Variety Performers

Ample and Trite Storytelling bawdy wenches, oooo hotdam they're funny!	Broon He's big. Exceptionally so. He hates it when you mention that, so don't. At 6 feet 6 inches, 2 hundred some odd pounds, Brian Howard is one large fabulous hunk of raw comedy meat. His show is funny dammit and you will go to see it. Because you love the Broon Show, You love the Broon Show. You Love The Broon Show.......	The Commidiots Swordfighting, whip-cracking, cross-dressing... a triple threat!
Don Juan and Miguel A couple of the elder statesmen of the Ren Faire circuit, these two were doing it when bob was still a dust mote in smuj's eye. Dammit, their show is funny... if you like that sort of thing.	Hack and Slash These young upstarts think they got it going on. Alright, so maybe they do. But must they be so cocky? Their show is funny dammit.	Ik the Troll He's soooooo cute.....and funny dammit.
Mr. Puppet	The Mud Show This is the original... everything else is just a show in the mud.	The Other Brothers These guys used to be called "Throw Up!" - a way better name, if you ask me.
Puke and Snot Well, what can I say... their name says it all.	The Swordsmen (Dirk and Guido) This show has it all: witty, macho, bold and stupid men, and screaming women. It's funny dammit!	Theatre in the Ground These guys are so dam'd funny...watch them soil their pants.
Thom Sellectomy This guy sticks all kinds of crap down his gullet. Doesn't sound funny, but it is. Damn funny.	The Tortuga Twins Look, they ain't twins, they ain't even brothers, so what the f**k!	Washing Well Wenches The well wenches are the best act on the circuit. They are beyond funny dammit. They are nut-bursting, butt-bouncing, puke-in-your-own-lap funny.
Wyldman Two grown men playing in the mud....honestly! Goddam they're funny.	Zoltan the Adequate This is the guy who helped create this web site so I have to say something nice, or nothing at all. [My cup runneth over - ZtA]	The Zucchini Brothers Back in 86, when ded bob was a non-entity, the Z. Bros. were flinging their way into the hearts of millions of Renaissance Festival audiences from Minneapolis to Viscaya. Their show is funny, dammit. So see it or... don't, what do I care?

Musicians

Andy Offut Irwin Offut the Minstrel Behind the sweet innocent exterior lies the heart of a praying mantis. Don't turn your back on this guy, he'll eat you alive.	Axel the Sot He's a slobbering, puking drunk... but funny dammit. Makes me laff all day.	The Bilge Pumps These guys make the Backstreet Boys look like... the Backstreet Boys.
Cantiga If there is paradise (which there is not), this band would provide the soundtrack.	Jim Hancock THE HARDEST WORKING MAN IN THE RENAISSANCE BUSINESS	The Minstrels of Mayhem This show is funny dammit. And their wives are forces to be reckoned with.
The Real Rio My next door neighbor, Rio Blue. The Host with the Most in Tune Town.	Three Guys and a Bunch of Drums These guys hit things with other things, and they do it dam good!	Wine, Women and Song A fabulous pair... and the two guys are pretty talented too.

Artisans

Adorn Thyself Threads for Ded Heds	BaliWood They used to be my neighbors. Everything Bali is in their astounding shop.	Crystal Mountain Intimate friends and they smell good too!
The Purple Unicorn These folks are responsible for some of bob's finest apparel. See them at fine festivals everywhere.	Renaissance Moccasins Shoes?!! I don't think so! The word 'shoes' hardly does them justice. Wearing these moccasins is like walking in pudding... or should I say, 'blamange'.	Scentually Yours Smell Yummy... you'll get laid more.
The Shakespeare Tavern This is where it all started for ded bob. The director of the company: Jeff Watkins is a man of vision and mania. If you're ever in Atlanta....

A Guide to
Renaissance Faire Costumes

Submitted by a teacher (which means she's automatically a hottie), despite being on a commercial website (which is not explicitly or endorsed by Ded Bob Inc., a division of Smuj International Comglomerate), this page has a whack of useful information for those of you creating your renfaire garb on the cheap.
