That's right, friends, SIX. That is the number of crew that comprises Triton's Fury. I'm overjoyed that my Quartermistress, Lilly Lightfinger, has decided to remain with the crew despite her health. Not that I would ever put any of my crew's well-being before any materialistic gain, but her vacancy left a hole in the fabric of the group. Welcome back, Lilly, it's gonna be a wild ride.
The addition of our ship's bosun, Jasper the Red, is coming along splendidly. He stepped up when we were in need and filled the afore mentioned vacancy comfortably. As I promise at the beginning of every season, new shows and a little something special for our audience. We can't remain stagnant, doing the same show or two season after season. We just don't roll that way.
As I said, our number is now six, and as I've already mentioned two of the crew it would be remiss if I don't introduce the rest. First mate and master gunner, Gunny Flintlock has worked up a couple tunes that he will perform solo with the crew backing him. He's also added a twist or two to our existing repetoire, just to spice things up.
Gunny's wife, ship's watch and our own little spitfire, Ratty Flintlock has moved to take the lead on several selections and has a whole host of new critters to bring to the show. I've lost count of how many "pets" she has stowed away onboard. I do know that the fine folks at the Binder Park Zoo had given her a cart to wheel her beasties about,(a special thanx to them, they treated us like royalty when we performed at the Zoo Boo).
Which brings me to my darling daughter, ship's gaelor and helmsperson Tara the Torturer. Is it no surprise that she is on cloud nine, now that Jasper is part of the crew. You see, he is her boyfriend, fiance, paramoure, boy-toy, whatever. As if it was bad enough that I had to keep an eye on her when we are ashore, now I have to be on watch all the time.
Finally, there's me. Your humble narrator, Capn Rocky. 'Nuff said.
So now that I've summed up the crew for you, when will you get a chance to see us? Well, our season starts up in two short weeks. Mayfaire, held in Marshall, MI takes place May 17th and 18th, then again on May 24th, 25th, and 26th. Like us, the folks at this faire have been busy improving the grounds. I walked through the site yesterday and they put me to work building our new stage. Happy work, indeed.


Ahoy Captn!

I would 'shore' love to see your crew make a stop at MiRF-- have you sent any bottles of that special grog over to the ED in Holly yet? Word has it, she can be bribed --but you didn't hear it from me. sssshhhh!
