That was so not cool !
Number of singers and musicians : about 400
Number of enraptured audience participants : about 2 ( give or take )
That ambulance outside didn't help either ...
Give them an inch and the audience is off with flashing blue lights and a bit of a sniffle.
We had to wear 'smart' black and my 80's kecks were far too shiny, and my work trews were far too long as we had to walk in trainers up to the Phil , so I got a pair of what can only be descibed as 'tuxedo bondage trousers ' from the local Cottage-Hospital charriddy shop ...
Just in time... and they go nicely with my 50p strappy shoes.
Community singing is very odd...emotional ...
There was the glossy haired posh girl's school choir in their vestements (who've sung in Praaaaag and Viennaaah in complex harmonies ) and fainted one by one...
And there were the snotty-nosed, rumple-shirted kids from scallyshire ( who handled sitting around for four hours much better than could be expected )... who just loved it
And despite being a considerably smaller choir with a rather short and funereal set, we got the most laughs and more 'More's!' than anybody else...
So...
Those distractional pole-dancing lessons did come in handy after all !
Just Loved It !!
I've been such a happy bunny today !
