Weatherstock is coming up!

Hello blog. Long time no see.

Right, now on to the news: Weatherstock returns this Saturday! The biggest show in Middle-earth! Nine bands competing for the crowd’s approval!

But there’s more…

Fortunately for those who can’t attend the big show on the 18th…or those who wish they could hear MORE than a 20 minute slot from their favorite bands…This week also features the Weatherstock Concert Series! Read all about it on the Lorebook:

The Green Hill Music Society will play at their usual time on Tuesday.

Thursday features the Hobbiton Philharmonic and the Eriador Music Society.

On Friday, Old Winyards will play for the first annual WEATHERSTOCK DANCE CONTEST! And to top it all off, the evening will end with the Ingolemo Experience from Mar Vanwa Tyalieva.

So, warm up your dancing shoes for the dance contest, and come out to the concerts for a fine preview of some of the bands who’ll be battling it out at Weatherstock on Saturday!

Late for Weatherstock

I got to Weatherstock late, with only about three bands left to play, but I have a good excuse…

My niece was born at 4:30 Saturday! Spent a few hours at the hospital welcoming her, then an hour and a half or so on the drive back to my home, so I was quite late to the party, but better to miss the first half of Weatherstock than miss holding my newborn niece.

Anyway, arriving to find a festival like Weatherstock in full swing is a bit overwhelming, so I’m afraid I will not manage a very coherent or at least a very thorough report on it, but I did manage to get some pictures. Mostly on the lowest graphics settings, though – my computer crashes often enough when I overdo the screenshots, and I wanted to take no chances on having to restart the game in the middle of a band’s performance!
