We'll have to get together a major UPBI reunion bash and show the youngsters how to get down with style. The world needs to see a bunch of overweight aging baby boomers doing the boogie-woogie for Jesus.

Ahhhhh, even in Canada, threads evolve into standards discussion.








(I thought the "dancing" overboard too. Maybe if the audience had got with it better....)

I liked the dancing.

I've have liked it even more if it had been to a good McGruder song.

I'd as soon have a root canal with a rototiller as listen to very much of that music.

The lights and smoke were great. I might try a strobe and some pyrotechnics the next time I preach on the nether world (and the music that is spawned there).

I was surprised with the talent there, they used a soundtrack. Oh well, they are not my Saints....

I used to say how much I disliked the McGruders, and the Lord pricked my heart on that matter.

I think that the value in using a sound track for such a performance is the consistency of the product and the difficulty in finding someone to play and sing a song a thousand times while the performers get their moves down pat.

Yes, I would say so. They never do "dance" moves. The jumping on that song is about the only dance they do. And on a regular Sun service we don't have fog and lights. I'm not sure when exactly that was recorded, I'm guessing Youth Explosion.

Please understand that I am in no way critical of either signing or dancing, but am curious about the concept of Interpretive Sign?
I don't believe I've seen or heard of any UPC church doing actual choreographed dances... someone can correct me if I'm wrong though. A lot of churches have been doing the signing though.

Boomm, I certainly wasn't referring to standards when I said our girls were wearing flowing garments while doing their thing... just that they were modest about it. (as opposed to the secular dance troupe I had seen at a gospel event recently

I am TOTALLY with you on the sound track thing... I never cared for canned music in church for some reason. But the point of practicing is a good one... imagine how tired Mrs. Monkeyman would be of playing that song!!!

I'm not a country all the time girl myself, I like a good variety.. but I also like to understand the words I'm hearing and have my hearing in tact at the end of service too!! I think I'm a young woman trapped in an old woman's body or something.

We had a beautiful Candlelight service tonight at our church with some nice hot apple cider and shortbread cookies!
