Maggie Pricklebottom Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 I be attending on the 23rd, with another pub pyrate...got a charge out of the fact that "no weapons" is clearly stated, but the prizes for costumes be weapons.
Cheeky Actress Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Anyone else looking to visit the faire for opening weekend?Opening is July 1-2 weekend. Ahoy William! The Sterling Ren Faire and Summer Market Place holds a place very near and dear to me heart. I performed there back in the mid-80s and early 90s (support troupe) and even was a co-owner of a clothier shoppe (up upon the hill next to the flyer dragon and the ax and knife throw - if there are still there). The Faire still brings back wonderful memories and I do miss those in the "Bless the Mark' crew. I wonder if Gary and Sue Izzo still direct/produce there? Well, enough of my rantings...I am sure that the Pyrate Weekend will be wonderful...sadly...now I live near Bristol Ren Faire...alass...not the same. Member of "The Forsaken"
Maggie Pricklebottom Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Aye, Gary Izzo still be in charge. My daughter is attending a summer theatre program at Oswego and he will be holding a workshop for them on improv...she is jazzed about that (me too, for her).
Mimi Foxmorton Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Aye then.......Sterling Renn and, BTM Players under Master Gary Izzo be a most grand and, wondrous Faire! 23 plus years of memories I have......... Mister Blydes....I would have welcomed the opportunity to meet ye on Pirate's Weekend........but, mayahp we shall accidentally meet opening weekend. The Black Dog Pub be a fairly new (actual) Pub recently built......so, I look forward to meeting some of me fellow Pub Pirates there! Now.....how shall we recognize each other.........? We needs must have The Secret Sign.......... Till that day..... ~Foxmorton ps. Do any attend the Alex Bay Pirate's weekend?
Cheeky Actress Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Now.....how shall we recognize each other.........?We needs must have The Secret Sign.......... Perhaps the "Thumbing of One's Nose?" Twenty three years!...You must have been about whilest I was there myself...I do remember a few faces in my day...names perhaps you know too? Eric Heath (Ax Thrower & Booth Owner), Patrick Johnson (Crusty Karbunkel, Cheese of Albany), and my fav...Peter Soiree... Member of "The Forsaken"
Captain Tito Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 ps. Do any attend the Alex Bay Pirate's weekend? Aye it be me 3rd year goin, this comin Sat. August 12th. I always take me lad to the kids crafts, parade, and opening invasion. See ye there anyone?? <span style='font-size:21pt;line-height:100%'>Have Parrot Bay, will travel. WILL SHARE TOO!!!</span>
Mimi Foxmorton Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 Oh Lil....I wish I could sit and, have an ale with ye....and, look over me old photo album! Aye....Patrick......and, others....... Wes Holden (Willy Whitnot) Larry ...can't remember...(Nathan of Heath) Jonathan Crocker........ Roy Cox (jouster) who I would love to stumble across once again to chat about old times..... Oh...and, Dale Lakes......Leslie Noble...Pat Buckley....and, my most favorite of all......Ellen Dygert (Winifred Wheeler) !! Oh..oh...and, the most handsome of all Sheriff's ever....Brian Belge!! Mary and Marty STILL have the Star Throw booth! Know you Winifred has a 'head stone' in the 'cemetery' there...... I admit to a prick of a tear when I first saw it........ The Wheeler Inn is long gone.......sadly......and, Faire be different these days.......long gone are the bawdy wench auctions and, free kiss tickets of yore......(sigh)..... But, over all....as Gary is still there... the acting, history, character development and, shows remain superb! He really is a master! I guess it's just that you can't get away with as much as in the old days...... Or, maybe I'm older than I was in the old days......... Well then...I suppose this should have been a PM as we've bandied about all these names.......but, mayhap one will catch the alert on the winds and, pop in! Aye then........thanks for the memories....... Fair winds to ye.....and, if ye e'er return with a new tide.....ye have a place to stay at Foxmorton's cottage! ~F.
MadJohnFlint Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 I shall be attending! I am but a child but no matter to me! I have been going now for 7-8 years! A new adventure every day if O may say so myself. I shall have a brown tri-corn, a brown leather patch with a Richard Worley on it. So keep an Eye or two out for me (depending if thar be an eyepatch on yer head or not!)
Cheeky Actress Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Oh...and, Dale Lakes......Leslie Noble...Pat Buckley....and, my most favorite of all......Ellen Dygert (Winifred Wheeler) !! Oh..oh...and, the most handsome of all Sheriff's ever....Brian Belge!!I admit to a prick of a tear when I first saw it........ Damn it all Mimi! All of them...I've played with 'em all! God Bless them. Dale was kind on the eyes...he made me very nervous with that letcherous smile of his. I saw him out in OH one year doing a Ren Faire there...he was shocked to see me and me twin. Damn (again). I wish I knew how to down load photos onto this contraption. I've had no luck with my avatar either. Anyone out there who can help a computer challenged chick such as meself? Yes, I hear that Doug and Mike (Don Juan and Migaule sp?) have purchased some property up there and making something of a retirement egg for themselves. I hear they have just finished their maze. I do know that they've done this at other Faires too! By the way, Mimi...do you remember a clothing booth called "The Celtic Woman?" It was across the way from Mary and Marty - star throw. Oh..and sadly...we lost Bosh (our good Queen Bess about three or four years ago- She took Marilyn's position when her and her hubby decided to 'work for the Rat' down in FL. Member of "The Forsaken"
Mimi Foxmorton Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Well...bugger that! Aye Lil....a grande time we two 'old ladies' could be havin' with a sit down and, an ale! Aye...Dale then.....verra....kind on the eyes.......an' else where as well.......... Aye...I were here for the passing o' Baj......a sad thing indeed........ I have a picture her last Faire with me 90 year old Mum......... Mum kept telling her that she was French! Bugger this computer. I haven't the luck with it nor, the patience. But, iffen ye clicks onto www.artontheporches.com ye can see a photo of me an' me scurvy pirate class. (click on entertainment) I'm the mob capped wench in the lower stage right corner of the top photo or the front row middle pirate (brown hat) in the lower in CHAOS PRODUCTIONS in entertainment. Celtic Woman rings a bell......I'm sure we'd recognize each others faces..... :) And, I'm still smelling of Hill Woman....(aren't we all????) Great huge cuddly bear Michael and, Marilyn....how ARE they??? Jim Green (with Scarlet Rat productions)......still here! Doing Dicken's Festival off season Ah......a small small world is a pirate's.............
