There were pirate quotes and references through out the show. Run Like Hell – “Arr, Arr, Arr” instead of “Run, Run, Run”. Brosiah Man Down had lots of pirate lyrics. UFO – “UFPS: Unidentified Funky Pirate Ship”. Before set three there was a humorous “Dubstep” jam with Matt on Drums and Luke on Synth.

The 2nd annual Pirate show was an epic, epic evening. Held in a private barn owned by Jerry Jam organizer Dan Webb (you can thank him for the large number of Dead tunes) that has been decorated like a pirate ship, complete with a balcony and captains wheel over looking the stage, the band and audience dressed in full pirate gear. Cookies, huge turkey legs, and rum were abound at this BYOB event. Matt was referred to as “Matisyahu” all night due to his beard.

Set 1 started at 9:30PM. Set III ended around 3:30AM.

Set IV started with Luke solo, then added the rest of the band at the end of Pizza Towers. Then Luke left at some point. They Aaron left about 20 minutes later. Aarron reappeared 30 minutes later, then left during Amish Paradise. Matt and Eric finally stopped playing around 6 AM.

The shows length can in part be attributed to a group of fans who, having attended their first show the night before in Boston, rounded a crew up and made the 3 hour drive. They didn’t leave the room except for set breaks! That and… well of course copious amounts of RUM and GROG!!!
