There is a singing session at Paddy Burke's in Boston on Wed. evenings. Shanty sessions, haven't found one yet. Tried starting one years ago, no interest. The last shanty session in Boston that I knew of was on board the replica of the HMS Rose called, yes the HMS Rose, probably 25 years ago. Do a forum search for more info on Paddy Burke's or e-mail me. If youdo find one could you let me know, Thanks, Happy Hunting, Barry
