Thanks for BTTing this thread scrappintoee , I had meant to go back and ask kristi if she ended up going to the San Fransisco show, and if so, how was it? What song did you sing? KiwiJo there are new shows in New Zealand (Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch) in January: HERE
What’s the “Pub” part about though? It looks like they do this in theaters? I think she started out doing it in pubs, and perhaps she still does occasionally. But it's gotten so big and popular that she needs to do it in bigger venues now.

That’s so cool! I have a very strong belief that we humans would be happier if we sang together in large groups on a regular basis! And danced too, probably. There’s something very special about it. I mean, who doesn’t love a flash mob? I was just reading about a guy who isn’t really into soccer but is a fan of Liverpool partly because they sing “you’ll never walk alone” and just hearing him describe that, 60,000 people singing the same heartfelt song together, gave me goosebumps.
It’s a theme that keeps coming up in different books I read about things like awe and happiness. I want to start a choir in my community where we just sing popular songs very loudly and don’t worry about getting the notes right.

dewryce this clip shows two different shows singing 'Slice of Heaven'. FACEBOOK VIDEO HERE The first one in 2017 was in a pub, and was quite small. The second one in 2022 is in a much bigger venue with heaps more people. And the caption says "Look how far we've come."
