Hi,

Has anyone been to this festival? Me and a couple of mates (we sing a number of shanties anyway) are planning to go down there this year for some entertainment and a beer or two.

Will there be any opportunity for the public to do some singing in a pub or two, or is it just the booked guests doing this and any public participation (other than joining in on the choruses) frowned upon? Anyone know whether there is an 'open mike' thing going on down there when the festival is on?

Cheers

Steve.
