Emanuel College Bush Dance

I had had a cold and a headache since Wednesday afternoon until Saturday afternoon.  This combined with a really tough bush dance the week before meant that I was not really looking forward to Saturday nights commitment.

This evening though, the band really got into it.  Being outside, the audio mixing was much easier.  The band sounded great and played with an infectious energy.  megan had tonsilitus and I hope was not too infectious but she kept going as she does.
 It made me feel old.  They were young and full of energy and danced and danced.

The Audio mixer in the foreground is a Soundcraft powerstation 1200.  It has two channels of FOH of 600 watts each and two 15inch speakers.  It puts out lots of sound but on this occasion it was pushed to the limit.

Megan sorting out the finer details of "peel the banana" or maybe left hand clap right hand clap.
 "Freshies on the ground" Some kind of idoctrination and bonding ritual for the new kids.  Maybe we should try that with the next new person that shows up at church.

Or did we just exhaust them with all that dancin.

The portrait of the band.  For their "Best Of" Album.
