Andrea Danford lord my grandma was at church every time the doors were open lol she went to all services God rest her soul. Lol now I’m doing the same thing ain’t nothing like God’s Presence.
These use to be the good ole days! Marching in was the best part. Especially when they use to be stopping and waving at everyone lol or that one person who was always off and the person behind them trying to help them stagger the March in! One thing I really miss about old school church was all the holiday programs the youth would do. That was one of the best things I remember doing or VBS!!!
Ricky could have just made a church tour you know how many churches is in need of revival and I mean laughter is medicine he would be a millionaire off that bruh
When he said the older people be on the upbeat an looking at u sideways I can relate sooooo well I play the drums and I'm not even 16 yet so u know they be looking at me all kinds of ways
I can relate as well, I'm a musician at church (I'm the keyboardist of the church), and this video literally explains what I have to deal with almost every Sunday!
Jon Brown Lol facts! I always tried to refrain from playing the drums when the Hymn Choir sang. Some would clap & sang off beat, the song leader would have they own beat, & then they would look at me all sideways
I totally understand what Ricky is talking about. I just experience this situation this Sunday with one of the mothers of the church singing on the up beat, and we are trying to play on the down beat. She was all into the song ain't paying no attention to what we are doing and we were supposed to follow her. lol.
It's 2021, I miss the Choir marching. Church started with a slow jam like, Holy holy holy Lord God almighty... Then by offering time we'd kick it up a notch and march to something like When we all get to heaven or Caught up to meet him... (fast pace) We got our strut, shout, dance, march, and how you doin, all in at the same time. (Oh the memories) This made me smile today... 8/22/21 🙏🏾🤣❤❤❤
Boy you got it down to the tea! lmbo. Wow do i remember my ushers marching in! This was the highlights of the services ! I miss good ole church! I love my dear church. I must pay a visit New Hope Baptist Church Milledgeville georgia.
I can’t stop laughing Rickey smiley is something else he is funny especially when he start singing. But he telling the truth about what happen in the choir but that audience and everybody need a good laugh 😂😂😂😂💀💀💀☠️☠️☠️
Love Ricky to death. He’s had me laughing since I discovered BET comic View at a young age. The musicians are great in this video. They way they start and stop on key really shows their talent.
i play drums in the church band and the elders could never keep time. the band and I will always have to adjust. there's never playing a song smoothly. we laugh about all the time.
FORGIVE ME GOD.... it's 5am, and I INTENDED to LISTEN to some 'GOD' OLE GOSPEL MUSIC as a LEAD IN to a SERMON as I DO EVERYDAY once it's TIME for ME to START a NEW DAY when I SAW MY FAVORITE 'ON-AIR' RADIO 'PERSONALITY' as a SUGGESTION....I KNOW that 'YOU' UNDERSTAND because 'YOU' 'TAUGHT' ME that "LAUGHTER is 'GOD' MEDICINE", and I 'BELIEVE' that the BREAST CANCER that I was DIAGNOSED with MARCH 5, 2021-just 10 MONTHS after a GOLFBALL SIZED NON CANCEROUS MENINGIOMA TUMOR was REMOVED from 'MY' BRAIN on MAY 26, 2020 is LEAVING, if not has LEFT 'MY' BODY because of 'THIS' type of MEDICINE and NOT the CHEMOTHERAPY that I REFUSE to RECEIVE! THANK 'YOU' 'MOTHER' GOD!
I know what it was like back in the day growing up in the 80's and 90's attending the apostolic churches. If you were not already in the sanctuary you couldn't go in until the choir had been seated. I remember one time me and my family were out in the lobby for almost 25 minutes. If you were already in the sanctuary, you had to stand as if they were the kings and queens of the church. Nobody ever stood up for the kids choir. I was like that ain fair. When we sung no one stood or clapped :-( SMH
This is so true Ican remember some of the older members who have gone on to be with the lord ,but BOY BOY BOY AS A YOUNGSTER WE WOULD LAUGH AT THEM MORE THAN ANYTHING ,UNTIL THEY WOULD COME AND SEPARATE US.I REALLY MISS THOSE DAYS.
Rickey is like one of those guys in school that's funny and has a lot of friends but not a girlfriend. Then he fills out and you see him like now who dis? He fine as wine now!!!!
HE WAS ON POINT WITH THE OLDER CHOIR WOMEN MARCHING IN! TO THE TEE! I CAN'T DEAL WITH RICKEY OR BERNICE JENKINS THESE DAYS! ROTFLMAO!!! WOO FORGIVE ME SWEET JESUS (IN RICKEY VOICE)
OOOOOOO I used to play & God knows he is tellin the truth!!! 😭🤣 you could NEVER keep up!! 😞👀🙄 And oh Jesus...don't let it be a 3 o'clock program & the choir wanted to show out for the visiting churches-they would take FOREVER! 😅
Love this right here. Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
I remember playing the piano as young kid & my sister on the drums and older ppl would sing.. this is so true lol... we had to learn to adapt lol... & don’t let me know a few chords too smh it’s over
from a musician’s standpoint, I feel him. at least within those years, I learned to kinda catch on. like, I’ll give em a few seconds, just so I can listen, see where they at, then once I know, I’ll pick up. at least if it’s simple enough where there are basics, then we can work with it.
Rickey was not shaking his butt at the crowd. His elderly lady character was fussing at the key board player. The musicians are behind the black drape! Pay attention!
10yrs later STILL cry laughing🤣🤣
You can tell Ricky grew up in church! 😂😂🙌🏾❤️
He is speaking the truth lol some of the funniest things happen in church
Jazz McGinnis YES YES LORD!!!!😭😂😭😂
