You are so wrong for that.

BTW in my church its;

Bass Geetar- Bro Malcolm. That dude is so hot that i sometimes stop playing to see if anyone notices. So far no one notices. :)
Drums- the other keys player and some fat kid.
Thats it.

Well...
Organ: Minister Hart (a great MOM)
Piano & Keyboard: Joi Keeling and Bro. Charles
Drums: Bro. Forgot-His-Name and Bro. Who-ya-ma-call him...sorry they names just slipped like that.
Saxophone, sometimes: My Uncle
So....in other words, you're telling me you guys DON'T sing stuff like...
"I will praise him every day" and "Emela....Chineke Emela"
....ALL....THE....TIME?....reggae/African-style?
So, umm, where is you????
OK now i am convinced you DO know a lot about Nigerians. LOLOL That Emela song is like a standard in Nigerian churches. People go WILD when they start up that song. Lets not even start on what "everybody Praise The Lord" does to teh congregation. Peoples be leaping on chairs and whatnot. Sometimes i swear its the rythym and not the praise that gets them going.
Actually my church does not sing those songs. Even though we are primarily Nigerian, our pastor does not want us caught up in one mentality. Even if we wanted to play African stuff, we couldn't. I dont know how to do that stuff on the keys, neither does my bass player (he's from Trinidad).
Is your pastor Nigerian?
Very Nigerian 8).
Dude! My pastor is American, and he wants us to do African songs! I tried doing some other stuff before and it didn't go too well. The people were just looking at us. But as soon as we sang "Emela" or "All the way to calvary He bled for me" or ..... don't laugh..... "By the rivers of Babylon" ...they go crazy! Really!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a trend I've observed..
Drums: Bro. Forgot-His-Name and Bro. Who-ya-ma-call him...sorry they names just slipped like that.
Drums- the other keys player and some fat kid.
Drums: Jeff and some other dude
Where there is more than 1 drummer, U guys don't take cognisance/ go thru da trouble of learning the "other" drummer's names..
Could there be some logical explanation behind that (eg..drummers are not that essential in making a service "top-notch" as a keyboardist/ organist ?/?; There's a great harvest of them anyway to stress so much about noting them..etc)
just an observation...
Organ/ me
Keys/ me
Drums/ Keith White
Guitar/ Jeff Houston
Percussion/ Herb Levens (Dorsey Levens pops) lol
Tucker Missionary Baptist Church
515 Oakwood ave.
Syracuse, New York
IT AIN'T FUNNY!

1 doesn't come across this type of rhythm alot, but it's a deep rooted South African rhythm: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLz53gL4wtI&feature=related [/url] (i think some would classify it under the gospo-jazz label ..although i didn't find anything gospel from the lyrics!!)
