Trapper Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 Saturday, October 11th, from 9-12, at the Highliner Pub and Grill (Fisherman's Terminal), we'll be having a benefit for the Wawona. She was built in 1897, the first ship to ever be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Despite that, she still faces eviction from her berth if we can't raise the money to do some serious restoration. There's no cover charge, but we'll be passin' the pitcher all night and havin' an auction t' boot. Tom Lewis, famed British shantyman, has kindly donated a complete set of his CDs, including the as-yet unreleased one, tto be auctioned off. The Pirates of the Coast, famed, talented plunderers of the Seven Seas, will be auctioned as well. Music includes: Broadside (all women shanty group), Coventry (Celtic folk/rock), the Halibutts (Ivar Haglund tribute band), Steve Lalor (of the Daily Flash), the world famous Sanger and Didele (famous for their rendition of Puff the Calamari), and if we can twist their arms, Pirates of the Coast. Come lend support to keep a grand old lady from bein' kicked out of her home. Captain of the Tinker's Damn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trapper Posted September 29, 2003 Author Share Posted September 29, 2003 Hey, Animal! Hurricane be tellin' me that ye'll all be tryin' t' get there. That'd be ideal, since I be figurin' if ye plays, ye can probably get a regular gig out of it. Savvy? Sure'n the crowd would love t' be terrorized by the likes o' ye. Scupper, no hard feelin's, eh? It's not easy t' tell that I'm a female with a name like Trapper. Check out coventry-music.com and ye'll see that Animal and me be tellin' the truth. Hmm. A silent auction...must give some thought t' that. Fair winds and a full tankard, Trapper Captain of the Tinker's Damn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it when I was still livin' in Michigan. 'Aven't done it in a few years now. Funny enough, I miss it. Difficult work sometimes, but I enjoyed it. Jus' wish it paid better. There will jus' be someone takin' over for me in the Seattle office o' me company, which means I won' be makin' trips up there anymore. "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

Lucky Penny Hawkings Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Well, for the weekend I was in Seattle..or more precisely, Bothell...so I was close at a time when I would not be otherwise. :) "Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

El Pirata Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Bothell, it looks so wierd spelling it now. I was born in Seattle, lived til 10 in Lynnwood and lived til 19 in Bellevue. I had a few friends that lived in Bothell. It's a small world. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.

Coastie04 Posted October 14, 2003 Share Posted October 14, 2003 I also be from Bellevue. I always spelled Bothell piratically, with an 'R'. Brothell just sounds much more piratical anyway. I'd have been there, were it not for the 3000+ mile distance. How'd it go?

Trapper Posted October 14, 2003 Author Share Posted October 14, 2003 Well, it went remarkably well for the first one. Just on Ginger from the Pirates of the Coast passin' the pitcher (and of course, her obvious charms), we made $481.00. We be savin' the auction items (a complete set of Tom Lewis CDs, including the unreleased one, and a limited edition nautical print) fer Tom Lewis' CD release party, November 1st, also at the Highliner. All be welcome t' that as well. Fair winds, fair lads and a full bumper o' rum Trapper Captain of the Tinker's Damn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know just where you're talking about There's a DMV in the Lake Hills area, I think, or there was.
