    Well I am usally a solo musical artist but I just wrote a new song about 4 lads from the UK that live in a yellow submarine so I might team up and sing my new song with 3 other AM members. Cheers!

      Nope, not at all. My answer stands as-is.

    Did that in college and traveled all over the country on concert tours. Took some seriously long bus rides, like 28 hours from New Orleans to upstate NY. You seriously don't know what an a capella singing group is?

    A glee club is one type of a capella group. The one I sang in features men's voices, as is the tradition at schools such as Cornell, Harvard, Morehouse College, the University of Michigan, the University of Pennsylvania, and Wabash College (Indiana). Some of these schools and others also have all-female groups featuring women's voices. Others, such as Yale, have mixed groups featuring men's and women's voices. Have a listen:

    That figures. It's an acquired taste and enjoyed most by those who appreciate the artistry and hard work that goes into a performance like that. I probably spent as much time in that chapel rehearsing and standing on those risers performing as in any other campus building during my four years.

    It was an excellent performance and you must have been very dedicated to do that.

    We were. Two 2-hour rehearsals per week. Our director often drilled us on close harmonies and, since he had played football in college (and directed the band at halftime), he had us run laps around the chapel, which helped with breathing and breath control. And then there were all those long bus rides on tours between semesters in January.

    All that and no scholarships. One wonders why.

    I'm not aware of colleges handing out choral music scholarships.
