I have just returned from the St. Augustine Pirate Gathering. While there were a few bumps in the road, I had a fantastic time with my pirate family, some I had not seen in MANY years, and found myself packing up Sunday wishing I could extend the trip to spend more time there. But reality returns and now here is my most likely long-winded weekend in review. Drop Dead, Great Scott and I arrived at the Spanish Quarter on Thursday with about 45 minutes to spare before sunset. We rushed to get our tents up and get things ready for the night. The process went mostly pain-free thanks to the help of folks already on site. We did a little provisioning and then enjoyed time aroun…

I would like to invite all to visit us here in St Augustine Florida for the St Augustine Pirate Gathering this November. If you haven't been to this Historical hamlet before allow us to give you a glimpse of the oldest continually lived in city in North America. It is because of the enduring work of re-enacting groups based in this town (Men of Menedez, Garrison, Men/women of Ponce De Leon, Ancient City Privateers with Crew of the Black Heart and not forgetting the brilliant crews of British Nightwatch) that we are able to do our live battles downtown amongst the backdrop of buildings footprinted in the late 1500 and early 1600's......450 years of history 300+ under the …

This is our Krewe's Spring Rendezvous event that we do anyway. This year we just thought we'd make it a little (ok, a lot) bigger so we could invite all of you. After years of volunteering, attending and advising countless events, we thought it was high time we did our own. Our Shore Leave weekend is all about you being a part of the event, not just an attendee. We would like you to take part in the events as if they were your own. Our scheduled events are all free to attend and your participation is encouraged. As you will see, our events are about the individuals and the roles they play in Shore Leave weekend. We are not looking to make money; we are looking to make he…

My e-vile gaming ways have distracted me from piracy... ... suffice to say, pirate reenactors and militia reenactors will be shooting at each other this coming Saturday at the Lock House Museum in Havre de Grace, Maryland. If you find yourself dressed as a pirate or a woman of the town or a militiaman this Saturday, and have nothing better to do, feel free to join in the fray. Bill and Ted's Excellent Tavern will be there again this year, and I believe we'll see a special appearance by the Polish Light Artillery. Also, the Lantern Queen will be running a special Pirate Cruise that evening. http://www.lanternqueen.com/Scheduleoctdec.htm PM me for more info.

So, I got a call from a friend last night telling me that while going to an art show opening in downtown Hollywood, he had suddenly been besieged by pirates! It seems that Camelot Days ( http://www.camelotdays.com/info.html ) has returned to TY Park. I have never been to this particular ren fest, so I cannot vouch for it...but I may go and check it out anyway. Anyone else planning on going?

If we want to join in the parade is there anything special that we need to do? We just have a banner and a wagon for the smaller "bilge rats" to ride in, no fancy floats or decorated cars, just something for the kids to carry and ride in and throw candy and goodies. No set up what so ever. Thanks again for the help.

Here is the link to the fort's site: http://www.ftdechartres.com/page/page/5964768.htm Come out and help us show support for this great site and event. The state of Illinois is threatening to close most of it's historic sites and lay off the workers due to a pissing contest between the irresponsible governor and the state legislature. Many of us have already written e-mails and letters to both sides expressing our concern and reminding them of how much money is generated at the sites and how it affects local economies. we also circulated several petitions and so far we gained an extention of the closing date from Oct. 1st to November. This is a big event and lots of…

Just a few thoughts on the event in NC. IT WAS A GREAT TIME FOR ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Between crowds that seemed truly interested i and wanted to interact with both pyrates and history and the fun that the crews had in interacting with them. Even in the early morning hours the public started to pass through the camps to see what the pirates were doing at the moment. The invasion itself seemed to be a huge success and pictures will be posted as people are able... least i hope so . Callenish and meself will post what we have when we get home. The crews did a grand job with all of the interaction between five differnt crews and 100 + pirates seemed to be flawless, t…

So, having heard about this for a couple of years now, exactly *who* does one have to e-mail or call to get information about being one of the lucky performers for this cruise? I've gotten no where with my attempts to contact the cruise line or the performers who had the information on their website (the e-mail came back from Mailer Daemon as undeliverable). Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ever so much! Emerald

On Nov.3-4, and Nov. 10-11, the last major faire of the year happens. Even though it states Ren-faire, there is Pirates Cove where some really good groups are like Pirates of Treasure Cove and Stranglehold. The event goes on regardless of rain (hence the nick-name Escondido "Rain" faire) which seems to always threaten the event. I will be selling my wares with my friend and you can find us right along the sidewalk across from the ale garden. Hope to see some of you there!
