wall-to-wall fff, but nothing more than rudimentary bass pitches...

This church - for several years - did a 4th of July flagwaver at a Memphis Depression-era built (make-work project) "shell" outdoor concert venue.

For the church members, the dress rehearsal was always the night before in the church sanctuary.

Here's a screenshot of the "shell" concert from the next day (thankfully, no organ)
OH YEAH: Also, don't rename your Depression-era built shell after some different schmuck every few years, either.
