Grand Prairie, TX     December 16, 2017

The Bilge Pumps made an appearance at the Grand Prairie Farmers Market to increase the area's pirate demographics, to spread the power of pirate Christmas carols to the locals, and to raid the occasional fruit stand to stave off the scurvy.

The City provided a lovely stage on a lovely day to hear unlovely pirates play

If one fake Rastafarian is too many, double down on it.

Maroon the Shantyman is forced to sing into two mics in the hope that at least one of them can pick up his voice.

Harvey the Corpsman gets the audience to sing along with the band for "Pirate Yells"

Don't know what happened on stage right, but suddenly Splice the Rigger is all alone.

See? Pirate bands can be straight! Like, up and down.

Singing about the jolliest ship for the holidays on our original song "Trimmin' in the Riggin'"

It can be difficult for Maroon to keep both a straight face and a straight beat with all the stuff going on the stage.

Happy Holidays from your Uncle Bilge Pumps!
