Description
These are some of the friends I spent last weekend (Sept 19-20) at the Michigan Renaissance Festival with. Introductions are in order, I suppose: The one on the left is my former housemate Eric, in the middle is his twin brother Mark, and on the right is their friend Carlos. These 3 made most of their garb themselves, and they are sporting the drinking horns that Eric made. Carlos is also sporting a helmet that Eric made several years ago. Yeah, these are the kind of people I hang around... So now you know a bit more about how I get so obsessive about the details in my own costumes, it's partly so I can compete with this!
We had a great time, drank a wee bit more than we probably should, watched real full-contact jousting, listened to great live music, and generally fooled around for two days in costumes, what's not to like about that???
Enjoy what's left of your weekend everyone!

(((Michael)))..I've been away for so long, and was thrilled to be here when this post popped up. So glad to find you well, and savoring your favorite pasttimes! The guys look great, and the energy says that it was a blast of a time. I definitely need to catch up here, as time allows, and see what you've been up to. Wondering if all that you'd been working on, garb-wise, made it's debut yet..lol. Thanks for sharing this glimpse with us. Good times...good times. :)

Great costumes! Thing with drinking out of a horn is that you can't put it down until it's empty. So it encourages drinking a wee bit.

This is a great shot...too bad you're not in it! You'd fit right in, and that's a compliment. Great details, and I can't help but wonder at the anthropology behind the costumes. The details are so realistic, and they seem to follow a kind of cultural logic that I like. I saw garb like this in the Czech Republic...most of it was historical and worn by actors of course, but the costumes were traditional Czech...not quite so extravagant as these, but wow...the effect was the same, which just goes to show that these are great costumes. I'd love to see them in person! Great work on numerous levels here, and you hang with a cool crowd!
