On my work today I heard an ad for a local radio station's Christmas concert. The ad stated that a band named "Straight No Chaser" would be appearing at that concert. Chances are you have never heard of them, but I have. In fact, I hired them. Hired them, you ask? Yes, when I lived in Washington County (Salem) and organized the Miss Washington County Teen Pageant, we hired them to be our entertainment. They were a group of about 12 college guys from Indiana University who sang acapella. They were AWESOME and I LOVED them!So, you can only guess that when I heard a band of that name was coming to Indianapolis I got a little curious. I did my internet research and found out that they have reunited and are coming out with a Christmas cd later this fall. Hence, the Christmas concert apperance.
Doing a little further research, I found out that groups founder is a gentleman named Don Ponce (pictured above). I got a little more curious after learning this. So I did a little more research, and con
firmed that Mr. Ponce is the brother of my favorite news reporter (Anthony Ponce, pictured to the right) who left Indianapolis for Chicago about 2 years ago. Both Brothers are reporters at different stations in the Chicago Market.

I sure didnt, and truthfully I find it kind of creepy!
However, I am not going to stop watching video clips of Anthony's reports online; and I'm more likely to go to the Christmas concert now! Maybe Anthony will be there! :)
