Thread Name: April Shanty/Forebitter Session (NH)
Subject: RE: April Shanty/Forebitter Session (NH)
The Friday session at The Press Room will be going on as usual, but, of course, those of us in "The Press Room Gang" will have to head over to the Unitarian Church quite early in preparation for our performance in the Friday night part of the New Hampshire Folk Festival -- opening for Gordon Bok and Cindy Kallett.
There will be plenty of regulars to hold down the PR session until 9 (although, some, I'm sure, will come over for the concert).
It was truly wonderful to see Chris Albrecht again after over 9 years. He was a major part of our Friday sessions and part of Tom's 1980s sea music group, the Main Brace. On Saturday we were able to again sing "Lovely Agnes" together -- he does a lovely harmony on the chorus. (And it's been a while since I've sung it being hugged tightly around the waist!)
