Hey Guys

Sorry for the delay in adding my words into the mix - had a pretty hectic few days since the gig - it's the silly, oops, busy season for us clergy types I'm afraid.

Can't really add anything to what has already been posted.  It was a fantastic gig, best I've heard the boys with great rapport to boot. Sound was excellent (well done blokesattheback) and rickster64's photo's really do give a wonderful overview of the night.  Really enjoyed Emmanuel being 'rocked up' and thought it came into it's own as a venue for this type of gig.  lufcman80f, just FYI, the band played in our worship area, not on a stage! 

Really enjopyed Signs of Change - had goosebumps all over as I reminisced about the one and only time I heard those songs live all those many moons ago.  Someone must volunteer themselves as singer/guitarist so that SofC can hit the road as a fully fledged tribute band. 

Great to see old faces and be introduced to some new at Billericay.  Thanks everyone for supporting the gig and for your support of Just Care.  Money is still coming in, but we managed to raise around £700 (thanks to the generosity of the band), which will make a great difference to kids in Uganda.  I'm leading a team in August 2010 and so "I need some time to think" about how we might put this money towards a project or something like that.  Would be good for ATF to be known in the 'Pearl of Africa'.  Fancy coming over for a few gigs guys? 

Agree with Maggie about Greenbelt.  I'm sure ATF could still get the crowds rocking mainstage.  There can't be many bands, even with today's gizzmo's, who can get a sound out of an iron as old Banksy does. 

Hey Zippy, any chance of a copy of that DVD? 

Well ATF fans, that's about all for now - need my beauty sleep.

Be blessed

Paul

"Sound was excellent (well done blokesattheback)"

Good point Paul, I don't do the techie stuff all by myself - indeed, when Signs are on stage I don't do it at all!
So, credit where it's due:
Sound - Joe & Simon
Lighting - Martin
IT - Paul & Sam
Loading and unloading in the pitch black and pouring rain - everybody!!!

Oh, and PLEASE can that elusive singer/guitarist/frontman make himself known????
I don't mind talking between songs, but I'm one of nature's backing singers and it shows when I try and sing lead...

I really need to consult with Sir Peter about this but in case you fine people didn't know, the Billericay gig was recorded in its entirety; including SoC!

And what a great recording it is. Perhaps it may be possible to... well, I'll make no promises here but maybe it could be made available in some way or other. Watch this space.

Was this recording made on ATF's desk or on a mobile device?

If it was made on the bands desk it would be great and would be prepared to shell out some coinage...

But i doubt it

The recording Rik's talking about was on a mobile device from just in front of the mixing position.
I did have a recording running from the desk, but generally it's usable only for archive since it's mixed for the audience rather than the recording and the two are not the same.
HOWEVER...I wonder what would happen if we mixed the two recordings? Rik, what do you think? Worth a try?

YES!  I'll gladly fork out.  Go for it (pretty please?)
