Diego Santana de la Vega Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 All of the following years it will be a reuinion but the innaugural international event will be in Las Vegas (because the airfaire is cheapest to get there cause the casinos offset the discounts ta get yer money in town) it's like three miles from the airport to the park where the faire is located so cab faire is cheap too!the other reason is we can camp on site! We should have a guild yard set up there and it will be as alot of you have read promoting reading and passing out lists of easy to read titles of books available for young readers. The Las Vegas city Renaissance Faire is called The Age of Chivalry the city plans and owns it they open friday from 9:am -3:30 pm for children in school to come. then they close and reopen to all patrons at 4:pm Friday and Saturday nights they are open till ten pm with a more than decent representation of acts on stage. The dates are October 6th, 7th and 8th 2006. If we all start planning now and saving we can all go there and party together and start a reunion for yearly general mayhem.

Mad Matt Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 Will there be anything proffered (shirts, pins, etc.) one could wear proudly at all subsequent events. Can I be an OG Pyrate if'n I shew up? You will be flogged. And God willing, come morning, you will be flogged some more.

Can I be an OG Pyrate if'n I shew up? the garb be that of period no pockets, no zippers and certainly no velcro. the idea of a pin is alluring one for just the pikes of us... Those that actually make the run to do this accomplish this live this through by being this a pyrate too. Yes I'll start looking for what it might be a skull with the year under it mounted on a pin with a ribbon hanging under it maybe.... we shall see Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
Rumba Rue Posted December 21, 2005 Posted December 21, 2005 I've been keepin' Boats abreast (well my breast anyway) of what your ideas be Diego. So I'll be passin' your Las Vegas request on to him. I'm marking it on my calendar for next year as a must to be there!
Capt. Morgan Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Fantastic! Sounds like it should be a blast... it be a ways off, but I think I should be able to make it!

Barbados Sam Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Experience an' I plan ta' be there as well :) ONLY 289 MORE DAYS "There be the chest, inside be the gold, we took them all. Spent them and traded them. We frittered them away on drink and food and pleasurable company. The more we gave them away, the more we came to realize... the drink would not satisfy, food turned to ash in our mouths, and all the pleasurable company in the world could not slake our lust. We are cursed men....Compelled by greed we were, and now we are consumed by it."
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted December 22, 2005 Author Posted December 22, 2005 tell all yer friends here on the pub immagine a hundred of us there chit chatting about Christines controversial pictures et all and all of us in one place, a gathering! A highlands gathering. I highly recommend bringing musical instruments for sing alongs all day and into the night! Bar b que all day! damn! am I dreaming or is there about enough time to save ten dollars a week till then and have it made in the shade....... Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
lorien_stormfeather Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I'm plannin' on being there with the Empire of Chivalry and Steel- as part of the Portlandia Pyrate Contingent! Lookin' forward to meetin' up with some ye!
Patrick Hand Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 We should have a guild yard set up there Diego, that would be cool if there was a Pyracy Pub..... or at least alla us from the Pub camping together........ (it might be almost like Bedlam at Kerney Park.....)
Captain Jim Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Be thar a place for cannon fire demonstrations? I may not have the rig built by then, but mayhap I will...in either case, sounds like fun, although a bit far from the sea fer my tastes. An' tha' begs a new question...would the reunion change venue year to year, basing itself in various established pyrate festivities? Sould we, in true pyratical tradition, vote on that provision? Or would that tend to be divisive, setting the east coast vs the west? Just rambling here, but these questions will come up in any "family" reunion talks...best to handle them up front. My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
Bunnycutlass Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 I don't mind the travelin all over the country for reunions, but maybe if we ran a poll and went with Majority rules like ye suggested. I of course will go anywhere there will be pyrates! To answer ye question, there is cannon fire they fire across from both sides of the lake. I can hook ye up with the group that arranges the cannons if ye are nice to me! Always a pleasure! If ye wouldn't mind sending me something personal like, nay sure if the group wants ther information posted. Bunny Cutlass
Patrick Hand Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 I thought the idea of Lost Wages, was that flights there were affordable..... dang... my biggest problem is ...Ojai in September....then Vegas in October.....
Scarlet McBayne Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 the reason for Las Vegas IS because of the cheap airfare and hotel rooms. I'm all for planning other events at other locations, but for a reunion for the pub we need to make it most acessible for the most amount of people. Just me humble opinion....

Patrick Hand Posted December 23, 2005 Posted December 23, 2005 Still thinkin' bout a Pyrate camp..... Diego, do you have a line to the orginizers ter set such a thing up ?
FairieTink Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 I think I can drag at least a few of m'crew out there for this. It's a drive for me, or a very cheap short flight. Keep me in the loop and we'll work something out.
William Brand Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 It is most likely that I will be attending with a number of friends in tow.
Tudor MercWench Smith Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 I am considering maybe hauling out to this. Sounds like fun. I need to travel more anyway . . . I dunno yet though . . .. I'll think about it. I just wish it was a bit closer . . .
Rumba Rue Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Diego, we're going to need a bigger encampment...
Patrick Hand Posted December 27, 2005 Posted December 27, 2005 Diego, we're going to need a bigger encampment.. A really BIG encampment..........

Patrick Hand Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 Diego.... re-post this inna nother name or whatever.... so everyone knows it be happin'.... also give us information so we can play.... I did not go the "Hampton Blackbeards Festivale " because no one could send me info about it....... Los Vegas is in the middle of the desert.... no ships of such.... BUT CHEAP AIRFAIRE..... wot other Pyrate gathering can offer that..... This may be doable... a Pyrate Faire for all Pyrates... (yah right.... it's very far west.... but cheap airfires...can you think of a place that can offer better.....) Outta fairness.... can anyone think of a beter place... (OK a better place that offers such cheap airfair to get to....) I got a flight to Miami for PiP.. then took a Grewyhound down there..... flight (got it really vcheap because I got it early due to a huricanes hitting the place $400..... bus..(going cheap) $65) heck.. look it up.... we can all get to Lost Wages pretty dang cheaply.... OK... There are some "bits" that have to be figured out first..... but it is doable............
callenish gunner Posted December 28, 2005 Posted December 28, 2005 patrick i'll send you some stuff on hampton as soon as they post the new updates ... would love t' see ye there ...perhaps for pip we could try to shedual a day and all meet in miami and rent a van to drive down t' key west and split the cost for the time ..... what do ye think lad
Diego Santana de la Vega Posted December 29, 2005 Author Posted December 29, 2005 I not be ignorin the likes o all ye (me mates) I sees, I reads, I listens, I does. I am in the contact mode presently to get the info on an encampmnent there> I could have posted this last week but the lady I know and have worked for is on vacation till next week and her supervisor addressed my e-mail to her saying it sounded well and good but the fact is she would make the call upon her return. We await! I can't immagine any cost. But we shall see???? So getting back to the guild Captain Redwake has made the suggestion to minimize the list in the other thread so I dumped a few I hope I didn't step on any toes in so doin.... Ifin I did Just tell me to chum and jump. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a knife in your back.
William Brand Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 I may drive down to this one and bring all sorts of decorations. Barrels, Lamps, torches, boxes, nets, flags, etc. I assume we can have fire pits?
Ransom Posted December 29, 2005 Posted December 29, 2005 This may be doable for me and me mate. It would be great to meet all the pub scallywags, and party together. Not to mention the fact that I live in a pirate "dead zone" so don't get to wear me gear so much. Haven't been to Lost Wages in 15 yrs. And I gots ta tell ya, right now, bein' in the desert sounds pretty good, as Oregon is under water, and where I live, we have flood warnings cause the rivers are on the rise! ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold...
