Jonathan, what about the music in a weekend? What sort of music will the band be playing in the different festivals and meetings that we hold?
27:39
Well, it's kind of a bit of a timely discussion because obviously I've been reflecting a lot on what an ISB weekend is and should be or could be.
27:50
And Harry's kind of outlined, I suppose, the three things that are fairly consistent, which is we offer a Saturday night concert or festival, as you might call it, Sunday morning worship, Sunday afternoon, call it concert, call it worship, worship concert, whatever you want to call it on Sunday afternoon.
28:10
And when we, and I'm learning a lot about how the band works behind the scenes, the things that I just didn't know.
28:18
But when a core invites us, we will say that we'll come and do those things.
28:23
But also we do write and say we will offer a number of other things that are available to core.
28:29
And I would want core that are inviting us to know this, that the kind of the concerts and the Sunday morning worship is, is your baseline offer, if you like, from the ISB.
