Hello,

Had my first gig today. I played with my 16 year old daughter and the children's church group. Was a little bit nervous but not too bad. Some basic D-G-D-A-D action goin on but fun non the less.:rockon:

Thanks Mark. Yeah it is fun jamming with her. She recently picked up guitar and that is what we played together today but she has played piano since 3rd grade and that is what she is really good at. She leads the youth group at church. I have to mention she sings really well too. I can't resist braggin on my little love.

We are thinking of doing a Christmas song like Trans-Siberian Orchestra does. That might be fun jammin with some distortion:rockon:

I agree, that had to be one fun, cool gig.
It would be really neat to play with my kids, if either of them ever showed an interest in learning (plus the fact that they learn so much quicker than I do, at some point I could learn from them too).

That's one of the main reasons I started working with our youth group and started a praise band, my daughter (the recently turned 18 year old) sings with the youth choir and now the youth praise band. She graduates this year and usually, our kids move out of youth after graduation, especially when they go off to shool. But, daughter number 2 is going to be 12 in December and will go into the 7th grade next year, so she'll be in youth this summer and she sings pretty good too! So, the legend continues... :AOK: :bravo:

Congrats on gigging with your daughter! Enjoy it every chance you can, because in another day or so, she'll be grown and gone... :(

Congrats!

I went to church yesterday and all they had was piano on the contemporary songs. I've told them I can play guitar or bass any time they need me and they wont take me up on the offer. :(

Well, maybe you need to head to Georgia. We'll put you to work!
