Very well said. I'd like to add if there are any singers reading this, these same princilpes apply. 8O yes thats right. There is nothing worse than the supranos breaking glass, and a few ear drumms during a worship service because "I can't hear myself"..... Keep you're fonzy thumbs up in your pocket and let the sound man do his job! That just bug's me when the sound guy gets eveything set, then during the service you have 4-5 or more singers in front coaxing the sound guy to turn you up! cause someone youre standing next to is swallowing the mic. Singers need to work this out with the four finger technique or what ever else you can come up with. Remember we are there to worship the Lord. I don't believe he takes pleasure in knowing we are damaging the ears of His creation.
