ICCA

Just got back from the ICCA finals (International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella) in Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center. Woo hoo! Great fun. The groups were all fantastic. I'm new to this scene so it was my first time seeing a live performance - up until now, I'd just been listening to the AcappellaU podcast and more recently, Acapodcast. During intermission I had the pleasure of meeting Joey C., the host of AcappellaU. Half our party didn't turn up, so two of the guys from Vocal Point of Brigham Young University (congrats, Champions!) sat next to us for most of the performance as they had performed first. The brush with fame for the day! Vocal Point started their set with a pitch perfect rendition of the Surround Sound thing you hear when you go to the movies. Tres cool. I wonder if that's on any of their cd's?
