I know that most Faires look the same, but that almost looks like the MD one... But the MD just opened like.. a weekend ago I hope to actually get to it this year. And when I do, I'll post pictures of it. Until then... ... here's a really bad shot of me from Otakon. Bad lighting + a long day + bad lip color = what I REALLY look like XD

It was the Pennsylvania Ren Faire. Ahh! When does the PA one typically run? I know the NJ one runs Memorial Day Weekend->the end of June (I used to work it), and the MD one is typically end of August->Octoberish. And this isn't the same event as Pennsic, right?

as far as I know Pennsic is its own event. Its the huge war isn't it? that gets thousands of ppl? From what I remember of my SCA time, ren faires and sca events were 2 different things. Can you imagine some of the period police at a ren faire? they'd have a heart attack

I always wanted to try SCA. My cousin has done it, he told me about it on several occasion. I here there's this group of pissed/stressed lawyers, doctors and other high stress jobs that annihilate.

And this isn't the same event as Pennsic, right? Bri, Pennsic is an SCA event, held about a month ago, in the Pittsburgh area. PA Ren Faire is August - October, held in Lancaster, PA. When the Mrs. (Seargadh) and I got married, we went to PARF the following day with most of the wedding party, all in our garb from the ceremony ;D Kirf, Did you get a chance to catch the Tartan Terrors show?

* sighs* I haven't been to the Pa renfaire since I got to go in 10th grade with my drama class (read 13 years ago...double sigh). My drama teacher had this AMAZING collection of period costumes, and we all looked like we were part of the faire......i misses it

Thanks, Hok! I thought that was how it went down! And doing that for your wedding must have been so incredibly awesome I actually kinda hope my wedding is similar.. should I ever actually be lucky enough to marry My experience with the SCA was very tiny when I was looking to get involved/go to Pennsic. ... my quest for details landed me with a VERY frightening stalker, who tried to insist I was His Lady and that I had an Obligation To The Gods to repopulate his Pennsic house. ... I know some awesome SCA people, but... that scared me away from the whole thing XD I worked at the New Jersey Renn Fest (at the time it was in Somerset County, near Bridgewater) briefly, and loved my time there, until the Festival was turned over to another coordinator, who .. well.. managed to tick off enough authorities that they tore down our grounds and forced the Faire to move 7 years of work to customize the place... (4 stages, a chessboard, an enchanted forest, a shaded games area, 3 taverns, a keep and the jousting area). I really miss it, now more than ever. Must get to the MDRF...

Ok, this is the closest thing I have to a Renfair pic...I was a gypsie. Nothing fancy. I made most of my outfits, and this was my first one. We really don't have a huge renfair here in my hometown, but we do have the Pirate festival on the coast every year, and that's a total blast! I'm sure I have some L.A.R.P. pics somewhere of when I was in Vampire the Masquerade, I was the Premogen for the Toreador Clan. Very interesting times back then! ;D
