[atlantaprog] Re: Fwd: Hastings Riverside Showchoir

This is what I was referring to earlier-- as shockingly bad as it is in an 
"cloned army of Osmonds" way, it could be much worse.  They could have done an 
interpretive dance to Kenny G's 'Songbird" for instance... at least they chose 
a good song, and were pretty tight on it.  
   
  But if these kids really want to do it justice, they should perform ON ICE, 
while wearing capes and eating curry, or perhaps the 
mullet-and-nut-hugging-kimono look Rush espoused circa '76 would work...

  Roundabout- Hastings Riverside Company Showchoir 2006

Maybe I'm alone here, but I think it's really cool that a group of people 
who probably don't know a damn thing about "Progressive" music took the time 
to arrange one of the few hits of the genre into a piece more in line with 
that THEY like to do.

As for shaming Yes into a new album or Jon Anderson going out to ?buy a 
grave--a nice, fancy one--and roll in it. A lot.? Have you guys seen the 
video for ?Don?t Kill the Whale?? Have you seen the way Chris Squire 
dresses on stage? Have you ever listened to Jon Anderson talk...about 
pretty much anything? He's a pretty positive guy most of the time. This 
version of roundabout wouldn?t embarrass the guys in Yes, they would see it 
as the tribute that it is and appreciate the effort? hell, they'd probably 
even enjoy the show. I know if someone ever took the time to arrange and 
choreograph one of my songs I?d think it was totally cool.
