Indeed sometimes it has been easier to get with a group of people who all just love music and love to sing, even if they aren't the best, as opposed to curating the best people for the best sound. My goals in these areas has changed dramatically as I have gotten older and the only thing that much matters to me is continuing to get to sing, as opposed to being critically acclaimed for it! Oh how things change as time goes on.
And I don't know, you seem pretty cool to me! Steem on friend! :P
