I'm James Hooke.

I'm a Musician and Entertainer with Port O'Thority and have appeared at various Renaissance Faires, Fan Conventions, Pirate Festivals, and Celtic Faires nationwide.

I have been entertaining people for over 30 years. I hope I've entertained you through stage shows, pub crawls, ticketed events, live productions or even my unhinged memes. It has been a life long passion of mine to make people smile.

It is with sincere humbleness and more than a little embarrassment that I request this: I need your help.

I recently had a stroke. My recovery is steady but slow and expensive.

I haven't been able to work since the stroke in May and likely won't be able to until August.

I currently walk with a cane and require in house aid.

I need help/money to cover day to day bills and medical expenses until I am able to work again.

With your help, I can get through this and get back to what's important: entertaining you guys.

Thank you for donating whatever you can, every little bit helps, and for sharing this to your social media to get the word out.

Slainte!
