Weatherstock IV
I'm still waiting for what time they plan to run the event. It will determine if I can go or not. If it's later in the evening like last year I won't be able to go because of family stuff. :/
Got any ale?

Saw in another thread that Rosie's made me chief o' th' Breakfast Club (Landroval Kin) so after (or during) Band this week, I'll go over there an invite all th' folks that want in. I'm goin t' PM Harperella, th' Leader o' th' Lonely Mountain Band, t' see if there's mebbe a way she could help us out with dyes fer our outfits. Not that I think she should, but she might be willin, we'll see. In th' meantime, I've purchased several from th' AH, but they're not all that cheap; th' Sea Blue is runnin near 300S each at buyout price. Anyways, we'll figger it out.

Thank you for the memories, Second Breakfasters! Much love to you all. ~ Crickhollow Music
oh, by th' way, t' have a character inducted into th' Breakfast Club (our Landroval Kin) y' must have passed th' Intro—meanin th' Battle fer Archet if yer a Hobbit or a Man, or Skogrim's resurrection if yer a Dwarf or a Elf. Ye'll probly be about level 7 by that time, but yer level ain't th' issue, it's gettin past th' Intro.

Far as dyes an whatnot goes, Harperella sent me a "stipend" of 5G in th' mail over in Landy, so we got that t' work with. Still, Sea Blue Dyes are goin er about 300S apiece in th AH, an Yellow fer mebbe 200. So I ain't goin t' spend none o' that til I got a good idea o' who's actually goin, an what they need. If anyone's got a Scholar over there that can help with th' Dyes, (specially if th' AH runs out) tha'd be excellent. May have enough t' buy some costume items also, too.
Be nice t' start gettin a idea o' who's intendin t' go. There's a item on th' Calendar fer June 16th, so go ahead an sign up there, usin yer Crickhollow name.

I do have a scholor over on landy as well as a alt whos warehouse and inventory is full of cosmetic items. just let me know what you may be looking for and I can help with whatever I have or I can also take one of my higher lvl toons out to collect some dye mats to make some dyes for you.
That'd be great. Dunno yet if we'll need it or not, but if y' can whip up some Sea Blue and Yellow dyes, (say, mebbe 10 o' each) then we can spend th' 5G on outfits or somethin; Can also use some of it t' pay fer dye-makin materials, so yer not havin t' spend yer own time or coin on collectin/purchasin those.
NOTE T' BAND MEMBERS: I'd like it if ye'd all use SOME yellow SOMEWHERE on yer outfit. I got no problem bein th' mostly yellow fellow, but some gloves, or a hat, or somethin, just so we all tie t'gether a bit better, wold be much appreciated. (I already have a outfit, as I took th' Festival robe an cape an dyed th' Robe yellow, an th' cape blue. Plan on findin some gloves that'll dye blue as well, t' complete it.)

Got a link here t' th' Official Infermation about this year's Weatherstock:
http://lorebook.lotro.com/wiki/Weatherstock
Everyone ought t' read it, but here's th' important stuff:
First off, th' time is goin t' be a issue fer some folks. Event starts at 4PM Server Time, and winds up about 8PM-ish. That's 11PM t' 3AM fer GMT, so I dunno if our Euro folks can stay up that late or not. Hope so, but if it's out o' reach, I understand.
Second, I was mis-informed about (or mis-understood) th' time allotment fer th' Contest. Seems we got a 3-song/12-minute limit, with th' possibility o' doin a encore, if th' crowd seems t' want one. Then, at th' end o' th' contest, all 9 bands play one last number, with th' crowd divvyin up t' stand with th' band each person liked th' best (votin with their feet as it were) t' determine th' People's Choice winner. So we'll need a total o' 5 numbers prepared.
Third, there's some concert slots t' be assigned fer bands in th' week b'fore th' Event, where bands can play a longer set, if they want to. I dunno as this'll be workable fer us, as again, our time zones make it hard fer us t' all get t'gether 'cept fer at our reglar meetin time. Dunno, we may be able t' put a 4- or 5-person ensemble t'gether fer that, but durin th' week, I probly won't be able t' do it unless its pretty late in th' evenin fer everyone else.
Anyhow, lots o' stuff t' talk about at Band Practice this week, so I hope everyone can get there.

Y' know, arithmatick was never m' favorite subject in th' schoolroom... Seems I mis-figgered them times in th' previous post. 4PM Server time is only 9PM GMT, an so th' whole thing ought t' be over somewheres around 1AM GMT. Still a bit late, mebbe, but not as bad as I'd thought at first...

It's still up in the air if I can make it or not. Usually Saturday is when I visit a friend and I'm not home till 6pm and have dinner. I would miss a bulk of it if not all of it if I'm out. :/

Hello, Breakfast Club!
I just wanted to check in with you and let you know that your "Roadie" for Weatherstock is Keli. Keli will be your primary contact for costuming and mentoring, and also arranging a "Weatherstock Concert Series" event sometime between now and Weatherstock. This event will give your band some time to play a full set, and also work out any kinks in your band before Weatherstock. You can PM Keli on Guildlaunch with the username "Keli".

Actually, I already heard from Keli, an somethin she needs t' know from us (not right away, but soon-ish) is th' Landroval names o' th' players, an th' names o' th' songs we'll be playin. So if yer still fence-sitttin, start makin up yer mind, an gettin a Minstrel started in Landroval. Y' do have t' be out o' th' Intro in order t' get t' Weathertop.
An if yer plannin on goin, don't just tell me at practice, sign up on th' Calendar, an then mail me th' name o' yer Landy Counterpart.
Thank'ee!

All righty, now th' question is: Do we want t' go over t' Landroval in th' week b'fore th' Event an do a full concert? We do have that opportunity, an if we're quick enough, we can grab a slot on Saturday th' 9th o' June around our normal meetin time (EEEp! Th' Rally is th' next day 'O.o ). But this means again that we need t' know who's goin, an them as are will need their characters out o' th' Intro a week sooner.
We'll talk about it at Practice t'morrow, but I wanted folks t' have some time t' cogitate about it.
So far, I know that Dallofin's goin t' be there, an Larkfeather, an someone whose name I unfortunately can't recall, a relative o' Lattie's. Would really like t' have 7 at least, so get yer toons made up an let me know ;)
