Small church, big dogs Reply to this Post Post Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Posts Report Post to a Moderator       Go to the top of this page
As I also posted on The Choir's board, I just wanted to share with you my Sunday morning church experience with the Lost Dogs yesterday. They played at Derri's dad's church, which -- according to Mapquest -- is only 9 minutes away from my house. It just would have been wrong not to go.

Anyhow, the church is a small building with a big wooden cross behind the pulpit. The crowd was an odd mix of Dogs fans and senior citizens The service began with the church's worship band, before the Dogs took the stage for an expected 45 minute set. But they actually ended up playing at least an hour. Lots of good songs, bad jokes and uplifting messages.

This show was special for me, since I was able to attend with my whole family. My son (11) is just now starting to appreciate his dad's CD collection, so it was so cool to introduce him to Derri, Terry and Mike. They were all friendly, as always -- even when my daughter (5) gave Mike a crayon stick figure Dogs picture she'd drawn during the show.

I've seen the Dogs, as well as their individual bands, many times. From large stages -- like Cornerstone -- to small clubs. But this was special, since it was on sacred Choir ground, if you will. Just across from the church is an apartment, which used to house The Choir's recording studio. Oh, if those walls could only talk! And to think that Derri grew up running around these grounds dreaming of one day becoming a rock star.

If anybody else on the board was there, please chime in. For those of you who are a little further away than 9 minutes, I am sincerely sorry you couldn't be there. Once again, this was special.

dan,

welcome and thanks for the background on the show...

sounds too cool - really wanted to be there - but a bit far for a sunday morning from Pittsburgh, PA.

Did you manage to jot down or swipe a set list? Recording? pics? okay that would be tacky shooting photos and bootlegging a church service...

but a set list and quipes from memory would suffice!

And if Mike left any backwash in a water bottle, I think I can sell it in little vials.

Keep the bottle and sell it separately when it's empty.

I was there and I got!

no set list
no photos
no video (although my camera was loaded and sitting beside me the whole time)
no wood sliver
no powerpoint going on... but they did say that Derri was going to install a new Multimedia Set up for the Church this week. Tongue
No MikeRoe Backwash


It was too nice to mess it up with some dork video taping in the back.... now the SD show had 6 cameras going so I'm sure those will be around soon for trading. Cool

actually... the person running sound at the Church did have a VHS Camera rolling from inside the booth. Not sure if that will make the trading circuit or not.


I was there and you all were not! (In my best Nelson voice) Ha Ha




and to top this all of I went the the DAS show and got to see Mike playing with them too! Pleased
