A memorial service will be held in Indianapolis this Saturday, Sept. 19, at 11 am at Christ Lutheran Church, 345 N. Kitley Ave.
 
Phil was truly dedicated to barbershop harmony and those in his chapters, the District and the Society were his closest family members.  If you are available on Saturday, please join with Circle City Sound in celebrating Phil's life, in this special service.
 
 
Please pass this information on to other current and former barbershoppers and their families.

Calling All Barbershoppers in the Cardinal District,

 

This email is to inform you that the documentary “American Harmony” will be airing at the Keystone Art Cinema in the mall at Keystone at the Crossing on the north side of Indianapolis beginning on Friday June 5, 2009.  The show runs through Thursday June 11, 2009.  The show times are 2:30, 5:00, 7:15 and 9:30 p.m. daily.

 

It is my hope to schedule a number of quartets to sing in the lobby of the theater and possibly the common areas of the Mall for as many performances as possible.  Indianapolis has several quartets but we will need a few more.  If your quartet would be available to sing would you please let me know as soon as possible?  Obviously the weekend of the 5th, 6th and 7th are going to be the easiest spots to fill.  If your quartet would be available for the matinee or evening shows during the week please contact me immediately.   We are eager for the best quartets in the district to represent us.  The music team of the Indy chapter will review all requests and provide you a response.

 

Ticket prices are as follows:

 

Matinees (anything starting before 6pm) - $6.50

Adults - $9.50

Seniors (62+) - $6.50 all the time

Kids (11 & under) - $6.50 all the time

 

 

Tickets are on sale now and may be purchased through the Indy chapter or directly from the theater.  Please let me know if you would like to purchase a block of tickets.

 

Unfortunately the company that has produced this wonderful film does not have much money to be able to promote the film.  If anyone reading this email has any ideas about how we can get the word out without spending much money please contact me immediately.  I would love to see the theater packed for as many showings as possible.  I am hopeful that many people who have never been exposed to barbershop will view the movie and discover the same thing that I have discovered about this great hobby of ours.

 

I would also appreciate it if the chorus managers could let me know how many from your chapter are planning on making it to Indy to see the film.  Thank you for your response.

Hey there geltleman.  The Indianapolis chapter is haveing their Annual show on
Saturday June 13th.  There will be a 2:30 p.m. show and another show at 7:30
p.m.  The reason I am posting this is CCS Needs you help.  The show is called
live from the flamingo lounge.  We thought that it would be cool and add some
touch if we som classic 1950's or 1960's hot rods, street rods, or rat rods.  We
would be interested in a few.  In return we would allow for some comp tickets
(2) for you to see the show.  If you could pleases email me a icture of your car
and some contact infor so that we can get something taken care of.  It would be
a great time and greatly appreciated.  Thank You!!!

Hey y'all,

The Thoroughbreds are planning on hosting the screening of American Harmony in the Louisville area. If you haven't heard about this awesome movie about our great hobby, well you probably live under a rock someplace, but here's the web address http://www.americanharmonythemovie.com/ where you can learn all about it and see a trailer of the movie. This movie has already won several awards and it really hasn't even been released yet.

If you think you would like to view a screening of the movie, in the Louisville area, please send me an email at edtenor@... and let me know how many people to plan on. The more the merrier! Ask everyone you know.  The dates and times have not been announced yet but if you let me know you're interested, I'll send you all the details as soon as we have them.

American Harmony, the movie! It's coming to a theater near you, soon!

Singcerely,

Does anyone know what time the back door to the high school will open on Saturday morning?

The contest starts at 10am, but it sure would be nice if those doors were unlocked much earlier.

Jerry, I was going to put a VLQ together with Brigade members who were not in the quartet contest.  However, I found that it is part of the chorus contest and not the quartet contest.  I felt we had enough going on during the chorus contest and dropped it.

My understanding is that there will also be a VLQ contest at this convention.  Entries are via the same CJ20 process.

I believe it is 13 March.
 
Try calling Aaron Dale.  You can find his # in Ebiz,
 
Or maybe check with Dave Duncan or Vogel.
 
It is not on the Registration page on the District website.

Why would it be? ;-)

I'm trying to get my quartet situated and we have had problems with Brian's renewal. I figured this would be easier/quicker, than checking with some of those guys.

Thanks Steve!

This Official Call is to alert you to the time and location of the meeting so that all delegates will have ample time to make arrangements to attend.  It is important that every chapter be represented at the House of Delegates so that the wishes of “Joe Barbershopper” can be heard and communicated to the Society by way of the District.

 

This meeting precedes the Spring Convention, which begins with the Quartet semi-finals and Senior Quartet Contest and Collegiate Contest on Friday night, followed by the District Plateau Chorus Contest on Saturday at 1:00 P.M.

 

A Chorus and/or Quartet Contest Entry Form must be submitted to District Director-C&J, Aaron Dale [aaronkdale@...] by March 13, 2009.  Requirements for participation in the contest include: All men who sing on the stage must be members in good standing of the Society and MUST purchase a complete convention registration.

If you, as the chapter delegate of record are unable to attend, please arrange to have a substitute and have him bring a letter confirming such replacement from the President of your chapter to the HOD Meeting and present it to the District Secretary prior to the meeting.

 

See you at the HOD!

 

Sing-cerely,

 

Greg

Summit City Chorus Announces New Meeting And Rehearsal Location


Fort Wayne — October 6 — The Summit City Chorus, Fort Wayne's premier
Barbershop men's group since 1944, announces that effective Monday,

rehearsal will be permanently held at Taylor Chapel United Methodist
Church, 10145 Maysville Road, on Fort Wayne's northeast side, at 7:00

Dear current and past members of the Thoroughbred Chorus,

Everything Old is New again!

Remember great rehearsals and fantastic shows? Remember singing tags
until all hours? Remember the thrill of contest and the satisfaction of
ringing a chord? Well, we're still doing all of that and more! On
Saturday December 6, 2008 the Thoroughbreds will be celebrating their
60th Annual Show at Memorial Auditorium here in Louisville and we'd
like you to be a part of that celebration. Actually, a very big part!

We're inviting everyone who has ever sung with us back to the stage
for the day (and a couple of rehearsals too!). You can relive, rejoice
and rejoin the Thoroughbreds in song for two not-soon-to-be-forgotten
performances. Interested? Want to know more? Here's how to find
out the rest of the story…

Please register, using the form on our web site at
http://www.thoroughbredchorus.com/reunion.htm
<http://www.thoroughbredchorus.com/reunion.htm> and join us on the
Annual Show. You will also be able to download all the most recent
information, including song selection, sheet music, learning CDs and
rehearsal schedule as they become available. We will also be asking for
all of your contact info. If you do not have access to the internet,
please mail your contact information to: The Thoroughbred Chorus, C/O
Eric Hunstiger, 10220 Grand Ave., Louisville, KY 40299. We will send
you information as it becomes available.

We need you to help us make this an event not to be missed and never to
be forgotten. So fly, drive, walk, crawl or do whatever you have to do,
just get back here and sing a few one more time!

This is not an attempt to recruit you to join the chorus again; although
we welcome anyone who is interested. We simply want to celebrate our
60th Annual Show.

Please pass this request to other Thoroughbreds you know so we can
contact them and let them know about this great celebration of
Thoroughbred heritage.

In Harmony,

Eric Hunstiger, President
David Duncan, Director
Don Schlader, Show committee Cochairman
Mike Ehringer, Show committee Cochairman

Looking forward to attending the Cardinal District convention in October.
Is there any news as to whether there is a QCA breakfast or supper???
Was also wondering if anyone knows if there is a shuttle that runs from the airport to the headquarters hotel.
Miss all my Cardinal friends and hoping to sing with each and every one of you.
Gaylord
