The 'old-folks' chorus I was I was talking about at our meeting tonight is called the Young at Heart Chorus (www.youngatheartchorus.com).
From what I gather, they're a group who started in 1982 in an elderly housing project, and they just started combining their talents to put on an evening of entertainment for folks. Some of their memebers have lived and performed into their 90's.
Here are a couple of youtube links to see their version of 'Fix You' by Coldplay, the first one is longer, and provides a bit of the story of the man singing it, while the other one is shorter, but a better video...
Here you go...
