Cliff recently uncovered some photos from our 1990 amateur photo-shoot for a promotional article regarding a show we were about to do at the British Arts Museum in New Haven. Bob Stepno wasn’t available for the photos but did do the the show with us.
With regrets, the band is taking this evening off. Joseph reached out to indicate that he had lost his voice with a sinus issue, only to have Mike have a similar complaint. Then Rick also was having issues including coughing… So we agreed to take the evening off. We’ll be back for the next Monday!
Nice night even though it fell on a Sunday this year…
December is here and so, too, the yuletide season. Remember that at the Gris, there will be “wandering carolers” in the establishment, so we start an hour later, playing from 9p to 11p.
Have a safe and exceedingly happy holiday season! Join us during this month, and come back with the new year! We’ll be off on Christmas but return New years Day!
Very recently we lost one of our closer friends: Tod Raynor. His obit is via this link below.
On Wednesday the 26th July, The Jovial Crew performed for Colin McEnroe and his show yesterday, discussing sea chanteys although not enough time to get into sufficient details – the episode will air on WNPR on Wednesday, 3 Aug, at 1p.
Perhaps we’re the victims of our own success, perhaps it’s just because you love us so! Summer Mondays have become a bit over crowded and insane! With has come some less social behaviour on the part of one or two. We love you being there and singing along and we love the wonderful staff of the Griswold Inn. Please exercise your better natures and be kind and considerate to the staff and to each other, and come to sing! Leave loud conversations to the outside patio! And with the overcrowding in an early 19th century tap room, we are obligated to keep under a certain number, per the fire marshal. Come early for a chance at a seat, but don’t be too surprised should someone at the door turn away people when the room gets full. Hey, it’s summer!
