Phil W Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Since I got bass-fit again I've been playing in Church every once in a while. It's a challenge to develop (or more accurately redevelop) a new skill set: reading and watching a conductor; playing written lines in unison with organ pedals; transposing on the fly; handwriting arrangement changes on charts on the fly and son on. But it's been a very neat experience. The tonight I got an email from Church asking me if I'd play at a BBC recording of a special service at 8:30am on an upcoming Sunday. It will mean rehearsing the afternoon before and being at the church at 7:30 am but I'm pretty excited about this. Just hope the fix the dodgy pot on the house bass amp! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johngoldsby Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Cool! Does that mean that it will be streamed on BBC at that time? Or at a later date? www.goldsby.de Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted September 15, 2010 Author Share Posted September 15, 2010 I haven't heard yet but they are usually streamed at a later date I think. I have heard of Christmas services being recorded in summer before! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MelodiousThump Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Way cool. Let us know when we might hear it! ***Why?*** Because with these two fingers on my right hand, I can make a room full of women all move their butts at the same time.
