Drop your Panties and Grab your Shanties! Bardic pursuits.

[Sean *pause* Porter]

So, here I was saying to myself, "Self, you need to get out there and get known."
To which was replied, "Me, you're right, but how could I do such a thing?"
"Leave me out of this!" said I.
"And who said you could speak for me?" said a disgruntled me.

And I don't know took third base.

Moving on, I'm a Bard. I'm a Pirate. I'm a Pirate Bard.
I also happen to be a Baronial Bard... and I want to ensure that no one ever forgets that the Baron of Twin Moons hired a Pirate to be his Bard...

SO, I'm looking for ideas, idealists, conspirators, collaboraters, and cunning linguists to spread the sea-legged and salty version of songs sung by someone with voracious verbosity... And to show this Society that Pirates are for more than chanting 'Yarr' and seeking Rum which seems to have mysteriously vanished.

Ideas?
Takers?

Ah-Yuh...I'se one o' them "Dime-a-dozen" hand drummers, 'cept I'se ALSO one o' them damn fools that Started the craze!!- Now, Cap'n Moreg, he plays just about anything, on any instrument, an Cap'n Gato is a'larnin the squeeze box, an the grizzled ol' pirate from down an out Tucson way is a Guitarist- Plays one o' them fancy things what looks like two git-boxed stuck together!

[Sean *pause* Porter]

Good to know.
Thank ye kind.

'Ol Grizz signin' on. I's been tryin' ta get sumthing goin' in Tuxon fer the last year but no luck. Came REAL close to tossin' in me hat fer the Renn Faire auditions. Common sense an the wife blowed up the car put a stop ta that sillyness. Ideers? Ideers be easy. I gots ideers hatchin' out everywhere. Implimentation an findin' bodies ta press be a major holdup. I does have a semicaptive audience at a local open mic. They ain't throwed me out yet :)
The pub HMS Rottenbottom is close to settin sail in the ships category as a gatherin' place fer music makers. I needs a little (lot) more 'puter power before she'll take water.

[Sean *pause* Porter]

Hmm... Tucson's a bit too many farthings 'gainst the wind for my longboat, though perhaps come Estrella, should you be inclined to sail up, we can meet up and share a word, an idea, and a pint or two. My ship will be berthing there for the martial festivities and my shore leave starts 'bout mid week.

'Fore then I'm afraid most o' me travellin' going to be done to train with the various nautical and 'lubber crews for the upcoming war.

[Captain Brianna the Oblivious]

I've recently moved to Twin Moons, myself, which could explain the missing rum.

I sing, and I dance, and sometimes both! I've only been to BTM fighter practice a couple of times, the last time to pick up a knitting machine.

If I ever get off of second shift I'm hoping to attend more often, and also make it to Marceau's drum-and-dance practice once & a while. I'll definitely be at Estrella and might even remember, at some point, to email the land-allocation gentles....

[Sean *pause* Porter]

You may have already met my Captain then at Drum & Dance.
We'll have to touch bases at some point in the future and see what we can come up with.

[captain Moreg]

My background is in magic, fire eating/performing,acting ,music,sfx make up. For the most part.
What did ya have in mind?

[Morgan Dreadlocke]

'E's seekin' cunning linguists ta spread the word. Smells fishy ta me;)

[Sean *pause* Porter]

Something to show that we sea dogs are good for more than just drinking and being lewd.
Not to say as I'd like us to get all respectable... but a measure of accord in the eyes of the populace might do us a bit of good... open up certain ports that otherwise might be barred from us.

It's much easiser to sack a city when you're invited through the gates...

There are many pirate themed shows and groups in ren faire circles, I was thinking that it's a shame not to have them in SCA drum circles.

[captain Moreg]

A___men we be thinkin alike.

[Captain Gato Bajau]

Come to the pirate gathering this week-end ( Jan 20th) at Southern Port to spread your message.
