Thread Name: David Coffin House Concert at TRUBRIT's
Subject: David Coffin House Concert at TRUBRIT's
David is a gem. He wowed us at the Portland Maritime Festival, brought us to tears setting LEJ's shanty for Barry Finn to music and now will be appearing in South Portland, ME at Trubrit's on Saturday, April 23rd. This is Easter weekend so we are hoping no one will be working Sunday. House Concert starts at 7:30. Arrive a little earlier to meet David and browse his CDs. Wine and soft drinks pre-concert. Dessert buffet at half time. It is also St. George's Day so I expect there will be some traditional foolishness - anyone have a dragon they are not currently using? Please contribute to the desserts and beverages if you can. David's website is here: http://www.davidcoffin.com/
He is known for his contributions to maritime music and history. But also (primaily?) teaches young children the wonders of music. A must for those of you with children. I suspect the Limberjack will accompany as well as Linnea, David's daughter.
This promises to be one of our best concerts yet.
Who's in? Who needs a bed?
Jacqui will correct any misinformation I may have offered.
