food for thought

“The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.” (Hebrews 1:3)

Abt THE day4

This, my friend, is the 70th entry on this blog and it's going to be a special one.

You see, this blog was created last year with the little intention to keep "album-gaga-ers" updated on the latest progress. Well, that's basically you readers out there.. We've..
(I should save this for the last entry - lol )

Back to the concert.

1st session.
It was, aweeesome. When I first stepped into Sanctuary at around 7.30pm, there was already a vast crowd praising and worshiping God. I've never seen such numbers in any of the concerts we had nor any Teenz held events. That goes to show that the Church which is represented by the brothers, sisters, uncles, aunties, boys and girls are truly indeed amazingly supportive.

Half way through P&W, the singers started marching out from the right, neatly like always and at the other side, the musicians walked up the musicians way. You know how they walk up stage, don't you? haha.. Opps.

So anyway, the moment the worship leader passed the microphone to Boon Fei, red LEDs were lighted up on every video cameras and recording equipments . We were officially going on live recording. They boomed the atmosphere by starting out with "How Great is Our God (bridge part)". Which inevitably stirred up everyone's soul. No doubt about that. Hands were raised all over Sanctuary.

The whole recording progressed along with a number of songs. One tip for those who didn't make it to the concert. The band played very tight together with the singers. It's so obvious that they put in a lot of effort and they certainly did. Great job guys !

(end of 1st session)

Sharing.
Pastor James on shared his own life experience and of his parents. What better way to capture the hearts of people than with your own life story? Although I've heard that sharing quite a number of times before, but still life stories will always remain as the greatest stories one can ever tell. Only that the kids went a little too noisy. Throwing their light sticks like paper aeroplane.

Yong Thai rapped in the 2nd session. Mr.White cap rocks the house! That was the highlight.

Dum che tak dum dum che tak.

Dewy:

haha, i think it was a great night, but because i was the drummer, didn't get to see much of wad's happening around me.. cos the drums is way behind. But i really enjoyed the worship and playing along with other musicians & blending in with the music and singing =)

I'll talk more about the preparation before the concert starts..
At about 4pm, a team of 'makeup-people' brought their little suitcases of powder, spray, lipsticks, mascara etc and set up in room H4-5. The choir members and backup singers are the earliest to get dressed and be ready for makeup. When i mentioned "get dressed", it's actually some cool black t-shirts & jeans for choir, and other nice clothes, not really dress laaa =P

So the girls get their faces powdered up first, while the guys 'elek' at one corner.. pai seh X 2, don't-want-don't-want la.. haha. In the end guys still need to put on some light makeup so that they will look good on stage =) bright spotlights shining on stage tend to make you look pale..

Some ppl even go hair saloon to have their hair done professionally wor.. Boon Fei's hair like got sparkling bright-bright stuffs, and terence dyed his hair a little red/brown. Nice nice.. As for me, I have asked Peter to style up my hair with gel/clay/wax or watever that makes my hair stand or look stylishly messy & (maybe) younger, and somehow other guys came to help out & my hair is done in 20 mins by 5 guys, lol.

In the makeup room, everybody is just chilling out, chatting or just sitting there, but i could feel the nervousness and excitement building up for the concert in the evening. Everybody is waiting for it to happen, the concert that we had been preparing for 12 months. =)

Later on, at about 5+pm, we had sound check in sanctuary, the concert venue, testing all the microphones, choir's condenser mics, guitars, bass, the overall balance, equalisations... we start to see teenagers pouring into the hall, it was so exciting, because we are going to have a great time and God is going to do great things.

*Praise God that 23 ppl received Christ and about 800-900 ppl came to the live recording concert! =)

nice la, anybody want to add any comments, please leave a comment or at the chatbox to the right =)
