national anthem

Just a reminder that I'll be joining the tenor section of the Cleveland Athletic Club Singers to sing The Star-Spangled Banner on Friday. I don't think they always have the national anthem on TV, but in any case, the game will be televised on Fox Sports Ohio at 7:00 p.m.

As noted on my music page, I am now the accompanist for this group, which rehearses on Monday nights starting next week. They have two concerts: one in December and one in May. A few of my friends are in the group (that's how I got involved)... and it pays well. ;)

It was pretty cool. The stadium seems a lot smaller from down on the field. Aside from having no acoustics to help you hear the rest of the choir, I was in the back with no one directly next to me, so I could only really hear myself singing. I expected more distraction from the delay coming over the speakers, but it really wasn't a problem. Unfortunately, we didn't make it on TV, so there's no recording, but I'm told we did good. The fans down near the field even applauded us as we walked down the 3rd base line back to the exit.
