Aye, I just noticed that m'self; so there's still 10 days left, who knows, mebbe we'll get above $30 by then. But I'd still like t' hear from th' other band members as t' how they feel about th' issue. If there's agreement with Rosie from 4 or 5 people, we can still go an do a show with that many, an no one'll be thought ill of fer feelin diffrent. I figger I'm much less goal-driven than most folks in th' game, so workin on buildin new characters somewhere instead o' spendin all my time in Rohan don't bother me none, but I know that t' some folks, that may be a significant sacrifice, an that's a perfectly legitimate stance. An o' course, there's no tellin if we'd HAVE t' build new characters; might very well be someone on Landy that heard our set Saturday that's biddin fer our services ;)
Characters: Dallofin Bolderbrook, Foxfern Gullywash, Erriwende Baelwealda, Celbrethion Hathollos, Futhork Stonescriber, Garaeth Raedstan, Lisbit Honeymeade, Priyzgard, Thaelo Thistledown, Naurfin (On Crickhollow)

My feeling is that $20.50 for baby hobbits is better than $0 for baby hobbits. I hope we get to $30, but if we don't I'm still willing to make an alt wherever.

As the auction comes down to the wire it looks like we're in the midst of a bidding war. The good news is that the price is currently sitting at $32.50, so our reserve price shall indeed be met.
I'm looking forward to playing wherever we may end up.

Thank you for the memories, Second Breakfasters! Much love to you all. ~ Crickhollow Music
Well, as it happens, I went ahead a couple o' days ago an told Goldenstar t' drop th' Reserver price. but I'm glad t' hear we're up above $30 anyways, b'cause ... let's face it, we're worth it I'm truly proud o' where we've come in th' past year (Oi! Been a year now, more or less, since I had th' Band placed in m' lap, as it were), an grateful fer all th' folks that keep turnin up every week t' play! Thank'ee all o' ye!

All righty, we got our Concert Winner's info; I'll just share th' entire email I got here:
Thanks so much! First off, very kind of you and yours to donate your time! I heard and watched you play at Tom's house and decided right then that I would bid.
I'm located on the Gladden Server.
As far as tune selection.. I would like you to play what you most enjoy.. "I" really enjoyed the songs that had the lyrics with them.
If there is anything I can do to help ya'll out.. please let me know.. coin.. gear.. food or anything you might need. Take whatever time you may need and don't hesitate to contact Dahd on Gladden.
My intention is to invite my kin (The Old Timers Guild) and LilyRose of The Rangers of the West, and her choice of guests. I'm guessing the crowd wouldn't be any larger than the party at Tom's house.
Again, thank you so much for offering up your time to help out the baby hobbits!
A Fan,
Dahd of Middle Earth
Seems I was right that he heard us at that concert , but that don't mean he was from Landy ;)
So, we got our marchin orders; I don't imagine anyone's got characters on Gladden yet, but if y' happen t' have one, yer ahead o' th' game ;)
I'll be happy t' get a character t' 25 an play all th' Bagpipes, but that'd mean that someone else'll have t' do th' singin... I'll ask him if he's got a perticular weekend in mind, an even if he'd like t' postpone it til th' Yule season, an have some Chrismas tunes in th' mix, but I'd like us t' be READY t' go by mid-November. I think that ought t' be enough time fer everyone t' get leveled up without puttin undue strain on anyone.
Seems like a good fellow, an he's lettin us pick our own playlist, so it ought t' be a breeze, an fun, t' boot. An I'll make up a playlist, but since he's askin us t' play what WE like, I'm takin requests from th' Band members. Reply here, or send me a PM, an let me know which songs ye'd all like t' play.
I'll ask if he's able t' come up with some Sea Blue Dyes, but if that's not somethin he can produce himself, I ain't goin t' ask him t' buy 'em in th' AH. We can play in civvies, as this ain't goin t' be a Formal gig.
Our Contract is fer 30-45 minutes o' music, so I'll build a 45-ish minute set, but if we're havin fun, I ain't opposed t' playin longer; we can do as many encores as anyone likes

That's great, I hope he will enjoy our band again!
Shouldn't be a problem to work on a character on a new server, leveling at that "age" is pretty fast. But I would like that you sing the songs since you know best when to hit the "talk" button during a song. So I guess I will be leveling to 25 then.
Btw, Goblin Mesh it is for my suggestion (if there are enough people?)!

Here she is, all shiny and new. One of these days I'll write down the appearance choices when i make an alt, but she looks dang close. Lark and Larksong were both taken on Gladden, so I added another feather to the wing. And she's not an elf--they're too persnickety.
I placed Dahd and LilyRose on my friends list and hope to make contact with them when I'm there. Perhaps they or their kin will help us level up some, and we can forge some new friendships along the way As Rosalie said, it's nice that we can bring our music to them.
For the next couple of Saturdays, can some or all of the band members get together either before or after practice and fellow up for some leveling, even if it's just an hour or so? Might be fun!
No music preferences here. Let's play a rousing good concert with lots of variety and make it a great time for everyone.

As to music, you know your songs better than I so I leave it up to you.
Some of Blondel's tunes have lyrics that might be ok to use:
The Andune Reel - can drop theorbo then would need 6 players
We could change the name Carica for something else that scans:
#Such a greedy little hobbit, there once was
#Carica was her name, she was plump and round
#Food was her vice, she was dedicated
#She practiced a lot and her technique was sound
#Try and think of something she would not eat
#Put it before her and just watch it vanish
#Biscuits, pies and cakes were her favourites
#But her hunger pangs they did not banish.
#All kinds of meat and vegetables too
#disappeared quickly followed by dessert
#Some cheese and fruit helped to fill a corner
#and a little more pie surely wouldn't hurt.
#Now it wasn't just food, oh dear me no
#She ate lebethron, ash and yew tree wood
#All the different hides became easy meat
#But could she eat the metals? Yes, she could!
Break
#Now I don't want you to think that she was greedy
#She would just be polite and clear her plate
#And to wash it all down she needed a drink
#So beer and wine were ordered by the crate.
#Now, tell me true, have you seen a hobbit eat?
#It's not a pretty sight, the speed they scoff
#The foods pile up and in the mouth it goes
#and disappears quickly without a cough.
#And when she clears her plate, she looks at yours
#and makes those sad eyes that make you feel bad
#Next thing you know you'd be passing your plate
#and seeing her happy just made you feel glad.
#One day she'll bite off more than she can chew
#and she'll likely explode and make a big mess
#But I'm not betting on it any time soon
#She's a champion eater and simply the best.
#Such a greedy little hobbit, there once was
