Welcome to the Tour Blog

Hello Family and Friends of The University of Michigan Men's Glee Club,

Last weekend, 500 brothers in song gathered for a powerful couple of concerts celebrating our 150th Anniversary. Now that that has concluded, it is finally time for the Glee Club to shift focus to its 2010 Spring Tour. It has been an eyeopening and rewarding experience to plan the concert these past few years and I look forward to being able to share this gift with the club.

Our tour will take us to six incredible cities: Denver, Las Vegas, Phoenix, Pasadena, San Diego, and Palo Alto. We will be singing in stunning venues, including one frequently used by world acclaimed Chanticleer, and beautiful Memorial Church on Stanford University's Campus. We also have the privilege of singing the national anthem at the Arizona Diamondbacks v. LA Dodgers game on Tuesday, May 11. Finally, we will traverse some of the most picturesque terrain the US has to offer, including the rockies in Colorado, the desert of Zion NP, and the California coast.

As we embark on this two week journey, I hope this blog will give you great insight into the best stories, chords, and excursions of the club.

LET THE TOUR BEGIN!

In Tradition, Camaraderie, and Musical Excellence!
