Backup ain't so bad...

So, since watching the David Crowder DVD just recently released my desire to be a backup electric guitarist has increased... Seeing all the cool pedals that they get to play with... Attempting to describe how pedal A goes to B then through C if C is turned on... if C is off it goes to D... which then leads to F... then to amp 1... if C is turned off it goes to E which leads to J then actually plays through both amp 1 and 2... 

All this being said... i enjoy the thought of having loads of pedals and confusing the average watcher from the time I say "A goes into B"... but no, currently I just run three pedals, one of which is a tuner... not too incredibly exciting in the pedal area... which it's cool I guess... I LOVE my position and lead worshipper.. 

But deep down.. i want to be a backup guitarist... for our opener this sunday I get to play back up... it's fun!  There's a strange release that I experience when I don't have to worry about anything except playing guitar... 

Overall though... i just love playing guitar... i love the thought of getting to aid in the worship of a bunch of people each sunday... I'm so glad that I have found my call... I can't see myself doing anything different... I get so excited about leading worship, it's a lot of fun... I can't wait until I go full time... I love my job! It's going to be great doing it 40+ hrs a week!!
