Marty Stock reported at Facebook that the abbreviated and culled down session of song trading (and tourist entertaining) continued until the usual shut down time. Singers were Tyler Buck, Marty, Chris Maden and Reagh Greenleaf.

From Marty (hope he doesn't mind me reposting it here): "A foreshortened Portsmouth Shanty Session yesterday: most people left early to go to other events. The session dwindled after 5:30 to just Tyler Buck and three of us guys, Reagh Greenleaf, Chris Maden, and me. The last hour, we were the Portsmouth Voice Squad, rotating lead and good harmony for surprised and appreciative Press Room dinner patrons, and applause from the bar."

It was a day of too much fun...too many great events were going on. Tom and I squeezed in as much as we could -- Press Room session and then the musical evening at Sinsull's planned around the Bob Zentz and Jeanne McDougle house concert.
