Thread Name: Aug. Shanty Session @ the Press Room(NH)
Subject: RE: Aug. Shanty Session @ the Press Room(NH)
We definitely missed all those -- Maine and Gloucester contingents -- who had gigs and other commitments yesterday and the local gang who were at Cuzin Richard's NH Folk Festival listening to Bill Staines, David Francey and other singer-songwriters. This session was, after all, on the "wrong" Saturday.
But I guess it's a sign of a good SESSION that that it's lively and engaging no matter what the configuration of singers.
We had a lovely time! I even got to hear yet another song I'd never heard Tom sing before. (We've only been married for 26 years...) And Justine sing more often than she usually does and Barry sing a couple he doesn't often sing, as well as new fodder from Lynn and some lively discussions as well.
Thanks, Justine, for the potty training book with the computer chip button sounding a loud flushing noise (followed by a giggle) -- just what our bathroom with a composting toilet needs. Visitors without non-flush toilets sometimes need "closure"... This should do the trick!
