Set List 05/18/08

Yesterday was a high energy service, Josh brought a power-packed message and the Band was rocking.

We kicked off the service with You Are by Todd Fields
We followed up with God of Second Chances by our own Jeremy Pickwell immediately followed by Glorious God by New Life Worship I really like this worship song, it was a repeat for first service, but a first time for second service. (see last week's notes.

God of Second chances is an awesome song, that we like to joke is never the same song twice. I'm thinking about producing a loop to go along with it so that Jeremy will have no choice but to do it the same way.

Our Performance song this week was a cover of clocks by coldplay... kind of.
(No comment, nope, none at all, sorry if you missed it, then you missed it). All I can (or will) say about it is that it was absolutely awesome.

Creative experiment...

So like I mentioned before welcome to the Lifepoint Worship blog, I'm hoping to add a few more bloggers to this one. In addition to myself drummer/music director I've got Clark who covers a lot of the technical side of a worship service and hopefully will have one of our worship leaders soon.

Set List 05/11/08

Yesterday was Mother's Day and we really wanted to go for the weepy effect, so we hit the moms with a sappy video and then closed the message with a song "Never Alone" By Jim Brickman and either Sara Evans or Lady Antabellum (sp?).

Mia did a smashing job with that song, (Better than the original in my opinion). And our vocals did amazing with the back-up on the song.

Our Worship Set list was:
1st Service:
My Savior Lives By New Life Worship
Glorious God By New Life Worship
Amazing Grace By Tomlin

2nd Service:
My Savior Lives By New Life Worship
Amazing Grace By Tomlin

We had to not do Glorious God because of service time constraints, but I'm adding it to next week's roster because I felt that it was very powerful. Band was Ronnie, Bill, Elizabeth, Myself and Jeremy, Vocals were Leigh and Jessica (with Mia singing the one song).

2nd Service's Amazing Grace was... well... amazing. I distinctly remember Todd Fields (one of the Worship leaders at North Point) talk about how occasionally they can only do one or two worship songs and that at first they (their team) was asking how can you worship with only one or two songs? Well having done a two song worship I found that it can still be really powerful, (which is, by the way what they found).

Oh and Speaking of Northpoint there's a ton of songs off their new album (Louder than Creation) that we want to do and will slowly be incorporating into our set list so get ready to rock out and praise our Glorious God.

Oh and have I mentioned how amazed I am at our band and tech team? We were plauged with technical issues (including the MAC crashing again... apparently this one was dropped, sent back for repairs, returned and is still having issues, now if it were a pc...)
