Do you love to COMPLAIN?
About stupid GSTs and taxi faresor just that noisy neighbour of yours?
Well, why not vent your frustration by singing in
THE COMPLAINTS CHOIR!
It's definitely by far the best way to just release it all!
---------------------------------------------
THE WHAT THING?
It all got started during a winter daywalk of Tellervo Kalleinen andOliver Kochta-Kalleinen in Helsinki.
Perhaps it was due to the coldness of the daythat they ended up discussing the possibility oftransforming the huge energy people put intocomplaining into something else.Maybe not directly into heat –but into something powerful anyway.
---------------------------------------------
Before long, the Complaints Choir projectwas born and the duo started collecting the pet peevesand angst-ridden pleas of people the world over andsang them out in true choir fashion.
Birmingham, better know for it'scomplain kings and queens was a perfect placeto start the project and before you knew it,everyone was humming to "I want my money back..."and well, let's just say, the rest is history!
To date, there are more than 10 Complaint Choirsthe world over including, Melbourne, JerusalemBudapest and St. Petersburg.
...and what about Singapore, you say?
