A Quartets only Chapter since 1998

San Francisco Bay Cities Quartet Chapter, The Barbershop Harmony Society  June 2009

Northern California's only chartered quartet club.  Meetings held the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays at Harry's Hofbrau, Saratoga Ave. at Keily in San Jose, CA
Dinner @ 6:00 P.M., followed by song and fellowship. 

Return to Harry's...
Following a brief respite at the Home Town Buffet, we returned to our traditional venue, Harry's Hofbrau.  With all parts on board, we sang quartet favorites through the evening. Marv Bertelson joined us for a rousing rendition of The Pig Song.  Our newest member, Dave Tuttleman joined in the fun with his greatly improved vocalizations.  (Note to members;  You can increase your vocal range and accuracy with a few lessons from a pro.)  Casey announced the annual barbershop campout at Lake St. Francis.  Dennis Baker brought us another Rose ditty, Tiger Rose, with music by Peter Rose (1919).  Is there a theme here? The world famous Disqualified Four sang their venerable tunes, Darkness on the Delta and Home on the Range, the fine arrangements that disqualified them from a novice contest so many years ago. Quartets sang through the evening.  In the dinner hour, various and sundry subjects came to light, including other interests of our members. Jordan Makower and Dave Laubscher are avid wood carvers. They mentioned their upcoming exhibition  to be held June 7. Webmeister Dick announced his recent painting sale at Stone Griffin Gallery in Campbell, CA
