Grizzly Dave Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Well, while back in a thread right here in the Saloon I said I was going to sing O Holy Night in church on Christmas day. Well, several of you all asked me to take a video so you could make fun of me, er, so you could hear me sing. Be careful what you ask for. I would have been self-conscious having a video taken during the service, so daughter Grizz took one today while I was practicing. Now I have an average voice at best, and today at practice it was a bit off due to scratchy throat after spending yesterday on the snow blower, but at any rate, here ya go. And if your ears ain't bleeding yet... Merry Christmas to all my SASS pards and pardettes! Grizz
JD Trampas, SASS # 55781 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 You did better than I could, I don't have a voice at all, flunked music when in school, but never planned on being a singer anyway, I think you did good Merry Christmas to you and your family All for now JD Trampas
Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Just got done listening - Grizz, you sounded strong and proud....fantastic! Thank you for sharing that : MERRY CHRISTMAS pard! GG ~
Grizzly Dave Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 I only sing in church, I figure if God could use a donkey, he can probably use me some too.
Grumpy Old Man Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 You did good Griz. I couldn't even attempt that. I'm tone deaf, color blind, and I got no rythym.
Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I only sing in church, I figure if God could use a donkey, he can probably use me some too. I would be honored to be God's donkey.... GG ~
Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 I thought it was very nice. As for my own singing I am very thankful the Lord said "make a joyful noise" rather than "try to keep it on key" Way to go Griz! Very Merry Christmas to you and yours! Regards Gateway Kid For today a Savior is born to us!!
Complicated Lady Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Thank you for sharing with us. Your giving spirit blesses us. May God continue to bless you Grizz!
Subdeacon Joe Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Damn! You look like my long lost evil twin step-brother, Grizz! My wife did a double take. But they won't let me sing in church unless I'm the only one there besides the priest. Someone has to at least chant the responses. And you sound great.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Good job, Grizz. Does your church have a choir or are you "it"?
Grizzly Dave Posted December 24, 2011 Author Posted December 24, 2011 We have had a choir at times, but not at present. There are several of us who do solos and several small groups from time to time.
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Our choir sounds a lot better since I left it.
Uno Mas SASS #80082 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 The Monsignor has specifically prohibited me from "Making a Joyful Noise." He and the Lord don't want to hear it. And Clamity won't let me sing in the shower. It scares the dogs. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the finest pards anywhere! .
Calamity Kris Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Thank you for sharing with us. Your giving spirit blesses us. May God continue to bless you Grizz! +1
Flint McCloud 3103L Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. You did us all proud, amigo... Many thanks for sharing that... Vaya con Dios
Calamity Kris Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 And Clamity won't let me sing in the shower. Honey, I told you I ran out of tune-a bags a long time ago. I haven't seen them in YEARS!!! Especially the long handled ones....... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the finest pards anywhere! I'll sing to that!!!!
Subdeacon Joe Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Honey, I told you I ran out of tune-a bags a long time ago. I haven't seen them in YEARS!!! Especially the long handled ones....... I'll sing to that!!!! That's it! I sing like a tuna!

Grizzly Dave Posted December 26, 2011 Author Posted December 26, 2011 Thanks again for the kind words. It went very well this morning, felt like it sounded much better than in practice, which is a good thing. Grizz
Paladin Gun For Hire Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Grizz, I be proud to stand beside ya and sing along, but then it wouldn't sound so good.
Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted December 26, 2011 Posted December 26, 2011 Thanks again for all the kind words! Merry Christmas! And the usual insult from Okie -- Whars the brain bleach?!
Grizzly Dave Posted December 27, 2011 Author Posted December 27, 2011 Thanks Okie, if you didn't insult me I'd think you didn't like me!
