High School Kids and Soccer Moms
This is my band...and I love them. Heres the round up. My drummer is great. He is a yoga lovin pirate with a beard like papa smurf. He is so cool that he wears shades while playing drums during church. My bass player is a hyper calvinist who has a secret love afair with the lead singer of the stray cats. He is always decked out in full rockabilly form. My acoustic guitarist is an awesome guy as well. He is a hard core druggie-turned-180-to-Jesus evangelical. He has a great ear for chords. My pianoist is a retired piano teacher. Shes has this keyboard with some interesting sounds she like to use. Last week I thought someone was blowing a austrailian long pipe behind me. Now my vocalists. All are great ladies, but no guys..huh, never thought of that. Sometimes they like to sing a few octives high like church mice, but once we work on it...they get it. I have a great sax/ flute guy who I mentored in college and three sound guys that rotate. God has totally provided everyone and everything needed for music in our church. I'm really lucky to have a full crew. Though we may not be the most talented bunch we have Jesus and we are making joyful noise! (I appoligize for my first cheezy post)

I think it's called a didgereedoo, not a Australian long pipe.
You make them sound like the SNL skit for the jr. high music teachers as the prom night entertainment...funny! "Rock the Casba!" "If you want my body and you think I'm sexy..." all sung in operatic voices with what's his name on the keyboard.
