sooo, looking back at this weekend i can see how God was working things out…long before i knew that they needed worked out…going into this past weekend i had NO lead guitar…NONE…and i happened to e-mail a lead guitarist that had moved to FL a couple years back…i knew he was coming to town at the end of the month and wanted to see if he was interested in jamming with us when he was in town…what do you know…he was coming to town this past weekend too and wanted to plug in!!!
then on saturday afternoon at 1:00pm i received a phone call from the lead worship pastor…the one female vocalist that was available for the weekend was not able to make it in…her parents were just in a car accident, that she witnessed, and she was at the hospital with them…sooo, i just asked him to see if his daughter was available to sing on such short notice (about an hour from rehearsal time)…of course she was able to work things out and did a GREAT job of learning a couple new tunes in the car on the way there…
rehearsal went very well…it was great to catch up with “shred” and to play with him again…for whatever reason things were a little off at one point or another in each of the three services…i don’t think we repeated any of our mistakes, we just came up with new ones…but i can honestly say that the mistakes did not hinder what God was doing…because HE’S good like that…
the best part of the weekend for me was getting to pull out my tele and play it…it’s been awhile…and i’m even going to use it this weekend for most of the set…
sooo there you have it…
sunday setlists…LIVE…take sixteen…
