2006 is clearly the Year of the Pirate, with this limey pop culture meme invading everything in Toronto from DJ Lazarus fetish parties to festivals at Fort York.
This Friday’s Pirates of the Streetcarrr Parrrty by Newmindspace is no exception to the swashbuckling madness. Attendees are promised “Pirates and mermaids from the briney deep,” bottles of rum, old maritime songs and a surprise event in the middle. Let’s hope it’s not walking the plank.
