too much coffee

Well it's late and I can't seem to get to sleep because I drank some coffee earlier. I "had the talk" with the Saturday bands tonight, that is I told them about the upcoming changes (although i leaked it out a month ago). I'm basically making the music thing a one year committment and having try-outs once a year. This will be to keep things fresh and to bring more people into ministries/community at Riverview as well as giving us a wider talent base. The teams responded so well. They (at least said) thought it was a good idea and seem to be behind us all the way. It's tough when you get into music stuff. It's such a personal thing. And with praise teams you have to balence out the talent issue with the heart issue and style and preferences etc... especially with a large church. I get emails from people almost every week, asking to be in the band. So it will be interesting to see how everything goes. Pray for me!

the one year try-out thing sounds good, we never had "try outs" so for a copuple weeks there was this lady, she played an assortment of rhythm instuments, but she had 0% rhythm it wasnt even like one the wrong beat, she was totally off. it was... distracting.

in closeing, Dan is good at music and also at letting his wife sleep.
