Since we are a brand new church that is not having services yet I have been debating on what to begin working on in band rehearsals. I know that we need to begin rehearsals so we can be ready for our May preview service, but I am unsure about what to work on. Currently the band is comprised of people who have all played together before at our sponsor church, Brookwood Baptist Church. Since we have all played together before we shouldn’t have any of that initial weirdness trying to feel each other out. I’m thinking the best option is to start rehearsing songs that will be new to us, as we didn’t play them at Brookwood, but also mix in one or two songs that we did play at Brookwood and really start working on making it our own.

My thought process is also compounded by the fact that we currently have no equipment of our own and wont until late June when we get our equipment from Church on Wheels. I have gotten permission to use some of Brookwood’s equipment along with their portable sound system, but this will still make for some rough, ‘nearly unplugged’ rehearsals.

We’ll see how it all goes, we should be having our first playing rehearsal this week (on Thursday). We already met once for me to go over the info sheet and rules and expectations stuff. I’ll post an update later this week…

If anyone has any ideas, post a comment and let me know.
