I’ve been in some tough choirs in my time. I recall the choir director insisting we avoid chocolate and dairy products before the concert. So naturally we brought chocolate milk and M&Ms to eat at the pre-concert warmup. We got the look from the choir director, but nothing worse. Of course, her look was pretty severe, but we survived.

I’m glad I didn’t sing in this choir. They call the cops if you miss the cutoff. Of course, these guys really missed the cutoff by quite a lot.

CHARLOTTE HARBOR — The pastor of a Charlotte Harbor church had 16 church members booted from a service after they allegedly refused to stop singing and let the clergyman preach.

Deputies were called at 10 a.m. Saturday by Pastor David Noel of the Seventh Day Adventist Church on Harborview Road.

Noel told a deputy he was instructed by regional church superiors to involve law enforcement to remove the rogue choir.
