Don Milton, the artistic director for the Atlanta Gay Guys's Chorus, signed up with \"City Lighting\" host Lois Reitzes to talk about this Atlanta holiday practice.

\" It's a truly outstanding story that 25 years ago, the supervisor at the time, David Pocket, went to the sanctuary and also asked if the Gay Guy's Chorus could execute there. And also they claimed yes, yet then a few of the members at the basilica at the time, weren't very happy with it and also went to the management and also claimed if you let the Gay Male's carolers do right here we're going to leave. As well as the basilica claimed well, alright, you can leave. As well as for a large religious establishment in the south, specifically such a public religious organization in the south, like the Sanctuary of St. Philip to do that, in the mid 90s is a truly large deal ... to defend the LGBTQ area in such a public means was a huge offer for for us and also and for the whole LGBTQ area. \"

\" I can inform you I have actually never had a funnier time performing anything in my entire life. Reuse the Fruitcake is a foolish track narrating concerning a Granny that just keeps bringing the exact same fruitcake out every year, although no one consumes it. And then she ships it all around the world. But we did it with a lot of outfits as well as dance. And it was it's so amusing. I remember standing there carrying out and simply not having the ability to consider the individuals in outfit because simply their faces were so hilarious. \"
