Thank you, everyone who was a member of our audience anytime during this whole year, and at last night’s concert. You make our time on stage enjoyable with your cheering!
We will miss our only senior greatly, and fall will also cause some rising juniors to go abroad, but are very excited to have three people returning from their semester/year abroad and to audition some fresh blood.
We have two more events before our year officially closes: recording tomorrow (Happy Mother’s Day!), and our final BOKA-Q.
Thank you once again and the next post will hopefully be as Fall 2015 kicks off with some impressive auditions!!

Next Week
Next week, while we’re recuperating from Ivies, we have three performances lined up.
Next week, all we’ll be thinking about is how we are a week away from end of semester.
Next week is your last chance to see us sing through our sick song lineup.
Thanks everyone who came out to watch us at the Earth Day celebration and heard our debut of the Beyoncé medley!
Forever Busy
As Bowdoin Experience weekend comes to a close, we just want to say thanks to those who came out to watch us (and eat the delicious Indian food)! We hope you enjoyed the performance and the rest of your stay.
LOL but we’re not done.
This is where we’re all at right now:
A couple more performances and two more songs to learn away from the final concert.
End of semester is dawning.
