Hi guys,

I've been following the Orca praise for quite a while now. And it made me curious. Since poping over the pond for an audition at the Blumenstein's is a bit disproportionate, I am looking for a chance to listen to them a little closer by. I live close Zurich, Switzerland and still have my parents living in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, which I visit not often enough..... I am also in London 5-6 times a year.

So to cut a long story short, is there anyone out there in one of those locations who is willing to let me listen to them?

Can't help you (sorry), but I'm curious (and sorry that this is totally off topic): if you're a native German, how long did it take you to adjust to Z

It took only a few weeks to adjust. The swiss will switch to german or english as soon as they know your foreign. Live here since the late 90's, but still speak high german. However, the odd swiss german word was added to the vocabulary :-) At home or at work there is mostly English (wife is from the UK).

Do you live in CH too, or plan to move?
