"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

(Another) Saturday Night

When I was a student at Duke, one of my favorite things to do was listen to The Pitchforks perform. The Pitchforks are an all male a capella group and they were (and still are) fabulous. One of my favorite songs they did was Sam Cooke's "Another Saturday Night". Sadly, I lost all my Pitchforks tapes I got in college but, thanks to the wonders of youTube, I've found a video of Sam Cooke singing that song and a a few videos of the newest incarnations of The Pitchforks...

Have you ever listened to a capella music? If so, what is your favorite song or group?

When I was in college I went through a big a capella phase, but of course at the moment I can't think of a single group I used to listen to. I confess I do love that talent competition The Sing-Off. I can't stand the judges or the host, but I adore the music!

I've just been randomly picking blogs off the A-Z list, and the Dragondreamer name caught my eye, so I was so excited to come here and discover that you also went to Duke. I loved listening to The Pitchforks while I was there!

Wishing you continued success with the A to Z challenge,
Jocelyn
