In addition to playing bass for and leading our Early Service Praise Team, I have a free-lance gig with a local gospel group. I had both my groups performing the music at Tuesday evening's service. As it turns out, I'm also the one that knows the most about our PA system (scary thought) so I helped the guest choir that played Monday night set up. The bassist was playing a super sweet Epic 5 string. So Monday and Tuesday were both Alembic Night in the Sanctuary. Tonight would have made it a clean sweep, but our senior choir is more accustomed to singing with just the organ or piano, so I stayed home with the kids (one of whom is now taking lessons from Dad) Peace, James foth Intermediate Member Username: foth Post Number: 115 Registered: 12-2004 Posted on Thursday, September 21, 2006 - 2:34 am:    All right James... there's nothing better than passing it on to the next generation! :-) Paul keavin Senior Member Username: keavin Post Number: 934 Registered: 12-2002 Posted on Thursday, September 21, 2006 - 4:27 am:    which alembic does he get for high school graduation???... dadabass2001 Senior Member Username: dadabass2001 Post Number: 678 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Thursday, September 21, 2006 - 5:32 am:    "Uh, dad?

I know of at least three Alembic owners that play in worship bands in the Dallas area, myself included. Can't really think of a better place to play one.

My youngest daughter plays but she opted for the guitar instead of bass. She and I both play at our church. bassdr Member Username: bassdr Post Number: 87 Registered: 10-2004 Posted on Thursday, September 21, 2006 - 7:00 pm:    I also play with our Prays Band at my church- Flame Koa Essence prays every Sunday with me.

But don't fret Kev, there IS a church for you: http://www.clickpress.com/releases/Detailed/12138005cp.shtml (By the way, I'd take the claims of legality with a large grain of salt). Finally, in the words of my people, "Happy New Year"!
