Entry #4 - Harbour Symphony

On Monday I was still in fits of laughter from Sean Panting's "Everybody Else is a Whiner," so much so that I was raving about it to just about anyone who would listen. So when I was assigned a partner to play the Harbour Symphony with a girl I had never met before, and I was going on about the "skeetier" line, and everything else, imagine my surprise when I learned this was Andrea Hann, Sean's wife! Good thing I really liked it - if I had been trashing it, I think it would have been a bit awkward.

Today's Symphony bears what I think is the best title I've heard in a long time: "Knock Knock, Who's There: Charley Pride" by Ed Squires. That's just pure. And you could really hear the Charley Pride influence, especially in the icebreaker part...I thought so anyway.

Andrea, it turns out, had never played the Harbour Symphony before, so naturally I had her toot the horn, just as Darryl allowed me to do last Friday. She's a nice person, we had a very good chat, and it was a good laugh. The crew were very friendly too - we had a good yak with the captain, who seemed rather amused by the whole Harbour Symphony thing.
