Subject: RE: Music at Greenwich Maritime Museum 2013 From: sciencegeek Date: 29 Jul 13 - 09:45 AM sigh... would love to attend, but no chance this year. Maybe they'll make some CDs or DVDs for future fundraising. Did make it to the relaunching of the Charles W Morgan, so 2013 isn't a complete washout... LOL How about Topic releasing Valiant Sailor on CD!?! It is waaaay overdue. |
