Not so. Plenty of millennials singing Sacred Harp with great delight, particularly in urban areas. Recent event in Atlanta had 700 people from many countries. Definitely not just an elderly southern thing.

My thought is that the 'line-up" is more dynamic than that. Decisions are made on the fly, depending on how things are going in the room. The Lesson order isn't always known that far in advance.
You'd be welcome to sing Sacred Harp anytime. Four-part a cappella harmony in a free, community setting.

I understand ABC national news is interested. I haven't heard anything additional from the local WABE. #shapenote
Odd, "Appalachia-washing" (Appalachia Mid-South Newsroom; Benton KY), but a lovely report. #shapenote
... and Whitestown, Ester, and Stafford will get new lyrics #SacredHarp
Lisa with Ricky McGraw, today at Mt Zion Church.

Buell died in late April. There was no memorial service.
From that remark, I'd say it was the right decision. We don't need a brawl on SHF.
@roscoesbasement.bsky.social -- I see that the irony was not lost on you.
