Ah good show, I love sea shanties as they have that traditional British isles sound to them, which of course was also a staple in North America during the late 18th and 19th century.

I see you served your country as well. I have to respect that. I had friends who tried coaxing me into joining the Naval reserves years ago, but I couldn't stomach the idea of four hours sleep aboard a ship for weeks...that and sleeping with a cabin full of guys. Besides I was a fly boy when I was younger, switching to the Navy would be a downgrade
