Captain Mickey Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Three Cheers to our very own Mae and Brig for winning 1st place in the Duets category at the Bay Area Ren Festival Bellydacncing Competition yesterday. Not only did the win in style, the did it AIRSHIP Pirate Style! It was a grand thing to see, and I only wish I had a video camera to capture it. I got some shots of the winning team after though...

Cheeky Actress Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Wow! Congrats to you both! Member of "The Forsaken"
William Brand Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 Excellent. Which style did you perform? Tribal?
Mae Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Thank you! The dance was sort of a tribal/classical fusion, with a little bit of a vaudeville feel to it. Brig is editing the video now, should have a link to post soon. The world stands out on either side No wider than the heart is wide. ~E. Millay
Mae Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 But damnation when are ye going to dance fer us?! Anytime you command, dear Captain. Just so long as it's sometime when I can stay awake for more than a few hours at a time and Brig has baby-free arms. Neither of those happens too terribly often. The world stands out on either side No wider than the heart is wide. ~E. Millay
William Brand Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Well, we'll have to get you together with some other award winning dancers that I could name at PIP this year.

Brig Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Thank you! The dance was sort of a tribal/classical fusion, with a little bit of a vaudeville feel to it. Brig is editing the video now, should have a link to post soon. I think "editing" is far too kind a word for what I did to the poor tape, but you can view it Hopefully there will be a better version eventually, one with all the upgrades and without the funky sound loop at the end and with us getting all the steps right, buuuut any and all of that is a long shot. :angry: Oh, how beautiful it used to be Just you and me, far beyond the sea -Nightwish Alice Mason, Crewe of the Archangel
Black Syren Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Again totally awesome! Way to go Ladies! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
Captain Mickey Posted March 9, 2009 Author Posted March 9, 2009 Well, by the time you guys return to BARF, you may have reached the level of "LEGEND!" And it was most kind of you to give me a credit. You actually choked me up a bit this morning. I am SO glad to have been there! Hope to see you all soon again! Mickey Flint First Mate o' the Harbinger Me Website...
