23 January 2020

A very cold evening still resulted in a full hall of the lovely and not-so-lovely (Ed’s words), the anxious (waiting for DVDs) and the ones with smelly feet (also Ed’s words). Seriously. I don’t make this stuff up you know. 

We warmed up with Wild West Hero in order to make good use of our limited time together each week. We started when the choir master had retrieved his copy of the lyrics sheet from the person who stole them. 

We worked on harmony parts, wished for coconuts, sang it through again trying to be ready for the bits that overlap. Perhaps the kazoos could come out of handbags again?

Jack popped the official choir website up on Facebook he screen to remind us of concert dates again it being only the second week back. We have been in the Echo this week advertising our good selves, and here is the cutting that got passed forward. 



Then we whipped out our Andrew Lloyd Webber Medley which will be henceforth known as the ALW Medley because it’s not such a mouthful to type.  This needs to be concert ready for March 7th guys! 

We broke it down. And no one broke down. We worked on it a long time, sorting out parts, and erasing slides. And well. March is a long way away ... Ed has seen some improvement and kindly let us know. 

Next Shine which was once performed on stage by a wee bunch of men-and-women-who-sing-like-men like 100 years ago. 

Next either act like a fine Weymouth seagull or sing your way through Speed Bonny Boat our final song was the hymn My Song Is Love Unknown. 

Well done DFS, not only are you on a par with tea and coffee but you are a proper lovely choir too. Now put this blog down and practice ALW ..... love you x
