Thread Name: Ballad of the Merry Ferry -songs of the Northwest
Subject: RE: Ballad of the Merry Ferry (Pacific NW)
The Seattle Yacht Club? I remember singing there, but I'm afraid I remember it only vaguely. Was that the time we sat around in the cocktail lounge and got thoroughly crocked before we were due to sing?

Yeah, Maggie, I do remember Stan Boreson. He sang a lot of parodies, usually in a broad Scandinavian accent. I Yust Go Nuts at Christmas, Valking in my Vinter Undervear, and a thing called (harking to another thread on fish-tossing) Lutefisk, Oh Lutefisk to the tune of Tannenbaum, Oh Tannenbaum. He's still at it. I saw him on the tube a few weeks ago, doing a commercial, complete with Scandihoovian accent and accordion.
