The Day Our Techies Took Over
By Al Gordon
17 Jul 2008
For our annual worship team party we let out techies form a band, they even rewrote a couple of songs, see below...
JESUS SHAVES
(for Ref open 'Jesus Saves' in the pop-up player) Foam is here Spread the news to everyone All his facial hair has gone Jesus shaves Though his dreadlocks still remain He got out his Philishave Jesus shaves Hope is here With the smoothest face around Spread the news to every town To let all the world know that Jesus shaves Razor sharp, is the news to share that Jesus shaves Foam is here He is armed with his Gilette He prefers to shave in wet Jesus shaves Though you think he has a beard The Romans thought it weird; Jesus shaves Hope is here With the smoothest face around Spread the news to every town To let all the world know that Jesus shaves Razor sharp, is the news to share that Jesus shavesWORSHIP THE BOARD
(for Ref open 'Worship The Lord' in the pop-up player) Worship the board With beautiful monitors Assorted reverberence Such a low noise floor You are the board My Yamaha digital With balanced line signal ins And digital core I'm mixing for your glory I'm mixing for the gain above all gains For nothing else is worthy Analogue could never take your place I'll feed all my screens With component video and DVI digital From Barco control You will convert From interlaced analogue And SDI camera shots To scale, mix and cut Projecting for your glory Scaling up to analogue XGA For nothing else is blurry Composite could never take your place
I'm not sure to be amused or distressed that I actually understood everything in the second song...

Hmm… I’ve got one. It’s a lighthearted tune about the wonders of heresy called Oh Behave.
Oh behave
Tim and Al have missed the mark
They will lead us to the dark
Oh behave
And watch out for double talk
You can see it in their walk
Oh behave
Heresy
You can hear their Pastor’s scream
Things are not all as they seem
So let all the world know of their heresy
Point it out and let all the world know of their heresy.
Yeah, that sounds about right.

What actually worried me was that some of them are incredibly good musicians (although to be fair, some are tone deaf which worried me a bit more) - warning for us, me thinks!
Funny you should say that - most of the best audio engineers I know are musicians. Sadly I'm not one of them, but I did find investing in some good books about music theory completely overhauled my whole approach to developing a balanced mix - bit of a tip there...
Also (for maximum nerd points) why does the piccy for this entry depict a Mackie console (SR Series possibly?) when the lyrics clearly indicate the (superior) Yamaha digital series? Only interested is all...
:-P
If you mic the kick drum, God will come.
