Ahh, Bryan Lopes, I love you so. Thanks for putting my soprano sax back together in time for me to play my church gigs today. Both AM and PM gigs were heavy on the straight horn. It would have been a drag dealing with my leaky horn for another week.
The AM service was good. The church was struck by lightning Friday, and it blew out some of the audio systems in the sanctuary. That meant no monitor for me, but the playing was good, so no biggie. I did a couple of things on tenor, then soprano for a hymn, clarinet for a hymn, the soprano for the big song of the day, which was cool because there were some nice spots for me in the intro and the breakdown.
My PM service was fine, but nothing particularly exciting. I played a lot of soprano on this one, too, but the band seems to be getting quieter every week, and it's harder and harder for me to hear the piano. I could use a monitor, or else I may cut back to just flute.
