Lincoln Music Festival

A very enjoyable evening, with 6 quartets entering the contest, including Storm - one of the top two ladies quartets in Europe, so the winners were never in doubt.

We were placed third, but by an adjudicator who by her comments knew nothing about the Barbershop style of singing, so the whole thing was a bit of a lottery really. Anyway we had a good evening out and the crowd (who were far more knowledgeable about our style than the judge) seemed to really enjoy our two songs. This was very heartening as for the first time in this competition, we sang two "straight songs" (non comedy). Then it was back home, via the pub, to get ready for an all day coaching session with the Major Oak Chorus.

A singers work is never done............!!
