Abby, thanks for posting the WHOLE schedule. The Mystic Website does seem to need some updating; I'm not sure anyone is at the helm.

I always find plenty of time to snooze while I'm driving back to Maine. And, Barry, I'll try not to sing "Fire, Maringo" while you're snoozing at the YTC; I've got a number of lullabys that might be more conducive to your beauty sleep.;~)

Also on the schedule Saturday afternoon at the North End Stage, 2 PM, is something called a "Chanty Blast" for Performers, Guests and Volunteers; this appears to be an OPEN shanty swap for those who are interested in such a thing during the day. Of course you'll want to reserve some of your energy and voice for the late night, early morning informal sessions.

I am curious to hear what the Paddy Westers do. I believe this relatively new group is led by Richard Burbank, aka the Chantey Chef, from Rockport, Maine.

There's really much too much going on all week-end, hard choices to be made, but if you love this kind of music it's sure the place to be.
