Straight No Chaser

I was reading through the Mad Ant's president's blog the other day and was reading about an A Cappella group that performed at the University of Oregon. I was bored this weekend and was reading about famous people that attended IU, and came across a group I remember hearing about while I was at IU, but never really saw live. The group from IU is called Straight No Chaser. But, the group that was there when I was there is not the original Straight No Chaser.

Apparently the original group has come across some success as of late. They disbanded when they graduated in 1998. However, one of their members decided to post one of their performances on Youtube so that the other members in the group could see it again. However, it became a huge hit topping over 11 million views. Apparently one of the people that saw it is a record producer and offered them a recording deal for 5 CDs.

They are really awesome to see and I think that you should check them out. I know that it is not Christmas time, but I don't think I will remember it by then, so I guess I will post it now.

In other news, my brother surprised me this week and told me that he will be coming down for Memorial Day weekend, with my lovely future sister (in-law). I need to come up with some things to do while they are here. I have been here long enough that I think I can keep them entertained.

Also, I got a new phone today, so If you haven't already, please pass along your phone number to me in some shape or form. Until later, have a good one!
