He's telling a lesson. He teaches the folk to do a "long haul" shanty they pull in time after 30 secs training through a song.. That's how they rolled, or pulled back in the day. "What shall we do with the drunken sailor," is a short haul shanty.. Different rhythms for different jobs. All about keeping time. I love this.
@@MrTalkingCorn Maybe if you try to get more into Shantys, Do yourself a favor, and try to hear some "calll & response" songs from chain gangs. (Would be more interessting if it where older, but thats as old as it gets with audio. :D) There is an interessting simmilarity... ;)

aw come one guys the woman was really sweet I think for actually participating like HE WANTED TO. He asked and no one answers, so she just volunteered and now everyone says 'she annoys them.' That's so odd to me. And her not actually 100% pulling the rope is probably because of back problems, at one point in the video she I think tells him she can't do it like that so 'she will do it like this.' She just acts confident, but thats totally fine, more power to her.
Yeah, I liked her too. I'm a rennie at Texas Ren Fest, as well as several others, and audience participation is crucial to many of the acts at these types of shows.
She's great! She has a tag on, so she's a festival volunteer. She jumped in because nobody else did; way to break the ice for others and not leave David hanging. She looks very self-conscious in the beginning; I'd say not accustomed to public performance. She spends most of her time watching David closely, probably worried that she hasn't got the movements quite right. But her joy once she settles in is wonderful.
Your man with the notepad at 2.25 makes me die. Yep. I'm hauling, I'm hauling. Hold on, I'm just writing this shit down. 'Dear Aunt Louise, since you moved to Australia, things have picked right up here in Portsmouth. Kevin is feeling much better and Sarah has a new job. Hold tight. *does hauling arms.* So yeh, it's all good news. How's Adelaide? Working on the suntan? It's a bit grey here back in Blighty. Oop. Hold on. Two secs. *does hauling arms*
+Pickens Incorporated Ah I wasn't criticising, it just made me laugh. I think the video is great. I know it's at a folk festival so it's not exactly a random crowd but they sound great. Nice to see some positive music.
+kingofblades Not sure I'm clear what you mean. I've been pretty clear i wasn't insulting anyone. I've really enjoyed the music since finding it. It just made me laugh a little. Also can you clear up what you mean by his 'predecessors'? Do you mean everyone who's ever lived before him? I'm a little unclear. I had a little look at your profile to try and guess what you meant. Was is a misunderstanding? I see your favourited videos are 'Overwatch . Rip Butt'. , 'New Nigerian Queen of Vagina' and 'Milo explains why you're all wrong about anti semitism' I'd love to know more about what you can share with me about my predecessors, and his, and well, I suppose everyones. Nice to meet you I cant wait for the enlightenment to strike. (Dont worry theres no zombies, its not Fox New's) Like the Hat in the profile pic btw it suits you very well. You look very gallant. If you get a chance please fill me in a bit more on British and World Folk sea shanty traditions. Let me tell you I'm an empty cup just waiting to be filled. I'll be voting for Trump too. Well I wont but let's hope all our antecedents are.
This man is amazingly charismatic. I saw his Roll The Old Chariot performance and am on the hunt for more like it. You can put this guy just about anywhere in the world with a crowd and everyone would be having a good time. Would love to be walking down the street and see this. It just makes you want to be apart of it.
Love every part of this! David Coffin is the guy everyone wants to know and the participants great sports. Any criticisms written below are people who have lost their Joie de vie!
What's interesting about this is that's probably just about enough maritime culture and 'nautical mindedness' in Portsmouth that when he said, 'raise your starboard hand' (about 1:30) most people knew which hand he meant.

1:20 well if he could restrain himself from mimicking stereotypical "girly" mannerisms in an attempt at making misogyny funny, that would be greatly appreciated
@@em-jd4do I agree with you that the people calling her annoying are wrong but I don't really see how him making a joke about acting "girly" is bad? It's a halyard shanty meant to be sung by men working on ships, it definitely not meant to sung in anything less than a loud strong voice. He's just having a little fun while at the same time correcting them.
2:28 When you have an English essay due tomorrow but someone started playing sea shanties
This took me a moment... 😂
HAHA

Hahahahahaha nice
Guy might have failed his essay but enjoyed an A+ sea shanty.

Her attitude was wholesome, her inability to follow instructions was less so.

Honestly, He has an amazing pair of pipes I'm almost jealous.
watching this clip for years. Still love it
I love this guy!!:D:D I saw in in the"Roll the old chariot" and I want to visit such festival from now on :D

I fucking love sea shanties

I'm using this for my boy scout camp skit with my troop... thank you David Coffin
I would love to go to one of these. All the excited energy would make me giddy
song starts at 1:55 if you want to skip to it, but I'd recommend watching the first part, its really interesting
This is something I would of loved to experience..... And Mr. Coffin has a hellava voice !
Why couldn't I have discovered this at more social hours
Outstanding!
Woops I clapped and cheered sitting in my living room :))))
the guy in the background, with the white beard and red shirt is in everyone of these and as killing it
Super voice !

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant ! :D
Can you come to Portsmouth England our council are destroying our maritime history.maybe you can revive it.
Another casuaIty to woketardism.
sea shanties 2021 and no one can deny it
This guy is great :D
Glad to see a journalist in the crowd ... Or an ethnomusicologist getting down both the words and the choreography.
awesome! really awesome
We need this in portugal
Same energy here, overseas, meu caro patrício.
Loved it!
1:56 is when the song starts.

The joes are powerful you can tell
that dude is an absolute BOMB!
fantastic.
"are your arm broken?" ahahaha
That lady is a sweetheart!
You had to be sailing on a historic tall ship to fully understand the sea shanties
What a voice. We’ll done me lad
best Dad?
The woman annoys me for not participating properly.
I'm Him Same
she got a dress on so
i meant it would rip if she "joed" all the way
tf that got to do with anything
breaking the law isn't the same as not participating in a shanty. dumb
My man, Stephen King doing the right moves. Props.
The brits that never left the new land.
Question why does he pronounce revolution like "revolut-shy-on?
thatguy2366 So it would scan and rhyme with "const-it-to-shy-on"
thatguy2366 It's just the way the songs were originally sung back then.
Look at crap pronunciations in todays music for Christs sake!
Because sailors had a tendency to preserve older pronunciations, and the '-tion' ending used to be two syllables.
WOWWWWW
Тянем потянем, вытянуть не можем.
Some kind of oldschool group dabbing.
youtube rewind
>The woman annoys me for not participating properly.
She probably had her reasons, back problems perhaps.
+Denynn lol its all I can think of...she isn't doing shit to help pull that rope
+Allen Straka Actually, if they were pulling ropes she would have the better form. She's dropping her weight onto the rope instead of straining her arms.
thats what i was thinking either that. ... or maybe she is just stupid
I love the style of the gal
aye, ye landlubbers jest made 300

We haul.
