Review | Seas the Night with Yächtley Crew

A silly, fun, and trippy evening aboard the good ship Yacht Rock.

Review | Seas the Night with Yächtley Crew

Climbing onboard with Yächtley Crew at last weekend’s show at the Arlington was a trip in all sorts of ways. The number of permutations of captain’s hats — from traditional white to Hawaiian prints, golf themes, regatta flags, and glittery versions that wouldn’t have been out of place in a Michael Jackson show — was impressive.

The age range was also a bit broader than I was expecting. When the first ten people I ran into were parents I knew from my son’s elementary school days, I thought, this is going to be like a PTA party. But there were groups of 20-somethings in front of us, a few folks in the upper upper middle age region, and even some parents with their elementary school kids on their shoulders.

The one thing we all had in common that night was we all knew ALL of the songs on the playlist, and almost all of the lyrics!
