I'm heading to Baltimore for a job interview on Feb 25 & heading home on the 27. I'm looking to find out if there's any music going on during those evenings. Thanks for any direction. Barry

Barry,

Your place or mine? We have enough 'catters' in Baltimore to make our own music. But I will check for public performances. I assume you are driving down so transportation isn't a problem. The public transportation in Baltimore is pretty weak.

Barry,

This is Mary Cliff's list for those nights. She's the local Folk Goddess with a weekly 4 hour show on Public Radio. If it isn't on here, it probably isn't happening.

By the way, I wasn't kidding about getting together. We may not be able to do it at my house 'cause Marge would make me do a week's worth of cleaning first, but we may be able to do it somewhere.

If I recall, the sea chanters get together in suburban DC on Wednesday nights at the Royal Pub or something.

Hi Roger

Thanks for all the info. I won't be driving, they've already taken care of all the flight arrangements & no car rental because I'll be attending a conference & the interview will be at the Holiday Inn right at the BWI airport, where they've booked me a room. I don't really know the schedule yet so it's sort of a fly by the seat of my pants deal. I figured if there's something going on at least I can try to work it out. Hate to be down your way & miss all of the talent. A sea music session at the Royal Mile Pub if it's on Wed eve would be heaven, even worth a nights car rental. Say hi to Marge

Thanks Barry

Barry,

I will PM you with contact information for me. I offer any Mudcatter's in the area to contact me with a PM. Maybe we can get a group together.

Roger-

Best wishes from Stevens Bunker and the China Sea Marine Trading Co, gang. We've just helped them restablish a storefront for their used nautical goods in Portland's Old Port.

I'll be hanging out in Baltimore myself in September for a week. Be nice to get together with some sea music folks, see if we could stir up some old waterfront ghosts.

Have fun, Barry!

Cheerily,
Charley Noble

Gee, Barry, I hope you get the job!!!!! We'd love to see more of you--and then you could go to ALL the pub sings at the Royal Mile.
Best of luck, friend.

Franklin's Brew Pub in Hyattsville, on Rt. 1, just outside DC, is having a party ( anniversary of bar) all day the 25th... The have jazz planned at 10pm, but we could hijack it... Happy hour all day, with half priced appetizers...
