The Bilge Pumps - Past Landings: Texas Pirate Festival 2016
Hillsboro, TX     July 9 - 10, 2016
Although the rainy Spring weather pushed the festival back into the heat of July, the Texas Pirate Festival held more great people than it ever had before!
There were good friends and good fans to be had all over the site and we enjoyed getting to hook up with everyone from the friendly confines of the Jack Tar Tavern and our Pirate Music booth.
Though only 4 Bilge Pumps were able to make it, we swelled up to 4/3 our normal size and took care of the pirating anyway.
Only four Bilge Pumps managed to show up to skip out on work with "Banana Boat Pirates".
John Crow the Cook gets spit in the eye by one of the other pirates... who promptly blame the absent Sharkbait.
Maroon the Shantyman is either crooning out a lovely note or just fell asleep during the song.
Look who's sporting a beard! Splice the Rigger!
Only one Bilge Pump has been in the band as long as that T-shirt is old. We make quality goods!
The Bilge Pumps lead along the hottest and dustiest parade in the ren world.
Splice and John Crow assume their traditional positions between shows.
