My problem with the pirates is not so much that are dressed like pirates (I think everyone loves a good pirate now and then argh), but that EVERYONE is dressed like Jack Sparrow. Like a good kit ensemble, variety is the spice of life.

Trying to stay close to topic here, but does anyone know of a highland event in the US that's fairly traditional/conservative? More of a Scottish feel than a Renn-Faire with kilts?
