Title
The Baden Street Singers were a huge mob of a cappella talented fun last year in Acapocalpse and this year they showed that they weren't resting on any laurels. With a number of games designed to put the singers to the most stringent tests - at the audience's very whim they came up aces every time.
First up, an audience member is given control of 5 lights - a scale of faster to slower. As the choir sings, the audience member hits the lights, slowing and speeding the choir at will. It's pretty funny to watch and hear.
Other activities involved using the lights to cut the various sections of the choir, nope, no bass wanted, whoops there go the trebles.
Some covers were requested with various singers volunteering to take them on, in various styles.
And my favourite -
A random chorist is selected via spinning the wheel and has 10 words thrown at them from the gleeful and on occassion positively malicious audience - "schadenfreude" "onomatopoeic" "antipodes" amongst the offerings. And, well, these people are skilled!
They also performed a couple of pieces for their opening and closing numbers. Lovely sound and lots of humour!
I must look out for these folks other performances.
10/10 superb and Postmodern Jukebox performing the Pinky and the Brain theme song on the Sid & Nancy Scale.
