Jazz choir Rising Stars info

Hey girls!  Here is the info re: Rising Stars, as promised:

Dress rehearsal = Thursday, March 5th @ 5:30pm @ the Rawlinson
Performance = Friday, March 6th @ 7:00pm @ the Rawlinson (BE THERE AT 6:00PM)

As usual, I will have the pashminas and you will dress in all black.  Please wear dress pants if you have them rather than Lululemons, as they just look more professional onstage.  Please make sure that your shirts, socks, shoes, etc. are, in fact, all black (please no funky shoelaces, logos on your shirts, etc.).  If I can avoid wearing Spongebob socks for one day, so can you! :o)

Thanks girls - I'm looking forward to the show.

Also, for your entertainment, here is my dear friend Danny Fong singing in a fabulous multi-track recording of a Vocal Spectrum transcription called "As Long As I'm Singin'" (SEE, I'm not the only person who does stuff like this!!!!  Haha.)  Danny is a friend of mine from Greystone Singers and he's studying in Toronto now, and doing a ton of barbershop.  Enjoy! :o)

Hey Teaching Unit 1!! :P (SOrry I had too :-D )

Okay I've got a question: How long do you think the dress rehearsal is going to take on Thursday?

Wow..... I'm not sure I can stand not wearing Spongebob socks for like a WHOLE day.... that might like throw of my sock rotation or something :P Okay what?? Yeah that was really nerdy.... so moving on :P

Just for the record your friend is also extremely amazing, but you singing the choir music with yourself still makes you a music geek :P But you know I still love you :) <3

I'm not sure how long the dress rehearsal will take on Thursday - if it makes any difference, our rehearsal will be very short on Thursday after school (just long enough to go over those few vocal parts in "I've Got the Music In Me" and to run the choreography a couple times for security). I'm guessing maybe an hour and a half to 2 hours for the dress rehearsal? I really don't know though, so plan to be there for as long as it takes.
