PA gear for churches
Some brief and general hints for church PA stuff. For foldback I’d go mackie powered speakers SRM350. They can then double up for events like men’s nights offsite, […]
Death by Meeting
This article was thought provoking. I’m not sure what do to with it but I’m putting it here to keep me thinking about it. I hate boring meetings, […]
