Who are we?

We call ourselves the Dewey Square Ad Hoc Chorus, but we're really just a bunch of folks out to share songs in support of Occupy Boston, and we'd love to have you join us! We've got a lot of fun songs, including classic and new protest songs, union songs, and general rousing chorus songs, and we're on the lookout for more.

Upcoming Sings

Unless otherwise specified, all of these are noon-1pm on the Dewey Square Plaza, kitty-corner from South Station:

  • Friday, November 11, 2011
  • Friday, November 18, 2011
  • Sunday, November 27, 2011

...but the OccupyBoston calendar has the definitive schedule.

We gather ~11:45am at the North corner of Summer St. and Atlantic Ave in Boston, kitty-corner from South Station, next to the glass&metal pyramid MBTA entrance; you can't miss us. We may do some optional informal warm-ups between 11:50 and noon.

Lyrics Booklet

We'll have copies of our evolving lyrics booklet, Songs for a Cheerful Occupation, and it will be available here as soon as we can manage. In the meantime, the Occupy Boston library has about some copies of the first version -- go help yourself!

Mailing List

We have a mailing list for planning and announcement of sings:

 http://groups.google.com/group/adhocchorus

If you want to join it and that didn't work, try this instead:

 http://groups.google.com/group/adhocchorus/boxsubscribe

It should give you an error message along with a usable subscription form. (Yes, that's ugly, but we're working on it.)
