  • For the past two years the Maine National Guard has volunteered their expertise in the restoration of the Life Saving Station off the coast of Kittery Point, ME. During their stay a dinner is held in their honor. This year Sea Shanty singer David Coffin led the men and women in song.

    I haven't been in a social gathering for 6 years. I never ever thought that I'd see men in ☮️ but it isn't over we ARE going to find out where that road goes! Gentlemen I'm crying my eyes out. I've been singing these songs about 38 years ago. God bless all and music is the weapon of our future!

      My dad used to sing Blow The Man Down to us when we were little. My sister and I would call back in song with him. That was about 35 years ago.
      I searched out this song so I can sing it to him again.
      Unfortunately he can't speak anymore and his time is very short. But life is beautiful and sweet and music has a way of soothing the soul.

    Living near Alexandria, Virginia, that old town has almost as many Irish bars and pubs than any town in Ireland. And Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, every damn one has live artists and bands singing every drinking song and sea shanty you could possibly think of. It is literally packed wall to wall singing drunks in every one. You would think they were competing. Then it turns into one huge pub crawl. This is every weekend of the year and some are cop bars, some fireman bars. Don't confuse them !! Then on New Years Eve they host First Night where every pub and restaurant has one group or another playing about a 25 minute show every half hour. You buy one ticket and it gets you in everywhere, but that is set up more family friendly. Usually that is alcohol free until 10pm and the kiddos go home. Most of the buildings are even origional to the late 18th century. It is perfectly insane and everyone needs to experience it at least once.

    They were copying his left which is port (not all men) but the atmosphere resembles real ship life. This is amazing. Glad to come across this video.
    By the way, I did sail with my friend quite a bit in SC so I know sailing terms yet was in no way talking sh**. Fraternal songs helped create the new world. Can’t say how lovely and needed this was for me.

Honestly, “council any man that doesn’t conform to unit activities” Not singing a shanty in their downtime should count as a professional infraction? the fuck is wrong with you?? Get over yourself already

      Dude, relax. Most appear to be drinking. Not an official function. Don't take life so seriously. They're not swimming into the surf saving a life. They're singing and drinking, or not singing and not drinking. They're having fun. You must be a fan of mandatory morale.
