The lgb choir from one of Leeds' twin cities, Dortmund, is coming to
sing with us.

They're called "Sang und Klang: los!", which is almost as witty a pun as
our own name and translates as badly as I assume ours would into German.
They specialise in the music of Friedrich Hollaender, best known over
here for Falling in Love Again, and I'm particularly looking forward to
hearing their version of HoJoHoToHo which isn't by Wagner at all. Check
them out at http://dortmund.gay-web.de/sangundklanglos/

It's all happening on Saturday October 20th. I'm afraid you won't all be
able to join us for a cup of tea and a bun with the civic dignitaries,
but we'll be singing alfresco sets in Dortmund Square (at the top of
Allder's department store on the Headrow in Leeds city of Leeds) and
there's an evening concert called <fx: roll of drums> Twin Sets in Leeds
Uni's Conference Auditorium at 7:30. Tickets are £7.50 / £5.00
concessions from any choir member or on the door if there's any left (or
you could reserve tickets by e-mailing me).

It should be, look I've got to get this out of my system, a /pearl/ of
an evening. Twin cities. Groups of songs are called sets. Twin. Sets.
And Pearls. Geddit? Oh, please yourselves then.
