That's what I meant! In English, we would say "the group plays..." (verb in the singular because "group" is singular). Or am I completely confused?

Ahhh - Rusty & I cross-posted. Thanks, Rusty. I could swear I heard or read something that stated that "group" is often matched with a plural verb..... but what do I know.........
