Oh, the wailing, the mourning, the gnashing of teeth!  Sackcloth and
ashes! A dark, dire day of danger, death and destruction, a dreary dearth
of delight, deadly to dozens of doleful denizens doomed to dwell in
dimness, dullness, despair and dementia!

And a great reason to hold one heck of a party!

Yes, it’s the Seventh Annual Padraig Ruad O’Maolagain Wake and Bardic
Beerfest, which will be held at the upcoming Dragonsfire Tor’s Guardian of
the Tor.  The good Autocrats of Guardian of the Tor have kindly granted
their permission to hold the Wake there this year,

Date:  Saturday, 30 April
Time:  Whenever all of the event’s scheduled activities have finished up
Place:  Broken O on the Brazos, in the Loch Ruadh encampment

Things to bring:  Snacks to share, whatever you like to drink, mugs,
chairs, musical instruments, songbooks, etcetera.

Food!  Drink!  Dancing!  Singing!  A dead Irishman!  What more could you
ask for?

If nothing else, come for the Dead Bard Competition – not the most
prestigious Bardic mantle a bard might ever wear, but perhaps one of the
most interesting.  Bring your best songs, poetry and prose about Death,
Destruction, Gloom and Doom (and no, it’s not just a typical Irish bardic
circle).  Compete for the honor (?) of being the Dead Bard.

Come help us celebrate Life with our annual spoof on Death.
