Hello,

Better late than never?

Just saw this old thread about Capstan Bar/Heave Me Boys Away. I learned it in the late 70s. I think it was from a record but it may have been from a book that someone in Dogwatch had. I think our former member Jerry Peterson worked it up for our first year at Dickens Fair in 1978.

At times we also sang the Heave and Sing and Sing and Heave verse but we thought "too much heaving", sounds like everyone has Mal-De-Mere.

Hope you see this eventually.

Gary
