coup d'choir

I gave my speech to choir: "we’re stopping. We don’t have another performance scheduled: we’ve had to cancel the last few because we just didn’t have enough people, so we can sing anything you want." After singing for a little while, the choir executed a beautiful coup: they decided that we’re not going to break even for one Sunday. 

I will remember June 7^th, 2009 as the date of the great choir rebellion in the Chapel Hill 1^st Ward.
