hokie carla

I think you mean whinging🤣

8:30 am

MollyL

I have never gotten whinging

8:31 am

hokie carla

when I first saw it I thought the g was silent and they say it the same as whining, then I heard it and was like, hmmm

8:33 am

mael

I had to get used to saying whining instead of whinging, lol

8:34 am

hokie carla

I'm sure you have a lot of those

8:41 am

miss2bit is making her stage debut at Wolf Trap tomorrow for the annual holiday singalong with the US Marine Corps band and dozens of other middle and high school choral singers

8:04 pm

ItalianGreyhound

no idea but sounds glorious

8:12 pm

dan2bit

it's the national park for the performing arts, outside of DC. It's a pavilion style venue, so it's normally only open in the summers, but they open it for free for one day in December, and the Marine Corps band collects Toys for Tots and plays carols. They get local school chorus groups to come on stage and lead the singing. It hasn't been a thing since 2019

8:15 pm

ItalianGreyhound

thanks Dan, I assume Miss2bit is a loved one for you and all the best for you all

8:22 pm
