Sun, May 18, 2008 - 5:34 PM“Pan was the Greek God who watched over shepherds and their flocks. He has the hindquarters, legs and horns of a goat, in the same manner as a satyr. Pan is one of the deities within the archetype of the Horned God but his ancestry lacks clarity. In legends, he is the son of Zeus and in other stories, he is the son of Hermes and his mother is said to be a nymph.” Zeus cast Pan from the heavens to tend goatherds for his ungodly and misshapen form unbefitting of a heavenly god.
I was going to the costumed event as Pan, come hell or high water and set off t on a quest to get the costume and accessories I needed. I tried local costume stores but soon realized that the outfit was going to be more difficult to obtain. After searching the East Bay stores on the Orinda side of the Caldecott Tunnel, I located a hole in the wall theatrical store in Berkeley. I found the bottom half of a horse that worked great for the hind end of the goat. I was able to purchase a wig, small horns, Pixie ears, mustache, goatee, spirit gum and of course spirit gum remover at this little treasure palace. One of my props was a wooden walking stick I had purchased at the Renaissance Fair in Petaluma. The handle on the stick was wrapped with green dyed cloth material and it had a hand carved tree spirit, which worked perfect for the Shepard's staff. The syrinx was easy to put together as I made the flute by hollowing out cut sections of bamboo and used a frizzed twine and hot glue to bind it together. All said and done, I was now “Pan”, son of Zeus or maybe Hermes or, who really knows?"

Re: Pan is Back!
Mon, May 19, 2008 - 6:22 PMThe icebreaker day was one of best I could remember in our Company’s long history. Part of the costume contest has always been to wear costumes on our travels to the affair and for me it meant from San Francisco’s SFO to Palm Springs. This was in 2000 and before the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center. Security at the airports was much more relaxed and our world was a different place. I transported the paraphernalia for the reconstruction of the body in a suitcase to airport. I had to wear my pointed ears, horns, mustache and goatee on the drive from Concord to SFO because the spirit gum needed a chance to setup. I got a few strange looks from the drivers on the 24 and 680 East Bay Freeways but once I crossed the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge, I blended with the locals. I parked my car, rode the courtesy shuttle to a drop off point in front of the airline and felt right at home. I got a small reaction from the ticket counter attendees but strode through the rest of the airport wearing my ears and fake facial hair without much fanfare.
I approached the security checkpoint and explained to the Officers that I had to wear this disguise to Palm Springs if I wanted to compete in the Company costume contest. After looking over my disguise, and talking for a moment, Security approved my request and an airline representative let me pass the checkpoint where I headed straight for the restroom to adorn my costume. According to men’s restroom etiquette in this century anyway, one does not look at the other men in a public restroom except maybe to ask for a hand towel. In fact, I felt invisible until I exited the restroom and my hoofs hit the carpet. (A Faerytale by Ron Cordes)
you are correct Bard, Pan is the King of fun, music and laughter, he is the "King of the Faeries" and they love kim to no end. -
