FYNE!!!
I ADMIT IT!!!
I’m a RAGING Jolly Rogers FAN!!!
Give me a flippin’ BREAK, here!
I think their vocal arrangements are FAR-and-ABOVE BETTER than ANY OTHERS’ on the planet. I’ve heard OTHERS perform many of the “traditional” songz that they do e’en at the 2005 KCRF!!! But, although talented, these OTHERS didn’t come close to the quality of the JR’s arrangements.
AND, by GAWDESS, my father is a retired University “Professor” of vocal music!
I’ve been inundated with vocal music styles from the tyme I romped about in soggy diapers,
until NOW (don’t EVEN ask me how many years that is!) Hence,
I know my CHIT when it comes to vocal music!
YES. To be honest, I also admit to LUSTING after ONE of them!
Likely, I should SHUT UP now. LOL
But, that doesn’t mean my critical assessment of their musical “worth” is skewed!
One of the reasons my favorite KCRF “People Watching” place was in the
NEWCASTLE PUB, is that is was right across from the PIRATE STAGE …
whereupon the JOLLY ROGERS didst perform!
performances, Linda suggested that I get pix taken on the PIRATE STAGE to send to the woman who made myne NEW Brigantine Bodice.
So, we popped over and asked

Otay. This JR Pirate is “Mark Mayhem!”
Here’s his BIO (stolen from the Jolly Rogers Website):
Mark Stahl also known as "Mayhem" is the Jolly Rogers' answer to the Chia Pet.
The once proud leader of the Ottoman Empire, Mark would much rather be in any group
other than the Jolly Rogers. He is currently a member of the Boy Scouts, the Girl Scouts,
AARP, NAACP, DECCA, FFA, PTA, NRA, AA, AAA, 12 fraternities, 4 sororities,
Boys' Club of America, Knights of Columbus, the Underachivers Association, the Church
of the Subgenius and the Mike Club (which he managed to join by cleverly misspelling
his name on the application form). If you have a club or organization you would like
Mark to join, forget it he's busy.
