The year 2004 brought on a spreading of piracy all over the land as the Bilge Pumps got booked by some money-slinging corporations to do shows in California twice during the year and we used to opportunity to connect with some of our west coast fans. We also bid farewell to our guitarist Gil the Cooper and welcomed his replacement, Blue the Lookout. We also had a Bilge Pumps first as we were hired to perform at someone's wedding!

For those who are dying to know what pirates will do to your house if you dare to let them in the door, you can check out this collection of pics and movies from all the Bilge Pumps' stops in 2004. This archive is designed as a warning to children to never let a blind gay man dress you for work.
