Gospel concerts and Christmas kicks in
Busy couple of days. I was performing with the Montréal Intercultural Gospel Choir Friday and Saturday. Friday the stage crew was taking their sweet time so we had to start playing without a sound check. Total disaster - sigh. Saturday was much better and I brought my own monitor so I could at least hear myself. It was fun to play a gig with Vanessa for the first time ever. We share jams, etc. but this is the first time we actually performed on a stage at the same time. Cool!
Our Funk Defenders gig Saturday got cancelled due to a booking conflict. Grrr! And apparently we got bumped despite the fact that we had booked this way before the other band. Very annoying. Club owners don't seem to understand that this is not a hobby and that we have passed on other gigs (and income) to play at their venue.
Yesterday I had a rehearsal with the boys for our recording session next Sunday. And in the afternoon I went grocery shopping and made a Mexican bean salad for the Christmas potluck at the Neufelds'. Christmas coming up. Time to start baking Danish cookies...
