So, about church last night. That was...interesting. My dad, our tech minister and the tech/music assistant were all in Houston at a conference. The light guy didn't show, so I was doing lights and graphics, so I just played with the lights when it seemed appropriate. The sound guy had a head cold and told me right before the service started that he could barely hear, which explained the practice. Benny kept adding extra choruses at the end of songs. Seriously, he added at least one extra chorus to the end of 3 out of four songs. But that's fine. It was just that I was trying to help the sound guy mix it and the vocal team wasn't the strongest and one of the altos was making a valiant attempt to sing soprano. I'm not ragging on her because...well, if you've ever heard me try to hit high notes, it was like that. And the dude listened to me when I told him which vocalists to turn up and down, but he didn't seem to believe me about the piano or percussion. From the booth, on the whole, the music didn't sound so hot. Maybe it sounded better downstairs...Yeah, I'll go with that.
