The 8-12th grade Christmas concert was tonight. It went really well. The band songs were lots of fun. We have a new choir teacher, Mrs. Grant, and she really got everyone to sing out. We've had a problem with being heard in previous years, so that was really good. One of the fun, lively songs we sang was "Fum, Fum Fum."
At the end of the program, the audience kept clapping and clapping, so Mr. White, our principal, asked us to do an encore. "Do the Rum Rum Rum one. I liked it!" He said.
"Rum, Rum, Rum?? It was Fum, Fum Fum, Mr. White!" . . . Silly Mr. White! He was very embarrassed, but took his slip-up very gracefully.
So we sang it. "On December five and twenty, Rum! Rum! Rum! On the day that Christ was born we sing with joy this happy morn. With the bells of heaven ringing, all the angels now are singing Rum! Rum! Rum!
The audience went wild with laughter, and we about died. There were just a couple people keeping the choir composed, because I couldn't sing for the life of me! The laughter just coming up inside of me!
We finished the song and Mr. White came up again to thank us and dismiss everyone. He was still red. It was wonderful. 'Twas one of the best things thats ever happened at any Christmas concerts I've ever been in.
=D Merry Christmas!!!
Hahahahaha! I actually "laughed out loud" at this one! This is too funny! Poor Mr. White! At least you guys have a memorable Christmas concert to look back on, though.
