Either we had a thread on this or it was mentioned within a thread because I remember it vividly. My drummer's kids go to this school and my band plays their yearly harvest festival. We were joking that they stole the money we helped them raise. It's a huge festival too. Tons of rides and fair food and a huge stage etc.
I wonder if we'll be playing it this year. It was cancelled last year for obvious reasons.
Per this Heavy article, there are two nuns involved: https://heavy.com/news/2018/12/siste...er-lana-chang/

OMG, water out my nose. Did you go to Catholic school, CC?
And sorry, these nuns deserve whatever they get. Almost a MILLION dollars!
You are talking to a woman who has laughed in the face of death, sneered at doom and chuckled at catastrophe.
