Why must a pirate be defined as someone wearing 18th century clothing?
Because Hollywood says so!

My short list of peeves;
People who extend acronyms with a word used in the acronym;
"ATM machine" (machine is the M... thank you...)
"PIN number" (number is the N thank you...)
"VIN number" (number is the N thank you...)
People who say "Tin foil"... (Aluminum foil thank you... Tin foil hasn't been around in decades...)...
People who use the word "then" when "than" would be correct within their writings...
People who open their mouths prior to engaging their brains...
And my current annoyance;
Bruno...

Welcome to the Pub!
I see your costuming goes towards the Steampunk fashion. You'll find a few here into that scene.
Sorry, not me, just not really my thing.
Hey there Rumba... no need t' be insultin'! I'm guessin' that ye had a bit too much rum...
Don't worry Varda... Anyone who has seen yer gear has noticed that there's no stupid brass pipes or dumb gears.
Ye may be a bit on the Hollywood side (like myself) but steampunk... No...
Welcome to the Pub... hope ye weren't too put off...

Pastimes Entertainment has announced that their 6th annual pirate
festival will take place in Gloucester this year at Stage Fort Park
during June 20-21.
The New England Pirate Faire has moved to America’s Oldest Seaport to
take advantage of the historical significance of Gloucester, as well
as to enjoy the oceanfront view afforded by Stage Fort Park.
The annual production debuted in 2004 and has been held every year
since in Salem.
Pastimes’ Creative Director David Stickney said the production’s move
to Gloucester will fulfill a long term goal for the company.
“Wherever you are at Stage Fort Park, you can see the ocean. The
realistic cannons at the park, the picturesque setting and the
historical relevance of the park offers us the perfect backdrop for a
pirate and sea-faring festival,” Stickney said.
Additionally, the move allows the company to expand the faire, which
will feature a cast of over 100 actors and musicians. The festival
will also host the “Tortuga Marketplace” for vendors offering pirate
clothing, prop weapons, accessories, jewelry, food, refreshments and
more.
The show will feature a scripted daylong storyline with several
interactive scenes with characters drawn from literature and a
different time.
The two-day event will be held on June 20 and June 21 from 10 a.m. to
5 p.m. Admission is $12 for adults, $10 for students, seniors and
guests with a military ID and $8 for children 4-12.
Stickney is working with Linn Parisi, owner of Over the Bridge Tours
of Cape Ann in order to facilitate a citywide celebration of all
things pirate.
"I'm thrilled for our City that The New England Pirate Faire wants to
call Gloucester its home. Stage Fort Park is a fabulous venue for
pirates young and old to enjoy a weekend of family fun. Plans are in
the works for Pirate Faire themed activities on land and sea to please
landlubbers, scallywags and privateers!" Parisi said.
Pastimes, an interactive theater production company based in Revere,
has been producing festivals and faires in the Boston area for over 15 years, including
the Castle of the Damned held annually at the Hammond Castle in Gloucester.

I know I am not an "Authentic"... nor am I tryin' t' be...
"Hollywood"... per'aps... Not that there's been one of me in a movie... yet...
(not t' worry... I don't find the "Hollywood" label an offensive one...)
I'm an old school Goth... an' I've loved Pirates me whole life...
I just gotta do things my own spooky way... an' so "WeirdBeard" th' Pirate was born...
I be under no illusions... It be th' clothes that make th' man...
Here be a few of th' pieces I made fer me spooky uber-pirate look;
Me hat;
Heavy wool felt an' Leather.
Me coat;
Close it up an th' lapels resemble a coffin... Do I need t' say "spooky" again?
A Bracer with me own Jolly Roger;
Inspired by 3 historic Jolly Rogers... just add a strange beard configuration...
A pair of crossed knife sheaths and assorted belts;
More of me leather...... Stop starin' at me butt...
An' me waistcoat;
I altered me coat pattern an' used leather with trim...

Why thank you!
I love makin' th' hats (ah, hells, I love makin' all of my works... but the hats are just so much fun!)... I got one more I want to list now... a int'restin' "flip front" style with a Jack Rackham theme t' it... But it just isn't finished til I find just th' right black feathers... a mix of ostrich 'n' pheasant I think... Just needs t' be BLACK... an' a'course I, be th' kind of annoyin' perfectionist that I am, has t' see and inspect th' feathers b'fore I buy 'em...
An' Bess... I'll get ye set up with the pouch just the way ye want it! (messages sent)
Sorry bout th' lack of green on the chapeau... That one just needed t' be all stark Black & Silver... I almost painted th' skull & crossed bones in th' cameo silver... but I decided t' weather 'n' shade th' white... It worked just how I wanted so I stopped there b'fore I went from strikin' an' (possibly) elegant t' completely overkill...
Thank ye again ladies!
