Set List 07/06/08

Wow yesterday was amazing... even the fact that between the AC issue and the stage lights it felt like it was a million degrees on stage it was an awesome day.



Okay finally took the time to find this link it's for the New (well in context anyway) Northpoint Music CD "Louder than Creation" which contains most (if not all) of the new worship songs we are integrating into our lineup. And it looks like if you sign up you can get the single free, (and if you look you can get a free let me sing core package)... (something I wish I had seen before purchasing said core package... oh well) for you worship leaders out there it means you get a free set of charts and a demo track of the song. The song in question is Let Me Sing (Which was part of the set list this week).

Speaking of which our set list this week consisted of:

Point of Difference (Hillsong) - I think from the United album, it's a fun high-energy worship song and one of Pick's (Our Worship Pastor)'s favorite songs.

Solid Rock (Traditional/Passion: Hymns Ancient and Modern Arrangement) I think most "church" people know this song, being from that traditional "church" background I know I did, the arrangement Passion did with the song is great! It's still very simplistic, but with a 6/8 (almost, but not quite a swung 6/8) feel, verses the old 3/4 that you find in old church hymnals... And the versus has a tom/kick riff that to me (as a drummer) almost feels tribal.

Let me Sing (Todd Fields/North Point Music, see above) - This is one of those amazing worship songs that you (at least we) don't get tired of, I mean we have done it three times in the last four weeks...

Happy Day (Kristian Stanfill) - No, not the one you're thinking of, yet another song from the North Point Louder than Creation album (have you bought it yet? What are you waiting for!) Pick, (see above) lead worship for the FCA Powercamp... (Fellowship of Christian Athletes for those with Acrophobia) and this was a huge connect, as it was with us this week. High energy (My arms were exhausted by the end of it) with an almost disco-ish drum beat, (much better than that though)...

No performance song this week, we took a much needed break from performance songs... they're a lot of fun and usually a very good connect to the message, but they can be a bear to pull off, (some more than others) so this week was a break from that.

Oh This week's gear casualty list:
1: Peter Erskine Signature drumstick
1) 14" Cobalt River (ie: Uber cheap) crash cymbal.

Band This Week: Bill, Justin, Anne, Mia, Jeremy, Dave, Me.
