biographical info

What began over 30 years ago as a shirtless, writhing frenzy at Brian Pritchard's cottage has grown into one of the most compelling and volatile a cappella outfits in all of Southwestern Ontario. For most bands, on-stage knife-fights, accidental electrocutions, and the mysterious disappearance of nine members would be their death knell.

Not so for The R3MC.

Fuelled by latent homosexual tendencies and case after case of Old Milwaukee beer, The R3MC have managed not only to survive, but thrive. Once lauded as "the working man's Vienna Boys Choir", they have stood fast by their motto: "Any song that lasts more than 12 seconds is about 4 seconds too long". Although, with the advent of videos and compact discs, their popularity has waned, The R3MC has reunited. Fans of the choir's earlier work will remember the infamous 1983 "key party" incident that led to a spate of paternity suits and an eventual hiatus.

DNA tests finally determined that all 12 pregnancies were attributable to Morris Kleinberg, the choir's long-time bus driver, thus paving the way for a resolution.
