You’re a person that needs to be convinced. We understand. Why should you attend the East Coast A cappella Summit March 7 -9 2008 in Reston, VA? Yes, tickets start at a whoppin’ ten dollars and you’re not spending that kind of serious pizza dough without a well-reasoned rationale! So, my last-minute friend, here are ten reasons to get you goin’ to the ECS!
1) Head-spinning Variety! How a bout a Barbershop chorus of 30+ people followed by an a cappella beatbox band of only 3? How about some aca-folk rock followed by aca-swing jazz, followed by aca-German pop and then award-winning aca-originals about scientific phenomena? And that’s all just a piece of Sunday’s Matinee Concert? Imagine Friday and Saturday’s concerts!?! Did I just blow your mind?
2) Get the happiest whiplash of your life from the new jam-packed masterclass seminar format! All the information in an hour-long presentation miniaturized to fit into 45 minutes! 22 sessions in all!
3) Get more arranging tips than at any other summit! Not one, not two but 3 full arranging seminars and several other arranging seminar portions- from beginner to pro!
4) Free Money! Find out the winners of the JAMAAs! -Which a cappella projects got free money and get tips on how you can get some too! This is stuff even the guy in the Question Mark suit doesn’t know about! And if that’s not enough, how about a seminar devoted to teaching you how to raise your own money! Still not enough?! (You’re so greedy! But ok!) How about seminars in how to save money producing your recording, manufacturing your CD or going the digital distribution route!
5) Who says a cappella can’t look as good as it sounds? Get performance and style tips from Europe, that bastion of fashion! Accents are sexy. Vocaldente from Germany and Mauf from Austria have them. (Actually so does a certain vocal jazz quartet that shall not be named) After listening closely to their performances and seminars you’ll have a fake Madonna accent before you know it!
6) Catch the winning DC Harmony Sweepstakes Champions giving you their newest, hottest set. They weren’t your favorite?! That’s ok because some of their hottest competition is doing a set too!
7) Blow people’s minds by learning how to sing more than one note at a time. Get good and you can do a decent “Amazing Grace” duet with yourself. Not joking.
8) The most awesome lights and sound the summit has ever had. Not only are we hauling in top of the line components, not only will Marty Gasper run the system to sonic perfection, but the entire theatre has been rebuilt as a multi-million dollar state-of-the-art palace of artistic integrity. Spoil yourself by experiencing a cappella in this world. It’ll be hard to leave.
9) Tired of covering tired covers other people have tirelessly covered? Write your own songs! Have something burning in your soul that you just gotta say to the world? Let your inner muse free! Get the songwriting tips of not one, but a team of writers.
10) You sing like an angel, but in between songs it’s nothing but awkward silences, talking over one another, bad jokes and cheese-ball intros. Learn what to say on stage from the new President of CASA, Dave Brown!
So what are you waiting for! Get your tickets online before Thursday night!
