We have bigger and better things to move on to--including new songs!<br /><br />We had a great time preparing for ICCA's and love our new wardrobe. Thanks to everyone who supported us--fans and alumni alike. We love you all! Here are some pictures. We are also sad to see Chris Andersen go. We'll miss him on Sproul!<br /><br />Right now, DeCadence is on the road in Los Angeles for Spring Tour. We just sang at The Grove in Hollywood and Venice Beach (we met some fairly interesting people there). We also had a concert with family and friends in Sun Valley where we made some good money, Yay! We're in Hermosa beach and are excited for more adventures. More updates and pictures to come!<br /><br />Happy Spring Break!<br />DeCadence Love,<br />Nevin<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4369685349586540364-4227118389317538099?l=decadence.berkeley.edu%2Fblog'/></div>DeCadencehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11407143788619441161noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4369685349586540364.post-77070880499642805722009-02-16T22:27:00.000-08:002009-03-25T12:35:13.035-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://decadence.berkeley.edu/blog/uploaded_images/DSCF2037-764936.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://decadence.berkeley.edu/blog/uploaded_images/DSCF2037-764381.JPG" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://decadence.berkeley.edu/blog/uploaded_images/DSCF2040-729287.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://decadence.berkeley.edu/blog/uploaded_images/DSCF2040-728764.JPG" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://decadence.berkeley.edu/blog/uploaded_images/DSCF2030-774004.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://decadence.berkeley.edu/blog/uploaded_images/DSCF2030-773565.JPG" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> <div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"><br />Hello DeCadence Fans!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">So, finally, we have a blog! Thank you so much to David Spies, our webmaster and nifty bass, for putting this up.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">As you can see from our website, we are a wily bunch of co-eds who sing a cappella music, duh! If you don't know what a cappella music is or haven't heard us live, check out this </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Cappella">wiki article</a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">...</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">There is just so much wonderful "stuff" I would like to share with you fans, new and old, but unfortunately, I can't possibly share all our experiences from the last billion semesters we've been together. So, I start from now...basically this semester, Spring 2009!</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">So, what is ruling/rocking DeCadences' lives right now...</span><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">SPROULS:</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">(So...Sprouls, these are basically weekly performance we do on our plaza outside our student union...)</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Last week, we had our Valentine's day Sproul, which was pretty awesome. Our theme was 'conversation hearts'. We each had our own heart with a nerdy/cute/sexy/mean message inside. I know for sure that we got people's attention. Some of our audience member's left with Valentine's they didn't have before...</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">And the best thing happened....</span><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">Last Wednsday was a cloudy day, and while Frannie Makabenta was singing her solo, Madonna's </span><a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AiPMsRtZZk"><span style="font-style: italic;">Like a Prayer</span></a><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);">, rays of sunshine came down upon DeCadence.

I encourage all of you to donate towards upon which later we will send you a copy. Donations are $12. We've been recording diligently, while not losing sight of our immediate goal, ICCA's.
