2008 Weapons Policy?

[maelstrom0370]

Seriously, I'm more worried about the weapons we can't see at faire.

If you can't see them, what makes you think they haven't always been there?

Pink?  Did I miss something?

Maria and the dear Mistress Katie have an on going love/hate relationship with pink.

Katie loves it.  Maria hates it.   

OK - to be fair, it's only certain shades of pink Maria dislikes....

I think this thread has lost it's way. I thought it was about the Weapons Policy of the faire. Shouldn't another topic be started like maybe being named Mayhem? In fact I'll begin one for all the crazy posts that don't fit anywhere specifically that people want to make.

This thread's so off track the train jumped the Grand Canyon.

Sure, find me at the faire and this will end with me buying you a pint.

Cool its settled we share a pint at the bar. Who says alcohol can't solve any problems.

[nliedel]

Not the Scottish, or the Irish, or the Swedes, or the Italians...

Just keep the rum away from me and I'll be fine.

Wow, go on vacation for a couple of weeks, and look what happens!!  My eyes are hurting from reading through all the pages of the posts.  Now I'm going to get in trouble for being on here all day reading and trying to get up to speed on what I missed instead of doing the laundry.

And a familier face comes into the light of the fire from the forest.  A treat, to be sure!!

Wecome again, L. Dale Walter!!

Oh, I have been around, I just figured I would let others hash out this oft beat subject.

However, August 3rd is my last day as performer at Ren Fests, then I am dropping off the grid.  I did so in 1988, and I in think 2008 the time is right for a repeat.

I think I will be in New Zealand snowboarding...

Then it is my loss that I will not be there to see one of you last performances.  We are not attending Michigan until August 17th.  Pray, might you stay until then?  After many a tilt, at least in the old forums, it would be nice to finally meet face to face, so I can look you squarely in the eye...

as we raise a mug of ale.  First one's my treat.

MIRF does not start till the 16th of August.

Just for you Robert, I will be there the 17th. ;-)

Be careful about looking me in the eye.  There are many at the Michigan Reniassance Festival that will tell you I am the Devil himself.  You wouldn't want to lose your soul now would you? <g>

OR we could just raise a tankard.  OR you can raise a tankard, I'll take a plastic cup.  I hate carrying crap around with me...<g>

O.K.  So now that the faire has been open for a little while, how have things been with the new policy in place? Has it taken forever to get in with the weapons check and zip tie thing. Have there been any incidents? Are there any additional weapons vendors? We will be up over the labor day weekend and I wanted to know if was worth bringing our things, or if it was to much of a hassle to bother with. Not trying to stir things up, just would like to know. Thanks-

Everything is running fine. Quick through the weapons check and as far as I know no incidents. Bring em if you got em.

I was just there on Sunday the 24th.  First time this year.  Brought my bow, arrows, Viking dagger and seax knife.  The weapons check line wasn't too bad.  Probably worse right at opening, but well worth the wait.  It was great seeing so many decked out with swords, and such.  Bring them!  You won't be disappointed.  (Can't say I saw any additional weapon's vendors.  Maybe next year.  Really would like to see some archery, custom bows and arrows, myself.)
