Rumba Rue Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 It's offical, PRP will be at the faire with full encampment. Hope to see some of you maybe on Friday of set-up and on Saturday.

Killian Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 Ayr, it appears that thee crew of the Stranglehold will be in attendance at this 'ere port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumba Rue Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 If this pirate faire in Corona turns out really well, it will most certianly signal death to the one in Ojai-especially since Dick Wixon (who runs the Ojai events) has been losing money on the Sept. faires for a long time now. I think he's just about ready to close it down, as the only people showing up are the participants. Dick is making all his money now on the Escondido faires since he's gone to two weekends for spring and fall. And if'n PRP just happens to be next to Stranglehold, heheeee, ol Rumba will most certianly be up to her fine tricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Petee Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Oh man I can't wait, I'm going the whole weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Is Corona Faire in the same location as it always is or is it in a new location? Hmmm.....That also be me sister Sabrina's birthday as well, the 27th of August. Perhaps go to Faire on Saturday and do our regular Disneyland trip Sunday. Since having the passport again we're all going to try and get as much use out of it as possible. Get our money's worth, as it were! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have 4 shows on Saturday and 3 shows on Sunday. The times and which stage will be posted when I get them. This will be our first paid gig so come out and cheer us on!
