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
