Ahoy mates!

Are you planning to come to our show at the Skokie Theatre Nov. 15? We are working hard on bringing you some unique goodies in this show, including several new songs.  We hope to see lots of you there!

How would you like to stand at the microphone and introduce Bounding Main, welcoming us onto the stage for the Skokie show? Here's your new contest:
 
1. Write an introduction - it can be as long or as short as you like, but remember that humor goes far with us.  This is your chance to bring out that long-held secret that only you know about us.  Or pull out your best Ed McMahon impression.  Or, you know, just say a few kind words about your pals in Bounding Main.
 
2. Send your entry/entries directly to me, by email.

3. From the entries, we will choose the top 3 finalists.  We will call you up and have you do your intro over the phone On Sunday Oct 26, and from there we will judge the best of the best. 
 
The prize for the winner:
**Introducing Bounding Main in a pivotal show!
and
**2 tickets to the show!
 
The deadlines for entries is Wednesday Oct 22.

From Gunner Maggie: 

Attention all you Pirates and Pirate Lovers!

Bounding Main will be performing at the Port Washington Pirate Festival next weekend, June 7&8, a festival anxiously awaited by many Bounding Mainiacs.  There will be lots of activities for the whole family, for the tough pirate in you, and for the romancing types as well.

The entertainment will include the intrepid Jock Stewart http://jesselinderbard.livejournal.com/; the exotic Rakshanda http://www.rakhshanda.com/; and our buddies from Kansas City, The Jolly Rogers http://www.chivalry.com/jollyrogers/!!! Go see them if you haven’t; or if you have, go see ‘em again.  They’re worth it.

Keep checking back to the festival website http://www.portpiratefestival.com/, but as of now, the Bounding Main performance times are as follows:

Saturday
    1PM Dead Man’s Dock Stage
    2PM Buccaneer Bar & Stage
    5PM Governor’s Gazebo Stage
   
Sunday    
    10AM Governor’s Gazebo Stage
    3PM Buccaneer Bar & Stage
    5PM Dead Man’s Dock Stage
   
Sometimes there is an end-of-day sing-out, involving all our friends – watch for it!

This continues to be one of our favorite events, so we hope you can join us!!

PS The extravaganza went awesome last night! It was a long event, but very fun.  We cannot thank our Mainiacs enough, for their amazing and continuous generosity.  Check back to the Deport website http://deport.boundingmain.com/ in the next few days, for updates to our total funds raised.  I think we made some serious headway last night.
