Rogue Mermaid Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I am sending the link to my friends right now. I have been waiting for the date of this with much excitement!!!!!!!!! Is this a piratical attired affair?
Rogue Mermaid Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I was a little too excited....I didn't read all of dear Blenderwench's post. I see that you can dress the part. Excellent!!!!
Capt Thighbiter Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 Well now mate, know ye of an establishment that might be in the way of needing some ertertainment fer the event? Some tavern like as not or mayhap an eatery that would like some lively music from the foc'sle and a few from the Capt's cabin. The Brigands would love an excuse to make the journey from our port in NY on the Isle of Long. Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated! http://thebrigands.com The Brigands Hellion Latitude: 410500N Longitude: 0730000W Pirate music at it's best, from 1650 onwards The Brigands
greenighs Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 I'm planning on being there, stationwagon permitting. Where does one get a list of area oubs going along with the piratical theme?

If things go well we will be signing shanties and pub songs ourselves. But we would love have you join in the shinanagains anyway. This years invasion is really starting to shape up.... We have pirates coming in from PA. Ohio,and VA Beach. There looks to be about a dozen taverns on-board with us to plunder this year. Right know we are looking at about 150 pirates on the loose in Fells Point. I hope you and your Brigandscan make it down for a night of fun. You can check-out some pictures from last years invasion and get some more info at www.baltimorepyrateinvasion.com Talk to ya latter Crimson Corsair
crimson corsair Posted March 7, 2006 Author Posted March 7, 2006 I'm planning on being there, stationwagon permitting. Where does one get a list of area oubs going along with the piratical theme? We do hope your staionwagon can make to Baltimore. The bars and pubs are looking forword to use being there.... The reason we chose Fells Point is due to its rich privateering history. Fells Point was know as the Pirates Den to the British Navy around the time of the war of 1812. Many of the Clippers' that the British Navy hated where built right here in Fells Point. And this year the Baltimore Harbor will be celebrating its 300th anniversary...
kass Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Crimson Corsair, Must one register? Or can we just show up. Because, you see, my husband has a job interview the day before... If he gets it, we'll want to celebrate. But if he doesn't, he'll have to work that day. So can we just show up and meet you at One Eye'd Mike's? Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
greenighs Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 I didn't see a place to register, am I missing a link on the Invasion site? I'm warning ya right now, aside from my tricorn, I will NOT be in period attire. I'll be hand-stitching that when the patterns are available, and I'm in no hurry for all that sewing ... I will be meeting up with some reef club friends there, so the fish geeks can meet the Pyrates! Aarrr!
kass Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Greenighs, don't be afraid of me! I'm not the period police. It's a pub crawl with a pirate theme, for chrissakes, girl! I probably won't be in period attire either... I mean, how stupid would I look, walking down Fells Point in a 1690s Hunting Costume with a train (but no horse or gun)! Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
Rogue Mermaid Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Grenighs & Kass, are you guys planning on dressing non-period pirate or street clothes? I'm probley dressing pirate myself..but not everyone I'm going with is planning to.
kass Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 If I can make it, I'm definitely dressing pirate! Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
greenighs Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 Hmmm, probably piratesque street clothes (capris with stripy socks, buckle shoes ((yes, those 13 pairs of Doc Marten maryjanes do come in handy)), and some sort of pirate- or nautical-themed top .... ) and my greeeeeen tricorn from the MacKay! Gyaaarrrr! Oh, and I'm so excited, a bunch of my seahorse buddies and me are getting a tour of a seahorse aquaculture facility run by the syngnathid specialist from the National Aquarium! Which, for those of you who are not fish geeks, is a cool thing. I might even get the specialist guy to come to the pub crawl!
crimson corsair Posted March 9, 2006 Author Posted March 9, 2006 The website is www.baltimorepirateinvasion.com or www.baltimorepyrateinvasion.com There are pictures from last years invasion as well as details to this years invasion. As last year this does not cost anything to join in....I do hope to get the bars and pubs to drop there cover charges to us in the invasion like last year When i Said "register" all you do is sign a guess book and you get a Goody bag with stuff and a Baltimore Pirate Invasion Botton that lets the bars now you are on the ivasion and that gets you deals on the Clippy City beverage line of beers. There are only going to be 200 bags.... This is a Gard encouraged event.....(please no weapons) I will be posting more details as the date gets closer .... Last year was a blast.... A numder of Pyracy Pirates made it out....
greenighs Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I can't wait, it sounds like it will be a blast. Should we bring our own tankards, or do the pubs discourage that?
crimson corsair Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 You are more than welcome... be sure to bring a camera too. These bars get very smokey so you may want to bring some Visine aslo...
