I'll wrap up my focus on northeast Oklahoma Ren talent with some leather working (Videos 1-3) & a nighttime fire show (Videos 45-47).   If you need to fill your faire with performers or vendors, you can reach out to these folk I have highlighted the past few weeks.

There looks to be 3 Good Days (Fri - Sun) this weekend.  You can visit Gulley Park in Fayetteville, Arkansas to experience the The Narnia Faire.   https://thenarniafaire.com  Here's the short interview I did with the 4 Royals there last year.

As I mentioned on my last Meister's Realm LIVE video, THIS SATURDAY, SEPT. 14 will see the return of the Hobbit Day Party at Tulsa's Central Library.  The address is 400 Civic Center 74103.  There is covered parking available.

It runs from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.  This year, they will be showing "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" w/ a potato bar and trivia afterwards!  They will also have children's crafts and activities as well as an activity in Maker Space.  This is a fun, air conditioned event!
 
Garbing up is encouraged.  I hope to see you there!

Good day!  Here's a video I should have made years ago.  It isn't just one Ezndil song, it's several songs with all of the funny comments & reactions in between.  Seeing this couple is always a memorable experience.  They sure know how to fill the time between songs & ensure people leave with a smile on their faces.  Huzzah!

Wondering what kind of tree made the longbow that English archers used to decimate armies of French knights at places like Agincourt during the 100 Years War?  They are still around today, maybe even in your own neighborhood...

Good day.  If you missed my Meister's Realm LIVE last week, I've uploaded it to YT.

Remember, if you need a break from the craziness in the world or anything going on in your personal world that you're not happy with, you can visit my YT channel, my website or Meisters Realm Photos to get an escape from reality.

Faire travels!

I hate to post sad news but this time I must.  The Rampant Rooster, Lary Fowler  Bagpiper passed away on Tuesday, May 28th.  I met Lary at the Northwest Arkansas Renfest in Fayetteville in 2008.  He told me lots about organizing Renfaires.  I made 2 trips to the Four Winds Renaissance Faire in Tyler & a trip to the Avalon Faire in Kilgore, TX to hang out with him over the years.  He even met me at Sherwood Forest Faire in 2018.  He was a good friend, the nicest guy & a heck of a bagpiper.

After 1 of his performances, he told me that he messed up a song pretty badly.  I laughed & told him that none of us who don't play the pipes would ever know.  That cracked him up.

Faire thee well, Lary!  I hope to hear you playin' the pipes in Heaven!  Ephesians 2:8-9

Don't take your family, friends or fairemily for granted.  Show & tell them that you appreciate them whenever you can.

Need something Rennish to listen to on the way to or back home from a Renfaire?  Wearing out your Celtic cd's due to playing them over and over and over?

Then check out my YouTube channel.  You can listen to interviews with many unique characters, hear songs I have recorded at faires, scroll through my Public Service Announcements, experience what I saw after walking inside the gates of numerous events and/or review my Realm LIVE events.

(In order to safely review these videos while in your vehicle, it would be best to bookmark a few of them on your phone before leaving or have a passenger pull them up while you are driving.)

I found out that a rumor I had heard was true today.  (Do you know the difference between a rumor & the truth?:  A few months.)

I had heard that you can buy half-price tickets for the Oklahoma Renfest at the ticket booth after 3 p.m.  Today, I found out that was right.  I got tix for $12.50 each so I can much more affordably return to Castleton this spring.  Huzzah!
