Not surprisingly, on Saturday and Sunday, December 18 and 19, the North Coast Men's Chorus will have their holiday concert, "Stocking Stuffers," at Waetjen Auditorium on the Cleveland State University campus. The Saturday show is at 8 pm and the Sunday show is at 3 pm.

There will also be a preview concert at 7:30 pm on Saturday, December 4 sponsored by P-FLAG at St. John UCC in Dayton.

Backing up the show is the release of the chorus's holiday CD Lights! Cameras! Carols!, featuring everything from Irving Berlin

At the center of it all, both metaphorically and geographically, the Columbus Gay Men's Chorus will start their season with "Joy!" on December 3 and 4 at King Ave. United Methodist Church at 8 pm, with an additional performance at 2 pm on December 4.
