I'll be there! And there may be a late Friday or Saturday night side-trip
to the Emerald Queen Casino to cheer for Marc Miller and the band he
recently joined.

I have read an interview with Jami Smith, one of the clinicians who is
leading a workshop on worship leading. I was very impressed with her
approach to worship. I plan to attend one of her sessions if I can.

Same for me. I can often worship to harmonically "simple" tunes with great
lyrics. But if the tune and the words don't "fit", or one or the other
seems wrong in some way, it can be distracting.
