The big ship docked in Brazoria on Friday the 13th, surely a good day for pirating! A festival it was, with food and drink… aye, and lads and wenches aplenty. Plenty of plunder on the auction block too, and everyone from judges to the constabulary having a time of it. What was it called, ye ask? Well, it doesn’t really have a name… actually, the fact it has no name is its name… or it’s named after not having a name to name itself.
No one move… I dropped my brain…
Of course! It’s the Brazoria No Name Festival. It’s been held for years, and they haven’t found a need to name it yet! The boys were there to keep the fine folk of Brazoria entertained into the wee hours, and had a great time of it, too! While watching them do their swashbuckling, I even recorded a bit of it on my own and posted it for the pirating world to see. The boys have set sail, but will be in three ports in three nights come Independence Day weekend, so be sure to meet them when next ship meets sand!

- Chronicles from a Pirate's Wench
- Yo Ho, me Hearties... This is a tale of the adventures of a group of modern day Intercoastal Pirates. Not the marauding or pillaging kind, mind you, but a band of musical skaliwags that go from town to town along the Gulf Coast looking for fun and adventure. I came to be in the company of this motley crew when I was bewitched by the First Mate's serenading some years ago. He began to keep company with these Intercoastal Pirates some time after that, and before I knew it, he was a full-fledged Pirate himself. Not that I mind it... a little swashbuckling never hurt anyone! It will be my duty to chronicle their adventures, journeys to distant waters, and all the fun along the way.

Pirates Day Declared at Dido's
It has been a while since my last tale of the adventures of the Pirates, as I had gone inland to visit family. I am back now and wanted to catch everyone up on the Pirates recent activities.
On May 24th the Pirates made port on the San Bernard river to visit the Legendary Dido's. Unbeknownst to the Pirate's Captain and crew, Dido's had declared May 24th "Pirates day" in honor of their visit. All the bar maids and bar lads were dressed as Pirates. Even Captain Chris Faulk of the Pirates was accompanied on his guitar by his faithful side kick Maurice the Parrot. It was a rowdy crowd and crew, and food and drink was plentiful. Arrrgh!
Next Port of Call --- Brazoria No Name Festival June 13.
