What's your definition of "flash mob"? Wikipedia defines "flash mob" as a group of people gathered through social media (i.e. facebook or emails) that comes together at a prearranged time in a public place, does something bizarre or unexpected, and then disperses. That's exactly what we did. (I was one of the altos!) It was awesome!
My definition of "flash mob" includes the part that is supposed to be the "flash" part which, I think, suggests strongly that it either is or looks spontaneous. This event wasn't.
Don't get me wrong, not only do I think it was great, as I think I made clear here, I wish I had been there to enjoy the performance. I thought it was "awesome", much as I detest that horribly overused cliche'. I think it was great. A friend was there, he told me, and I was disappointed I hadn't heard of it ahead of time. I'd have loved to have been there.
As a means of purely keeping people from saying mean, ugly, vile or profane or slanderous things, I moderate comments. I'll get your comment up soon as possible (as long as it's not any of the above).
