Dan loves music.
Really.
If you ask him he will tell you that he loves music
more than the average person.
(he also thinks he's an above average driver, lol)
Dan adores his iPod. He loves to blast music when he is running/lifting weights/driving/working in the garage, etc. He craves family sing-a-longs, and has fond memories of singing in the high school choir.
Despite all this, I got a really good laugh when a member of our bishopric called him to lead the music in our ward's Sacrament meeting.
I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when he called him to direct the ward choir.
I think Dan went into shock. I tried to console him, but I was too busy laughing.
His only consolation is that he gets to put the numbers up for the Hymns each week.

I love hearing this story. It makes me laugh everytime!! I could seriously hear it everyday and I would never get bored of it!!
Good times!
You go, Dan!!! I have some great choir music you could try. I have a Christmas program already put together. :) I actually get to teach a stake choir director workshop next Saturday. Fun stuff.
LOL! I had that SAME calling when I was 14 (our ward was pretty small in West Virginia!) and I loved it! But it cracks me up that Dan has that calling!
Cindi,
Come and move into our ward please!?! There are a few homes for sale!
You could be the Choir leader and I will dutifully put the numbers up each week.
Emily, you and mike could move in and take charge of leading the music since you already are a pro at it.
Perfect! I have only been the ward music chairman for 5 days and I have it all figured out! Anyone else want to get involved? We could finish a room in our basement as long as you can give a brother a hand on Sunday...
That is so funny! He lifts weights hun? Ha Ha maybe I will come visit your ward if they put on a program!
When Dan called and told me this, I laughed so hard that I cried. I kept laughing through the whole story and finally he said, "Can you stop laughing!" I always thought I got the wrong gender callings and that is so funny that now he has one.
Dan: Yesterday I went to Burt Murdock and it was all I could do to not buy you one of those fancy leading sticks. Good luck!
Congrats Dan!! Nicole- why didn't you tell me this when I saw you the other day???
