We'll try any song we halfway think we can do (at weekly worship), but we always do these maybe-dodgy ones LAST-- after all the formalities. We'll introduce it as "here's a new one that's WAY too soon to try, let's see how it goes" or "you donpt know this next one and neither do we," and lustily launch right in.

Sometimes they wrok surprisingly well. If it goes down in flames, however, we just giggle over the last, lingering (wrong) note and the people join right in. I think only once have we just stopped mid-song and called it quits to try another, instead.

But then we're songleaders, not performers. :~) Our NAME furnishes the excuse: The Good News-Goodtime Band.
