A bit "secular" though.... any disapproving looks from the clergy?

Yes I should really have stayed clear of those flattened 5ths :twisted:

The church is now owned by a heritage group so it's no longer a place of worship, the clergy have all gone.
It's funny, whenever I'm forced in church for weddings etc I always daydream about playing the guitar and making use of all that acoustic porential, so it was really nice to fulfill that particular daydream!

That sounds great. Do they rent it out or did you kick the door in?

They very kindly just let us use it.  We did some other music that they said they might use on their website or for some promotional stuff....

Nice one! I love that tone.

1 dislike on the vid though. Obviously somebody thought their church was being desecrated.

EDIT - just read that the church is no longer used for worship.

Very cool.

Though the oppertunity was there to get the fella hanging round on one of the bells, and kick out some AC/DC... That would have been awesome :)
