Let’s Start October With Cliff!

Welcome to my favourite month and a less sweaty season!  Pirate Monday is behind us and now we look forward to our Halloween on Monday the 27th… More on that as we get closer.

Meanwhile – Cliff is back!  He’ll return to regular Monday nights although he’s still be careful.  Also this coming Monday I understand will be a homecoming for two important peoples of our followers and promises to be a hopping night!  Then, the Wednesday after – 8 Oct – we’ll be at our favourite New Haven haunt The Gryphon Pub at GPSCY!!  2 for 1 beer night and quite the scene!  Come join us, especially those of you who complain of the travel from that area!  9 until midnight, a modest cover charge (helps pay us!), and plenty of song!

Thank you for all the participation on our Pirate Monday – although there was no sight of Jack Sparrow this year.  We have photos up – Cliff came on down for a little while and sang a song but he’s pacing himself.  And it was a memorable night all ’round!

Subscriptions

Some of you may have noted that there is not longer a subscription option.  Our regrets, however part of what is suspected of having crashed our site was the sheer number of subscription “bots” that had been hammering away trying to break into the site.  The point of the subscription option was to automatically send you a memo whenever we posted a new page or such and I understand that this simply was not happening.  This makes the option superfluous as well as tempting to trolls trying to screw things up.  If you wish to continue receiving the monthly-odd updates and notifications, please send me your e-mail address and I will put it in our secret address locker, sending the updates via blind copy as has been done in the past.

Don’t forget that the Monday of 22 Sept. will be our “Pirate Night” by request, in acknowledgement of the annual Talk like A Pirate day.  Come down attired in appropriate pirate and wench costume as sing the night away!  And Cliff may stick his head in for a little while, too!

Remember that our day will be the following Monday the 22d!

September Happenings

Welcome to the end of summer!  It has been a rather comfortable one for weather for the most part… last night and today sucks but we’ll get past that.

Last night – Labour Day – was rather good for some of our calmer, nicer songs.  And we had a surprise guest in the audience – Mickley Dolenz, who is in an upcoming show at the Ivoryton Playhouse called “Comedy Is Hard”    He sang along with us from his vantage point at the bar and even took a pic with our own Abby –
