ART ON THE PORCHES STREET FAIRE

Arrrrrt on th' Porches be piratical in nature due t' th' fact that they hire us....we be pirates an' that's what they gets: 10 scurvy, debauched CHAOS PRODUCTIONS pirates plunderin' th' place wit' a 12' burlap pirate ship an' tons o' booty t' be taken from us in what ye might calls a...dishonest....nature.

:lol:

On th' whole it be an Art Festival.....but that did na stop us from tryin' t' turnin' th' place pirate!

It be kind o'...weird...actually, as we be these random pirates what shipwrecked when poor Scrimshaw MacGraw's wee dinghy were battered aboot on th' rocks thus maroonin' us at the Faire.

We've kidnapped th' Queen as well.

At first she were a Royal Pain (arr! arr! arr!) but as th' day wears on she becomes a bit more what ye might calls...acclimated....t' th' piratical lifestyle.

As fer us? Well, we spends th' day tryin' t' make sense o' th' landlubbers.....an' annoyin' every one by lookin' fer...."Art".......on th' neighborin' porches. Poor bugger, we ne'er did find him.........

:huh:

(Though there be plenty o' art....music...belly dancers....victuals an' th' like t' satisfy everyone o' every age!)

It be a family day....and we be there fer th' knipperkins (mostly). (There's those what loves t' dance wit' a pirate......)

;)

Gamblin' booty in th' streets......givin' pirate ship "rides"........(verra popular among wee ones an' those in their cups.....).......doin' Arrrrt in th' Arrrrt Tent.....an' we puts on a stage play as well. This year; THE PYRAT'S o' HAMELIN.

(Pied Piper o' Hamelin wit' Pirates. Aye well....SOMEONE had t' do it.....)

:lol:

So.....we managed t' turn an Art Festival into an Arrrrt Festival.

Either way it seems t' work as they keeps hirin' us back.

Our most favorite comment last year was by a Mom: "Great. Now starting tomorrow morning all I'm going to hear is "Only 364 more days until the pirates come back............."

(We knows th' feelin'!)

Aye well....sometimes ye have t' forfit thread count fer th' good o' th' masses........

:huh:
