FAQ
Lots of questions have been asked, all are answered below. Any other questions, just ask and they'll be added to this list...
Q: What time should we arrive to ensure good
seating? Is this a bar with tables or more of a theater with seats,
or will we be standing near the stage in a Pirate Mosh Pit?
A: Doors open at 7pm -
Performances start sometime between 8:30 and 9, and will continue
until around 1:00am There are very few tables and seating on the
performance side of Davey’s Uptown, it’s mainly just an open room
with a stage and a bar. As with the last time we performed there,
people will probably be standing all the way up to the stage
Q:
Are the guys wearing their pirate gear or 21st century clothes? How
many attending are wearing costumes?
A: We (Musical Blades) will
be in pirate garb, and I think the Jolly Rogers will be as well. If
I had to guess I'd say roughly 75% of the people coming will also be
dressed as pirates
Q:
Will there be bodice diving for tips? If so I will be sure to set my
bodice at half mast or lower for your diving pleasure. It is much
harder to dive if I wear a t-shirt. A: Though we won’t be "passing hat", of course gratuity is accepted, as well as appreciated, and bodice diving is fun! :) Q: Do I have to be at least 21 years old to be at this show. A: Yes. This particular show is being held at a bar. 21 and over only. Q: I went to the February show. It was suppose to start at 7pm but performances started an hour and a half late! Will this be the case again? A: Yes... and No. The show in February, as specified several times via musicalblades.com, facebook, and myspace, started between 8:30 and 9, with doors opening at 7pm. As with the February show, the June 19th show will again have "doors open" at 7pm, with performances starting between 8:30 and 9:00 and lasting until 1:00am Q: In February I left after the Musical Blades, but later heard they went on again after the Jolly Rogers went on. And then later both bands did songs together at the end!? Is this true? Was there a lot that I missed? A: We heard this a few times, as some thought the Musical Blades, after we left the stage the first time, must've just been an opening act. If you left the bar after the first set, yes, you missed A LOT. Each group did two 45 minutes sets, followed by 20 minutes or so of a Blades/Rogers finale where both groups got up on stage together with songs and goofiness. This, like last time, will be a full-on Pirate night, stick around and get your money's worth. We don't think you'll be disappointed.
Q:
Are we allowed to video and photograph? I would like to add more
images to my collection used for my personal pleasure. :)
A: Though we can't speak for
the JR's, we're all about it!! Indeed, bring the cameras! We're
going to :)
