Avast, ye scallywags and fine mates of the sea!

 

This be Blackbeard speakin’, and I bid ye a thunderin’ welcome to the Annual Pirate’s Ball, brought forth by the fearless crew of the Austin Texas Parrot Head Club!

Hoist the sails and ready yer boots, for the night be filled with merriment, music, and mischief fit for the fiercest pirates of the Caribbean! Ye’ll be tappin’ yer peg legs and raisin’ yer grog to the tunes of Jonas Lorence, Joel Block, Dan Sullivan, David Doolittle, and the raucous rogues known as El Wencho.

But beware, me hearties — only the bold and the brazen who don their finest pirate garb shall be welcome at the grand ball come Saturday night. So polish yer cutlass, straighten yer tricorne, and make ready to dance ‘til the moon dips below the horizon!

 

Thank ye for joinin’ the crew on this grand adventure. May yer rum be strong, yer laughter loud, and yer spirit as wild as the open sea!

 

Fair winds and full sails,

— Captain Blackbeard
