But I gotta say that it's almost chill-making to be in a convention room with about 400 Sweet Adelines from 30 different choruses in a widespread region when somebody starts a song, and they all join in in perfect 4-part harmony!
I was in St. Louis about 20 years ago during one of the international barbershop convention/competitions. In between quartet acts, when the judges were judging, the who crowd of *thousands* starting singing the same tune, same arrangement. Pretty amazing!
(I got tickets to the event the day before *in* the St. Louis arch, when my then-SO and I coaxed a song out of the conventioneers who were in the arch with us. And no, they weren't carrying their music with them!).
