I didn’t know the that Pearl District had a tree lighting until the Low Bar Chorale advertised in their newsletter that they were performing. Being a fan of both the Low Bar Chorale and free things, I invited the singing friends, and Jeff, Kelly, and Laurie attended with me.
We had a fun time singing along to Low Bar Chorale winter standards including “Hazy Shade of Winter” (Bangles version) and “December” which sounds remarkably like Earth, Wind & Fire’s “September” but with a few changed lyrics.
There were some fun little munchkins who skipped around the square at intervals. And the turnout was good.
Before the lighting:
And after!
It was a chilly, fun sing-along. And Kelly was relieved that “All I Want for Christmas Is You” was not among the song selections.
