Well I spent the entire afternoon and evening yesterday listening to MRW tapes trying to find something interesting (or just not so bad I didn't want anyone to hear it) to post. I think I've succeeded, and hopefully you'll agree. The tape that this jam came from wasn't labled, and I'm just really guessing from the lineup about what year it was recorded. It sounds like this practice took place right after Chris Barlow had joined MRW on keyboards. We had also just recently added Jamison Wooley… read more

Today's update comes from one of the first practices Reflections of Glory had after Ken Chrismon joined the band on bass.

Finally! It took me a couple days but as promised here is a little something from a Wednesday night youth service from 2000. This is the original MRW lineup with Andrew Parker on drums. Again, you'll have to forgive the quality of the recording. We used to record everything the band played onto a 4 track cassette recorder. Track one was the feed coming off of the soundboard and is exactly what the crowd heard. Track 2 was a 4 mic mix of the drum set, fed directly to the recorder (It was a sma… read more

As I was cleaning out the playlist to make room for more music, I realized I had completly neglected one band in all my postings, so I've put up this recording in an effort to change that. This is a recording of the last band I was a part of, Timmy The Sherpa, done by Show Production students at Full Sail Live (Part of Full Sail Real World Education in Winter Park Florida). The idea is that a band comes into the venue and within 4 hours the Sho-Pro lab group loads the equipment in, sets up th… read more
