Just found out that the Musical Blades, http://www.musicalblades.com/ will not be performing this year at the St. Louis Pirate Festival.

From their Yahoo Fan Group

Hi everyone!!

Been awhile since I've dropped a note, so I thought I'd do so.

The Fall CD release (High Sea's Drifter) is coming along nicely. We've been working on it non-stop since the Jeff City faire last weekend and will continue non-stop until the Joplin Faire (July 25, 26), at which time all recording should be done and we head in to the mixing/mastering process.

We have finished negotiations and will be performing all seven weekends at the Kansas City Renaissance Festival this year (weekends beginning Labor Day weekend). KC Ren Fest is our hometown faire, and we only did two weekends there last year so we could visit/perform the St Louis Pirate Fest. And though bitter sweet, as we will miss St Louis this fall, we are looking forward to doing a full run again at KCRF this year. More info (stage and show times) to come.

Though not set in stone, we're hoping for a first weekend at KCRF CD release.
Stay tuned....

- Capt Patch


Also noticed on the Festival web site ( http://stlpiratefest.com/ ) that all tickets will be $8.00 with kids under 5 free.

I'm a bit late chiming in, but I'll be there with my singles group on the 19th and hanging out at the dead parrot - as usual! lol

Post by: Cap'n Hunnar Graybeard on August 23, 2009, 06:11:41 PM
Well....Due to circumstances beyond our control, Charity and I will not be able to attend the Pirate Festival this year.

Gonna miss all of you.

It was great to meet you (again?  ;) ) Genievea!  Malcom, great pictures!  I love the one of sleeping Capt Logan!  Awww!  Tuckered out pirate!  ;D  I'm looking forward to day two!!!

Post by: Malcolm on September 14, 2009, 01:23:12 AM
Glad you all like my pictures. One of the better parts of faire is sharing. Another is meeting new and old friends.

Additionally, it looks like my son-in-law is going to be bringing his son to the Pirate Festival this year. Maybe the 19th or the 26th. Grandpa gets to play tourguide.

Ah! Malcolm you have caught me with my hat off. I didn't even know you were snapping pictures... very sneaky! Many great pictures and more to come I hope.

How wonderful it was to see familiar faces in a new space!

Queen's Gambit (http://www.queens-gambit.com) spent opening weekend of the Pirate Festival sharing the Knights Pub/Cartier Stage with 3 Pints Gone and Shillelagh Law, and we had a blast!  Next weekend promises to be even better, as 3 Pints Gone is holding their CD Release Party at Molly Malone's after closing cannon on Saturday night, and QG has been asked to come and offer entertainment during their breaks.

And third weekend, it is rumored that Tullamore will be coming over to the eastern side of the state as well.  So those of you who were jonesing for a Celtic Music fix need to come out to Wentzville, MO's Rotary Park during the rest of the weekends in September to see the best Celtic players in the Midwest!

Oh, and QG has two fiddlers now - I'm the one with the white hair.

Malcolm... We had a great time with you at your 1st PirateFest & we will be looking forward to meeting more of your family next weekend.
Amyj & Bob... Logan had fun playing around with you both at the pub.
Genievea Brookstone... It was a pleasure to finally get to meet you & your crew. Have fun at KCRF.
PyrateTradingCo... Clay... Captain Logan LUVS his hat & Please forward any of the pics that you may have got of the Pirate on the Run. LOL
Dott1... Captain Logan sends more Pirate ~~Hugs~~ & will be on the lookout for you next weekend.
DrmzofDrgnz... Logan proudly showed off the pirate treasure you gave him.
JCBanner... For some reason it is easier to spot you at Faire this year. LOL
Mythrin... It is always a learning experience, everytime we run into you.
LadyNiniane... It was wonderful getting to see you again & we always enjoy the music. If you happen to run into the Queen from WhiteHart, let her know that Captain Logan would like to meet with her.
RatCatcher... We always enjoy it when we get to see you & Speedy and get to spend time together.
Once Debauched... You better keep your word & show up next weekend. If not remember we know where your hat is & we may have to put a ransom on it. LOL
Limey_Tech... We saw you & tried to say ~Hello~, but alas you was on a mission & we got stopped, so we didn't get the chance. If you happen to see us, come on over.
Capn Hunnar & Charity... We miss you both & you are in our thoughts & prayers. See you next year!

I am at the German Encampment at 11:30 for the first of the swordfights.  Catch me afterwards, if only for a few minutes.  I am also at the cannons around 4:45 before the final fight and down at the ship after fight during the final sing.

I'm always snapping pictures. If you see the flash, it's too late.

I'll see what I can do about taking a picture of you with your hat on.

Thats very kind. Although... if you can't seem to catch me again that is fine too. Random pictures are fantastic.

Malcolm...  Thanks for the pics from Saturday, were sorry that we missed you & your family, Lord Alberon had to work all day  :(

We arrived at the Faire Sunday, and even though it was only misting, the ***FAIRE was CLOSED***   :'( because it had rained enough earlier that the parking field was ~TOO WET~!!

:-\ ~~~FAIRE WITHDRAWALS~~~  :-\  & a VERY BUMMED OUT *Captain Logan*

We plan on there being there both days this last weekend (keeping fingers crossed & hoping that the weather cooperates)

Hope to see everyone there --- if you spot us first... say ~~HELLO~~!!!!  ;D

Looks as if my last day at Pirate Fest will be the last day of Pirate Fest (Sunday).

New ribbon arrived this week, so I've been making new favours. Same Flash-in-a-Kilt design, but new color ribbon to better match my kilt. They're kind of special to me, but you'll have to ask what the story is.

Looking forward to seeing every one.
