Now THAT Is Punk As Fuck...

Look at these young ruffians; who the hell let them get armed and organized?

The Early Days of das Schwarz Faehnlein; Blackpoint Faire, Navato, CA

Left to Right: Conn MacLir, Tony Swatton, Tom Moon, Chris Cook, David Forrest, Martin Young, Scott Moore, Jeff Schroeter,Carl Ontis, Don Smith

I believe this was from the Old Camp, out in front of the gates to the Faire itself.

A merrier, swankier and more vicious group of scalliwags and crooks, harlots and bastards was never seen to walk the earth. I have the very great honor of knowing many of them.

;)

Yes! Sadly all this lovely hard-built structure is gone, gone, gone. The original front gate was demolished decades ago to make more room for the event (I believe this was back when they expanded for tourney field?) and of course the whole of Blackpoint has been bulldozed for years as well now (much to the sadness of many old time CA faire goers and participants).

I’ll keep my fingers crossed in hopes that you guys get a hard-structure site!

Well, so there's this: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=204462509039735363243.000499d94905ee8868142&msa=0&ll=38.103106,-122.506979&spn=0.012968,0.019205
If you view it in Google Earth, you can use the historic imagery feature to look at it in 1995, I want to say. Unfortunately, that imagery isn't available on plain ol' Google Maps though.

OK, I have it called up on Google Earth but cannot figure out how to find the historical imagery feature.

Techno-tard. *sigh*
