It's the end of the world as we know it....
You know what they say, it's not over
till the fat lady sings.... guess what?

Yes, tomorrow is the big day... first Choir Concert - which is sold out... 450 seated and approx. 200 standing... and me and 250+ of my closest friends singing up a storm...
Sorry I've been a bit out of the loop this week... at rehearsal last Sunday I pulled a muscle in my back that has seen me very, very uncomfortable sitting, standing and lying down all week.. so I've limited my time on the computer...
Who knows what I'll be like tomorrow night after about 8 hours of standing... most of which will be singing... or at least pretending to sing... am still struggling a bit with the phrasing of one of the songs... so can expect a bit of mumbling and fudging tomorrow...
Some of the songs we are singing are so haunting beautiful that I cry when I sing them... so will be interesting to see what it's like tomorrow on stage... more like others will be crying at my singing!
Anyway, will promise to catch up with everyone soon...

I sing in a choir and I have a bad knee, and it's always surprising how much a standing-up performance can take out of you physically. So I hope your back makes it through ok. There always a large percentage of seniors in my choir, so I always figure if they can make it through the performance, so can I!
And I often can't get through different pieces of music that I find really beautiful without getting teary. That's when I'm glad I'm not a soloist.
