Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Charley Noble Date: 04 Sep 08 - 09:12 PM Very sad to think of the Minerva being drunk dry. Would there be a song? Cheerily, Charley Noble |

From: JeZeBeL Date: 05 Sep 08 - 07:32 AM We were going to go until my father decided to be very inconsiderate and have his birthday this weekend....and then my almost sister in law decided to give birth to our first nephew the other day so we have to go visit them on Sunday..... Some people just don't think do they!! :) |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Les from Hull Date: 05 Sep 08 - 08:19 AM Oh yes Mick, I might join you for a small sherry about that time. |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: GUEST,buspassed Date: 05 Sep 08 - 09:06 AM That Hull pub map is well out of date, just on Beverley Rd. there are two pubs missing Zach Pearsons and the Bevvy. The Turnpike is now a Lidl and Hockneys has closed . Just noticed the last update was 2001! |

Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Steve Gardham Date: 06 Sep 08 - 03:15 PM Plenty of water anyway. I prefer to look down on it in the marina though. |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: danensis Date: 08 Sep 08 - 07:08 AM Although I only managed to get to the second day of the Festival (after a very wet trip down on Syntan on the Friday) I would like to say how much I enjoyed it, especially the singaround in the Minerva.

Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Jane of 'ull Date: 08 Sep 08 - 08:37 AM I really enjoyed the festival this year. Its the first time I've been and spent enough time there to experience it. It inspired me no end - The acts were pure quality. well done to the organisers and anyone else involved. |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Linda Kelly Date: 08 Sep 08 - 03:16 PM I had a great time didnt think it posible for a human to absorb that much rain water, but dried off by Sunday evening-enjoyed the singing especially on Syntan and in the Minerva. |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Jane of 'ull Date: 08 Sep 08 - 05:49 PM I didn't catch all of the open air performance but I especially liked: Scold's Bridle - their song 'Molly' brought tears to me eyes - Monkey's Orphan, who did 'Fire Down Below'? (it appeals to my scat sense of humour)! and 3 Sheets to the Wind - they sang one that went something like 'a sailor's not a sailor any more?' does anyone know the origins of this song? Jane :) |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Les from Hull Date: 08 Sep 08 - 05:56 PM That would be this song by Tom Lewis. Maggie and I had a great time (as usual), and particular thanks to the 'Anti Shantiers' in the Minerva on Saturday night. |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Jane of 'ull Date: 08 Sep 08 - 06:01 PM Cheers Les - now I can sing along next year! |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: danensis Date: 09 Sep 08 - 06:11 AM Another irony was the song that suggested that when there was no more fishing, the men could get jobs as miners. John |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: ossonflags Date: 11 Sep 08 - 06:28 AM Bit o good stuff here: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UQ24pvoefeA |
Subject: RE: Hull Shanty Festival - Anyone Going? From: Steve Gardham Date: 11 Sep 08 - 02:09 PM Jane, Might be wrong but I think the song's one of Tom Lewis's. |
