September 4th, 2010 Say what you will about a cappella, it’s portrayal in digital media is rarely flattering, but we consistently have the best and most loyal fans (take that Emo and Bluegrass!). I read of Justin Timberlake being booed off the stage in Canada and of objects being thrown at Lady Gaga, of country stars who can stand on their head while singing and still not be noticed, of amazing musicians toiling in obscurity for their art peppering the streets on NY, LA, and Nashville. Why are we any different? Because of you. True, in the past decade we did have a woman sit in the front row of a show in IA with headphones listening to her “favorite group” (obviously not us) and this past weekend at the MN State Fair we did have a gentleman read the paper from front to back during our entire set, but the former had her rods and cones mixed up and the latter was probably filming a new Parisian reality show on rude behavior in public settings. In either case, our experience has been almost perfectly wondrous. And today, I thank you for that memory and that experience. shaun
September 3rd, 2010 State fair, done. August, done. Summer? Pretty much done. What does that mean for your intrepid acappella adventurers? It means we’ll be on the road quite a bit in September! No kidding! Why don’t I tell you a bit about it! !!!!!!!!!! Let’s start with next week. Tuesday we head to Menomonie, WI, then the next day we head to Warsaw, IN for a workshop/show there which will happen on the 9th . After which we head towards Indianapolis for a weekend at the Midwest Arts Showcase culminating in a few performances that will wrap up the night of Monday the 13th…..drive back home on the 14th, then back out to Ohio on the 17th (just enough time to do laundry and see the fam), then it’s Pork Festival time with a show interspersed on Saturday the 18th at Vincennes University for Family Weekend, then back to the Pork Festival for 2 more shows on Sunday…..then, time to head for home! After more laundry and a couple nights in our own beds, we fly out to Florida on the 22nd for a corporate event on the 23rd, fly back on the 24th for a show at St. Ben’s, head to Winona on the 25th for a show at Winona State, take Sunday off, then head to Brainerd for a corporate event on the 27th…….. This, my friends, is how we like to kick off the fall, and it helps get us “in shape” for the upcoming holiday tour, which, crazily enough, is just around the corner! Get your tickets now! Right? Right! I better go do my laundry. Greg
