Dudes, you're filming up in the "great white north" (hint it in the title) during winter and you only bring denim jackets?!

At least put a scarf on, Gill - I get that you're chief but *brrr*

Meet Gil in La Push This Saturday!

Just because this pic is all kinds of awesome :)

The Quileute Nation have invited Gil to be this year's guest of honour at the Quileute Days Festival in La Push:

“In honor of actor Gil Birmingham’s portrayal of tribal chairman Billy Black and his telling of the legends of the Quileute tribe in the block-buster film Twilight Saga Eclipse, the Quileute Nation has invited him to participate in Quileute Days, Saturday, July 16 [LB note - it is the 17th right?] at the Akalat Center Grounds. Quileute Days will run Friday through Sunday and will include traditional tribal games, softball games, a parade, vendors and more. The annual event is free to the public.

“We are delighted to welcome Gil to La Push and Quileute Days,” tribal spokeswoman Jackie Jacobs said. “It is an honor to have him join us in this very special celebration of Quileute culture and traditions. How wonderful to have Gil Birmingham, who portrays Council Chairman Billy Black in ‘Twilight Saga: Eclipse’ meet the true Chairwoman Anna Rose Councell-Geyer and the other members of the Quileute Tribal Council.”

On Saturday, Birmingham will join in the festival parade at noon, hold a 3 p.m. autograph session — a $20 contribution is required(proceeds benefit the elders of the Quileute Nation) — and will make a 4 p.m. guest appearance at the Talent Showcase.

“I am truly honored to be invited to the Quileute Nation this weekend as they celebrate their culture and traditions,” said Gil Birmingham (Comanche) from his home in Los Angeles, CA. “In the three Twilight Saga films, I attempted to portray Billy Black and Quileute tribal members with honor and respect. The entire premise of the Twilight books and movies is based on Quileute tribal legends which are deeply rooted in the ancient cultural traditions. It was important to me that the legends, as well as an honest portrayal of modern day Native Americans, come through in the film Eclipse.”

The theme of Quileute Days this year is “History through Our Traditions,” focusing on education about the authentic Quileute history, legends and culture. Stick games — a traditional betting game — will begin at 6 p.m. Friday and at 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Also, there will be a Jacob Black and Bella Swan look-alike contest.”

P.s. Not to detract from the import of this event, but I recently found out that Gil was in an 80's music video - thanks MissTeJota ;)

Gil Birmingham's a funny guy?

In a recent article following Gil's appearance at the NJ Twilight convention:

... to the audience's delight, the jokes flew both ways. At one point, following a flirtatious exchange about taking his shirt off, Birmingham was asked by an audience member about his bigger part in "New Moon," to which he replied, "Am I bigger?" A quick-thinking woman in the auditorium then shot back, "Let's see."
