Good Cousins,
In less than a week we shall gather to celebrate the begining of a new
reign. There shall be festivities, feasting, and bold feats of arms,
enough to entertain any lord or lady from lands afar ... But we are
Atlantians and too much of a good thing is barely enough for us.
Therefore, there will be two bardic circles held in addition to all of
the other diversions available.
The first shall be held on Friday night. It shall be informal and is
open to performers and non-performers alike.
The second shall be held on Saturday night after the feast. It shall be
an "enchanted circle" in which performers and audience members alike are
asked to leave all elements of the mundane world behind. Performances
are to be of pre-17th century material or, at the very least, of period
style and topic (though documentation is neither required nor desired).
Any musicians who would serve their majesties by providing music during
the feast should contact me as they may.
Any minstrels or jongeurs who would play for those gathered at the
tavern should contact me as well.
Your servant until you tire of me,
Master Ruaidhri an Cu
