This one almost slipped by unnoticed by me. You’ll be fascinated by the website. AAAARGH! June 20-21st www.norcalpiratefestival.com
We all love sea shanteys. Dress up.-lots of stuff for kids. Some venerable performers I’ve sung with (or along side of) for years at Renaissance and Dickens fairs. Don’t miss Dogwatch Nautical Band. These folks have zeroed in on sea music for as long as I’ve done Sing Thing and longer (since many of them were performing where and when I was in my youth). I just couldn’t choose one genre of traditional music, but they did and they are the experts. Did I mention that it is free? It is and so is the Salmon-Aid Festival. (Thank goodness there are two days this weekend-one day for each festival.)
