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)
