A Radio Days Christmas

The next meeting will be Feb. 1 at chorus rehearsal.

Christmas Was In The AirThe Big Chicken Chorus Christmas Show for 2010 is now over and was a lotof fun. A big THANK YOU to all who helped things run smoothly. Close to950 people attended the show.

We were able to bring $103 to the BCC treasury from water sales. The bigemphasis for us this year was to keep people off the stage area. The chorusmembers came down from the stage to greet people and to prevent well-wishers from going on stage to greet them. We had Rooster Boosters guard the stage entrances for all three shows.

Donna French was a trouper and manned the Ticket Office for all three shows. She was kept busy with will-call and also with selling over $650 worth of tickets for walk-in customers.

Denise Evans, Gail Freshour, Sue Ann Justus, Erin Ebdon, Linda Shelles, Nancy Cox, Paula Morris, Marilyn Hrach, Amy Slaney, Alta Brause, Judy Dorn and Norma Patton and her familymembers, took on the duties of ushering, guarding the stage, selling water and Big Chicken CDs, and passing out cookies to hungry attendees. And, thank you Emery Cushing for supplying water for chorus members and also to sell.

JACK SWEITZER MEMORIAL MILE

The Atlanta Falcons tend to win when 129 &Counting sings the National Anthem. And thequartet was shooting for their eleventh straightappearance with a win whenthey sang before the Dec. 27game against the Saints.Falcons head coach MikeSmith requested them afterthey performed before the lasttwo Chicago games when theFalcons won.

Well after this very close, butlosing, game Dec. 27, thequartet reflected that: “Weguess records are meant to bebroken and that’s OK with us

because we can assure you, 129 & Counting didour very best to present the barbershop sound tothe 80,000 fans in attendance. And, if it wasn’t for

a couple untimelyfumbles, dropped passesand a defense thatcouldn’t keep the Saintsout of the end zone, ourrecord of 10 wins vs. 0losses would still beintact. Of course, as wefinished performing thelast couple notes, theapplause was deafeningand, it’s always great toget a standing ovation!”

129 & COUNTING AT FALCONS GAME:

Remember, it’sto benefit us all.

HISTORIAN’S NOTE: According to the June and July 1990 editions of theCHIT...CHAT, the chorus pulled it off. On June 16, the BIG CHICKENCHORUS and the SONG OF ATLANTA CHORUS combined for a fantasticshow at the FABULOUS FOX THEATER! And on July 7 in San Francsico,the BIG CHICKEN CHORUS placed 11th in their first try atINTERNATIONAL contest.

BY RON MAGNUSON, MARIETTA CHAPTER HISTORIAN

If you have been to one or more of the Big Chicken Chorus performancesover the years, you may have seen or encountered a rather large yellowchicken on stage or mingling with the crowd. With input from several of ourchorus members, we have compiled a list of the people who have donnedthe chicken costume to serve as the chorus mascot.

You, too, can Have Fun In FeatHers

PastMascots:

• Irene Philo, wife of Dave,the first director of thechorus

• Sarah Roose, daughter ofJim

• Debbie Geer, wife of Frank• Pat Yelton, wife of Bob• Claudia Bell, wife of Russell• Debbie Bruner, wife of Will• Vicki Morrison, wife ofTerry (current member)

• Terry Morrison (currentmember)

• Brita Buhrman, wife of Art(current member) (Seearticle and photo of Britaand Art on page 8)

• Bob Slaney (currentmember)

THIS CAN BE YOU! Let a Chorus member

know if you’re interested

There may be others and we would certainly like to hear from you if you areone of them or know of someone who has served as the chorus mascot.

Personally describing himself as “tall, dark, handsome andItalian”, Frank is ever so modest and humble! Frank and his wifeBetty Jean reside in Cartersville, GA, where Frank owns a cateringbusiness known as “Chef Frankie B’s”. Retiring in 2003 after 28years with Verizon, Frank and his family moved to Georgia in 2005.The youngest of 10 children, Frank is a native New Yorker fromLong Island. He has lived previously in Florida and a short time inNorth Carolina. He and wife Betty of 22 years, on a combinedbasis, have 13 grandchildren! Ask him more about his family, andget ready for this - he will tell you he has 68 nieces and nephews,and 44 great nieces and nephews! But who’s counting?!! Whenasked about how he is enjoying his experience with the BigChicken Chorus, he immediately summed it up: “I was sold the first day. Don [Jackson] and hiswife Nancy encouraged me to check it out, but I didn’t know what to expect. But when I came tothat first rehearsal, (riding with Don and Mac) everyone was so exceptionally warm andwelcoming that I knew I wanted to sign up right then! And I continue to love every minute ofit.” Frank went to work on the music right away, and only 4 weeks later, was “suited up” andwas competing along with us on stage at the Fall District Contest in Knoxville! Welcome“Frankie B!”

FRANK BISCARDI - LEAD

In this issue we are excited to “welcome” newmember Frank Biscardi and “welcome back” former member Frank Evans to the risers! Goahead and ask…”Since they are both named Frank, does that mean that they are related?”Are we having fun yet? Oh, did I mention that they are both LEADS?

For Frank Evans

We are glad to see these guys back actively singing again:Ray Taylor, Jerry Walsh and Rod Patton.

It is so nice to see Frank back with us again after a year away fromhome! Frank and his wife Denise live in Dallas, GA. They have 2children and 2 grandchildren, all living in Pittsburgh, PA, where hespent most of his career. Taking design and implementationresponsibility for a major I/T conversion for the Honda Motorsplant, Frank relocated to an apartment in South Carolina inJanuary 2010. Meanwhile, his wife Denise remained here. At thattime, Frank transferred his BHS membership to the Frank Thorne(at large) chapter, so he could stay active. As it turns out, once theconversion was completed successfully, Honda decided to re-aligntheir divisions, and Frank was able to return home! Lucky for us!Frank has spent 38 years in information technology, doing justabout everything. Born in Albany, KY, he has an undergraduate degree from University ofKentucky, and a MBA from the University of Pittsburgh. He must be a smart guy! His singingexperience includes church choirs and also 2 barbershop choruses! The first was a start-up inFlorence, SC, and then he joined the Columbia, SC, chapter in 2000 when he moved there. Hecontinued to sing with them until he and Denise moved to Georgia in 2005. A friend and fellowbarbershopper suggested that he visit the Big Chicken, and the rest is history! Frank first sangwith us in July 2005. You might see him wearing his digital recorder at rehearsals. Way to goFrank, and welcome back!
