Salty's

Just outside the port facilities proper, this bar in a converted warehouse offers live music provided by locals with musical ambitions and varying degrees of talent. Dockyard workers drink here, exchanging stories of dodgy shipments and slippery customers. When the audience appreciates the entertainment, a visiting tourist might enjoy a pleasant evening. When a singer or band isn’t well received, the audience makes it clear through vicious comments and thrown drinks. Salty requires his hard-drinking crowd to run a tab for their drinks and keeps their credit accounts on file. He sometimes makes mistakes when tallying up the evening’s totals, although this happens more with strangers to the bar than with locals.
