Wow! Singing Valentines!
OK, here’s something you want to do next year for somebody special…
The wife and I had a dinner party for some friends on Saturday night (fondue! very retro and festive), and about an hour into the festivities, a knock came a rappin’ at the front door.
In come four lovely ladies in black slacks and sparkly red sweaters, and they had a song in their hearts and entertainment on their minds. Turns out one of the friends we had over for dinner had secretly arranged a singing valentine for the party!
They were a quartet called Wild Blue Yonder, so named because they all have some sort of Air Force connection. They know each other as members of the Gem City Chorus, the great local female barbershop singing collaborative.
And they were fabulous! They stood in the living room as the group of us sat and were wonderfully entertained by their delicious, swoony four-part harmony and exuberant showmanship. Even our normally barky dogs were transfixed.
Three romantic, sweet songs later, a nice evening was even nicer. Info on hiring the group is available at the website… think about it next year! You won’t be sorry.
