My Pious Friends and Drunken Companions for the 21st Century
Home ~ What This Was ~ What This Is ~ Get Involved ~ Mammoth Gardens

We are dedicating ourselves to the preservation and promotion of the songs collected by Frank Shay in the 1927 version of My Pious Friends and Drunken Companions (MPF&DC) and 1928 version of More Pious Friends and Drunken Companions (MPF&DC2). What we think we know about the two books of MPF&DC. What we think we know about prohibition and Connecticut. What we think we know about Frank Shay. What we think we know about the mid-1920s. And now we turn to what we're doing to save these works for the 21st Century.
