Joe-

Not to worry about them banjo jokes. Besides, it was Jim Nelson's banjo I was using, not my own. Nice to finally meet you in person as well, and to assist your navigation through the streets of San Francisco at breakneck speeds to our digs at Fisherman's Wharf.

Nice party, and in spite of my misgivings lots of fine folks showed up. Carol did wonderful job singing while playing concertina. Bill was there with more fine shanties and other oddities. Melanie with a rousing version of "Roll Down" and Jim with a nice rendition of "Paddy West" barely escaping the ritual bucket of water from Judy. Sharyn was spirited enough to join Judy to steal "Dead Dog Cider" at the appropriate moment into "Rise Again" but maybe you had to be there to fully appreciate this.;~)

Gonna miss these folks, and many thanks to Richard for hosting this one.

Richard- not to worry about the Roll & Go CD's. They were delayed again in production and I'm having the full set of 1000 sent back to Maine. We'll start a new thread to test interest but folks can always contact me directly at www.rollandgoseasongs.com

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
