Weekend preview: yuletide edition
We’ve got an action-packed weekend planned: tonight we’re going to see Chanticleer in concert at George Mason University. We saw them there last year, and there’s nothing like great music to get you in the holiday spirit. Based in San Francisco, Chanticleer gives many of their concerts in the Bay Area, including two venues at my alma maters: Memorial Church at Stanford, and St. Ignatius Church, where my high school holds its graduation. (One of Chanticleer’s notable venues on the road is the Medieval Sculpture Hall at the Met; their Christmas concert there a couple of years ago was filmed for PBS and is available on DVD.)
Tomorrow we’re off to the Hampton Roads area for a holiday party at Gretchyn and Sheldon’s, where we’ll be staying the night as well. And then Sunday we’re back in town for the Gay Men’s Chorus concert, “Men in Tights: A Pink Nutcracker,” at the Lincoln Theatre. Have a great weekend, kids!

I loooooove Chanticleer and would love to hear them in concert. That sounds like lots of fun. And so does the rest of your weekend! Yippee! :)
I saw Marie Osmond at Disneyland this Saturday, during a candlelight ceremony. Part of me wishes I could have seen your choice of concerts, though. Details are necessary! Slight ones, in the least.
Hope you had a good ‘un, and are staying warm.
I love Chanticleer as well. My college chorus actually hosted a concert of theirs once, and we got to hang out with all of them at a bar afterwards and sing the Biebl Ave Maria together. A terrific night.
