Crafty Yankee, I'll withhold judgment until we hear you sing, and I'd very much like to hear you sing. What Roll & Go as a sea songs groups strives to do is seldom close to true shanty singing; no one in his or her right mind would let us close to a working group of sailors unless the ship was firmly moored to the dock. We do sing well and pride ourselves on what we know about the traditional songs we sing, and we make no apologies for an occasional outrageous parody or contemporary sea song.

The only time Roll & Go could not make on a week-end in May would be Sunday, May 20th, between 12-noon and 3 pm, when we're doing a couple of sets at the Portland Public Market in connection with their sea food festival; you've welcome to hear us sing "Dramamine" and join in the chorus at this tasteful venue.

This summer from June through September, Roll & Go hopes to host a 4th Sunday Sea Shanty Sing at the Portland Observatory, a recently renovated watchtower originally built in 1807 on Munjoy Hill to keep track of USO's (Unidentified Sailing Objects). Should be fun if we can close the deal.

Cheerily,
Charlie
