To Our Guests, Welcome! 

We, of the Northshoremen chorus, are extremely happy to have you with us this evening, so that we may try to show you the joys and camaraderie of singing barbershop harmony.  We hope that if you have any questions, you will please ask one of us, and if we can’t answer them, we will be very happy to find somebody who can. If you do enjoy this evening, it will be our fondest wish that you will continue to visit with us in the future. Again, we say to you, WELCOME, any and every Wednesday evening. 

To our members, I bring greetings from former member, EVERETT BISHOP, who is now president of the Capitol City Chorus in Harrisburg, Pa. While there, I had the misfortune to miss the coaching session with both Dan Signor and Dan Washington here in Beverly, and I was a week early for a coaching session with Tony Derosa in Harrisburg. While there my bride and I went to BLUE BALLS, BIRD IN HAND, then to INTERCOURSE and then PARADISE. Now before we all get the wrong impression, I must explain that these are all towns in the Commonwealth of PA, deep in Amish country. Now, who says there’s no fun in the plain and simple life? Not the Amish! 

A QUESTION? Have you checked your chapter mailbox lately?
