White kids on stage

My son’s downstairs practicing for his chorale concert in two weeks.

Thus far, I’ve heard “Build Me Up Buttercup,” “Help!,” “Freeze Frame,” “Mr. Blue Sky,” and (most humorously) “All Night Long.” Yep, the Foundations, the Beatles, the J. Geils Band, ELO, and Lionel Richie, all in the same concert. Sung by junior high white kids.

I think the money I spent on tickets will be well worth it. However, I’m making sure that I don’t know if they do the African breakdown in the middle of “All Night Long.” If I know it’s coming, I won’t be able to hold back the giggles.

ELO – “Mr. Blue Sky
the Foundations – “Build Me Up Buttercup
Lionel Richie – “All Night Long
