More A Cappella: The Beelzebubs on Glee

A world without a cappella — where’s the fun in that? Last week’s episode of Glee is a true testament to this fact. When Kurt decides to spy on the New Directions’ competition, he checks out the Dalton Academy Warblers, played by the Beelzebubs from Tufts University in Boston. I love the Beelzebubs. Hello? Did you see NBC’s The Sing-Off last year? They were a total hit. Here they are in Glee singing their rendition of Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream.” Talk about inspiration for other a cappella groups out there. The Wheatones, the Gentlemen Callers, the Whims — you’re next!

The weekend is here!

Happy weekend! I don’t know how you feel, but to me this week flew by. And now it’s time for more Saturday/Sunday bliss! Tonight I’m catching up with my good friend Tamar, event planning extraordinaire who’s in New York from Boston. I can’t wait! Then my parents are coming to town on Saturday to holiday shop and explore. Definitely an action-packed weekend! What are you up to? Anything fun planned? To get your weekend started right, here are a few happy posts from around the web:
