Lively Night at the Galloise

The AudeShantyMen raise the roof at La Galloise!

Friday night's gig at the Café in Alaigne started somewhat disappointingly for the Crew. Greybeard et. al. were hoping for a balmy early summer's evening so as to be able to sing outdoors : alas the cold, rainy weather put paid to that! However the atmosphere in the bar was as warm as ever and our gallant Shipmates responded by giving a rousing performance and by encouraging the appreciative crowd to sing heartily in the choruses of the songs they knew and requested - which they did with gusto! Well done, everyone! A healthy total of  €105.00 was raised for our Lifeboat charities, for which the AudeShantyMen are truly grateful. Likewise a massive vote of thanks to Lin and Les for looking after the band so very well. Always a pleasure to be berthed once again in one of our "home" ports!
