Subject: RE: July Shanty Session @The Press Room (NH)
2011-July 16 Press Room Sea Music Singaround
In attendance were Tom Hall, Linn Schulz, Emery Hutchins, Charlie Ipcar, Lynn Feingold, Dianne Lavoie, Ernie Pigeon and Amy, Don Hale, Jeff Keller, Marty Stock, Jeff Warner, Barbara Benn, Chris Vaughn, Larry and Kathryn Job, Annie Storr and her son, Jesse Greer, Bill Lehrman and Carol. Four Shillings Short called shortly before we left for the Press Room to say they wouldn't be able to make it, and a number of other regulars had conflicting obligations. Jeri was too far away for a day commute.
Tom (Curmudgeon) was in pretty good voice and sang along with many songs.
As usual, corrections and additions gratefully accepted.
