Black Hearted Pearl Posted September 6, 2007 Author Share Posted September 6, 2007 Studio City Tattoos - California Swashbucklers converge on Studio City to Celebrate Talk Like a Pirate Day Buccaneers, pirates and swashbucklers from all over Southern California, San Francisco and even Oregon will gather in Studio City Wednesday, Sept. 19, to celebrate International Talk Like a Pirate Day. They'll convene from noon to midnight at Studio City Tattoo “Ye Olde Tattoo Shoppe," 11032 Ventura Blvd. The event is free and open to the public. Talk Like a Pirate Day is celebrated by millions of people throughout the United States and around the world on all seven continents – even at the South Pole! It's a day when – just like the name says – people are encouraged to swash their buckles and talk like a pirate. This is the third year Ye Olde Tattoo Shoppe has hosted a Talk Like a Pirate Day celebration, and each year the event gets bigger. This year's event includes live music by Captain Kula’s Pirate Band, pirate sword fights, fire breathing, and an appearance by the founders of the holiday themselves – John "Chumbucket" Baur and Mark "Cap’n Slappy" Summers, from Albany,OR. Baur and Summers are two friends who started Talk Like as Pirate Day as a joke, then, as they say, "took the idea way too far." Since their idea first came to the world's attention in 2002 they've had a book published, have performed in Las Vegas, San Francisco, Seattle and New Orleans, their Web site – www.talklikeapirate.com – has taken tens of millions of hits, and they've appeared (with Baur's wife, Mad Sally) on ABC's "Wife Swap." They will be signing copies of their book, "Pirattitude!" during the event. Throughout the day, the Studio City tattoo parlor will provide small pirate tattoos, which normally cost $80, for $40. The schedule of activities includes: "Ho"stess with the mostess The Scarlett Harlott!!from PIRATESFORHIRE.COM Noon – Pirates performing a full-fledged sword fight 5 to 9 p.m. – Captain Kula’s Pirate Band of Disney fame will perform. 9:30 – Ted Shred from piratesforhire.com AND THE CREW!!Will be breathing fire 9:30 ish pm Vendors,food,music,pirates and tattoos For more information on the international holiday ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind.

Capt Grey Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I'll have to pass along the LA events on my Star Wars boards. A friend has demanded that attend Dragon*Con next year; I figure I have a year to save for it. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.

hurricane Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 The Pyrates of the Coast will be at Thirsty Bones fashion on Merritt Island on Talk Like a Pirate Day. They'll be a pirate costume contest, drink specials for folks in pirate attire, karaoke and lots of other fun events to celebrate the day. I will be the event's host, helping out the gang with the events. Everything kicks off a 6 p.m. with a little flintlock fire outside the bar.
