Thread Name: BS: Chicago Chantey Sing
Subject: RE: BS: Chicago Chantey Sing
Wow! The chantey sing hosted by the Sheridan Shores Yacht Club, and in turn orchestrated by Tom and Chris Kastle proved to be a great success -- signs of sings to come. A great event attended by 4 Mudcatters (at least those willing to be identified); one new Mudcatter -- known only as Dan sang his chanteys influenced by exposure to the Ancient Mariners and Cliff Haslam: a great contribution by a former CT resident (I thought I was back at Mystic). I want to say that the other Mudcatters are Gazebo/Renn Faire related folks -- some wonderfully lyrical stuff and a Midwest connection to the DC based Pyrates Royale ... what a small world. Chicago is on the way to starting a regular chantey sing ...watch out! Yes, Nirvana... Cheers, Brian
