CHORUS: Southern Gateway Chorus
Old School was proud to be asked to sing on Southern Gateway's 54th annual spring show. There was a show and an afterglow Saturday night and a Sunday afternoon performance as well. It was a busy weekend for our lead Joe as he is the director of the chorus. Joe was pulling double duty all weekend but seemed to hold up great under the pressure!

Along with the chorus OS was thrilled to share the stage with The Roaring 20's quartet in which Joe's father Mike Connelly is the baritone. The 20's have been a very popular quartet for decades and have finished in the top 5 medalists at international many times.
Also on the show is a new quartet called Lucky Day. They just qualified and will be competing at the international in Anaheim this year. We had a great time with them and look forward to seeing them backstage in July. In this new quartet is tenor Roger Ross who won a gold medal with Joe in Keepsake and baritone Paul Gilman who won a gold medal with Joe and Kipp in the Interstate Rivals and also one with Marquis.

It was kind of a coming home feel as we had many friends and family there. Also, sitting in the front row for the afternoon performance was Jay and Kathy Hawkins. Jay sang bass and won with Joe, Kipp and Paul in the Rivals and won a second gold with Paul in Marquis.
Joe and Paul co-direct Southern Gateway they have the chorus singing VERY well! It was a great show and OS wishes Gateway all the best in Anaheim.....we'll be out there rooting for you! Thanks for the great hospitality guys!

(Singing Tomorrow is Promised in the parking lot Sunday after the show)
