So... is this the part where I say hi?
Hi!
My name's Jacob. Or TheSpoonMan, due to my unparalelled mastery of the spoons (uh... sorta). I play them decently, and whistle almost-decently, as well as random other woodwinds (and harmonica and mandolin). Nothing very well, despite what people tell me. I play music at church, celtic and otherwise (our worship team is like standard keyboard/guitar lineup plus tinwhistle/flute/harmonica. It's fun). Will be learning bagpipes hopefully. And... that is me.

Welcome, mate.
That all sounds familiar.I am a jack of many instruments yet master of none.
It's fun learning 'em though, innit?

And whether the blood be highland, lowland or no.
And whether the skin be black or white as the snow.
Of kith and of kin we are one, be it right, be it wrong.
As long as our hearts beat true to the lilt of a song.

I used to practice at spoon playing, but my parakeet gained a mastery of the sound, and nobody could tell the difference.

It may have started around the time people began to realize that putting full-fledged organs in fledgling churches was prohibitively expensive.Walden wrote: When did the standard lineup cease to be organ and organ?
But it also seems that a departure from How Great Thou Art is becoming common. Never seen spoons in church though.
Yes. This is the part where you say hi.
And this is the part where we warn you to put on your flak jacket before venturing into the rubber room, aka the controversial topic forum.

You mean they don't go to all the services? My grandparents always went to every service.

Hello, Jacob! Don't mind these guys...we're all a little off here from time to time (well, I'm not, but I pretend to be so no one feels badly) At any rate, welcome to the Pub. Have a pint (I hear that Slude Dood is buying this time around )
