Thread Name: Portsmouth Maritime Fest - the Aftermath
Subject: RE: Portsmouth Maritime Fest - the Aftermath
Barry, after the sing-around at the festival, the folks at Coat of Arms pub talked about having a regular monthly singing session there - probably unacompanied songs, probably on Sun afternoons. I'll let you know.

It was very nice in there. Even the young folks (especially the young folks?) Barry mentioned listened to everything. (And one was recording all the songs!) Many people were a little shy - sitting back from the actual circle. Perhaps they're just more used to performances than particapatory singing. Others just grabbed chairs and plopped down in the circle.
