I worried that I’d put all our shanty gigs too close together and we wouldn’t be able to sell tickets. Instead, tonight’s Golden Hinde gig is sold out and the other three shows have had good sales.
I think we’re selling well because we encourage people to sing, dance and dress up. Community is key.

It’s nice being remembered fondly. I still get asked if I’m going to Dragoncon, when I haven’t been since 2013. I hope everyone going this year has a wonderful time!

I’m deep in my personal thoughts and grief this morning. A very dear American friend of mine died last year and I didn’t go over to be with the family because I had no money and didn’t want them to know that. I regret not going. With the political climate, It may be years before I’m in the US again.

Here’s a picture of me as a bumblebee hosting the costume competition at Fantasy Forest. I am almost definitely laughing at my own joke here.

I had a wonderful time at Fantasy Forest debuting my new cavalier bumblebee look and co-hosting the costume competition with Alice Strange.

I’ll share my new favourite feedback-

“I have to tell you, you have an amazing voice, but a terrible sense of humour.”

Folks, I will be at Fantasy Forest this weekend, co-hosting the costume contest with the wonderful Alice Strange. Come and say hi if you see me. I’ll be dressed as a bumblebee so I’ll be hard to miss.

By complete coincidence and in two different job roles, I am working closely with two of my favourite artists over the next two weeks. I can’t yet say more, but I am freaking out and will revisit this when I am allowed to.

My flatmate came home upset, so I gave her chocolate and a sword and she’s now gleefully happy. I don’t think I’m getting the sword back any time though.

We had the best time at our debut gig. Thanks to everyone who came to watch Frankie Heartless & The Heartless Rogues on our maiden voyage!

Genuine question. Why isn’t the patron saint of England St Edmund? The official denomination of Christianity is CoE and he died a martyr of it. Surely this makes more sense than old St Giorgios?

Living in the part of town you grew up in is wild. I’ve been coming to this cafe since before this waitress was born.

Brighton folks! See you tonight for shanties, jigs and pirate fun. I’m very proud to be one of the opening shows for @onceandfuturefest.bsky.social

I want to keep looking at cool sea shanty venues instead of focusing on my day job*! I’ve had some fab chats with various venues today and I want to keep going and booking gigs! Fancy some lively musical pirates? get in touch.

*I actually love my day job.

I really love, miss and worry for my American friends. I had hoped to hang out with a bunch of you later this year, but it’s not safe for me to visit as a queer Latine. May we meet again in better times.

I couldn’t have asked for a better international drag debut than Helsinki Drag Fest. It was amazing meeting so many artists from different countries, including this Spanish/Newcastle riot. ❤️
