I spent all day today on the road: driving Brenna to the cottage to stay with my parents, then returning home by bus. Tomorrow morning I depart for Montreal and the seventh international GALA festival, including more than 5,000 people from over 150 choruses. [livejournal.com profile] djjo is coming, too. Les will pick me and Danny up and drive us there. A few more members of the Waterloo-Wellington Rainbow Chorus will trickle in over the weekend, and a few carloads on Tuesday. Our performance is Thursday afternoon, and we're counting on 44 members singing. I'll return home on July 25.

[livejournal.com profile] bigmacbear will be there with the Rochester Gay Men's Chorus, and his partner, [livejournal.com profile] gmjambear. I'm especially looking forward to meeting [livejournal.com profile] dakoopst for the first time. I know of a few other LJers attending the festival, too. If anyone wants to contact me, I'll be staying in a block with about half the members of my chorus at the Best Western under my own name.

Another highlight will be a comedy night by Lily Tomlin on Wednesday.

I haven't visited Montreal since Expo 67 when I was three. In fact I haven't travelled outside Ontario since '96. So I'm more than a little excited.

Break a leg, all you fabulous choristers.
