We want Wills..........we want Wills.......

heres your own thread mate, to blog on and promote any pirating activites..enjoy!

Well, I'm finding it difficult to balance between my two main characters Anakin and Will. Thus far I have been able to time out the facial hair but I don't know how I'm going to be able to balance out the hair difference between the two. Right now my hair is right on the line of being too long on the sides for Anakin, but it is still way too short for Will. I don't know what I'm going to end up doing. For now I have a ponytail extension that I am using for Will but I hate worrying about it falling off.

As far as upcoming events, I am going to be doing Will at the upcoming Great Lakes Medieval Faire in like 2 weeks. Still not going to have my Will sword, but I may just go swordless instead of using the plastic sword like I did last time.

My brother in law and I are currently practicing our Anakin/Obi-Wan duel for our next performance. We will be doing the duel for Erich Kunzel once again. This time in Chicago at the Ravinia Festival. It will be on August 1st. If anyone up in that area is looking for something to do that day, please come out, it will be a great time!

In case you haven't seen our duel video before, here is the show we did in Lima, OH on New Years Eve last year...

Also, I just got an email from the lady that has been researching the Will sash for me. She thinks she has figured out how to do it and she is going to start experimenting! I'll definitely keep everyone updated on that!

Wow, that's quite a video! Great job!

Looking forward to seeing your Will pics from the Great Lakes Medieval Faire!

by **Captain Sea Wolf** on Sun Jul 13, 2008 7:50 pm

Wow---in front of a full orchestra!! That was awesome!! Can't wait to see more pics, Feezle.

by **Feezle** on Sun Jul 13, 2008 7:56 pm

Yeah, that was a small orchestra. We have also done it for the Cincinatti Pops, The National Symphony Orchestra(3 times at the Kennedy Center in DC), and next up is the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. They are definitely some of my favorite events. The kids love it and afterwards we always get mauled.

Well, my wife and I bought a house so we didn't think we were going to get to go the the Ren Faire due to finances. Then the night before we decided we could do it. What made that interesting is that I shaved my facial hair off 3 days prior. We made due and ended up having a lot of fun. Here are some pics:

by **Captain Sea Wolf** on Sun Jul 27, 2008 6:28 pm

Interesting how we manage to find the bucks for the things we love, eh? You guys looked great--loved the little Davey Jones!!

by **Feezle** on Sun Jul 27, 2008 6:36 pm

I need to dig through my other pics. There was this cute little boy that came up to me like 6 times to talk to me. He wanted his picture taken with Will and Elizabeth, not Jack. That was a first! I think this 5 year old knew more about Will than I did. As we were about to leave, he came up to me to warn me that he saw Davey Jones and that he was looking for me and my crew and that he wanted to take us to the locker. He was dead serious too.

by **Feezle** on Sun Jul 27, 2008 6:43 pm

Here we go...

by **Captain Sea Wolf** on Sun Jul 27, 2008 6:50 pm

I don't know if that's cute or scary!! A future pirate-obsessed kid for sure!! Look at his shirt!!

by **appy** on Sun Jul 27, 2008 7:29 pm

Well done feezle...and too cute with the little boy...good to know the history of POTC will continue in the hearts of our youth... maybe we will see him here when he gets older and he can tell us all about the day he met you and your wife...

Love the costume too...and congrats on buying your house. Welcome to the world of a fixer up it...

Haven't posted lately because I haven't done any events lately. I gained some weight over winter and I am just starting to take it off now. Still not happy with how I look in my Turner costume yet, but I'll get there. Anyway, my daughter was just born 2 weeks ago and she went to her first event today. We did Pirates Weekend in Put In Bay. Had a great time! A little sword play, a parade, a costume contest for the kiddies...awesome event!

Pics are here:

She's adorable and you make a very dashing Will Turner.

by **Feezle** on Thu Jul 15, 2010 2:39 am

Well...my Jack got called away on business a couple months ago and I had to fill in for a library event.

Then last weekend we did Tall Ships in Cleveland. More pics of this to come.

ahoy mate. good to see yer latest exploits...I think the whole band of you together is just amazing..bet you have many an admiring glance doing a double take!! :arr

Fair Winds me fine fellows!!

by **burnin4turner** on Thu Jul 15, 2010 5:25 pm

Great photos! Does your daughter show any preference yet between Jack and Will? Or does it scare her when you dress up? I was terrified of big hats when I was her age.

by **Feezle** on Thu Jul 15, 2010 5:41 pm

She doesn't seem to have a preference. I was expecting her to be confused when we were around another Jack and it wasn't me, but she wasn't.

That isn't my daughter in the one pic. It is her Vader twin. Our local Darth Vader had his daughter the same day as we had ours. Since I am Anakin and he is Vader, we call them the Vader twins.

by **burnin4turner** on Thu Jul 15, 2010 6:16 pm

And you know that spells trouble for you and Darth Daddy when the twinkies grow up!

by **Feezle** on Sat Jul 17, 2010 2:13 am

As promised...

by **Jen Turner** on Sat Jul 17, 2010 10:39 am

Ouch mate, that looks like one painful sunburn!

by **appy** on Mon Jul 19, 2010 8:34 pm

Looking good mate, but agree...that is one painful sunburn... even pirates use sunscreen...
