Attn: Singers! The Packabelles Want You!

submitted by Wheezer on Tuesday, September 2 2003 at 9:11 AM

Hey everybody! The Packabelles are coming back this semester with full force to rock campus with some awesome acappella music. We have bigger and better goals set for our group, and last semester, we even cut a CD. That coming from a first year acappella group is saying something! Where do you fit in? The Packabelles are looking for some talented individuals to come and join our amazing group. We will be in the Brickyard today, through Thursday promoting our efforts, and scoping out the field for some talented people. During the day, we will be posted in the Brickyard from 1-2 Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and in the evening, we'll be making rounds around campus making live preformances. So please stop buy and get an audition time!
***Auditions will be held Thursday 9/4 from 6-11pm in the Lee Lounge***
Auditioners will have to sing a prepared solo acapella, show skill on vocal ranges, and scales, and may be asked to sing with the group. Auditioners must be female, and a student at NCSU. The Packabelles do not discriminate against color, race, age or major. (You do not have to be in the music dept. to join our group.)
For more information about the group, as well as audition times, please check out the Packabelles Website at: http://www.Packabelles.com

Oh I love me some Packabelles! They're an awesome group! I wish I could sing and had the time to be a part of the group...

Shut up, roddy

Their music is actually very good. I'd recommend that you check it out sometime at one of their many on-campus performances this year, or by buying a CD to support the group.

They have a particularly nice-sounding re-make of Jewel's Am I Standing Still?

Best of luck! Don't forget about appropriations in the fall & spring!

Plz to not discriminate against sexuality either. Not saying you do, just a reminder; it's nice to be inclusive if you're going to be inclusive.

Kristen I wish I could join

Well, sexuality doesn't have to be involved. I mean, unless you come to auditions and just blurb out "by the way, I"m a lesbian", it won't be an issue. And it won't be. This group is concerned with singing, and not which way floats your boat

Did you get any lesbians?

Hahahaha j/k

How did it go?

9/5/2003 10:18:06 AM

Well, We didn't have any proclaimed lesbians audition, but I guess if we have lesbians at our call back, all's good :-D

Auditions went well, but we're going to have call-backs and more auditions on this coming Tuesday in the Owen Classroom.


So, if you see anyone who you think has talent, let 'em know to try out! And thanks for checking up on us! it's very much appreciated ;-)
