So does some good metal. Henri is a real metal freak, so he gets bonus points from me!
Thanks for posting that. I like the sound a lot, my kind of Metal. I miss Rock and Metal. I live in Florida were Rap or Spanish music is all you get The Rock stations here suck a lot.

According to Williams wife. It went to the fifth fight.
Henri won the first fight with polearm, Gabriel won second with 2sword, Henry won third with sword and shield, Gabriel won 4th with great sword, and Henri won fifth fight. I beleive both had sword and shield.
Looking forward to seeing film of it.

Not bad with my predictions. 5 out of 6. Though curious if Tindal was there or not.
Tindal was there. He did not make the quarter finals. I did not fight. My horse was diagnosed with cancer on Monday and my head was not in the fight but elseware.
All th eparticipants are to be congratulated on this Crown. It was by far the most competitive and enjoyable to watch Crown I have witnessed since I've come back.
Take care,

Bad armour is like nuclear waste - Once it is released in to the environment it never really goes away.
He's going to OSU's Veterinary Clinic on Wednesday. With any luck we caught it on time and it can be treated. Won't know until he get a full examination and surgery what the expected prognosis is, but the people Doc in the house thinks we may get lucky on this one.
Take care,

I would like to thank to the Shire of Abhainn Ciach Ghlais for their wonderful hosting of the tournament. My Lady and I feel grateful and honored by the hospitality of the Shire and Kingdom. The facility, amenities, and pageantry were superb. There were banners on the list polls with the device of every fighter. Small shields with the fighter’s device were hung at the list for the fighters that were up and those making ready. Heralds in abundance ensured that information and announcements were heard beyond the list field. A basket lunch was brought to each pavilion. There were favors and gifts for all the consorts. My Lady and I had a wonderful time.
Leave the SCA better than you found it. Fight alot of cool people along the way.
Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.
It was indeed a great day of fighting. I can't remember having so much fun at an event. Our hosts were fantastic which made the day all the more grand for me.
Thank you to everyone for the awesome fights. Olaf as always thank you for posting the bouts on youtube.
FYI all, I was having video issues because I was trying to import directly to an external hard disk. Going straight to my local hard disk is getting much smoother, so I'll be reposting videos over the next week or so. I'll try to have a new final up tonight.
