In 2006 I came up with the idea for the Guerrilla Handbell Strikeforce, a roving handbell choir that would provide unexpected accompaniment for those ubiquitous Salvation Army bell ringers, with the hope that my sister and I could gather musically talented friends in Houston and tour around the city's busy shopping areas. It was a follow up to our two previous pranks, the Christmas Lights "Participation Award" Anti-Prank of 2005 and the Parking Lot Note Anti-Prank of 2004. Alas, we could never pull the project together.

But last year, after working with Improv Everywhere on the Subway Art Gallery Opening, I pitched the idea to Charlie to see if he wanted to help make it happen, and he was in! Three years later, the Guerrilla Handbell Strikeforce came to fruition!

Check out the video and Charlie's write-up. Hurray!
