#CLUB100 || The Diary Game : Betterlife with Steem~~ Was invited for a musical concert (09/08/2022)

Before going to bed saturday evening, the leader of our brass band team called me asking if i'd be free the next day, that a program just came up and he need or would love me to go play the program with him, but i couldn't join him since the program will cause me to absent from church service and more over, a Gospel musical concert i have bee preparing for about a month now.

I went to bed, woke up around 6am with about 2 missed calls from him again and a text message still wanting me to join him, i still told him No. After replying him, i made up my bed, had my morning meditation, did some few house chores and prepared for church service. I didn't plan going to were i usually fellowship because of the concert i had to play there. So instead, i left my place and went to the church organizing the concert and by 9:30AM, I was there even thou service starts at 9AM.

After about 15minutes, i received a call from my pastor asking if i am in town and if yes, i should come to church right away. I was wondering what could be the program and so i went to see him and when i got to church, i realized that the sound system has been disconnected and no one to connect. The coordinator was coordinating church service without microphone and it was stressful

I started connected the instruments immediately while planning to ask the pastor at the end of service what actually happened that all instruments were disconnected . Took me about 30 minutes to set up everything and at the end, i couldn't leave the church since there was no one to play the drums.

I stayed back, played the drums for the whole service.

2pm church service was still going on whereas the concert i had to play there is starting at that same time. I was therefore forced to leave church half way for the concert.
Immediately i got there, everything was already set up and the sound engineer was doing sound balance and check. I remove my saxophone from its case, mounted it up, gave my saxophone mic to the engineer to connect so i can test my instrument.

After sound balance and check, the concert finally started by 3pm, the host choir invited about 3 different choirs, all dressed beautifully and the different choirs that were invited was giving 15 minutes each on stage.
The concert was amazing as i enjoyed every second of it and i was blessed by the different choirs that were singing.

The concert finally ended around 7pm, the organizers of the concert gave my envelop as i went home and called it a day
