My Thank you posted on the Lotro Forums
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this event such a huge success!
We ended up having a much larger crowd than I expected this year with several hours of the area being layered. Not bad considering the Greenfields never have more than a few people in it at best normally.
First and foremost, I must extend my thanks to those that helped me organize such a large event which encompassed 32 performances over a three day period.
Thank you Zedrockk for the awesome posters, advertising, and streaming of the shows which are now recorded and can be found at: https://www.twitch.tv/barafunda/profile
Thank you to Chukkato, my second in command of Les Beaux Chapeaux for the sign-up website!
Thank you to Hollyberye and Geoffroi of the Lonely Mountain Band for their expertise guidance in running such a large event and for helping me keep in touch with all the different bands.
Thank you to the announcers, who helped take a huge load of work off my hands. They are: Hollyberye, Geoffroi, Miazine, Zedrockk, Lilikate, and Sholah. You folks really did make this an enjoyable event for me by giving me time to actually enjoy much of the show.
Thank you Miaga (Miazine) for spending two days growing pipeweed to hand out to the folks at the show! You were a very busy little vendor
Thank you Laerlin for hosting the Music of Middle-Earth show and for allowing us to combine it with the Day on the Greenfields Music Festival!
Last but certainly not least, thank you to all the fine outstanding bands who volunteered their time to entertain us!

Thank you to all those that have extended a thank you to me for organizing this event.....However......
I want you to thank yourselves and each other instead.
It was all of you that made this event great.
The Landroval community is by far the best gaming community in existence in my humble opinion.
Finally, I want to offer my gratitude to the good folks at Lotro/Turbine for giving us this awesome music system and to the GM's for their support.

It was a real pleasure working with you Fincin, and all the other very nice free folk that were involved. The music was fantastic and reflected a lot of hard work--that really showed. We have an abundance of great bands! We also have such a friendly and intelligent musical community :).
Thanks for letting me help a bit, I enjoyed it greatly.

Our band had a wonderful time at Music of Middle Earth and Day on the Greenfields. Thank you for making it possible to be able to showcase such talented bands. It was a lot of fun, and I know Fincin and her crew put in a lot of hours of work to make it happen. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
