Back at PA

Greetings friends and fans:

Well, we're back at the Pennsylvania Renaissance Festival at Mt. Hope and are loving it! Although the weather was a mite muggy the people came out on Saturday to help us celebrate OUR first day at PA this year. (This was the festival's second weekend). The festival has changed its hours - from 11 am 'til 8 pm. Great hours. We'll be here for the next five weekends so stop by and say hi to Don Juan, Esmeralda or me.

We do have a bunch of friends out here - The Tartan Terrors are back - and are great people! Plus we're working with Jim Hancock and Bob Bielelfeld of the Burley Minstrels. Many of you will recognize Bob as the talented Flute player from Cantiga. Jim actually joins us at the "weird Show" in a rendition of "Don't Make Me Sing Along". I love doing that song, it is so weird! Empty Hats is here along with Looney Lucy, Barely Balanced is back in a new incarnation which includes Giacomo the Jester's son Caleb! (talk about generations). And we join Gary Mazzu at the "Finale in Song" in his rendition of Old King Henry/Drunken Sailor. (or did Jim Hancock come up with it?) I play the Bladavarius.

Work is chugging forward on the latest film project. We're thinking of calling it either "Bernard the Bad Guy" or "Bernard, Potential for Danger" or just "Potential for Danger". Any thoughts?

We are still planning on finishing Martha Gay's project by the end of September - I personally cannot wait!

Well, that's the news. As I've said, now that filming is through, I should be able to keep up with this more often.

Be well.

Love, luck and self!

I like "Bernard the Bad Guy," because the alliteration makes me giggle. "Bad, Bad Bernard" popped into my head, but it makes him sound like a disobedient puppy. Or Leroy Brown. ;)

Have fun in PA!

I, too, love Duncan's music. He is at once witty and wistful, playful and emotional. Did you know he wrote the title song for the Hey Nunnie Nunnie! Chirstmas CD "Everyday is Christmas"? It is sweet and tearful - an ode to our dearly departed freind Bodge.

His musical influence on Lost Princess is great, and he helped to write some new and original music in our upcome project "The Tales Of Don Juan and Miguel". Such a pleasure to work with!
