Vocal Point

Tonight at work, I had the pleasure of listening to Vocal Point...LIVE!

We often get high profile people at The Roof Restaurant since it is one of high end restaurants in Salt Lake City and tonight did not disappoint! 

Vocal Point, for those unfamiliar, is BYU's male a cappella group.  This last year, they auditioned for NBC's "The Sing Off" and made it through to the top 5 groups.  They do all the sounds like vocal percussion, bass, etc. with absolutely no traditional instruments!  I felt very well represented and was proud to be a BYU Alum as I watched them perform all season.  So you can imagine when I saw them walk through the door tonight that I would be a little excited.  What you probably didn't know (because I could not have foreseen it either) is that I would act like a total groupie!  Yep, that's right.  I'm a little embarrassed to say how thrilled I was to meet them.  I did save a little of my dignity and didn't ask for a picture, but I kinda wish I had.

A little while later, I was in the back of the restaurant and several of the servers were saying how they wished Vocal Point would sing before they leave, yet no one dared ask them.  So, being the groupie I realized I am, I asked them!  To be honest, I think they were a little excited to sing for us too.

They all crowded around our piano and asked the pianist to give them their tuning note and then...

I know!  That was all my phone got and I can't figure out why!!!  It showed that it was recording the whole time, yet it only saved 18 measly seconds. None of the good stuff!  Now you know why I wish I had asked for a picture. 

This is the song they sang to us tonight...

I later talked with our pianist about how they topped any possible serenade, ever!  She was surrounded by 9 amazing guys singing a beautiful song.  LOVE IT!

So anyway.  Its official.  I can be a total groupie.  But, that's just how its gonna be!

Hope you had a great weekend too!
