The lumber ship C. A. Thayer is back at the Maritime Park pier in San Francisco after years of restoration. Does this mean that the monthly chantey sings will return to the Thayer's hold? Nothing against the Balclutha, but sitting on metal folding chairs is just not the same as sitting on ship's timbers. And I believe the Thayer's hold has (had?) better acoustics. Can't make a blue clicky (tried three times) so here's the story address: http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/04/13/BAGH9P7VQN1.DTL Now if only someone would come up with enough millions to restore the Wapama in SF and the Wawona in Seattle! Is this a BS thread, Joe?
BS thread? Nope - the Thayer is one of the nicest music venues I know of. See you there soon, I hope. -Joe Offer-
