Frederickstad, St. Croix, US Virgin Islands |
Ol' Chumbucket, Mad Sally and several o' the Junior Chumbuckets are stickin' close to their island home for the holiday. They're once again planning to attend Captain Killy's pirate party at Cane Bay, where "something special" is in the works. Last year's party featured pirate music, plenty of liquid refreshment, knife and flaming ax throwing, cannonball tossing, and more. (Don't you wish you lived on the islands?) |

Bring the Pirate Guys to your gig
With the recent relocation of the Chumbucket clan to St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, the Pirate Guys' availability for free appearance is, shall we say, limited. Day jobs permitting, the guys are available for a limited number of paid gigs, assuming travel and lodging are covered. Contact Mad Sally with inquiries.
For local (Oregon/Washington) events, contact Cap'n Slappy.
The closer it gets to September 19th each year, the faster the calendar fills up, so contact us early!
