Hyde St. Pier chanties still going on?

topic posted Wed, November 7, 2007 - 12:20 PM by  Betsy
Hi there -
Does anyone know if they're still doing sea chanties down @ Fisherman's Wharf on the Hyde Street Pier once or twice a month? Or do you know where to go (website or a ph. #) to find out?
Thanks!

    My best recommendation is to try www.mudcat.org - go into the forums and ask around there.

    I stopped tracking the Sings when I stopped being in the Bay regularly, but a moderately large amount of participants (including one of the organizers, goes by Chanteyranger if I remember correctly) post on that forum.
