And now for a Long-Expected Announcement! There is to be an Event of Special Magnificence! Perhaps you have already heard the rumors?
Perhaps you have heard of another special event ... Weatherstock? Well, this event isn't going to be like that one at all. Weatherstock is still six months away, anyway.
This event will be held this coming January, when it is snowy. It will be held over the weekend of January 17th through the 20th on the Landroval server, to be precise. Our Dwarven hosts would want me to be precise about that. Yes, yes, Dwarven hosts ... the event will be held at wintry Thorin's Gate!
There shall be music!
There shall be ale!
And there shall be pie ... of course!
And there shall be snow!
Did I mention music?
Did I mention the name of the event?
Silly me ... Can someone give me a drum-roll, please?
This Event of Special Magnificence ... is entitled ... The *WINTERSTOCK* Music Festival! Hosted by the Lonely Mountain Band.
