Subject: RE: Portsmouth, NH Maritime Folk Festival
I'm not sure of the schedule for Saturday, but on Sunday performers will be rotated at the following locations:

- Strawbery Banke Museum, outdoors (under a tent, if necessary) with a sound system and an MC.

- McLane's Law Firm:, indoors, with an MC; seating for about 40.

- Bagel Works (coffee shop)

- Dolphin Striker (restaurant)

- Stockpot (restaurant) -- If the weather is fine, this will be outdoors in their riverside restaurant/bar area.

- Starbucks, coffee house.

- Cafe Brioche -- outdoors in the heart of Market Square

- Coat of Arms (pub) sing 'round led by Linn Schulz (Bat Goddess) and Tom Hall (Curmudgeon)

These locations (except Strawbery Banke) are all with a block or two of Market Square in the heart of downtown Portsmouth. After the sessions downtown, there will be a final gathering at Strawbery Banke Museum for what was originally conceived as a "shanty blast," but given the gravity of the times other things may be sung about; whatever feels right.
