STRASBOURG, FRANCE – MAY 18: Italian students from the Primo Levi Technical Institute of Vignola in the Modena Province, toast with glasses of beer in a pub during a school trip to Strasbourg, France to visit the European Parliament on May 18, 2004. School trips can be a sort of initiation trip for teenagers, where they are introduced for the first time to alcohol and drugs. Many times they don’t sleep for the whole trip. The trips often allow the students to get to know each other better. If one is considered “different” than the group, it can be a nightmare experience for the teenager. Mainly the teenagers are only interested in clubs, shopping and having a pizza instead of the cultural aspects of the school trip. (Photo by Marco Di Lauro/Getty Images)

Imagine being in a bar and the entire crowd breaks out in song. That's kind of what this is. Pub Choir is a traveling show where strangers gather to drink and sing together. A video of a recent session in Brisbane, Australia showed about 1500 people belt out The Backstreet Boys song I Want It That Way. A choir director led the sing-along with a guitar player strumming the music. The crowd learned the song and their parts in less than 90 minutes. They did a great job nailing the harmony. Sounds like an idea! Your next station gathering should feature this! What song would you pick to have your listeners sing?
