Oh my goodness! It's almost time for the next concert!

I like that no experience or audition is needed. Chantey singer and folk singers in general don't always have the best voices. I could name some famous people . . . but I won't.

Is there any way you can turn your experiences with this class into a paper that you could submit for the 2015 Mystic Sea Music Festival? Or have you already done that or something else for this June's festival?

Are you in Facebook's Shanty and Seasong lovers group? Someone named Guy Giard posted a link there to your Pomona College Chanty YouTube page.

So many posts on that group's page are in Dutch that with a little help from translations by Bing (often awkward) I'm starting to understand a little of that language, at least when it relates to chanties!
