First full practice this Wednesday.
This'll be fun.I was in a trio with our leader in the late 70s and in a band with the bass and fiddle/keyboard players 5-6 years ago.
A new combination of old pals.
Being a banjo picker, Lobster Rolls would be apropos.
Moltin' lava
I tried.
Folk-In-A
We've got the big lobster here
Different kind.Not much of a set of claws on those.
Tail probably tastes good,though
Maine catches 78% of lobsters caught as of 2023 with 4,100 license holders according to NOAA.
Maine and Massachusetts together account for 93% of lobsters landed annually.
Ours are called The Southern Rock Lobster but we know them as Crayfish
Coming back from a gig in Eastport, driving along the coast of Maine, I wanted to treat the band to a nice 2lb lobster dinner! Surprise - none available. Owner said 'Ayhuh, all 'em big ones go down south to ya fancy folks".
I dunno, Al .... maybe some of 'em found their way to Lundar, MB. https://www.instagram.com/p/DLi-qBuOlIQ/ though I suspect theirs likely came from Nova Scotia. Until I saw that ^^ link I was unaware that Lundar had a lobsterfest. In any event I was m-a-n-y miles away .... and I didn't hear any BG music. 
[But there was a small pipe-and-drums contingent in the Binscarth Canada Day parade.

You can get whatever size you want when you buy directly off the boat.
Short,medium and large lobsters all taste the same.I've never heard of all 2 pounders being sent south,but I only went lobstering for 50 years.
Our Rockland Lobster Festival has had a good amount of known performers over the years.
Willie head-lined in 2000.
