"Umm, no; I'm more of a rock 'n roll kinda guy."
We see Tim and most of our other liveaboard neighbors daily. We knew this was important to Tim, so today, we went to a "Barbershop Bonanza" at the local Community Theater building. For a town this small, this building is spectacular! It doesn't look too impressive from the exterior, but inside is a beautifully designed theater setting.
They have a slate of events scheduled for the summer - music, dance, and plays. Today, the entertainment was a local men's barbershop chorus, a barbershop quartet, and a local women's group (Sweet Adelines type). They were all good. After intermission, an international award-winning quartet performed... these guys were amazing! And, I did mention that I am definitely more of a rock 'n roll kinda guy, but some of their harmony gave me goose bumps. The final act was a women's group from Canada that rocked the place. Oh, it was beautiful harmony, but the music was definitely more modern, featuring current hits. It reminded me of the a capella TV show, The Sing Off. They had tight harmony and sharp choreography. The last two acts received standing ovations... and deserved it. It was a full house, and folks were enthusiastic in their response to the acts.
I'll get a few photos posted tomorrow (my computer is supposed to be back then).
When we came out of the theater, it was a beautiful sunny afternoon. And a great view of the harbor from the hill as we walked back to the boat.
We're settling into life in Friday Harbor.
