Subject: RE: Lincoln Cathedral -singing, history, etc (UK)
I only sang in the cathedral once. Someone had the bright idea that schools around the county should all send pupils to be part of a choir performing, amongst other things, bits of the Messiah. It was an awesome experience for our kids but stressful for those of us on crowd control. The toilet facilities were woefully inadequate.
Stow Minster was much more fun. AVarious perfomers from Gainsborough Folk Club sang at the Village Harvest Supper in it a few years ago. They even had a barrel of beer in one of the side chapels!
