... or as the "New and Improved" Good Book reimagines the Golden Rule: "I'm better than you because _________".

I sang everything from low bass to high falsetto tenor, but I mostly sang lead. We performed everything from classic hymns to Andre Crouch to Bill Gaither. Our sound was not dissimilar to The Statler Brothers or the Oak Ridge Boys. We had fun with it & acquired a bit of a following. But once...
