Should The Musicians Where Robes during Service?
« on: August 03, 2006, 12:13:55 AM »
This has become a big debate, should musicians where robes during service.

Some choirs say yes and some say no!

What do you think?

All I have to say in slow motion "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooo oo". lol I dont like wearing robes depending on how they are made they can get in the way. ie A drummer wearing a robe or a organ player. It get caught on your foot depending on how long it is.

Well in our church the musicians are part of the choir and if the choir wears robes the entire choir wears robes which means musicians included.... :).....Although we do not wear the robes during all services, it really does depend on the occasion.

I don't care either way.  I don't have to wear one now, but if I do when we get our new ones, then I will.  No different than wearing a long skirt on the drums/organ.

NAW MAN!!!!! As long as the musicians are dressed decently and in order, we shouldn't have to wear robes. It's too hot in FLAWDA to be wearin a robe!! (Although I do feel for the choir members)!!

I aint wearing no robe lol. I think if the musicians are unified then that is good enough. Plus I cant see them trying to groove with it on.

Well, I wear my Robe. But, I don't have to wear one. Sometimes when It is hot (AC out) and/or I have a lot of songs to play I don't.

I TOTALLY AGREE!!!! I am a female drummer and I will not wear a robe even when I wear bell bottoms slacks they get caught on the pedal and I would pass out in the robes, they just look hot!! The is why I didnt sing in the choir EVER!!! even b4 I started to play.
Be blessed

I say " NO',it would just be in the way,"BUT",i do think some musicians need to take what they are wearing mo seriously.Not a hat backward,or jeans,tims,etc..., they should try to match the chiors colors.

I TOTALLY agree with you.  Some musicians I know, just come dressed like they are fresh out of the bed or basketball court.  I am not a musician, but I think that playing with a robe on would be very uncomfortable. So to answer the question, NO.  However, I do think that all the musicians should be unified when they are playing.

I would rather wear a robe than to hear someone complain about what I have on. For exapmle, I don't want to wear a skirt every Sunday but in the church I am play at all females must wear skirts. Well, if I have on a robe than it won't matter whether I have on a skirt or pants. As long as I am unified with the choir.

I do have this problem though. Why is it that people in the congregation are always looking at what the MOM or organist has on. What about the bass players and the percussionists???

If I'm in the congregation and everyone, choir and musicians,  is wearing robes it does look very nice  ;D

However I think robes  should be optional for the musicians because a robe could get in their way, or maybe they could get too hot.
