I am still coming off what I can only describe as a chantey-high from yesterday at the German Club. I was so impressed with the organization on the part of Geoff and Marc. It was a pub format but with the chance for everyone to participate if they chose. As someone said to me the real chantey people were there - you could tell because everyone sang every word of every chantey in full voice. So many performers gave their time . Everytime you turned around someone was doing one of your favorites.Lots of traditional fare, some beautiful new harmonies and of course some interesting parodies. There is such hope for a very special festival in June.Please continue to support the effort and thanks to the others in various venues who are raising money for the 30th.What a treat not to have to wait a full year for a real pub sing. See you all in five months and bring some new people who could adopt the tradition too. Love Pam the other twin
