Does anyone besides me like a capella music?
I currently have a very nerdy obsession with it.

One of the reasons I'm excited for university is that I want to be in an a capella group.

1. My Daughter sang some in HS Choir.
They made a nice CD. Set me as a Seal upon your Heart was my favorite.

8. My favorite thing they've ever recorded is "Heavenly Bank Account."
They performed it as part of the "Zappa's Universe" tribute concerts in 1991.

6. Check Out Chanticleer

An a capella group out of San Francisco. Their Christmas album ("Sing We Christmas") is just magnificent....

7. Just read a book about collegiate a cappella groups, actually...
Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of the book, but it focuses on the Beelzebubs, the Hullabahoos, and...umm...crap, I can't remember the name of the other one, but it's all-female. (I guess not being about to remember makes me a misogynist. <grin>)
