I was judging a contest in CSD. It was probably just before GHG's fifth album was released. We had just finished the Saturday night evaluations. I was wiped out tired, so I decided to just go to sleep and forego the festivities. Alas, that was not necessarily to be. My room was literally right next to a very popular sounding hospitality room. I tried to ignore the quartets singing and go to sleep but that was not to be. Perhaps the fourth quartet in, I was treated to an epic that started off with "We're four short guys................." Yep! GHG was unleashing their version of Beethoven's Fifth.
Well, I was so exhilerated by that performance that I got our of bed, got dressed, and went off to party with the rest of the convention!
