thewayneIn Lord of the Rings Online you can form guilds, or as they're known in-game, Kinships. A collection of friends who like to get together to go forth and squish beasties. And after kinships have been around for a certain period of time, they can purchase kinship houses, virtual real estate.
This one guy in-game regularly hosts parties at his kinship house where a half-dozen bands or so show up and play music. People who don't play music, or do and aren't playing music at that time or don't feel like playing music that night, stand around and enjoy it or dance or whatever.
I played for NINE HOURS LAST NIGHT! From 6:30pm (local) to almost 3:30AM!
It was so much fun!
We played Led Zeppelin for over an hour, later Pink Floyd for over half an hour, I played a few Tull pieces, broke into some Lady Gaga and also played It's Raining Men, a Devo piece, etc. I was the second band to start and the second to last to leave.
And I am TIRED this morning!
While I was working on converting music last week, doing a bunch of Tull, I did this one piece and found out it was 43 minutes long! It was an entire album! No, not Thick As A Brick, it was the following album: A Passion Play. I'm going to play it in-game Monday or Wednesday night. I think this week I'm going to work on expanding my collection of Floyd and Zepp, I only have four of each.
This is a fantastic social event for these times! I just hope some characters don't suddenly go permanently silent over the coming weeks.
