We will be performing as part of this years Music in the City.
I’m hoping for a great turnout and a dry day!
We are performing in the Guildhall Square in the Centre of the City.
I will be there from 13.00 looking after my Secret Eastleigh Choir who are also performing.
I will be based in The Arts Cafe which is 2 minutes walk away.
We are 2 Shanty Men down so we will be looking at deputies for each “spare”, sharing verses or I will take up the slack. We can decide all this at our Monday rehearsal. Don’t worry if you can’t make Monday’s rehearsal, might be a bit late or haven’t been for a while, we want your bodies!
Please remember to wear your Steam Town Teeshirts if you have them. If you don’t then make sure you come to Monday’s rehearsal
We will be singing 10 shanties in this order.
1- Drunken Sailor
2 – Hail Away Joe
3- Randy Dandy Oh!
4 – Bully in the Alley
5 – Spanish Ladies
6 – Santiana
7 – Keep Haulin’

All the lyrics can be found here if you want to print them or add them to an electronic device. I will have paper versions at Monday’s rehearsal.
