We justr finished our first concert (well, a few hours ago)! It rocked. We played for the other 2 teams and the staff in a room barely more then 30 x 20 with a full sound system. It was loud and boisterous. I personally feel our team played the best concert out of the three, but I AM biased. We performed two songs in spanish (Trading my sorrows for the joy of the Lord, and one about if you have the faith of a mustard seed you can move mountains) along with a song called God-shaped hole, Wherever we go (kinda a disco feel), and one more slightly escaping my thoughts. It had it's rough spots, it had high energy though. Which is something we had been trying to get. We finally (I say we since I am considered just as much a part of the band) got some stage presense and made it look like we were having fun on stage, not just being awkward.
To those who are... hesitant about the music... let me say that this mission is to reach the children in as culturally relavant way as possible. They love American Rock Music. We bring them American ROck Music plus the Gospel and Christian songs. I really am buying into this ministry. We are very focused on prayer in our day to day lifestyle, and especially before we perform and after we perform.
Flight logistics are still waiting to be heard about. I think they are trying to send me with JBL's even if we have to remove the speaker coils before the flight and send me with a leatherman to put it all back together on the other end.
One final note, my comments are now being reviewd by me before they are posted. Yes, when you submit your comments they WILL go through, do not worry about that. Please post comments in English, or give me a translation. Thanks!
Peace to you all!

So, I will do English, esp. since I don't habla nothin' but English.
It sounds so great! I am sure your equipment will get there in God's way and in His time. (Maybe He doesn't want it so loud?) Tee hee.
Love, P
