Re: [NZbbshop] Re: 'Four' may not be performing at 2005 NZABS convention

Fusion is
Tenor: Chris Hobbs (22ish)
Lead: Robbie Lane (31ish)
Baritone: yours truly (29ish)
Bass: Lee Matheson (umm.. 28ish????)

New combination this year as two of our singers left to go
overseas to pursue their dreams...

New singers, new songs - watch for us in Napier - come sing
something with us!!! (or even book us for a show!)

And yes, the web site needs updating with new photo's and
stuff - I'm in the middle of a new design to be updated
around convention time (if I get a chance)

Cheers,
Antony Currington
Baritone - Fusion
Musical Director - Harbour Capital Chrous
Wellington, New Zealand
