    Default Concert in Hamilton Sat, 27 Aug (I'm in it)

    Hi guys,

    I know I have been gone for several months. Sorry, that's a long story that I'll catch everyone up on soon. Still in Auckland though, despite tough start.

    Writing now to announce a concert in Hamilton on Sat, 27 Aug by Pride of Auckland Chorus and the Stellar Singers.

    Time
    Saturday, August 27 · 7:00pm
    Location
    Dr John Gallagher Concert Chamber, Hamilton

    These are 2 very good a cappella groups I sing with.

    Pride of Auckland is a ~30-voice male a cappella group. We sing choral, jazz, contemporary, and barbershop. Group came in first in all the Pacific in 2008 competition.

    Stellar Singers is ~20 voice male and female a cappella group. Similar style leaning more toward the jazz side.

    FYI, I'm not in the photo on the link, but will be at the show. I'm the red-haired old guy (48).

    Hope y'all can make it. Both groups are seriously good (or maybe I should say "mean, aye").

    Look forward to catching everyone up with my move soon

    I guess I should add in some samples of our performances too.

    Here's a couple of examples that were on TV over the past couple of years
    - Tagata Pasifika (2010) – Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer – - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noi1v...eature=related
    - Style Pasifika (2009) – Various songs - http://www.nzonscreen.com/title/style-pasifika-2009 (see Clip #4 at 4:37 onward. Choice of clips is to the right of the video window)

    Sounds good! - but too far!

    When will you be in our region?

    Dunedin? That is a bit of a haul. Don't know, but definitely will keep you posted if we do.

    Yep, good on you to know that (or to figure it out)!

    Yes please, we like it. And most often we really enjoy it - and don't sit critically in the auditorium. That's always the problem when you are kind of both: (Previously) Presenter and (now) receptor.
