I travel to a lot of reenactments, but I don't go to very many pirate festivals/ren fairs. I know there are more differences than just the clothes. At most events there's an admission fee, no matter how you're dressed. If it's a camping event, there may be a camping fee and if you're selling there, you might have a vendor fee. I run a pirate event and the state sponsorship has been, shall we say "borrowed" by our fine governor to put into roads. (How far is $1000 going to go to repairing roads? It would be put to better use paying for a pirate weekend!) So what I want to know is: What are the highest and lowest camp fees you pay and of what type? For example: As a…

Ello mates, as the titel says, I'm new to the pub. I've been a member of keeptothecode for a little while now and learned about this place from my friend Nick. Anyway, my name is Janty, but my friends call me Jants and I'm a costume/prop maker and most recentely put together a Sparrow costume. I posted some pictures in the "Raid" section, but learned that I should come to this section and say ahoy! Here's some pics and pics of my first real pirate event are in the other section mentioned earlier. Cheers! Pictures of who I am and the work I've done are below my signature, feel free to friend-request me, I won't bite... much.

after posting a few questions and being pointed to previously posted info , i started to realize something. i would read beforehand to see if the topic was covered. finding none ( sometimes i miss one ) , i would post the question only to discover that it has been covered. but here is the grand revelation..... those posts do NOT show up on the board for some wierd reason, and are archived elsewhere. this is when the search function can be used. i have tried to find the threads that i am given links to, but they are not there. they only show up if i do a search. are they archived , and the board only shows the most recent posts ?? may sound dumb, but so…

Ahoy Mateys! Just want to say ahoy to everyone. I've been a member forever, but never posted anything- and I figured now was a good time to rectify that situation. They call me the Pilsner Pyrate, in honor of two of me great loves in life- beer and pirating lol. I be a charter member of the Pyrates of the Gulf Coast out of Bradenton, Florida. I've been with the Krewe since it started, and was with another Krewe prior to that... been pirating about 12 years now. That's about it for now. The Florida Heritage Festival Grand Parade is this weekend, and I probably should get finished prepping for it, before the pre-parade party Friday night. Thanks fer havin' me aboard!

Well kids, I'm back! We took over 700 hundred pictures before the picture card in the camera was filled up and we didn't have another camera card to put it, so Boats was taking pictures with his cell phone camera. What an incredible time, from the day we left to the day we came home we got to see things we would have never seen had we not gone. Pyrate Con was outstanding! I don't know the official count of how many 'paid' pirates there were, but there certainly were plenty there who didn't pay at the con - names not to be mentioned ...ever. The parade on Saturday of the con was 4 blocks long and the streets and balconies on Bourbon Street were filled with people. What …

We are complimented and very humbled by your review BilgeMonkey.... Thanks so much mate! From every member of the New Providence band (most especially the HARP player who is posting this on every venue he can find.....) Genre: Traditional and traditional-styled origninal pirate tunes. Rating: PG Target Audience: Late teens to early retirement Down Among the Dead Men - the first album by Pirates of New Providence - hits the ground running with its initial track, Fire Maringo. Being a traditional song, I've heard it performed before, and have never really given it much thought. But the Pirates of New Providence make it a tough song to dismiss. Strong, clear vo…

been lurking about for abit , and have decided that instead of rum, everyone gets a round of tequila shooters and/or a vodka'ed-up fruit drink of their choice anyway, im rather a fan of pirates, always have been, and shows like POTC add to it, with characters like Sparrow and Barbossa, among others. also, im keen to try my hand at pirate reenacting, and i cant much think of a better place than Charleston, SC. The only thing i haven't decided on, is weather or not to go for all out fantasy (though not to the point of silliness and absurdity), or try to retain a level of realism and accuracy, and if so, how much? questions? comments? keelhaulings?

One of the guys that hangs around our shop and forges stuff just started collecting oldddd jewelry. He just picked up this awsome bronze skull ring found in the Bolcans. From all the other stuff it was found with is was dated from 400 AD to 700 AD. I am still trying to steal it from him. Can't find a better pirate ring if you ask me. Anyone else out there into old rings and such like this ? I am getting the bug real bad.

I'm leaving early Sunday morning, April 13, and heading east, by car. We are going first to Tombstone, Arizona, then onto Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico, see sights along the way through Texas and into Louisiana for the Con. Afterwards we're heading for Amarillo, Texas where Boat's son lives, then through New Mexico, Santa Fe, Taos, up into Colorado, over to 4 Points, down through Arizona again, then up to Las Vegas and the Luxor (they made us a deal on a spa suite we couldn't pass up), then home on May 3. We have reservations at a dozen or so state campgrounds along the way; we sleep in the van. Though a couple of places we are hotel/motel-ing it due to no campgrounds…

A number of Rumors have come to our Attention regarding Pirates for Sail and the crew of the Drunken Ferret. As a Ship's Officer and Senior Crewmember, I would like to Respond to them for the Captain, Officers, and Crew as a whole to hopefully put an End to these Falsehoods. As we Understand it, the Several Tales spreading throughout the Pyrate, Reenactment, and Renfaire Communities are: • Pirates for Sail are Stealing Members from other Ships. • The Community of Pyrates are upset that Pirates for Sail obtained a Letter of Marque from the Maryland Renaissance Festival (MDRF) without being a SCA or Guilde ship. • A Member of Pirates for Sail got into a Fight at the Mar…
