Subject: Anybody seen Derek Seed From: alanww Date: 25 Oct 01 - 07:59 AM As one of his shanty-singing Shellback Chorus, I am missing him! Has anyone seen him? It is rumoured that he should be somewhere in the USA, having attended the recent Gathering ... I thought I heard the old man say ... ! |

Subject: RE: BS: Anybody seen Derek Seed From: alanww Date: 25 Oct 01 - 02:17 PM Yes, Stuart, I'm sure he is a regular in Sussex but, at present, I thinks he's lost somewhere in the USA! And because he's not into computers and the internet, I just hope he's safe. (And that he manages to bring back some shanty festival bookings for the Shellback Chorus!) My bonnie lies over the ocean ... ! |

Subject: RE: BS: Anybody seen Derek Seed From: GUEST,Barry at work Date: 25 Oct 01 - 04:10 PM Not lost & having & hopefully having a great visit. He was at the local singing session last night (10/24 Paddy Burke's, Boston) with his wife. He was in great form & voice & it would suprise me if you' have any reason to worry. They were left in the good hands of sometime poster, Judy Predmore (S.P.? sorry Judy). They were also left in good company with hands fully loaded & thirst well quenched. Very nice & friendly people, glad to have have them at the club & to have met them. Barry |

Subject: RE: BS: Anybody seen Derek Seed From: Abuwood Date: 26 Oct 01 - 05:15 AM We want a US Tour! But what is the beer like? Alison, Steve & Theresa |

Subject: RE: BS: Anybody seen Derek Seed From: alanww Date: 26 Oct 01 - 06:05 AM Yes I'm certainly hoping for a US tour! And if you are worried about the beer, don't! Its OK in the mini brewery pubs - at least in New England where I went with the Chameleonic Morris Men in 1999! Ale, ale, glorious ale ... |

Subject: RE: BS: Anybody seen Derek Seed From: Suffet Date: 26 Oct 01 - 06:44 AM Yes. Lancashireman Derek Seed was at the New York Pinewoods Folk Music Club's fall weekend in Connecticut this past weekend (Oct. 19-21, 2001). While he led only one or two workshops, his presence was everywhere, particularly at the informal singing sessions that lasted well into the wee hours of the morning. Derek has a wonderfully rich voice, an extensive repertoire, and a style of delivery that is at once both informative and entertaining. If you get the chance hear him, go do so! --- Steve |
