That is very, very sad news indeed. MNRF will never be the same without him.

My prayers go out to his family.

Very sad indeed. They were always a huge crowd pleaser. I remember seeing them my first year performing at KCRF 15 years ago. They haven't performed at KC for many years but every year someone always asks, "where are puke & snot?"

Thanks for the heads up. I am sharing with friends from the Bristol Faire. Very sad.

I will miss him also, but the show is going on at the MNRF. Puke isnt sure how he will do it, but he said he knows his partner would do the same.

A ship stage was built for them in the past few years, so adding them to the pyracy threads was very accurate!!

thanks for the heads up on the tragedy.

He will be missed. Those two were part of the reason that I started going to Renfaires.

May fair winds take him to rest.

Wow, that is so sad! Saw him at a fair this past July. RIP, good sir.
