Today, I had my first chorus concert. We got a bigger applause when we left the stage than when we sang. FML

Make an entrance, not a scene
Today, I was a guest performer for a school orchestra concert a grade above mine. When they called my name, I didn’t hear them, so when they started the song hundreds of people watched me run on stage. FML

The Sopranos
Today, I had been practicing for a solo in a choir I’m in. I finally got it down and was all ready to audition. On audition night, the choir director let me try out, then decided all the sopranos should sing it. FML

Today, I was at a band concert with 500 other people. The song they were performing stopped, and I loved it so much I stood up and clapped. Everyone stared, while I slowly realized the song wasn't over. FML

Today, our school had tryouts for chorus. Everybody sang a snippet of the song together until the teacher stopped us, saying it sounded awful. He singled me out and told me to sing alone. After I sang the part, he said, "Son, your gift to God will be silence." FML

Today, I was at a local talent show and during a piano performance I had to go to the bathroom. I sang along in the bathroom but was unaware how loud I was until I walked out and everyone started applauding me while the pianist was still playing. FML

Today, it was opening night for the play where I was, for the first time ever, one of the leads. I went on stage with a loud and energetic entrance. I came in two scenes early. FML

Nervous laughter
Today, I went to my kid's band concert. She's 12 and in the advanced team. They were the first ones to play and they were so incredibly bad that I laughed. Really, really loud. I was escorted out of the recital. FML

Today, I attended a musical. A new song was played, and I thought I'd heard it before because it sounded strangely familiar. I sang along quietly as the song progressed, positive I knew it. Anticipating the next chorus, I belted out the lyrics with all my heart. It was instrumental. FML

aren't people supposed to clap the most at the end

Would have been kind of rude to applaud while you were singing.

The way you put it makes it sound bad, but applause after a performance as the performers exit the stage is usually a good thing. OP, how do you know they weren't just being respectful and waiting until the very end to applaud?

Exactly what I was thinking. I really don't clap until the end of a performance and that's cause I liked it if not I don't clap at all!

Tough Crowd. (And usually during a performance, the audience waits until the bow/when the performers leave the stage to clap. It's polite. )

Well they're not really suppose to clap while you're singing. Most concerts end with you guys bowing and leaving with the crowd applauding as you leave, so...

Face OP, you suck hard nads.

Oh yeah, how would they know if you were good before you played? So them clapping a lot must have been a good thing.

Duh OP generally the song to song applause is short so they don't screw up the flow of the concert...
