Music: BGMC trip getting interesting

I told you a couple of weeks ago that the Boston Gay Men's Chorus would be breaking barriers on its European tour, including being the first openly gay group to perform in Poland. The Herald's T.J. Medrek reports today that the stakes have gotten even higher after gay rights marchers were arrested in Warsaw. BGMC executive director Steven Smith says the group's performance has become "a minor sensation." The group will also lend its musical support to gay marriage in the Czech Republic with a benefit in Prague. Smith's European tour blog is here.
