THE FOLLOWING IS A DANVILLE BARBERSHOP CHORUS RELEASE
The Danville Barbershop Chorus is hosting their second “Polecats in the Park” free concert at the Lincoln Park Stage on Tuesday, September 10. The program will begin at 6:00 pm.
“‘Polecat songs are some of the bedrock barbershop staples,” notes chorus director Marty Lindvahl. “Folks will recognize some of the traditional numbers, like ‘My Wild Irish Rose,’ ‘Let Me Call You Sweetheart’ or ‘Wait Till The Sun Shines Nellie.’”
“As an added feature, our ‘polecats’ will be helping the cats and other pets at the Vermilion County Animal Shelter by collecting donations to the shelter during the concert,” Lindvahl added.
There will also be some numbers from past concerts, like “Lazy Day” and ‘With A Little Help From My Friends.’ The program should last about 30-40 minutes. Those attending are encouraged to bring their lawn chairs. There may be some benches available for seating.
