    I play guitar for our youth group from like 15-19. Im a metal head/pop punk/emo. Me and 3 different drummers we had all liked the same music. So when we had a more up beat song, you better believe we had some half time stuff. One of staff members laughed so hard the first time we did it. And one night he was really into it and started head banging. One of the drummers said he saw the pastor head bang one night. The shit i got away with on guitar was great. I some how convinced the music leader that drop c was a great tune.
