When there's toilet tissue electric taped to the bass drum.

When there's 5 chairs, 5 drummers next to the drums waiting in line for the next song.

When the organist tries to start every song in C sharp.

When one person is shouting and another runs next to them hand on shoulder and starts shouting as well.

When at least one musician has grown dreads since Tye Tribbet became popular.

When someone's playing a tambourine that's missing everything except the wood and skin.

When you have to put a piece of paper between the organ key to make it work.

When your youth choir's first dress code was black and white.

When there was always one girl who seemed to lead every song.

When the organist throws up hand signal 5 during a shout which always leads into hand signal 2.

When a 6 minutes of a 7 minute shout is all breaks.

When people say "Thank Yah for taking me over the highways and byways" during testimony service.

When you've heard the phrase "pray for me as I pray for you in these last and evil days".

YES!!!

I'm guilty of C Sharp... it was the first key I learned, and still the most comfortable.  Given a choice, that's where we're going, lol.

I'm dying at the paper in between the keys, I saw that at my godmom's church in Salt Lake... LOL!

When you're playing the song correctly while the pastor is singing incorrectly but he snaps and tells you you're supposed to follow him (David Ruffin style) LOL
