believe. I heard that song for the first time around Halloween last...
Is it "Forever"? That's the one we're working on for Easter lol.
Yup. I've noticed the same, the majority of the new songs we have done have had tom grooves(or tom beats) somewhere in them. Also noticing alot of snare(marching style) grooves in our songs.
Off...
Maybe he'll be thankful to play with someone that has dynamics after he meets others.
That's a good idea.
I have an IEM, a small powered Hotspot monitor, and a floor monitor. Dynamic wise, I probably play softest with the IEM. Hopefully your experience is different. Regarding the shield, let that be the...
This is honestly a "touchy" subject around where I live. Without getting into the religious part of it, let's just say my pastor believes people should be reverent, respectful, etc.. at the church,...
