The Electric: The Not Cool List

I try and address different aspects of the practical side of playing electric guitar in church music.

This week we’ll talk things that aren’t cool but are necessary in creating and maintaining a good electric guitar rig.

Finding Your Place Pt. 4(B)

Preface

I started playing bass when I was 12. When I was 14 I picked up the guitar. I’ve been playing both ever since. I led worship for the first time at age 14. I learned to practice by playing in bands in high school, and worship teams in my teens and 20′s.

Not everyone who plays in a church band has that kind of background. A lot of good folks learned to play their instrument on their own and don’t know how to play and practice with a band. The following series of posts will be thoughts on how to serve God and His church well, by learning how to practice well. Here’s a few thoughts and musings on “Finding A Place” in the band for you and your instrument.
