Oh - I think Portsmouth Shantymen are absolutley tremendous - I have had the pleasure of their company every Easter for many a year. I would encourage one and all to go and see them - they will really open your eyes to what shanty singing can be. Thema nd Stormalong Joh of Liverpool are just Masters.

If you get the chance - ask them to sing the Good Old Way and/or Babylon is Fallen - it will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up - i guarantee it!!!

And please tell them love from Lancaster!
