The July Press Room Shanty, Forebitter, and Foc's'l Ballad Session-In-Exile will be this Saturday, July 20th from 3:30 to 7:30 at the Continental Restaurant & Bar -- just north of Dover 2 blocks from the intersection of Rtes. 108 and Rte. 9. See previous threads for address and directions.

For consistency and ease is searching for past threads, I'm continuing to refer to the session in the header as "Press Room" even though we're meeting at the Continental north of Dover and not in Portsmouth. The Continental is a wonderful venue for us and, let's face it, we have no guarantees when the Press Room will reopen or if there will be a place there for the sessions when it does.

There's plenty of FREE parking, handicapped access, lots of seating, good acoustics, Guinness on draft, and Chinese food and buffet. We're in the function room just off the bar -- turn left at the saltwater aquarium, then turn right into the function room.

I've heard from Nick Noble. He'll be at both the Friday Anglo-Celtic trad session (also at the Continental, 4:30-8:30) and Saturday's shanty sing.

Who else is coming? Hope to see you all then!
