Buffalo Gay Men's Chorus concert

The Buffalo Gay Men's Chorus presented a wonderful concert "Standing on the Side of Love" on Sunday, Oct. 22, in tribute to Jeff Grego, and to benefit the local high school HIV/AIDS education program, and the Unitarian sanctuary renovation project.

About 200 people attended.

The Chorus opened the concert procession with "How Can I Keep From Singing?" sang many songs for a very appreciative audience, and ended the concert with "Standing On The Side of Love", before their Encore, "Nessun Dorma".

Volunteer hosts and ushers, from P-FLAG and the Unitarian Congregation hosted the reception after the performance.
