The Church Tech's Walk of Shame

Church Production Magazine: Channel light? On. Fader? It's up. Is he wearing his headset? Yup. RF? Nada. Is the pack on? Ugh. In the loudest silent stare possible, you glance at whoever's job it was to change out the batteries. And in one quick swipe, the drawer slides open, you reach for the spare body pack, only to remember it's still not working from the last time this happened, even though you had the best intentions of sending it right in for repairs. So you grab two AA Procell's—four to be safe—and thus begins, “The Walk of Shame,” those 50 steps from the sound booth to the stage that take only 20 seconds, but feel like an eternity.
