My Voice is my Instrument

NU is known for its quantity (if not quality) of a capella.  With two groups in the past two years advancing far at the national ICCA competitions, many theatre students moonlight as members of a cappella groups.  Trying to figure out which one you belong in?  With a little inspiration from my friend, cmarlowe2012, I created this quick guide for you to follow:


Purple Haze 

- Constantly replacing female members?  Wanna tour Burning Man with your a cappella group?  Want to go to broadway?  This is the group for you!


Undertones

- Can't seem to live up to the class of 2010?  Don't take yourself too seriously? Know what scissoring is?  This is the group for you!


Thunk

- Good-looking?  In theta?  So good-looking that it doesn't matter how boring a capella concerts can be?  Thunk is the group for you!


X-Factors

- Like to have fun?  Don't take yourself too seriously (either)?  Actually in an a capella group because you simply LIKE music?  This is the group for you!


Asterik

- Male?  All-Male?  Really straight (you swear)?  This is the group for you!


Brown Sugar

- Want to perform at Freshman Orientation?  Indian?  Auditioned for Bombay Dreams on Broadway?  This is the group for you?


Freshman Fifteen

- Have a great nick-name?  Look good in Green?  Want to read this blog: http://nufreshman15.blogspot.com/?  This is the group for you!


Significant Others

- Female?  Love Asterik (Don't tell F15)? Love F15 (don't tell Asterik)?  This is the group for you!


See for yourself, incoming Freshman, at A Capella Fest during NSW.    


Pref this blog first,


TI
