Barry-
Well, we'll miss you as we lead all your songs including that incredible rendition of "Yangtse River Shanty." But you owe me a tour of Boston some time. Come to think of it I'll be down there the first week of August with nothing to do but prowl around while Judy attends a conference.
Numbers are beginning to firm up for the China Sea Shanty Sing and BBQ. At this point Roll & Go and associated folks will be there. Members of my old contradance band the Sea Slugs will be there. Sinsull will be there. A couple of folks from Portsmouth are coming up. Other nautical singers are still shooting the sun and trying to determine where they are now and where they might be by Saturday. Sharnon and Bunker also have some friends attending. So I would say about 20 to 30 people will be there for sure.
Sinsull has graciously offered bed space for out-of-towners, and other options are also available for those who wish to sleep.
The weather is predicted to be glorious, sunny and in the 70's.
